Evaluation of the structural performance of low carbon concrete (2022)
Journal Article

Evaluation of the effect of embodied carbon reduction using an optimized design section for a ground beam, use of supplementary cementitious materials, and replacement of normal aggregate with light weight aggregate on the mechanical properties of lo...

Optimisation of embodied carbon and compressive strength in low carbon concrete (2022)
Journal Article

To improve the prediction of compressive strength and embodied carbon of low carbon concrete using a program algorithm developed in MATLAB, 84 datasets of concrete mix raw materials were used. The influence of water, silica fume and ground granular b... Read More about Optimisation of embodied carbon and compressive strength in low carbon concrete.

Shear response of Lime/GGBS-Stabilised High-Sulphate-Bearing Clay under consolidated-undrained conditions (2022)
Journal Article

This study investigated the consolidated undrained shear behaviour of a stabilised high-sulphate soil system. Lime was used to stabilise the soil with the inclusion of ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) as an ettringite suppressor. Both volu...

Performance of sustainable road pavements founded on clay subgrades treated with eco-friendly cementitious materials (2022)
Journal Article

Clays encountered during road construction are mostly weak and result in major pavement failures due to their low California bearing ratio (CBR) and high swelling potential. In this study, sustainable and eco-friendly waste materials including brick...

Using Artificial Intelligence techniques to predict intrinsic compressibility characteristic of Clay (2022)
Journal Article

Reconstituted clays have often provided the basis for the interpretation and modelling of the properties of natural clays. The term “intrinsic” was introduced to describe a clay remoulded or reconstituted at moisture content up to 1.5 times its liqui...

A systematic review on the effectiveness of remediation methods for oil contaminated soils (2022)
Journal Article

There is no doubt that several soil remediation methods have been applied in removing oil contaminants in the soil. Selecting an appropriate method is critical for effective cleanup of a contaminated site. The aim of this study is to review field stu...

Road pavement defect investigation using treated and untreated expansive road subgrade materials with varying plasticity index (2022)
Journal Article

Road pavement defect has been a major issue in the construction industry leading to a high cost of maintenance and sometimes a total reconstruction of the road. Expansive road subgrade materials are one of the major causes of these road defects. In t...

The use of fine portions from construction and demolition waste for expansive soil stabilization: A review (2022)
Journal Article

Construction and demolition waste (CDW) are the largest waste products in the world today and competes as a viable recycled additive material in place of natural aggregates. Due to the increase in compressive strength of different mix proportions of...

Strength predictive modelling of soils treated with calcium-based additives blended with eco-friendly pozzolans—A machine learning approach (2022)
Journal Article

The unconfined compressive strength (UCS) of a stabilised soil is a major mechanical parameter in understanding and developing geomechanical models, and it can be estimated directly by either lab testing of retrieved core samples or remoulded samples...

DMRB flexible road pavement design using re-engineered expansive road subgrade materials with varying plasticity index (2022)
Journal Article

Pavement thickness is a very vital component during the design stage of a road construction project. Pavement design helps to determine the costs of the project over a certain period to ascertain how the cost of road pavement construction affect the...

Road pavement thickness and construction depth optimization using treated and untreated artificially-synthesized expansive road subgrade materials with varying plasticity index (2022)
Journal Article

Road pavement thickness and their depth of construction take a chunk of the overall cost of road construction. This has called for a need for reduced road pavement thickness by improving the engineering properties of subgrade such as the California b...
