Abstract

The influences of cement type, cement content, and curing time on the unconfined compression strength (UCS) of soil-cement were investigated. The influence of groundwater on UCS of soil-cement was also studied. The experimental results indicate that the soil treated with high grade cement presents a higher UCS. Additionally, the UCS of soil-cement presents linearly increased with the cement content. A logarithm correlation between UCS and curing time presents to forecast the strength development. Compared with the UCS of samples immersed in distilled water, those immersed in groundwater present a higher value.
