Impact of relative humidity on the mechanical behavior of compacted earth as a building material (2016, background): “adding a binder, 69 concrete or lime) on the mechanical behavior of the material [19]–[23], which are shown to be often 70 responsible for an increase of the compression strength and a reduction of the impact of water on the 71 mechanical behavior.”
Prediction of the unconfined compressive strength of stabilised soil by Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and Non-Linear Regression (NLR) (2019, result): “Several previous researches state that the chemical reactions involving the exchange and cementing action of Portland cement with cohesive soil are similar to that of lime (Croft 1967, Kézdi 1979, Bushra Suhail and Abbase 2015).”
Characterization of the mechanical and physical properties of unstabilized rammed earth: A review (2020, methodology): “The Modified Proctor test uses higher compaction energy so the OMC obtained is slightly lower, which, according to some authors [55,56] would be closer to the compaction effort applied in the construction of a real wall by mechanics means.”
