    • The effect of curing conditions on the hydromechanical properties of a metakaolin-based soilcrete 

      Spagnoli, Giovanni; Romero Morales, Enrique Edgar; Fraccica, Alessandro; Arroyo Alvarez de Toledo, Marcos; Gómez Bonilla, Rodrigo Andrés (Thomas Telford, 2022-05)
      Article
      Open Access
      An attractive approach to reduce the carbon dioxide footprint of deep soil mixing (DSM) is to replace Portland cement-based binders by geopolymers based on metakaolin. Safe design requires a good understanding of the ...

    • THMC modelling of jet grouting 

      Gesto Beiroa, José Manuel; Gens Solé, Antonio; Arroyo Alvarez de Toledo, Marcos (2013)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      A framework for the study of the jet-grouting hydration reaction and of the associated thermo-hydro-mechanical and chemical (THMC) interactions with the surrounding soils has been developed. In this work, we summarize the ...

    • Unconfined compressive strength of sand-fines mixtures treated with chemical grouts 

      Spagnoli, Giovanni; Seidl, W.; Romero Morales, Enrique Edgar; Arroyo Alvarez de Toledo, Marcos; Gómez Bonilla, Rodrigo Andrés; López López, José (CRC Press, 2021)

      Ground improvement by grouting is one of the methods applicable to solve problems connected to foundations, open cut excavations and tunnelling. The improvement of soils is in terms of reduced permeability and increased ...

    • Use of Innovative Shotcrete-Tube Technology in Excavation Mechanism Instead of Bentonite Clay Cycling 

      Shahabi, Shahriar; Liravi, Hassan; Moradi, Tabasom (2013)
      Article
      Open Access
      Nowadays excavations are mostly performed with bentonite clay cycling which is so inappropriate in economical and timing issues of projects.In this method introduced, all unwanted machinery and constructions are limited ...

    • Wireless monitoring for cliff stabilization at La Clua (Pre-Pyrenees, Spain) 

      Abanco Martínez de Arenzana, Claudia; Raïmat, Carles; Perez Arcas, J. (International Centre for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE), 2017)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      La Clua is a village at the foot of a conglomerate cliff (Pre-Pyrenees, Spain), eventually af-fected by rockfalls. After last big event, in 2009, that affected a house of the village, a rope net was installed to protect ...
