Experimental Study on Capability of EPS Beads-Mixed Lightweight Soil

Abstract:

At present, system research on performance of the physics, deformation, strength and other properties of light mixed soil already exists in China, but the study on permeability is just in the initial stage and the system study on permeability of EPS beads-mixed lightweight soil is lack of, therefore, it is necessary to study the permeability of EPS beads-mixed lightweight soil. This article draw some reliable conclusions which include the permeability of EPS beads-mixed lightweight soil decreases with the increasing of curing age and cement ratio, and decreasing of EPS beads ratio and particle size and the cement ratio has quadratic polynomial function relationship when EPS beads ratio has linear relationship, by analyzing the effects of curing age, cement ratio, EPS beads ratio and particle size. The paper proposes multiple linear regression equation, considering the relationship of lightweight soil permeability between EPS particles and cement ratio. These will do good to the application of the practice engineering.
