Research on Physical-Mechanical Property of Reshaped Loess Contaminated by Acid

Abstract:

With the rapid development of process of industrialization in Inner Mongolia, the environmental pollution, such as phenomenon of regional acid rain is gradually increasing. The Quaternary loess spread widely in Inner Mongolia. The ecological environment must be affected the intrusion acid rain. Meanwhile the physical-mechanical properties of original loess also are significantly influenced by the acid rain. To investigate the influence of acid rain on the physical-mechanical properties of loess, a series of triaxial tests in laboratory are carried out. The results showed that changes of PH value has significant effect on the specific gravity of soil grain, the limit moisture content , maximum dry density, and strength characteristics of loess.
