River Soil & Sand Solidified Blocks as Ballast in Beach Protection

Abstract:

This paper deals with the feasibility of beach protection project alternative materials - the Yangtze River soil and sand, applies PCSB curing agent to solidify it and to produce beach protection blocks. Experimental studies on the performance of strength, setting time, stability and anti-erosion have been carried out to inquire into the regularity of solidification. Using soil and sand curing blocks instead of concrete blocks in the application of Yangtze River beach protection engineering has advantages of technology, economy and environment protection etc.
