The construction industry’s current dependence on primary aggregates is unsustainable as these are non-renewable resources and the consumption of these materials has a high environmental impact. The global annual production of primary aggregates is

The functioning of modern societies relies on the successful performance of their infrastructure. In the UK, much of the buried infrastructure is located below the road surface, and routine maintenance of these requires networks to be accessed, commo

Transporting of extremely large indivisible loads (10 000–30 000 t) is becoming increasingly popular to allow offsite modular construction of infrastructure for oil and gas, mining, and renewable energy projects in remote areas. Such exceptionally

Off-site prefabrication can bring cost, quality and programme benefits to construction projects but often requires the transportation of large, indivisible loads (in the order of 1000–10 000 t) on temporary routes that can cross soft soils. Through

The deformation behaviour of cement-bentonite (CB) materials used in low-permeability cut-off walls is critical to the performance of these barriers on site. While a number of investigations have focused on the deformation behaviour of CB materials,

Extraction of resources in remote locations can require temporary haul roads to transport extremely large, slow-moving, indivisible loads (e.g., plant, oil–gas production modules, and reactors, weighing in excess of 1000 t) without interruptions. P

This study demonstrates the use of Multi-channel Analysis of Surface Waves (MASW) to measure changes in Rayleigh wave velocity relating to both the initial trench construction and subsequent simulated failures (water leaks) of a buried water-pipe. Th

Time domain reflectometry (TDR) can be used to measure the dry density of compacted soils, although it is believed that TDR could also be used to monitor the long-term performance of aging ...

Cement bentonite (CB) barriers are self-supporting, low permeability, structures used to retard groundwater flow and as such strength and hydraulic conductivity parameters are often stipulated when developing the mixtures. This paper reports an inves
