Granular column is an attractive mitigation method which is widely used in geotechnical engineering to enhance the bearing capacity, reduce settlement and accelerate consolidation. Utilisation of industrial wastes such as steel slag in soil stabilization can be an environment-friendly and cost-effective extraction technique to the disposal of solid waste materials. Previous studies investigated the bearing capacity and settlement of ground improved with granular columns with or without the geosynthetic encasement. However, very limited number of studies have investigated the response of ordinary stone columns without encasement and geosynthetic encased steel slag columns under lateral loading. In this paper, the lateral load capacity of steel slag granular column-soil composites has been investigated. For this purpose, a series of large direct shear tests were performed on the column-soil composites with the steel slag column and the ordinary stone column with or without the geosynthetic encasement. The effect of type of column materials (steel slag and sand), column diameter, number of columns, columns arrangement, and geosynthetic encasement on the shear strength parameters of column-soil composites have been studied. The experimental results show the effectiveness of using the steel slag columns to improve the lateral load-bearing performance of soil. |
