Calcium-Based Stabilizer Induced Heave in Oklahoma Sulfate-Bearing Soils (FHWA-OK-11-03 2210)
Cerato, Amy B.; Miller, Gerald A. (2011-7)The addition of lime stabilizers can create problems in soils containing sulfates. In most cases, lime is mixed with expansive soils rendering them non-expansive; however, when a certain amount of sulfate is present naturally ... -
Evaluation and Field Verification of Strength and Structural Improvement of Chemically Stabilized Subgrade Soil (FHWA-OK-07-09 2195)
Snethen, Donald R.; Miller, Gerald A.; Cerato, Amy B. (2007-7)Often subgrade soils exhibit properties, particularly strength and/or volume change properties that limit their performance as a support element for pavements. Typical problems include shrink-swell, settlement, collapse, ... -
Interpretation of In Situ Tests as Affected by Soil Suction / Gerald A. Miller, Rodney W. Collins, Kanthasamy K. Muraleetharan, Amy B. Cerato, Roy Doumet.
Miller, Gerald A.; Collins, Rodney W.; Muraleetharan, Kanthasamy K.; Cerato, Amy B.; Doumet, Roy (Oklahoma City, OK : Oklahoma Department of Transportation, 2015., 2015-12)In situ testing of soil with invasive methods such as the Cone Penetration Test (CPT) are increasingly used in geotechnical engineering practice. However, there has been very little work to develop methods for interpreting ... -
REAL TIME MONITORING OF SLOPE STABILITY IN EASTERN OKLAHOMA
Cerato, Amy B.; Hong, Yang; Yu, Xiado; He, Xiaogang; Tabet, Wassim (2014-1)There were three primary objectives of the proposed research. The first was to establish a comprehensive landslide database, the second was to create a first- cut regional landslide map and the third was to relate safe and ... -
The Effects of Soil Suction on Shallow Slope Stability / Gerald A. Miller, Amy B. Cerato, Arash Hassanikhah, Maryam Varsei, Roy Doumet, Celine Bourasset, Rifat Bulut
Miller, Gerald A.; Cerato, Amy B.; Hassanikhah, Arash; Varsei, Maryam; Doumet, Roy; Bourasset, Celine; Bulut, Rifat (Oklahoma City, OK : Oklahoma Department of Transportation, 2015., 2015-12)Research work described in this report was undertaken to improve understanding of desiccation cracking and shallow slope failures in clayey slopes subjected to seasonal variations in weather. Research involved field and ... -
VALIDATION AND REFINEMENT OF CHEMICAL STABILIZATION PROCEDURES FOR PAVEMENT SUBGRADE SOILS IN OKLAHOMA – VOLUME II (FHWA-OK-11-02(2))
Miller, Gerald A.; Cerato, Amy B.; Snethen, Donald (2011-10)For projects involving a chemically stabilized layer as a part of the structural design of the pavement, it is typical to conduct a mix design to assess the additive content needed to achieve a certain unconfined compressive ... -
VALIDATION AND REFINEMENT OF CHEMICAL STABILIZATION PROCEDURES FOR PAVEMENT SUBGRADE SOILS IN OKLAHOMA – VOLUME I FINAL REPORT (FHWA-OK-11-02 2207)
Cerato, Amy B.; Miller, Gerald A.; Snethen, Donald; Hussey, Nicholas (2011-7)Additions of byproduct chemicals, such as fly ash or cement kiln dust, have been shown to increase the unconfined compression strength (UCS) of soils. To be considered effective, the soil must exhibit a strength increase ...
