An investigation into the effects of salt water on geotechnical properties, compressive and shear strength characteristics of fine-grained soil
This study examines the effect of water salinity levels on the mechanical geotechnical properties of clay-rich soil. Laboratory tests were conducted on a set of soil samples with varying salinity levels, including unconfined compressive strength (UCS), Atterberg limits, oedometer, and direct shear tests. The conducted...
