Physicochemical Evaluation of Soil-Cement by X-Ray Fluorescence: Percentage-Based Data
Donzala D. Some, Takenori Hino, Hirofumi Usui, and Mathiro J. Sindete
Cement Deep mixing method applied in Lowland areas, is mostly set to a value of water-cement ratio equal to one (W/C =
1.0). Also, W/C is determined based on empirical experience so far, and Engineers seem reluctant to increase the amount of water
(W/C > 1). They have concerns over the possibility of insufficient mechanical strength of imp(...)
