Stabilisation of a dredged marine sediment: geotechnical and contaminant leaching properties
(Civil Engineering Research in Ireland CERI, 2018-08-29)
In this paper, contaminated sediment dredged from a commercial harbour in Ireland was stabilized using Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) alone and in combination with Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS). The engineering ...
Blackpool South Strategy project: analysis of pipe-jacking records
(Civil Engineering Research in Ireland CERI, 2018-08-29)
In recent years, there has been an increased resort to microtunnelling/pipe-jacking as a means of constructing underground conduits (for water, sewage, gas and other utilities) to avoid on-street disruption in urban areas. ...
Laboratory Push-In Resistance Tests (PIRT) in a cement-stabilised pseudo-fibrous peat
(Civil Engineering Research in Ireland CERI, 2018-08-29)
Deep dry soil mixing (DDSM) is a form of ground improvement in which dry binders are injected and mixed in
situ, forming individual columns, rows or interlocking panels, thereby improving the geotechnical characteristics ...
Unsaturated behaviour of a stabilized marine sediment: A comparison of cement and GGBS binders
(Elsevier, 2018-09-21)
In order to ascertain the contaminant-encapsulation potential of stabilized soil, an understanding of its unsaturated hydraulic behaviour, specifically the Soil Water Retention Curve (SWRC), is paramount. In this paper, ...

Flipped learning in a civil engineering module: student and instructor experiences
(Irish Learning Technology Association, 2018-08-24)
Flipped learning is a form of active learning in which the basic content is assimilated before scheduled classroom sessions, enabling more productive use of classroom time to cultivate problem-solving ability, a key ...
