Evidence of stabilised peat as a net carbon sink
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019-01-09)Mass stabilization, a ground improvement solution used for construction in peatlands, involves mixing suitable dry binders into the peat, increasing strength and stiffness and reducing permeability. A previous pilot study ... -
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 ... -
Stabilisation for peat improvement: Extent of carbonation and environmental implications
(Elsevier, 2020-06-13)The construction industry is a large contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions. In recent years, the industry has begun to consider sustainability alongside technical merit, cost and programme when analysing construction ...
