Abstract

This paper presents a new kind of material for use in highway embankments in the soft soil of the Yangzi River delta. The experimental study was carried out first to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed material, using different mixtures of river sand, cement and expanded polystyrene beads. This was confirmed by numerical modeling which indicated both its suitability as regards strength and a reduced settlement compared with the general lime stabilized soil embankments. The environmental advantage is that it utilized river sand which has to be removed to retain the profile of the river bed.
