A durability experimental study of lightweight soil subjected to wetting-drying cycles and sodium sulfate soaking
cement and geopolymer are added to lightweight soil as binders. For the purpose of comparison
unconfined compressive strength test is conducted to evaluate the effects of wetting-drying cycles and sodium sulfate soaking on the strength properties of lightweight cement stabilized clay(LCSC) and lightweight geopolymer stabilized clays(LGSC). The change of unconfined compressive strength and mass loss with wetting-drying cycles and sodium sulfate soaking are discussed. The results show that the values of unconfined compressive strength of LGSC are 2 times that of LCSC under the standard curing condition. Upon wetting-drying cycles
the unconfined compressive strength of LGSC decreases more rapidly than that of LCSC. Compared with LCSC
the wetting-drying durability of LGSC is weaker. After sulfate solution soaking for 120 days
unconfined compressive strength of LGSC declines slightly. However the surface of LCSC cracks. Compared with LCSC
the wetting-drying durability of LGSC is stronger.
