Sustainable Infrastructure Development 🌟
We are thrilled to announce the recent open-access publication, “Evaluation of Locally Available Calcined Clay-Based Geopolymer for the Stabilization of Expansive Soils,” in the Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board by Sopharith Chou, EIT, Nripojyoti Biswas, Anand Puppala, Oscar Huang, and Miladin Radovic. The study explores the use of locally sourced calcined clay-based Geopolymers (GPs) as a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to conventional stabilizers for expansive soils. Our comprehensive research, which includes comparative analyses, extensive lab studies, and microstructural examinations, reveals significant improvements in soil strength, durability, and stiffness when treated with GPs. These findings not only demonstrate the potential of using local resources for soil stabilization but also mark a pivotal step towards more sustainable infrastructure development.
