Engineering Characteristics of the Lightweight Air-Mixed Soil (LWS) Containing Silty Marine Sediment

This study was conducted to find out the characteristics of the lightweight air-mixed soil (LWS) used for a road embankment. Compressive strength, permeability, and capillary height of the LWS were studied, and to support these studies, its inside structure was analyzed in detail. Various size air pores exist in the LWS, and their distribution with a location is almost constant. Numerous tiny cracks formed by different grain sizes between in-situ soil (silty marine sediment) and solidificator exist inside the air pores so that the LWS can be affected by water. Peak strength of the LWS is found to be less dependent on the water, but the behavior of strength-strain was affected by water. Permeability is a little bit higher than clay's permeability. Capillary rise is rapid in the beginning of the test, and then slows down. The capillary rise can increase the density of the LWS, and thus requires special attention during design and maintenance of the structures, which were constructed with the LWS.
