    Abstract: Soils viable for engineering works needs to attain certain strength properties in order to serve its intended purpose. Some available soil like Black Cotton Soil tends to show weakness in strength which necessitate it to be modified so that the desired strength can be achieved, this can be executed using materials that could improve the soil proper...

    Abstract: Most executed public building projects in Nigeria have a difference between their tender/initial contract sum and final contract sum, and this difference is often caused by variations. Where not properly handled, variations lead to delays, dispute and sometimes project abandonment. The effects of cost of variations on the delivery of public buildin... Show More

    Abstract: Most studies in geotechnical engineering have focused on soil behavior under low pressures, low stress levels which are typically encountered in many geotechnical projects. But high stresses can lead to particle breakage of even the strongest soil minerals. In addition, many weak-grained soils, such as decomposed granites, carbonate sands, and volc... Show More

    Abstract: When the concrete waste is recycled as the aggregate, the concrete waste is generally carried to the plant and the recycled aggregate is manufactured. However, in this method it needs significantly much energy and causes much CO2 when the concrete waste is carried to the plant. Therefore, it is need to consider about environment to study on recycli... Show More
