Definitions
- the present invention relates to the method of reducing the swelling pressure of the expansive soils by reinforcing it with the granular piles. Another objective of the present invention is to determine the expansive pressure of the soil with or without using the granular pile structure.
- Expansive soil deposits occur in the arid and semi arid region of the world. They cover a major portion of the geographical area of the world and about one fifth the area of India (approximately 3, 00,000 sq. km.). In India, such soils are popularly recognized as black cotton soils and are found extensively in Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. These are problematic to engineering structures because of their tendency to heave during wet season and shrink during dry season. They lie in top about 4.0 meter depth in most places and exhibit swell-shrink behavior owing to fluctuating water content. During swelling phase, if expansion of soil is prevented, it causes tremendous pressure and may severely damage the structure particularly the lightly loaded one.
- the expansive soils can swell by over 10 and exhibit swelling pressure in the general range of 10,000 psf to 30,000 psf (480 kPa to 1440 kPa). Values of swelling pressure as high as 58,000 psf (2780 kPa) have also been measured.
- the swelling pressure exerted by the soil depends on the type and amount of clay mineral, degree of saturation, initial void ratio and conduciveness for ingress of water. During swelling phase the soil looses strength too and behaves like soft material. Due to the above reasons construction on or using expansive soils is considered to be unsafe. Many techniques and methods have been developed to improve engineering properties of such soils. These include soil stabilization using lime, cement and other admixtures, use of Cohesive Non-Swelling (CNS) layer etc. The available solutions have limited applicability and a single versatile solution is yet to be developed.
- the granular pile in a soil may be installed at any time (or in any season) of the year. In casethey are installed in partially saturated condition of the soil, which is a quite obvious situation, their influence on the swelling of the soil is yet not very clear.
- the initial moisture content in the soil and the property of the granular pile material will certainly influence the swelling of the compound ground. Further, the spacing between the piles is expected to influence the pile behavior, hence a systematic study on the influence of above factors on swelling of the composite ground needs to be carried out.
- Expansivity of the Soil Expansive soils have predominantly clay mineral montmorillonite.
- the other clay minerals in expansive soils are kaolinite and the illite. The behavior of these minerals are widely different, hence expansive soils of different origins behave differently.
- the unit cell of a montmorillonite mineral consists of an alumina octahedral sheet sandwiched between two silicate sheets. The bonding between the adjacent unit cells of montmorillonite mineral is through very weak van der Waals' force which absorb huge amount of water on wetting and hence the soil loses its strength and shows large swelling.
- the degree of expansivity of a fine-grained soil can be known by a term Free Swell Index (FSI) defined by
- Vd is the equilibrium sediment volume of 10 g of oven dry soil passing 425 ⁇ sieve placed in a 100 ml graduated measuring jar containing distilled water
- Vk is the equilibrium sediment volume of lOg of oven-dried soil passing through a 425 ⁇ sieve placed in a 100ml graduated measuring jar containing kerosene.
- FSR Free Swell Ratio
- Table 2.1 shows the classification of expansive soils based on various index properties as per IS: 1498-1970 and based on the free-swell ratio of Sridharan and Prakash (2000).
- Both the black cotton soils and the bentonite have predominant clay mineral montmorrilonite. Whereas most of the black cotton soils of India fall in soil group III A and IIIB, bentonite comes in soil group IIIC.
- the swelling characteristic of a soil is also expressed by a term swelling potential and by swelling pressure.
- Swelling potential is defined as a percentage of swell of a laterally confined sample in an odometer test which is soaked under surcharge load of 7kPa after being compacted to maximum dry density at optimum moisture content (IS: 2720-1977 (PartXLI). By the same test swelling pressure can also be known. It is defined as the pressure required for preventing volume expansion in the odometer.
- Indian black cotton soils have clay content values ranging from 30 to 45%, silt content 40 to 60%, sand content 5 to 20%, liquid limit 40 to 85%, plastic limit ranging from 20 to 40%, plasticity index 15 to 45, shrinkage limit from 10 to 15% and free swell index from 30 to 130%, and the swelling pressure from 50 to 200 kN/m 2 .
- Factors affecting swelling The swelling pressure of an expansive soil is not a unique property but is influenced by a number of factors, such as, the initial density and water content, method of compaction, soil structure, availability of water, electrolyte concentration in the water, confining surcharge and the specimen size. The higher the initial dry density, the greater is the swelling pressure.
- soils that contains active clay minerals like montmoriUonite and vermiculate show high swelling. They have more capacity of cation exchange and specific surface and therefore exhibit high swelling. Larger ion concentration in pore water suppresses diffuse double layers, reducing the heave. Soil suction, is related to saturation, pore size and shape, surface tension, electrical and chemical characteristics of soil particles and water, represented by negative pore pressure in unsaturated soils and results in swelling.
- Compaction changes soil fabric and structure.
- a soil compacted at high water content has dispersed structure has low swell potential than the one compacted at lower water contents.
- Higher density indicates closer particle spacing, greater repulsive forces between particle and larger swelling potential.
- the swelling pressure is also dependent on the method of testing. Two methods namely constant volume method and consolidometer method are suggested in IS 2720 (Part XLI) - 1977. Both the methods use consolidometer. Further, the field swelling pressure may significantly be different than that obtained from laboratory test (IS: 2720-1977 (PartXLI)).
- Granular pile technique The granular piles are nothing but vertical pile i.e. columnar elements formed below the ground level with compacted and un-cemented granular material (i.e. stone fragments or gravels or sand). These load bearing piles usually penetrate through the weak strata.
- the construction of granular pile involves partial replacement or lateral compaction of unsuitable or loose subsurface soils with a compacted vertical pile of granular materials such as sand, stone, stone chips with sand etc.
- the presence of the piles creates a composite material which is stiffer and stronger than the original soil. They improve the performance of foundation by reducing the settlement and increasing the load carrying capacity. They also increase the time rate of consolidation.
- Granular pile is now well established ground improvement technique and is widely practiced since last four decades to improve the soft and compressible soil deposits ranging from soft clay to loose silty sand. They are reported to be most effective in clayey soils with undrained shear strength ranging from 7-50 kPa.
- Unit Cell Concept in a ground reinforced with granular piles, it is not necessary to analyse the group of piles, as all the piles behave in similar manner (except those which are near the loaded area). It means if the behavior of a single pile is known, the load carrying capacity of the entire area can be known. Each pile acts as unit cell; where the influence of one pile ceases that of surrounding pile starts.
- the pile spacing may broadly range from 2 to 3 times the granular pile diameter depending upon the site conditions, loading pattern, the installation technique, settlement tolerances, etc. For large projects, it is desirable to carry out field trials to determine the most optimum spacing of granular piles taking into consideration the required bearing capacity of the soil and permissible settlement of the foundation.
- Granular piles should be installed preferably in an equilateral triangular pattern which gives the densest packing, although a square pattern may also be used.
- a typical layout in an equilateral triangular pattern and square pattern are shown in Fig. 2.3, IS 15284(Part-
- the resulting equivalent cylinder of material having a diameter D e enclosing the tributary soil and one granular pile, is known as unit cell (Fig 2.4).
- the granular pile is concentric to the exterior boundary of the unit cell (Fig. 2.5).
- Granular Blanket Irrespective of the method used to construct the granular pile, the blanket laid over the top of the piles should consist of clean medium to coarse sand compacted in layers to a relative density of 75 to 80 percent.
- minimum thickness of the compacted sand blanket should be 0.5 m. This blanket should be exposed to atmosphere at its periphery for pore water pressure dissipation.
- Code also specifies that after ensuring complete removal of slush deposited during boring operations, a minimum depth of 0.5 m, preferably 0.75 m below the granular blanket should be compacted by other suitable means, such as rolling/tamping to the specified densification criteria.
- the load capacity of the granular pile further increases by encasing the granular pile by geogrid.
- the ultimate load of clay bed reinforced with encased granular pile is increased about 4.5 to 4.8 times the ultimate load in plane clay bed.
- Aparna et al. (2014) have observed reduction in swelling by using granular pile/sand column at different water content. They conducted tests to study the effect of sand column size on swelling of expansive soil.
- the sand columns of diameters 25mm, 37.5mm and 50mm were made in black cotton soil test beds in a cylindrical mould of diameter 100mm and height 125mm.
- the test beds were prepared at different water contents (14, 18, 22, 26,30,36,40 and 44% by weight of dry soil) keeping the dry density of the soil as constant.
- the soil with sand column was submerged and the swelling of the composite material was observed.
- the test results show that the presence of sand column in the expansive black cotton soil reduces the swelling. The reduction in swelling depends on the size of the sand column and the initial moisture content in the soil.
- a column of diameter 50mm reduces swelling more than the smaller ones.
- the stone columns of diameters 25mm, 37.5mm and 50mm have shown reduction in swelling by 11.5%, 23% and 42% respectively in comparison to that exhibited by the raw soil.
- the soil with high initial moisture content shows less swelling than that with low initial moisture content.
- no swelling was observed in the soil.
- the expansive soil reinforced with sand columns can be made volumetrically stable.
- the reason for reduction in swelling was reported mainly due to replacement of expansive soil by non-expansive sand and saturation of soil.

- the swelling pressure of expansive soil depends on various factors such as the dry density, degree of saturation, overburden pressure, type of clay mineral, equilibrium moisture content etc.
- granular piles may be installed during any time of the year and this will affect swelling of the composite ground i.e. the natural expansive soil reinforced with granular pile.
- the tests were planned in steel moulds of different sizes. The details of the experimental work are as follows.
- the materials used in the investigation consist of six soils having different swelling behavior and the sand.
- the natural soil is the black cotton soil available in MANITcampus, Bhopal. To this soil commercially available bentonite is mixed in different proportions to obtain artificial soils. Table 3.1 describes designation of these soils and the amount of bentonite mixed in each of them.
- the soils are classified as per (IS: 1498-1970). They all fall in CH i.e. clay of high plasticity and compressibility group. They are also classified according to FSR, as suggested by Sridharan and Prakash (2000). The basic properties of the soils are presented in Table 3.2 and classification as per FSR is given in Table 3.3.
- the sand used in the present study has been taken from the river Narmada, passing through a nearby town,Hoshangabad (M.P., India). It was dried in sun and sieved through 4.75 mm IS sieve.The particles larger than 4.75 mm size had been removed.
- the tests conducted on the sand in the laboratory were sieve analysis, specific gravity, minimum and maximum dry unit weight test (IS: 2720 (Part 14)-1983).
- the grain size distribution curve of the sand is shown in Fig. 3.2and other relevant properties are given in Table 3.4.
- the sand is identified as SP i.e. poorly graded sand asper (IS: 1498- 1970).
- the test setup consists of a loading frame, having arrangement for applying load on the soil sample manually through a proving ring, test mould and other accessories for preparing the test sample as shown in Fig. 3.3.
- the accessories were the hollow cylindrical pipes (steel pipes), rammer, tamping rod, perforated plates, dial gauge, porous plates, filter papers, andwater bath.
- the diameters of the moulds were selected in such a way that the requirement of s/d ratio equal to 2, 3 and 4 is complied with for triangular pattern of granular pile installation as per the criteria specified in unit cell concept.
- the height of a mould was fixed as five times the diameter of the pile to satisfy the critical length criteria.
- a granular pile should have length equal to or more than critical length for developing full limiting axial stress in it and as per this code this value should be nearly four times the pile diameter.
- Mitra and Chattopadhyay (1999) suggested it to be 4.5 times the pile diameter.
- Steel pipes wereused to construct granular piles of different diameters.
- the outer diameters of steel pipes were 25 mm, 32 mm, and 48mm and thickness of the pipes was 2 mm.
- Two steel rods have been welded at top of a pipe for its easy handling for making hole in the clay bed.
- a steel rod was used for compaction of the sand in the sand column.
- the diameter of the rod is 15 mm and length 750 mm.
- the load on entire area of specimen was applied through a mild steel circular plate having perforations in it.
- the diameter of the plate was equal to the diameter of mould and it was 20mm thick.
- the proving ring of capacity 2.5 kN was used. Top portion of proving ring was attached with the moving rod that was attached to the loading frame. The other end of the proving ring was attached to the perforated plate by a rod.
- a dial gauge was used to measure movement of the soil. The least count of it was 0.01 mm.
- Filter Papers Two filter papers were used for every sample, one at the top of the soil sample and the other at the bottom.
- the required quantity of dry soil (clay) and the water was taken.
- the water was thoroughly mixed to the soil and it was left covered for four days so that the water was uniformly distributed in the entire mass.
- a thin coat of grease was applied along the inner surface of mould wall to reduce the friction between clay and the tank wall.
- the moist soil was then filled in the mould in layers of about 40 mm thick. Each layer was compacted uniformly using steel rammer. Care was taken to ensure that no significant air voids were left out in the test bed.
- the s/d ratio in this test series was 3.
- the granular pile of diameter 35 mm was constructed in a mould of diameter 100 mm and height equal to 160mm.
- the swelling pressure of the composite soil bed and that without pile is given in Table 4.2 for all the six soils. Test results for each soil are depicted separately through Figs 4.7 to 4.12.
