A Framework for Interpreting Lateral Swelling Pressure in Unsaturated Expansive Soils

Lateral swelling pressure (LSP) develops when expansive soil volume increment associated with water infiltration is restrained in a confined domain, for example, due to construction of civil infrastructure. In this paper, initially a flowchart is developed to highlight various key factors that influ...
