The Effect of Cracks on Unsaturated Flow and Volume Change Properties of Expansive Clays and Impacts on Foundation Performance
abstract: The primary objective of this study is to understand the effect of soil cracking on foundation performance for expansive soil profiles. Two major effects of cracks were studied to assess the effect of cracks on foundation performance. First, the effect of cracks on soil volume change respo...
