Investigating the hydro-mechanical behaviour of unsaturated sand-bentonite mixtures using suction-controlled triaxial test

Soil improvement is often done through mixing the granular soils with fine-grained materials to obtain densified soil matrix and eventually increase the bearing capacity of the soil. In this paper, sand was mixed with three different quantities of bentonite. Then, the hydromechanical behaviour of sa...
