DOI: 10.1520/gtj20170215
Abstract: Compacted clay is widely used to control seepage in earth and rock-fill dams in favor of its low permeability. The clay at certain locations of dams often experience large shear strain due to differential settlement,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19127248
Abstract: Compacted clay covers (CCCs) are effective in restricting the upward migration of volatile organic compound (VOC) and semi-volatile organic compound (SVOC) vapors released mainly from unsaturated contaminated soils and hence mitigate the risks to human… read more here.
