The paper discusses the results of mechanical and technological tests of soil-cement composites made with cohesive soil. The compositions of analysed soil-cement mixtures differed in terms of their cement paste volume fractions and water-cement ratios. Limiting values of these technological parameters that enable the application of the soil-cement mixtures obtained in real life conditions for the purposes of the Deep Soil Mixing (DSM) method were determined. Based on the test results obtained, it was found that mechanical properties of the materials analysed were very sensitive to changes in their compositions. Variations in the volume fraction of cement paste within the range analysed caused mechanical properties to change even by an order of magnitude.

This paper provides a research data on the impact of effective microorganisms on the physic and mechanical properties of soil-cement mixtures and stone. Deep soil mixing technology considered to be used for manufacturing soil-cement. The purpose of the research is to determine a way of increasing strength of soil-cement by addition of effective microorganisms. Strength increasing method should not compromise the mixture’s movability. Authors used an experimental approach within which there were standard techniques of determining the movability of soil-cement mixture and density and strength of a soil-cement stone in a laboratory environment. This research resulted in discovering the optimal contents of a soil-cement mixture with respect to mechanical properties required. Authors proved the effective microorganisms to be efficient mean of increasing the strength of soil-cement.

This work studies the possibility to produce the new novel brick by mixing between the local soil, local lime and burnt hull ash which is the waste in the earthenware industry. All materials conducted in this work are found in Ratchaburi province located in the western of Thailand. The chemical and mechanical properties are studied including the thermal conductivity will be determined. Varying burnt hull ash (BHA) contents are added into the combination and compared properties with the soil cement brick (RCB) at the same percentage weight. Results show that the compressive strength and flexural strength of soil brick mixed with 10% constant lime and varying burnt hull ash contents (CLBA) shows the maximum values at BHA of 25% by weight at water to powder ratio of 0.4225 and the thermal conductivity of CLBA is lower than that of SCB given as 43.98%.
