With pumice as the additive agent used in cement composite soil.In order to test the strength of the composite cement soil,the triaxial shear test were tested in the lab with different water content (10%,15%,20%,25%), different curing periods (7d,28d,60d),The results show that the strength of the composite cement soil first added,and then reduces. there is an optimum amount 15%.The pumice powder may evidently improve the mechanical properties of soft soil which has the characteristic of rich-water content.

With pumice as the additive agent used in cement composite soil . In order to test the strength of the composite cement soil, the unconfined compression resistance were tested in the lab with different additive quantity (4%,8%,12%,16%), different curing periods (7d,28d,60d), The results show that the strength of the composite cement soil are significantly increase with increasing curing periods , with increasing additive quantity the strength variation of the composite cement soil first added, and then reduces. there is an optimum amount 8%.The pumice powder may evidently improve the mechanical properties of soft soil which has the characteristic of rich-water content, when water content from 12% to 19%, the strength of the composite cement soil are increased about 20%.

Geotechnical tests are performed to study the strain-stress behavior and mechanical parameters by using the automatic KTG triaxial shear apparatus. This study shows that the strain softening phenomenon emerges after the peak values of strain-stress relations appear for the sliding-body soils, and that the strain-stress relations are in the sate of strain hardening all the time for the sliding-zone soils although the water content keeps sameness. The variation laws of cohesion and internal friction angle with water content are respectively consistent with an exponential function and linear relation.

With pumice as the additive agent used in cement composite soil . In order to test the mechanical performance of the composite cement soil, the unconfined compression resistance and freezing and thawing cycle test were done in the lab with different additive quantity(2%,4%,6%,8%,10%), different cement content(4%,8%,12%,16%,20%), different number of freezing and thawing(5,10,15,20,25), The results show that the strength of the composite cement soil are significantly increase with increasing cement content, before and after freezing-thawing the strength loss and mass loss are increase with increasing freezing-thawing number and cement content.

Insufficient compactness of rockfill materials may potentially cause excessive deformation of a concrete face rockfill dam (CFRD), thus resulting in cracking of the face slab and leakage of the dam body, thereby requiring reinforcement treatment. To date, there are no effective measures in strengthening rockfill materials. In this study, self-compacting mortar (SCM) was applied to the Shibaozhai CFRD in Gansu Province, China, to test the effectiveness of grouting reinforcement. Simultaneously, an indoor triaxial shear test was conducted to investigate the changes in the mechanical properties of rockfill materials before and after the grouting reinforcement. The on-site test results showed that the rockfill reached the desired porosity after grouting and grouting reinforcement enhanced the cementation degree of rockfill materials while maintaining uninterrupted drainage capacity, which met the requirements of rockfill grouting for the face rockfill dam. The results of the triaxial shear test indicated that the cohesive force of the rockfill materials rose by 3.95 times and the modulus increased by 7.24 times after grouting reinforcement,significantly enhancing the mechanical and deformation properties of the rockfill. An increase in the content of coarse particles was shown to enhance the stability of cementitious structures, which leads to a better skeleton effect and thereby raises the effectiveness of the grouting reinforcement. The rockfill materials also exhibited strain-softening characteristics following the grouting reinforcement. The research showed that grouting reinforcement technology is suitable for managing the deformation of high CFRDs or reinforcing ill rockfill dams.

At present, the research is not enough for the correlation of structure and stress-strain characters in domestic.The paper aims how the change of water content and confining pressure influence the stress-strain characters of intact loess and remolded loess by consolidated drained triaxial shear test for the Shanxi loess.The results showed that: the intact loess have structure, and the strength of intact loess is larger than remolded loess in the same condition. With the increasing of water content or confining pressure, the stress-strain of intact loess and remolded loess will tend to coincide and the impact of structure feature for loess strength will weaken.

Rigid concrete pavement is a pavement needed on a special typical load area and alsoneeded a low maintenance. Problems arise when there is limited sand material available and the costis also expensive. Solutions developed in this research apply cement composite materials mixedwith bamboo shavings waste hence building materials that are lightweight, environmentally friendlyand has the character of a concrete class were obtained.
