A study of the strength of soft clay in reinforced with group encapsulated bottom ash columns

The increasing of the demand and restrictions on the suitable land for construction in recent time led the construction industries to exploit sites that were previously considered as the uneconomical site to develop such as soft clay soil. Luckily, the advance of the technology prove that there is a...
