Study of faults at Lattakia region shows normal, reversed and
strike-slip faults. Main fault directions and their geologic age
estimation were determined. The normal faults have NE-SW
main direction from Middle Miocene and E-W secondary
direction from Paleogene.
In this research the influence of the fineness of natural
pozzolana and lime on the properties of compaction ,
unconfined compressive strength and linear shrinkage of
clayey soil was experimented the finessess of natural pozzolana
used in this re
earch were 3500,4000,4500 cm²/g , finessess of
lime 4000 , 5000 , 6000 cm²/g.
Being critical, the stability of clayey soil, is a priority for the
civil engineer in constructions of roads and buildings. This
experimental study comes in the context of examination of the
effectiveness of menial stabilizers. Lime (L), Natural P
ozzolana
(NP), and Combinations of both, were examined to enhance the
characteristics of compaction, consistency and to restrict the
shrinkage behavior of clayey soil.
