Patent ID: 11124930

Abstract:
Design and construction method for improving an expansive soil embankment using phosphogypsum and microbes, including the following steps: (1) placing Bacillus pasteurii into a culture medium to prepare a microbial solution, and mixing urea and calcium chloride with water to prepare a cementing fluid; (2) mixing and stirring a mixture, the microbial solution and water, adding the cementing solution well, and mixing the cementing fluid with water to prepare an improved mixture; and (3) leveling and compacting original ground, laying geomembranes, the improved mixture, and geogrids, laying a last layer of geomembrane on the top surface of the embankment after pavement of the embankment, and paving a roadbed. The design and construction method can meet construction requirements of highway embankment projects and roadbed projects of first-grade and other grades of roads, and consume solid waste phosphogypsum.
