| description | Using a modified permeameter, laterite samples that were corroded and permeated by alkaline solutions at different concentrations for varying amounts of time were subjected to triaxial compression tests, chemical composition analysis, particle composition tests, and microstructure analysis. The results showed that the strength parameters c, φ, and K of the laterite samples that were corroded by alkaline-solution permeation were reduced with increasing corrosion time and alkaline-solution concentration. The alkaline-solution corrosion had a minor effect on the strength parameters n and Rf. The contents of Al2O3 and Fe2O3 in the laterite fluctuated and decreased with increasing alkaline-solution concentration and corrosion time. There were no distinct patterns in the relationships between the SiO2 content and the increases in the alkaline-solution concentration and corrosion time. Due to the corrosion during the alkaline-solution permeation, the content of clay particles increased with increasing time and concentration of the alkaline solution. After the permeation with the alkaline solution, the soil particles became smaller and were arranged in an ordered state. The analysis suggested that the permeation effect of the alkaline solution changed the chemical composition of the laterite and the connecting strength of the soil particles, resulting in changes in its physical and mechanical properties. |
