Most of old fill-dams were accumulated with a muddy soil in reservoir that caused the pollution and the shortage of reserved water. This muddy soil is generally high-water-content and very soft clayey soil. In order to make efficient use of such a problematic soil as embankment soil, we have developed a new type method to repair the damaged embankment by the cement-mixed muddy soil. The strength and strain behavior of the cement-mixed muddy soil is influenced considerably by the grading and the water content of muddy soil including the cement amount and curing period.
We propose the strength control method considering the effect of the grading and the water content of muddy soil on the strength of cement-mixed muddy soil.
