Abstract
The physicochemical reactions that proceed during interaction between clayey minerals and acids and alkalis with the formation of heavily hydrated gel-like neogenic formations that heave clayey soils are addressed. The chemical heaving of sandy soils is examined. Methods used to restore structures deformed by heaving soils are analyzed.
