Climate change, TMI and designing on expansive soil

Dr. Rajibul Karim

Expansive soils go through significant volume changes due to seasonal moisture variations resulting in ground movements. The ground movement related problems are likely to worsen in the future due to climate change. This talk discusses possible implication of climate change on expansive soil movement, a possible way of quantifying it and its implication on designing on expansive soil. Several possible scenarios will be discussed for SA and other states.
