This study investigates the influence of wood pellet fly ash blended binder (WABB) on the mechanical properties of typical weathered granite soils (WS) under a field and laboratory tests. WABB, composed of 50 % wood pellet fly ash (WA), 30 % ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS), and 20 % cement by dry mass, was applied at dosages of 200–400 kg/m3 to four soil columns were constructed at a field site deposited with WS. After 28 days, field tests, including coring, standard penetration tests (SPT), and permeability tests, revealed enhanced soil cementation and reduced permeability, indicating a denser soil matrix. Unconfined compressive tests (UCT) and free-free resonant column (FFRC) tests on field cores at 28 and 56 days, compared with laboratory specimens and previously published data, demonstrated strength gains 1.2–2.1 times higher due to field-induced stress. The presence of clay minerals influenced the WABB's interaction and microstructure development. Correlations between seismic waves, small-strain moduli, and strength were developed to monitor in-situ static and dynamic stiffness gain of WABB-stabilized weathered granite soils. |
