This Special Issue focuses on soil stabilization in the construction and building industries, as well as in geotechnical engineering. It covers all the features of this technique used to enhance the bearing capacity of soils, to modify the engineering properties of soils, the construction of pavements, or the manufacture of construction materials, among others. Sample topics of interest include but are not limited to: Stabilized soils’ mechanical properties and durability; Physical and chemical modification of stabilized soils’ properties. Analytical and testing methods.-Cementitious products and constituents: cements, hydraulic binders, alkali-activated binders, and other cementitious binders. Low-impact binders; Applications of stabilized soils: soils treatment, recycled aggregate manufacturing, pavements construction and design methods, construction and building materials manufacturing; Sustainability and circular economy. Waste valorization, raw materials savings, and environmental properties. Original research articles, review articles, and case studies of interest to the international readership of this journal (scientists, industry and applied researchers, and policy and decision makers) will be considered.
Keywords: soil mechanics; soil stabilization; sustainable construction materials; hydraulic binders; alkaline binders; pavements; waste valorization.
