An extensive experimental multi-scale analysis was developed on a pyroclastic soil, coming from Central Italy, to investigate the link between the mineralogical and microstructural evolution of the system and the mechanical improvements induced by lime treatment. Chemo-mineralogical and microstructural evolution of the hydrated lime-soil system was...
In soil science, structural features of soils are an important attribute; soils can be characterised by proportional size distribution of aggregates and the pore space between and within those aggregates. The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between the visible and near infrared (Vis–NIR) spectra and microaggregates from a c...

This paper reports a study on chemical reactivity of gneiss, diorite and limestone aggregates in aqueous solution. The originality of this study is that it extended to very short times (less than 1440 min). Rise in pH tests was implemented and dissolution kinetics was analysed. The results showed that calcium was the major element released by the a...
