Effect of Sisal Fiber and Polyurethane Admixture on the Strength and Mechanical Behavior of Sand

One major problem related to sandy soil is its low shear strength and cohesion in engineering. Although much effort has been made to strengthen sand mass with satisfactory performances, most undertakings lack environmental considerations. Thus, a combination of natural fiber and macromolecule polyme...
