Geotechnical properties of carbonate soils with reference to an improved engineering classification

Includes bibliography. === The engineering behaviour of carbonates differ substantially from quartz based soils. A review of the literature was undertaken in an attempt to identify relevant parameters which could provide the basis for an improved engineering classification. Carbonate content, cement...
