Summary:

This volume presents the select proceedings of the 8th Indian Young Geotechnical Engineers Conference (8IYGEC 2021) on the following conference themes: Ground Improvement and Transportation Geotechnics. The papers in this volume cover a wide range of topics on ground improvement which include the modification using different synthetic and natural materials and inclusions in the form of fibers, geotextiles, geogrids, prefabricated vertical drains and soil nails in different ground improvement applications, and chemical modification of problematic soils using both natural additives and industrial by-products such as lime, cement, calcium chloride, calcium carbide, lignosulphonate, fly ash, blast furnace slag and bioenzymes, treatment of expansive soils with granular piles, vibro-compaction, etc. Further, this volume covers the various aspects of transportation geotechnics related to the static and dynamic performance of pavements reinforced with geosynthetic materials, drainage characteristics, and the use of marginal materials in pavements, etc. The book can be a valuable reference for researchers and professionals.
