It is well recognized that inherent stress concentration within a fault damage zone may lead to induced fault-slip, resulting in severe damage to underground facilities. Previous research suggests that the intensity of ...

In Sri Lanka, understanding the hydrogeological conditions is vital when constructing tunnels, especially geological regions such as the Highland Complex, where groundwater supports local communities and agriculture. While ...

Cement grouting is a widely using technique in Sri Lanka to stabilize the unstable slope surfaces. Although cement grouting has been identified as an efficient mean of stabilization, it is not an ecofriendly practice. ...

Main roads near water bodies are prone to stability issues caused by erosion from rainfall, river flow, sudden water drawdowns, and human activities. This study examines four sites facing such challenges, identifying erosion ...

Rivers have a significant role in the coastal sediment budget as the primary sources of natural sediment. Furthermore, it's critical to understand the actual contribution of river sediment load to the littoral beach. Due ...

River sand and cement are important construction materials, but their scarcity creates significant challenges for the construction industry. Quarry dust is being explored as a possible alternative, as crushed rock is a ...

This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the mechanical and mineralogical properties of rocks collected from Maddhapara Granite Mine (MGM) in the northern region of Bangladesh. The research focuses on the characterization ...

Waste management stands as a critical global environmental challenge, with a growing emphasis on waste avoidance and the generation of revenue through byproduct recovery. Pollution prevention strategies aim to minimize ...

Serpentinite deposits in Ginigalpelessa and Indikolapelessa Sri Lanka, are known to exhibit a high supergene enrichment of Ni, Cr, and Co in the regolith due to the prolonged weathering of the underlying serpentinite ...
