Tags: Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, Construction & Smart Cities, Energy & Environment
Singapore's offshore land reclamation faces challenges with ultra-soft soil. A novel binder, developed from industrial by-products, offers enhanced stabilization for marine soft clay, outperforming ordinary Portland cement (OPC). This binder is more economical and environmentally friendly than OPC. It can be applied in construction projects like tunnelling and deep excavations. This innovation promises significant benefits for infrastructure development, including lower costs and reduced environmental impact.
