The effect of seawater and sodium chloride on the compressibility behavior of clay soil

Clayey materials are widely used as a landfills liners and landfill covers due to its low permeability. In some cases, natural soil containing clay minerals are also used. There are number of landfills in Malaysia located near the sea or coastal area such as Pulau Burung Sanitary Landfill and Kota B...
