Abstract AR
یمكن تعریف الترب الانتفاخیة بأنھا التربة التي یتغیر حجمھا بتغیر محتواھا الرطوبي.
في ھذا البحث اختیرت أربع مناطق في مدینة الناصریة الواقعة في الجزء الجنوبي من العراق.
تم دراسة بعض الخواص الجیوتكنیكیة لغرض تقیمھا ھندسیا و ملائمتھا لبناء المنشاة، و قد تم دراسة خواص التحلیل ألحجمي و حدود اتربرغ و التحلیل الكیمیائي للترب و فحص القوام و الانضمام، و حساب جھد الانتفاخ اعتمادا على حد السیول و دلیل اللدونة.
أظھرت النتائج اختلاف في الخواص الجیوتكنیكیة مع العمق من منطقھ إلى أخرى، و قد بینت نتائج حدود اتربرغ أن تربة مناطق الدراسة كافھ واطئھ اللدانة (L.
L < 50 %)، ذات انتفاخیة عالیة اعتمادا على طریقة الفعالیة.
فحص الانضمام أظھر أن الترب ذات انضمام اعتیادي Normally Consolidation.
Abstract EN
Expansive soils are defined as those soils whose volume changes under the effect of wetting and drying cycles are these soils associated with the problems and failures that have been observed in construction field as reported from many parts of the world.
In this paper various geotechnical properties have been studied .The purpose of this study is to evaluate soils for suitable construction.
Four different sites were selected to evaluate some of geotechnical properties in some regions of Nasiriya city.
By studying grain size distribution, chemical tests, Atterbreg limits, Consistency index swelling potential, and consolidation parameters.
The present study provides typical ranges of some soil parameters.
The soil in the city of Nasiriya has a variation of engineering properties with depth.
The sites were selected from different areas to compare between the engineering properties.
The soil has low plasticity (LL < 50), and high swelling potential.
Some of the study areas contain a percent of sulphate, which has a negative effect on concrete structures.
