About this document
Clay Properties Analysis in MARADI, Niger by Université Niamey is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document summarizes a study on the physical parameters of clays from three quarries in Maradi, Niger. Testing showed the clays from the Kabawa and Jiratawa quarries have low compressibility, while the clay from the Maradawa quarry has high compressibility. Particle size analysis found the clays have uniform granulometry. Plasticity indices ranged from 14.3 to 26.4, indicating the soils are plastic. The liquidity limits were below 50 for Kabawa and Jiratawa clays but above 50 for Maradawa clay. The stud
