Thanks
RE: High E.I.
I dont really know if it is possible that a soil can reach that EI but ASTM d 4829 indicate that soil heaving and EI higher than 130 has a very high potential to swell.
Probably you are dealing with a clay having a high content of kaolinite minerals, son, a special foundation design is requiered see USACE Foundation is Expansive soils, mat desing by the Building Research Advisory Board, or PTI postensined Institute, where is you project located?
