Project Overview:
We are seeking a motivated and talented PhD candidate to join our research team for an exciting project focused on foundation underpinning using bio-cementation techniques. This project aims to extend the lifespan of old and historic structures by exploring innovative methods such as Microbially Induced Calcium Precipitation (MICP) and Enzyme-Induced Calcium Precipitation (EICP). Funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC), the project involves research on bio-cementation for soil stabilization, with a focus on weak soils, cost-effective solutions using low-cost materials, and the development of novel underpinning techniques.
