Descrição: The present study makes three contributions to the literature of expansive soils: (i) it proposes equations to predict soil swelling based on dry density and cement content, (ii) it checks the developed general equation by predicting the swelling of different expansive soils from the literature, and (iii) it designs experiments that investigate factors that have a significant influence on swelling. An experimental programme was carried out to analyse the expansion of bentonite–kaolin–cement blends. Different proportions of bentonite–kaolin, cement content, dry density, and moisture content were evaluated. A unique relation of the cement/porosity index was obtained for cement-stabilized expansive soils’ swelling; this index has been used before to portray strength, stiffness, and loss of mass of stabilized soils and is now shown to be applicable to describe swelling of expansive soils treated with Portland cement. In the present research, cement content and dry density are seen as conflicting parameters regarding the swelling of expansive soils, because increasing the amount of Portland cement reduces swelling and increasing the density (through compaction) causes higher expansion. A general swelling model is proposed and successfully checked with data from the literature; it is able to predict the swelling of expansive soils with different densities, expansive mineral, moisture content, and cement content.
