Sustainable soil stabilization: the use of waste materials to improve the engineering properties of soft soils

One of the biggest challenges recent civil engineering is need to make it sustainable by implementing environmentally friendly and cost-effective solutions. The search for new materials technologies an important current issue also in strengthening soft soils. In soil stabilization process, conventional (cement lime) are being replaced waste materials, such as stone slurry waste, spent coffee grounds, rice husk ash, crushed concrete glass, natural fibers, sawdust, tire rubber plastic materials. Appropriate admixture content contributes reinforcement reducing compressibility increasing maximum density shear strength. application economically ecologically beneficial method improvement. It eliminates cost helps reduce problem disposal, which sometimes very expensive problematic. study aims analyze effect on improving physical mechanical properties soils based research results presented literature.
