چکیده

subgrade soil stabilization is one of the primary and major processes in the construction of any highway; also environmental authorities are concerned about the growing amount of polyethylene (pet) bottles produced by household sectors. this research in order to study effect of adding recycled polyester fiber on soil engineering properties, especially shear strength and california bearing ratio (cbr) used clay soil with low liquid limit (cl) and atterberg limits used high liquid limit (ch). clay soil with recycled polyester fibers are mixed with soil in three different percentages 0.1%, 0.3% & 0.5% (the portion of stabilizer matters to soil net weight). shear strength, cbr, atterberg limits of stabilizer samples were measured by direct shear test and cbr test and atterberg limits test. experiments results show this fact that using of recycled polyester leads to increasing shear strength and cbr and reduction, plasticity index. it is remarkable that according to economic problems, the most optimum quantity of recycled polyester fiber to reach to favorite strength is 0.5%.

Utilization of Soil Stabilization with Cement and Copper Slag as Subgrade Materials in Road Embankment Construction

In this study, unconfined compression tests have been conducted to investigate the impacts of copper slag on mechanical characteristics for stabilized cement and un-stabilized soil. Dozens of specimens were prepared at four percentages of cement (i.e. 0%, 2%, 4% and 6%) and five percentages of copper slag (i.e. 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%) by weight of dry soil. The samples compacted into a cylind...

Progress in Surface and Subgrade Stabilization

Another larger structure which is somewhat unusual is a 54-foot oolitic limestone arch bridge, carrying a stabilized gravel road 22 feet wide with a five-foot sidewalk on one side. This bridge spans McCormick's Creek a few hundred feet above the falls and carries the picnic ground road from the hotel to the Beech Grove area. This structure was built by the CCC camp which was located there for a...

Fiber reinforced plastic composites using recycled materials

This work investigates the feasibility of using recycled high density polyethylene (rHDPE), recycled polypropylene (rPP) and old newsprint fiber (ONP) to manufacture fiber reinforced composites. The boards were made through air-forming and hot press. The effects of the fiber loading and coupling agent content on tensile, flexural, internal bond properties and water absorption and thickness swel...
