Influence of crushed glass wastes additives on enhancement of expansive soil compaction and consistency characteristics

In this research an experimental study has been carried out to investigate the enhancement of Bosra Alsham´s soil (120 km south Damascus) by using crushed glass wastes additives by using experimental approach. The soil samples were taken from Bosra (2m underground surface), which is classified as highly plastic clayey soil CH according to unified classification.

The combined Influence of Lime and Natural Pozzolana Additives on Enhancement of Clayey Soil Compaction, Consistency characteristics and restriction on soil shrinkage

Being critical, the stability of clayey soil, is a priority for the civil engineer in constructions of roads and buildings. This experimental study comes in the context of examination of the effectiveness of menial stabilizers. Lime (L), Natural Pozzolana (NP), and Combinations of both, were examined to enhance the characteristics of compaction, consistency and to restrict the shrinkage behavior of clayey soil.
