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


Abstract in English

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.
