Title

Use of cement and demolition waste for soil stabilization in highway subgrade

Abstract

Clayey soils are often associated with low bearing capacity, high shrinkage and swell characteristics so it becomes necessary to stabilize such soils. In this study an effort has been made to improve the strength properties of clayey soil. The proportion used of ordinary Portland cement was 3, 6% and that of fine recycled Construction and Demolition waste (passing 1.18 mm sieve) was 10, 20, 30and 40%. Due to high exploitation of natural materials, there is a great need to identify and use the waste materials in the best possible way in order to lessen the burden on the natural materials. Secondly, use of waste materials may also resolve the problem of their disposal, hence helping in avoiding the pollution due to this disposal process. Among many waste material, CDW may also be used under the theme of reduce, recycle and reuse and it has been already proven by many researchers that such waste can be effectively utilized as a stabilizing agent for adverse soils. Further, cement as a binder is very well renowned admixture for such soils. Compaction characteristics and CBR value (soaked and unsoaked) of various samples were studied with such admixtures and stabilizers. From compaction characteristics it was observed that with increase in various percentages of CDW (up to 30%), with variation of 10% and cement content (0-6%), with variation of 3%, CBR has improved significantly for both the soaked and unsoaked conditions. Maximum dry density increases with the increase in percentage of CDW and Cement. Optimum Moisture Content decreases with the increase in CDW. With inclusion and increase in cement content, the MDD as well OMC increase. But CBR for both soaked and unsoaked cases started falling for CDW beyond 30 %. But, overall it has been shown in this study that CDW and cement can be effectively used to improve the properties of clayey soil masses making them a better material to be used to construct highway sub-grade as indicated ahead in this report.
