Title

SOIL STABILIZATION BY USING BRICK POWDER

Abstract

The structures which are constructed over black cotton soil may tend to easy deformations due to its volume change and shrinking tendency. Among various soil deposits in Indian terrain, Black cotton soil is one of the most prevalent constituents. Due to rapid urbanization, constructions over these soils are unavoidable. Development of roads in places having black cotton soil affects strength and durability of the pavement to a large degree. It is vital to increase the soil's bearing capacity & behavior in order for the pavement to endure its load. It is approximately estimated that the building sector in India creates 10 to 12 million metric tons of waste yearly, leading to a significant disposal challenge. These construction and demolition waste can be added in soil which may affect soil properties. For the present study, brick powder from debris has been used as a stabilizer in order to strengthen black cotton soil used in construction of sub grades in pavements. In the current research, it is proposed to determine the optimal proportion of brick powders to be added in black cotton soil or to investigate the properties of BCS. The optimum percentage is fixed by studying the literature. In this study the influence of brick powder with black cotton soil is observed separately. Sieve analysis, Atterberg’s Limit, Specific Gravity, Free Swell Index, Modified Proctor, Unconfined Compressive Strength and California Bearing Ratio test were carried out on black cotton soil and 6%, 8%, 10%, 12% brick powder blended soils. The tests were performed using different proportions of brick powder which includes 6%, 8%, 10% and 12%. At the end of all tests with reference to CBR test, the results showed that the maximum strength was obtained when 10% of brick powder was mixed with the BCS. This Shows that the minimum 10% brick powder is to be added in BCS which result in increase in the strength of soil as well as reduction in pavement construction cost as compared to less proportions (6%, 8%) which were tested. Finally, the pavement design for 5%, 6%, 7% CBR is performed and the cost of construction of pavement has been evaluated and it can be reduced for locally available black cotton soil by stabilizing it with wasted brick powder.
