Abstract:

In this study, the impact of construction waste on some engineering characteristics of a high plasticity clay has been studied. In this scope, first and foremost, the ground sample and the chemical characteristics of construction waste are determined. The weight of the kile is 2%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30% and 35%. On the samples prepared by mixing the 40 square building waste, we have made reduction limits and standard compacting experiments. In addition to the optimum water supply and maximum dry unit volume weight conditions, with the non-contributed fiber compressed on the 5%, 10%, 20% and 30% contributed samples, the optimum water supply and maximum dry unit volume weight conditions compressed, the fixed volume swelling and free pressure tests were also conducted. The results of the experiment showed that adding 10-20% of building waste to the swallowing kits gave ideal results in reducing the swallowing potential and increasing the free pressure strength.
