Opis

This book is aiming the study of soil behaviour when soil blended with the plastic waste, steel dust and wood ash then the soil properties are considerably changed and observed improvement in the California bearing ratio and shear strength of the soil. As limited was conducted on the soil samples collected from the site are tested in the laboratory. The aim of this study is to make the use of waste materials like plastic, steel dust and wood ash in the civil engineering application as stabilizing agent.
