This presentation discusses using waste plastics to stabilize soil. It introduces soil stabilization techniques and why plastics could be used. A case study was conducted where plastic strips and bottles were added to soil samples at different percentages. Tests measured properties like liquid limit, plastic limit, density, and California Bearing Ratio. Results found adding up to 1.5% plastics increased strength and density. The study concludes using plastics for soil stabilization is cheap and helps improve soil properties for construction while reducing plastic waste.

4. INTRODUCTION
•SOIL STABILIZATION IS A PROCESS WHICH IMOROVES
THE PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF SOIL .
•STABIILIZATION IS THE PROCESS OF BLENDING AND
MIXING OF MATERIALS WITH SOIL.
•STABILIZATION CAN BE DONE
WITH THE CEMENT,LIME,BITUMEN,FLYASH ETC.
•HERE WE ARE USING THE NEW AND ECONOMICAL
TECHNIQUE THAT IS PLSTIC AS A SOIL STABILIZER

5. APPLICATIONS OF SOIL STABILIZATION
•REDUCING PERMEABILITY OF SOIL
•INCREASING BEARING CAPACITY
•.INCREAING SHEAR STRENGTH
•IMPROVING DURABILITY

6. DIFFERENT TECHNIQUES OF
SOIL STABILIZATION
WHERE THE STABILITY OF SOIL IS INCREASRD BY
BLENDING WITH THE
AVAILABLE SOIL WITH IMPORTED SOIL OR
AGGREGATE
MIXING OF ADMIXTURES SUCH AS;
• LIME
•CEMENT,
•SODIUM SILICATE,
•CALCIUM CHLORIDE
•BITUMINOUS MATERIALS
•AND RESINIOUS MATERIALS
CHEMICAL STABILIZATION:
MECHANICAL STABILIZATION:

7. INCREASE SHEAR STRNGTH
TENSILE STRENGTH
CALIFORNIA BEARING RATIO (CBR)OF THE SOIL
IT CAN BE SIGNIFICANTLY ENHANCE THE
PROPERTIES OF THE SOIL USED IN THE ROAD
CONSTRUCTION
AVAILABLE IN ABUNDANCE

8. CASE STUDY
STAILIZATION OF SOIL BY USING PLASTICS

9. OBJECTIVES
THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS STUDY IS TO IMPROVE
THE CHARACTERISTCS AT SITE AND MAKE SOIL
CAPABLE OF CARRYING LOAD AND TO INCREASE
THE SHEAR STRENGTH
USING PLASTICS AS A STABILIZER ADDITIN OF
PLASTIC STRIPS ON THE FLOOR ,INCREASED
SHEAR STRENGTH ,TENSILE STERNGTHAND
CALIFORNIA BEARING RATIO
OF THE SOIL

10. METHODOLOGY
 LIQUID LIMIT
 PLASTIC LIMIT
 SPECIFIC GRAVITY
 STANDARD PROCTOR COMPACTION TEST
 SIEVE ANALYISIS
 CALIFORNIA BEARING RATIO

11. RESULTS & DISCUSSIONS
MOISTURE CONTENT =50%
LIQUID LIMIT=53%
LIQUID LIMIT
PLASTIC LIMIT
PLASTIC LIMIT =16.66%
PLASTIC INDEX=33.33%
SPECIFIC GRAVITY=2.32
CORE CUTTER OF SOIL
DENSITY;0.103 g/cc

15. SOIL+PLASTIC BAG SOIL+PLASTIC BOTTLE
ONLY SOIL = 29.34% ONLY SOIL=29.34%
0.5%=30.50% 0.5%=30.72%
1%=30.80 1%=31.38%
1.5% =31.40% 1.5% =31.89%
2% =29.56% 2% =31.67%
2.5%=29.54% 2.5%=31.45%

16. CONCLUSION
THIS METHOD IS CHEAP AND ECONOMICAL
THIS NEW TECHNIQUE OF SOIL STABILIZATION
CAN BE EFFECTIVELY USED TO MEET THE
CHALLENGES OF SOCIETY,PRODUCING USEFUL MATERIAL
FROM NON USEFUL WASTE MATERIAL
THE USE OF PLASTIC WASTE HAS SIGNIFICANTLY
HELPED IN GROUND IMPOROVEMENT
IT CAN SIGNIFICANTLY ENHANCE THE PROPERTIES OF SOIL
USED IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF ROAD INFRASTRUCTURE.
RESULTS INCLUDE BETTER LONGER LASTING ROAD WITH
INCREASING LOADING CAPACITY
THE WASTE OF THE PLASTIC FROM THE SOCIETY ALSO REDUCED.
