Abstract:The research investigated the potential use of sisal fiber and plastic waste strips as a partial replacement for cement to enhance the geotechnical characteristics of lateritic soils. Various laboratory experiments were conducted, encompassing tests such as specific gravity determination, grain size distribution analysis, compaction assessment, Atterberg limit evaluation, unconfined compressive strength (UCS) testing, and microscopic analysis. Sisal fiber and plastic strips were each varied at 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5… Show more
