“…In many cases, soft soils, which comprise the majority of subgrade foundations, may behave actively as plastics or liquids when wetness penetrates them [1][2][3]. Variations in moisture content control a major portion of the behavior of fine-grained soils.…”

Stabilization of clayey soil is commonly used to enhance unfavorable engineering properties. The effects of silica additives on soil improvement have been considered recently, and documented research studies on the characteristics of problematic clays stabilized by silica additives are interesting for many researchers. Alternative waste disposal strategies that would be both economically beneficial and environmentally friendly have been identified by this study. In the present study, waste silica-based addition is used to stabilize clayey soil, and the time-dependent changes in strength properties are investigated. Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) tests were conducted on stabilized samples at various curing durations to investigate macro-level properties. The UCS test results revealed that the 7.5% of GP+ 5% L content was optimal for the clayey soil as the strength was increased by 166.06%. The addition of the glass powder with hydrated lime components to the clayey soil resulted in stabilized samples, indicating a dense and compact matrix and reduced soil porosity, which increased the mechanical strength, according to the SEM analysis. This curing reaction technique is very beneficial and economical for geotechnical engineering applications.

“…Several forms of WG have been produced, researched, and applied in the practice, such as glass powder (Bilgen, 2020b;Mohajerani, et al, 2017;Rai, Singh and Tiwari, 2020), waste soda lime (Canakci, Aram and Celik, 2016), fine to coarse recycled glass (Disfani, et al, 2011), recycled crushed glass, foamed glass, glass fibers, and glass geopolymers (Alqaisi, Le and Khabbaz, 2019). Most of these WG materials are produced from damaged windows of demolished buildings (Sharma and Bhardwaj, 2018) and drinking containers (Olufowobi, et al, 2014). Soda-lime glass is the most obtainable type of WG.…”

“…8 shows that UCS generally increased as the WG content increased. Sharma and Bhardwaj (2018) conducted UCS tests on a high-plasticity clay treated by WG at three different contents (3%, 5%, and 7%) at curing ages of 1, 7, and 28 days and found that as the WG content increased, the UCS increased. For example, adding 3% WG to the soil increased UCS from 303 kPa at 1 day, 678 kPa at 7 days, and 1155 kPa at 28 days of curing.…”

“…Clayey soils are extensively spread on many parts of the earth (Behnood, 2018;Ramos, et al, 2015). Some of the clayey soils are expansive soils whose volumes are directly proportional to moisture content, they expand when the water content increases and shrink when the water content decreases (Sharma and Bhardwaj, 2018). These soils also lose strength when they get wet.…”

Soils are the most commonly used construction material in engineering projects. Fine-grained soils especially clayey soil may expand and lose strength when wet and shrink when dry, resulting in a significant volume change. Construction on weak soils has created challenges for various civil engineering projects worldwide, including roadways, embankments, and foundations. As a result, improving weak soil is vital, particularly for highway construction. The properties of this type of soil can be improved by waste-recycled materials such as waste glass (WG). The WG must be crushed and ground to a fine powder first and then can be mixed in various proportions with the soil. The primary objective of this study is to review the effect of WG on geotechnical properties of fine-grained soils treated by WG. To demonstrate the effects, the treated fine-grained soils at varying percentages of WG are compared with untreated soils. Physical properties (e.g., Atterberg limits, swelling, and maximum dry density), mechanical properties (e.g., California bearing ratio, and unconfined compressive strength) are evaluated. The test results from the literature show that adding a certain percentage of WG leads to a substantial effect on the properties of fine-grained soils; hence, using WG could reduce the required thickness of subbases in the construction of driveways and roads.

“…The problematic soils such as; expansive clay [1], [2], dispersive clay [3][4], marl soil [5], and collapsible soil [1], [6] are those whose volume increases when they become moist [7]. These soils are considered a natural risk to engineering construction as they can seriously harm lightweight structures and highway pavements [8].…”
