Shear Strength Behavior of Clayey Soil Reinforced with Natural Agent-Treated Coir Fiber
Coir is a promising natural fiber that can be used for soil stabilization through fiber reinforcement. In this paper, weight gain, reduction in water absorption, and single-fiber tensile strength tests are performed to evaluate the application of different natural agents such as neem oil, kerosene, and cashew nutshell liquid (CNSL) in improving the mechanical properties and durability of coir fibers. Tri-axial tests are performed on soil specimens cured for 3, 28, and 180 days to determine the improvement in their shear strength when reinforced with coir fibers treated with different agents. The fiber reinforcement led to an increase in the shear strength of the soil by improving cohesion and friction angle. Among the different agents used, the CNSL is found to be the most effective agent for coir fiber treatment.
