The Geotechnical Properties of Lateritic Soil Treated with Crushed Glass Cullet
Lateritic soil treated with up to 20% glass cullet content was subjected to grain-size distribution, consistency tests, specific gravity tests, compaction using standard proctor, California Bearing Ratio (CBR), unconfined compression test, direct shear test and permeability tests. The study showed increase in grain sizes resulting in coarser soil, changes in moisture-density relationship, resulting in lower Optimum Moisture Content (OMC) and higher Maximum Dry Density (MDD), an increase in CBR, an increase in unconfined compressive strength (UCS); changes in cohesion-frictional angle relationship resulting in lower cohesion (c) and higher angle of internal friction (Φ) and an increase in co-efficient of permeability, k, with increased glass cullet treatment. These results show an improvement in geotechnical properties, making glass cullet-lateritic soil blend; a potentially good highway material and suggesting the suitability of the blend for embankments, structural and non-structural fill and retaining wall backfill.
