Shear Strength Characteristics of Marble Dust-Lime Stabilized Marine Clay
Marine clay has a low load capacity and changes volume dramatically as an effect of water content. It may need to be treated before it can be utilized for road construction. Many types of waste materials are accumulating, and environmentalists are concerned for how to safely dispose of them. India’s vast industrial network generates millions of metric tons of industrial wastes each year. The marble business produces marble dust as one of its products. The study is to examine the effect of marble dust as a stabilizer. First, an optimum value of marble dust (20%) was determined on the basis of unconfined compressive strength (UCS) properties of mixtures of marble dust and soil (marine clay). Then, lime was mixed up to 10% by weight with an increment of 2% in the optimized mixture (marine clay–marble dust). To examine the properties of Marble dust-Lime Stabilized Marine clay, various experiments such as Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS), Triaxial Tests, and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) were performed. The results obtained from the laboratory investigation, it is observed the ideal marble dust-lime proportion for the best stabilization effect is observed to be 4–20%.
