“…Recently, improving poor soil using CDW has become an interesting topic among researchers ( Yuan and Shen, 2011 ; Arisha et al., 2016 ; Duan et al., 2020 ; Bagriacik and Mahmutluoglu, 2020 ). Using CDW in ground improvement work can solve geotechnical engineering and environmental threats.…”

“…1) (UN-Environment Technical Note 2017). Many studies have been carried out to evaluate the reusing and recycling of such materials in construction activities (Taha and Pradeep 1997;Mckelvey et al 2002;Cyr et al 2004;Aqil et al 2005;Kumar and Singh 2008;Diagne et al 2015;Fattah and Al-Waily 2015;Missaoui et al 2016;Bassani and Tefa 2018;Li et al 2019;Oluremi et al 2019;Shariati et al 2019;Al-Baidhani and Al-Taie 2020;Bagriacik and Mahmutluoglu 2020). Work began by using the CD materials as substitutes for or with raw materials in the construction operations, and the researchers concluded that it can be reused or recycled in the road constructions (Hansen 1992;Corinaldesi et al 2002;Evangelista and De Brito 2007; Saride et al Yang et al 2011;Toghroli et al 2018;Norsati et al 2018;Trung et al 2019;Bassani et al 2019;Beja et al 2020;Godoy et al 2020).…”

Many countries suffer from the stacks of construction and demolition (CD) materials as they cause environmental and health problems in society. The city of Mosul in Iraq suffers from a huge amount of demolition materials resulting from destruction of most of the infrastructure. In the present study, attempts have been made to assess the influence of three types of CD materials (dragged asphalt, DA; crushed brick, CB; and crushed concrete, CC) on the response of a low-plasticity clay (CL) for use as a road subgrade layer. An intensive series of both experimental and numerical studies on the CL with 10% CD materials was carried out using field California bearing ratio (CBR) tests performed in a large-scale model box. The results showed significant improvement in the CBR values upon the addition of CD materials to the CL soil. The CBR values increased by 12.4, 13.7, and 49.7% with the addition of DA, CB, and CC, respectively. The CBR values improved between 1.1 and 1.7 times, corresponding to an increase in the layer thickness from 50 to 100 cm. Further increases in CBR values range from 1.5 to 1.8 times attendant with increasing the thickness of layer from 50 cm to 150 cm. The addition of CC is more active and gives higher CBR values. A good match was observed between the CBR values obtained from the experimental results and the numerical analysis using the PLAXIS 2D package.

“…As shown in Fig. 10, the maximum stress on the foundation seated on the reference sample was 168 kN/m 2 [44] and that of the reinforced sample was 220 kN/m 2 . Thus, the inclusion of PP increased the maximum strength of sandy soil by 30.7%.…”

This study investigates the use of glass fiber-reinforced polyester (GRP) pipe powder (PP) for improving the bearing capacity of sandy soils. After a series of direct share tests, the optimum PP addition for improving the bearing capacity of soils was found to be 12%. Then, using the optimum PP addition, the bearing capacity of the soil was estimated through a series of loading tests on a shallow foundation model placed in a test box. The bearing capacity of sandy soil was improved by up to 30.7%. The ratio of the depth of the PP-reinforced soil to the diameter of the foundation model (H/D) of 1.25 could sufficiently strengthen sandy soil when the optimum PP ratio was used. Microstructural analyses showed that the increase in the bearing capacity can be attributed to the chopped fibers in the PP and their multiaxial distribution in the soil. Besides improving the engineering properties of soils, using PP as an additive in soils would reduce the accumulation of the industrial waste, thus providing a twofold benefit.
