“…Industrial waste materials have been employed as additives to improve the properties of soils. In previous studies on soil improvement, some additives that were commonly used for this purpose, including recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) [10,11], cement by-pass dust, also known as cement kiln dust (CKD) [12,13], pond ash (PA) [14], steel slag (SS) [15][16][17], end-of-life tires (ELT) [18][19][20], fly ash (FA) [21,22], rice husk ash (RHA) [23,24], waste stone powder (WSP) [25,26], construction and demolition waste (CDW) [27][28][29], waste glass (WG) [30][31][32][33], and coffee wastes (CW) [34,35]. These studies have shown that using recycled or waste materials is effective in increasing the engineering properties of soil mixtures and providing a quality control method for their applications in the field.…”

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.
