“…In fact, the soil densification is at its best for a fiber content of 0.1%. Moreover, Al-Refeai (1991) and Patel and Singh (2019) confirmed that the soil-fiber interaction effectively mobilizes the fibers tensile strength. Therefore, the shear resistance remarkably increased as the two above-mentioned reasons coexisted.…”

“…As a remedy for such problems, many researchers have used synthetic or natural fibres, chemical additives and natural minerals etc. on different soils since decades (Ghazavi & Roustaie, 2010;Güllü & Khudir, 2014;Brózda & Selejdak, 2019;Patel & Singh, 2019;Pietrzak & Ulewicz, 2019).…”

Across the globe, cold region areas experience frequent freeze and thaw cycles. Sometimes these natural cycles become so impacteous that the engineering properties of soil get affected adversely and supported structures like pavements damage or collapse by the time. In the present study chicken eggshell powder, sodium chloride and polypropylene fibres were used to stabilise the soil. Strength properties of 21-day cured virgin and treated soil samples were determined after keeping under 3, 5 and 10 freeze-thaw cycles. For durability assessment, mass loss was also determined after the same number of freeze-thaw cycles. Finally, optimal conditions were determined through analysis of variance. Results showed that the natural additives and synthetic fibres promise as better provision against harsh weather conditions. Design of experiments was made by the Taguchi technique using a statistical software Minitab® 17. Further analysis was done to find out the probability distribution of the responses. Probability distribution showed a large variation in the responses that implies that although the results were found satisfactorily as per the engineering purposes, yet not suitable to make any relationship between strength and durability properties.

“…These by-products can be of an ash type like flyash or bottom ash or a solid waste type like glass fibers, tyre waste, etc. (Benessalah et al, 2016;Latifi et al, 2015;Singhi et al, 2016;Tavakoli et al, 2018;Cheng et al, 2018;Patel and Singh, 2018). Among these studies, glass fiber and tire waste performed better against freeze-thaw (FT) effects on concrete.…”

Lime and cement are quite compatible for stabilizing clayey soils; changes in a thermal regime may inversely affect the advantages of stabilized soil. The present study interprets changes in the mechanical behaviour of frozen and unfrozen Himalayan soil samples through an unconfined compressive strength test. The soil was treated with ground eggshell powder (3%-9%) and alkali activator (Sodium chloride) (2%-6%); it was reinforced with arbitrarily distributed polypropylene fibers (0.05%-0.15%). Standard 7, 14 and 21-day-old soil specimens were tested in unfrozen conditions, while fresh 21-day-old soil specimens were tested after 3, 5 and 10 freeze-thaw cycles. The design of the experiments was based on the Taguchi technique and arranged in an orthogonal array. The results of the research clearly show that poultry waste (eggshell powder) and alkaline soil stabilizer improved the strength behaviour of the subject soil. On the other hand, the polypropylene fibers played an important role in changing the brittle behaviour of the stabilized soil to ductile behaviour. The sudden collapse of a structure may be avoided by using polypropylene fibers. Al-Swaidani, A. -Hammoud, I. -Meziab, A.
