Abstract:

For any pavement, the subgrade layer is very important and it has to be strong to support the entire wheel load. To work on soils, we need to have proper knowledge about their properties and factors which affect their behavior. Swelling of expansive soils causes serious problems. By consolidating under load and changing volumetrically along with seasonal moisture variation, these problems are manifested through swelling, shrinkage and unequal settlement. In this paper the experimental study is planning to do on expansive soil with treated tile waste. A study is planning to check the improvements in the properties of expansive soil with tile waste in varying percentages by adding an increment of 10%.

Keywords:
