Abstract:

Composite soils have been widely used in civil engineering applications, especially in slopes, embankment dam and landfills. This paper aims to investigate effect of fiber inclusion on shear stress of composite soil (i.e. clay composite). A series of laboratory direct shear tests carried out to evaluate paper reinforcement effect on strength behavior of composite clay. Kaolin clay was selected as soil part of the composite and paper was used as reinforcement. The paper reinforcement parameters differed from one test to another, the paper length was changed from 10 mm to 30 mm and paper content were varied from 5% to 15%. Normal stress kept constant at 150 kPa. For each test, stress_ displacement graph derived and the results were compared. The results proved that inclusion of paper reinforcement affected strength behaviour of clay composite so that increasing in paper reinforcement content and length caused increasing in shear stress.
