Enhancing Engineering Properties of Expansive Soil Using Marble Waste Powder

Owing to its propensity swell when in contact with water, expansive soil causes severe structural problems and shrinks they dry out. Soil stabilization is a well-known method used enhance the soil's physical engineering properties commonly adopted for improving structures. The mechanical of different soils evaluated by adding varying proportions marble dust (10, 20, 30 percent) Penjwen, Said Sadiq Pirmam waste powder) soil. Shear strength consolidation parameters, such as void ratio, compression index, sample swelling were determined basic properties. obtained from cutting grinding real Erbil factory experimental program. addition decreases percentage, an increase percentage powder soils. It concluded that Bastora more than Airport soil, based on index studies.
