Abstract Huge quantities of Palm Kernel Shell (PKS) are produced as wastes annually due
to increase in demand for palm oil. Regardless of the numerous potential derivatives from …

This paper focuses on serving twofold benefits for the environment by providing not only
recycling of a waste material but also improving rutting performance of sand subgrade under …

Plastic waste (PW) constitutes a nuisance to our environment despite several efforts to
reduce, reuse and recycle it. This study experimentally explores the possibility of storing …

The use of different marine residues found in the great biodiversity of the Peruvian coast,
such as crushed mollusk shells or fan shells, can be used as mechanical stabilizers for clay …

Consolidation is a change in soil volume at the time of loading due to pore pressure
dissipation. The consolidation parameter is a parameter that determines the consolidation …

One method of soil stabilization is to mix the soil with natural materials such as fibers or
shells from plants. Generally, the samples are compacted in a laboratory by mean of …

Palm Kernel Shell (PKS) is a by-product of the palm oil processing industry that is typically
located in areas with very soft soil, particularly in South Kalimantan. It has been extensively …

The main problem in construction is the lack of quantities of land to build the infrastructure,
such as roads, buildings, dams, etc. Meanwhile, the technical specifications for soil are often …

In construction design, several soil parameters are needed, especially the value of
unconfined compressive strength. The value of unconfined compressive strength aims to …

The product materials which are generated from industrial manufacturing are used to
enhance the engineering and chemical properties of soil. There are three phases of soil …
