摘 要:To meet the ever-increasing construction demands around the world during recent years,reinforcement and stabilization methods have been widely used by geotechnical engineers to improve the performances and behavior of fine-grained *** lime stabilization increases the compressive strength of soils,it reduces the soil ductility at the same *** research shows that random fiber inclusion modifies the brittleness of *** the current research,the effects of lime and polypropylene(PP)fiber additions on such characteristics as compressive and shear strengths,failure strain,secant modulus of elasticity(E50)and shear strength parameters of mixtures were *** was treated with 1%,3% and 5% lime by dry weight of soil and reinforced with 0.1% monovalent PP fibers with the length of 6 *** were prepared at optimum conditions and cured at 35℃ for 1 d,7 d and 28 d at 90% relative humidity and subsequently subjected to uniaxial and triaxial compression tests(UCT and TCT)under cell pressures of 25 kPa,50 kPa and 100 *** showed that inclusion of random PP fibers to clay-lime mixtures increases both compressive and shear strengths as well as the *** content and curing period were found to be the most influential *** electron microscopy(SEM)analysis showed that lime addition and the formation of cementitious compounds bind soil particles and increase soil/fiber interactions at interface,leading to enhanced shear *** more ductile the stabilized and reinforced composition,the less the cracks in roads and waste landfill covers.
