Özet

In this study, the engineering properties of organic soil (OS) stabilized with pozzolanic cement (PC) were investigated. In tests, 10, 15 and 20% proportions of PC were added to organic soil. Consistency limit, Proctor, unconfined compressive strength (UCS), triaxial (TA), swelling and compressibility tests were performed on the OS stabilized with PC. The addition of PC to OS increased the maximum dry density (MDD) and optimum moisture content (OMC) values. The UCS values for the OS stabilized with PC increased up to day 56 and then there was a reduction in the UCS after day 56. The internal friction angle value increased by 26% and the cohesion intercept value increased by 86% for the OS stabilized with PC. With the increase in the cement content in the OS stabilized with PC, the UCS, internal friction angle and cohesion intercept values increased. Swelling of the OS stabilized with PC rapidly reduced up to day 10, and this reduction slowed after day 10. The compressibility of the OS stabilized with PC increased up until day 10, and this increase slowed after day 10. With an increase in the cement content in the OS stabilized with PC, swelling and compressibility values reduced. As a result of the study, it appears that pozzolanic cement is an effective stabilizer for organic soil.
