Abstract

Research work was taken up to cope the major environmental problem of sanitary ceramic waste, which is assumed to be 9 tons per year (waste), and dune sand, which is a cohesion less soil and of no use due its low engineering properties. The sanitary ceramic waste is major environmental problem. This study gives the best use of the waste and making the best usage of the unused soil. Properties such as strength, stiffness, compressibility, permeability, swelling potential, frost susceptibility, water sensitivity, and volume change tendency may be changed by various methods of soil stabilization. A serious problem of dispose of sanitary ceramic waste is being faced by sanitary ceramic industries and construction industry. Dune sand mixed with crushed grains of sanitary ceramic waste can be utilized for various constructions and can be used further in construction of roads. Standard proctor test and CBR test were performed at various composition mix of ceramic waste into soil sample at given MDD.
