Abstract
The effect and the possible performance of soil-metallic powders reinforcement systems are evaluated. A series of undrained triaxial compression tests were carried out on cylindrical samples of silty clay reinforced with metallic powders (aluminum and cast iron) at various percentages by weight of the soil. The inclusion of metallic powder in earth improved both the strength and deformation behavior of soil substantially. The addition of small amounts of metallic powder significantly increased the maximum principal stress difference of soil sample. The metallic powder imparted additional cohesion to the soil to a significant extent.
