Soil Improvement Using Waste Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET)
Soil Improvement Using Waste Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET)
This study investigates the use of waste polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle strips for soil stabilization in the Potohar region. Uncontrolled filling during housing societies development has led to settlement issues and structural cracking. By incorporating PET bottle strips in varying compositions, the engineering properties of the soil were improved, including increased maximum dry density, bearing capacity, and unconfined compression strength. This research paper offers an innovative technique to mitigate settlement problems and presents an eco-friendly waste management solution for sustainable development.
