Stabilization of Reinforced Earth Wall Backfill Using Steel Slag and Recycled PET Fiber: A Composite Material Approach
Abstract: Reinforced Earth (RE) walls are widely used in infrastructure due to their structural efficiency and ease of construction. However, they typically require high-quality granular backfill, which may not be readily available or cost-effective in many regions. This study investigates the potential of utilizing locally available sandy clay soil stabilized with industrial and plastic waste materials specifically 20% steel slag and 0.75% shredded polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fibers, as an alternative backfill …
