Evaluation of Indirect Tensile Strength and Unconfined Compressive Strength of Cement Treated Granular Subbase with Copper Slag
Abstract: This study investigates the mechanical properties of Cement Treated Granular Subbase (CTGSB) with the inclusion of copper slag as a partial replacement material. The research focuses on evaluating the Indirect Tensile Strength (ITS) and Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) to assess the material's suitability for road construction. Various mix proportions of copper slag were analyzed to determine their effect on strength development. The results revealed that the ITS increased from 0.79 …
