THE USE OF INDUSTRIAL WASTES IN ADOBE STABILIZATION

Abstract

ABSTRACT

The main disadvantages of adobe are its low mechanical properties and poor water resistance. Phosphogypsum and fly ash used in this research, by-product from phosphoric acid fertilizer industry and thermal power plants, to improve the quality of earthen material in order to reduce its disadvantages at least partially. Hydrated lime was used 10 % and fly ash 20%, respectively of total dry mixture weight and phosphogypsum/soil ratios varied between 0.25 and 2.50 in the mixtures. The compressive strength test, unit weight and water absorption by capillarity values were determined on prepared 28-day specimens. Also the compressive strength tests were performed on specimens which soaked in water for 24 hours and these compressive strength values are satisfactory since they are greater than the average value required for standards.
