摘要：There is a rapid increase in generation of waste plastics all around the world due to Economic Growth,Changing Consumption and Production Patterns. The world's annual consumption of plastic materials has increasedfrom around 5 million tonnes in the 1950s to nearly 100 million tonnes. Thus, presently 20 times more plastic isproduced as compared to 50 years ago. In Asia and the Pacific, as well as many other developing regions, plasticconsumption has increased much more than the world’s average due to rapid urbanization and economic development.So, with this, more and more resources are being used to meet the increased demand of plastics, which results in highergeneration of plastic waste. After food waste and paper waste, plastic waste is the third major constitute at municipaland industrial waste in cities. Even the cities with low economic growth have started producing more plastic waste dueto increased use of plastic packaging, plastic shopping bags, PET bottles and other goods/appliances using plastic as themajor component. This situation gets worsened due to the fact that they are not even aware of the ill-effects of plasticwaste to environment. Due to extremely long periods required for natural decomposition, waste plastic is often the mostvisible component in waste dumps and open landfills. Plastic waste recycling can provide an opportunity to collect anddispose off, plastic waste in the most environmental friendly way and conversely, it can be converted into a resource.Due to growing concern about the disposal off plastic waste, and the panic in the current environmentalist, the object ofthis thesis was chosen as “Soil Stabilisation Using Polypropylene as Waste Fibre Material” which is one of the type ofthe plastic waste. In this research work, an extensive laboratory work have been done to investigate the use of the wastefibres of the polypropylene for the improvement of the various properties of the Clayey (CL) type of soil obtainedfrom Ambala City, Haryana (India). The physical properties of the “Plain Soil” as well as “Reinforced Soil” such asMaximum Dry Density at Optimum Moisture Content, Direct Shear Strength Parameters and Unconfined CompressiveStrength have been determined with the use of waste fibres polypropylene in variation of length of 10mm, 20mm &30mm at different percentage 0 %, 0.15%, 0.25% & 0.35% of waste fibre material by weight of the dry soil sample.
