摘要：The solid waste of closed dump site contains various complex characteristics. Different wastes havedifferent decomposition rates, different compact potential and different settlement rates. Differential waste settlement isa major geotechnical problem characteristic of all waste dumps. Buildings and other structures constructed on dumpsite have large settlements causing damage. The settlement of solid waste is ongoing process and variation incharacteristics is attributed to a combination of factors including dump fill age, waste nature, moisture availability,depth of fills and compaction. In past the places for waste deposition in Lucknow were chosen based on convenienceand existing characteristics such as low lying areas or just nearby open space in most haphazard and uncontrolledmanner. The seven closed dump sites covering the various areas of Lucknow city under this study that characterize thegeotechnical properties of dump site are no exceptions..The samples were collected from seven trial pits at depths of1m; 1.5m and 2m for each selected dump site were used for investigation. The soil samples collected were subjected tospecific gravity, natural moisture content, particle size analysis, consistency limits, compaction, permeability and directshear tests. The results obtained were compared with the control samples taken from the adjoining area of selecteddump site. The study recommends the solution to minimize the problem of waste settlement and design of thefoundations of structures/civil works on this type of ground.
