| Abstract | Sugar cane bagasse ash (SA) is the result of the incineration of residues in the production of sugar which has as its final disposal the sanitary landfills generating environmental impacts. The practice of the circular economy for using SA ash as a stabilizer of clay soils in highway bases and sub-bases requires the study of the potential of ash as an alternative cement. Soil stabilization is commonly done with the addition of cement or lime; however, the production of these materials releases CO2 into the atmosphere. This research estimates the potential use of SA ash as a cementing agent considering the physical, hydraulic, and mechanical properties of clay soil mixed with percentages of 6, 8, and 10% of Uncalcined Sugarcane Bagasse Ash (USA) and Calcined Sugarcane unit weight, granulometric analysis, and Atterberg limits tests were carried out to evaluate the physical properties of the mixtures. One-dimensional consolidation tests, soil water characteristic curves (SWCC), standard Proctor compaction, unconfined compression, and direct shear were carried out to estimate the mechanical and hydraulic properties of the mixtures. An improvement in the physical, hydraulic, and mechanical properties was found with the addition of USA and CSA. Finally, based on the analysis of the physical, hydraulic, and mechanical properties of the Soil-USA and soil-CSA samples, it was determined that the best option as an alternative cementitious agent is found in the 8% Soil-CSA mixture due to the improvement in the plasticity index, gravity density, angle of friction, cohesion, and unconfined compressive in comparison with the other samples and the original soil. However, it is essential to mention that this cementitious addition can prejudice the hydraulic properties and consolidation process. It is vital to consider those parameters when realizing any geotechnical design with this mixture. |
