Abstract (EN)

Ground improvement, reduction of the existing floor space ratio, the removal of waterand soil environment will build on the capacity to support the introduction of the structure consists of transactions.In this study, fly ash from Seyitomer (UK), artificial granite waste (polishing) and using lime toas binding material, which is available on the improvement of poor soils were investigated. UK kaolin clay sample are regarded as the main flor, polishing and certain proporions of lime formed by joining a homegeneous mixture samples. The amount of lime anf fly ash samplea prepared artificially holding constant the rate 10%, 15%, and 20% rates of polishing experiments were made by adding material.Specific weight, soil classification tests and compaction tests (Atterberg limits, hydrometer, sieving) are done in laboratory for all the materials used in the study. Due to the result of the compaction test, the most propar soil sample is taken and California Bearing Ratio test is done . The soil carrying capasity is found for the new soil sample. The samples are kept with constant moisture and temperature for 1day, 7days, 14days, 28 days, 56 days periods and then the CBR tests are done. Results of the study shows that the soil sample which is pepared with kaolin clay agent increases the soil strength.
