The influence of quarry dust on compaction characteristics of expansive clay is presented in Fig. 8b, c, respectively. It can be recognised that, addition of quarry dust to expansive clay increases its maximum dry density and decreases optimum moisture content irrespective of its percentage added to natural soil. The increase in maximum dry ...

Concrete mechanical properties could be improved through adding different materials at the mixing stage. Quarry dust (QD) is the waste produced by manufactured sand machines and comprise approximately 30–40% of the total quantity of QD generated. When it dries, it transforms into a fine dust that poses a tremendous hazard to the …

The decrease in OMC could be attributed to the cohesiveness of the soil and quarry dust due to a higher heat of hydration rate as compaction increases, which …
The objective of this paper is to investigate the effect of quarry dust addition of different gradations on the compaction behavior of clay of different compressibility.
Soosan et al. have studied the effect of different percentages of quarry dust on compaction characteristics of three different soils and observed an increase in MDD values and decrease in OMC values with increase in dust content in the soil-dust mixes. The optimum range of quarry dust content in soil was found to be 40–60%.
The majority of municipal solid waste (MSW) generated in Sri Lanka is disposed in open dump yards. Compaction of wastes at such open dumps is the main factor that controls short-term density and ...
The results of BSL, WAS, and BSH compaction energies as presented in Fig. 6, show that for all cement contents up to 8 %, a slight increase in the UCS peaked at 8 % quarry dust contents. For the three compactive efforts, this percentage increase was 803.4, 424.5, and 351.6 %.
