The thesis titled "Chemical Stabilization of Washed Recycled Sand in Geotechnical Fill Applications" investigates methods to enhance the stability and performance of washed recycled sand derived from construction waste. This research explores innovative chemical treatments to improve the material's suitability for use in geotechnical applications, such as filling and support layers in pavement projects. The benefits of this work include reducing waste in landfills and promoting the use of sustainable materials by adopting green binders. By improving the mechanical performance of stabilized washed recycled sand, this research supports environmental sustainability and contributes to more eco-friendly construction practices.
