The main objective of this case study is to explore the use of waste raw materials in different types of soil found in our surroundings and to evaluate the effects of waste raw material polypropylene fiber. There are several types of soil found in our surroundings such as hard soil, clayey soil, sandy soil, loose soil and so on. There is greater strength in the hard soil but in the loose soil there need to increase the strength of the unsaturated soil. This case study is done on the loose soil to increase in the shear strength of the unsaturated soil by carrying types of lab experiments tests soil sample. And the process through out the soil stabilization helps to acquire the required properties in the soil needed in the construction work. Structures that are constructed on the expansive soil may have occurred several damages due to its hill swell-shrinkage behavior. So, these types of soil need to be stabilized in order to increase the shear strength of the soil, durability of the soil as well to prevent from the erosion. Various case studies have been carried out for these types of soil to increase the soil properties. In this case study raw fiber known as polypropylene fiber have been used to increase the soil properties and interlocking of the soil and has become the one of the major practices used in construction work.
