Strength properties of soft clay treated with mixture of nano-SiO2 and recycled polyester fiber

This paper investigates the effect of recycled polyester fiber, produced from polyethylene (PET) bottles, in combination with nano-SiO2 as a new stabilizer to improve the mechanical properties of soils. We intend to study the effect of adding nano-SiO2 and recycled polyester fiber on soil engineerin...
