Abstract

Soil remediation methods have become one of the preferred methods due to the need for more space for construction activities in cities and industrial areas. Another reason for choosing the remediation techniques is to obtain economical and faster solutions compared to the conventional methods. In recent years, the use of chemical stabilizers in soil remediation applications, such as slope stability, erosion and bearing capacity, has increased steadily due to economy, easy application, workability and early strength gain. In this study, the effects of liquid melamine formaldehyde polymer on the strength properties of kaolinite type clay were investigated. The changes in compressive strength values were evaluated by adding liquid melamine formaldehyde polymer into the kaolinite specimens compacted at previously determined optimum water content value. The liquid polymer was added at 3, 6, 9 and 12 per cent by weight with water, so as not to exceed the optimum water content of the matrix, and the prepared polymer-added samples were cured for 3, 7, 14 and 28 days to observe the strength gain at different curing times. Significant increases were observed in the strength values of the samples stabilized with different percentages of liquid polymer subjected to unconfined compression tests at the end of the curing period as the polymer addition ratio and the curing time increased. According to the obtained results, melamine formaldehyde liquid polymer can be applied to clayey soils as a soil stabilizer.

Abstract



Zemin
iyileştirme yöntemleri, şehirler ve endüstri bölgelerinde artan yapılaşma
ihtiyacı sonucunda daha çok alan kullanımı gereksinimi nedeniyle gün geçtikçe
uygulamalarda tercih edilen yöntemlerden biri haline gelmiştir. Bir diğer
tercih sebebi ise yeni geliştirilen yöntem ve malzemeler ile geleneksel
yöntemlere göre daha ekonomik ve hızlı çözümlerin elde edilebilmesidir. Dünyada
son yıllarda kimyasal stabilizörlerin, taşıma kapasitesi, şev duraylılığı ve
erozyon gibi problemli durumlarda, zemin iyileştirme uygulamalarında kullanımı,
ekonomik oluşu, kolay uygulanması ve erken dayanım kazanma nedenleri ile
giderek artış göstermektedir. Bu çalışmada sıvı haldeki melamin formaldehit
polimerinin, kaolen türü killerin dayanım özellikleri üzerindeki etkisi incelenmiştir.
Sıvı melamin formaldehit polimerinin optimum su muhtevasında sıkıştırılmış kaolen
örnekler içerisine eklenerek serbest basınç dayanımlarındaki değişimler araştırılmıştır.
Sıvı polimer yüzde 3, 6, 9 ve 12 oranlarında örneklere optimum su muhtevasını
geçmeyecek şekilde, su ile yer değiştirerek eklenmiş ve hazırlanan polimer
katkılı örnekler 3, 7, 14 ve 28 gün boyunca küre tabii tutulmuşlardır. Kür
süresi sonunda serbest basınç testlerine tabii tutulan farklı yüzdeler ile
stabilize edilmiş örneklerde, polimer katkı oranı ve kür süresi arttıkça
dayanımlarda ciddi artışlar tespit edilmiştir. Elde edilen bu sonuca göre melamin
formaldehit sıvı polimer katkısı zemin iyileştirme yöntemi olarak killi
zeminlere uygulanabilecektir.
