What is Coir Fiber Reinforcement in Expansive Clay about?
This study investigates the use of coconut coir fibers to enhance the bearing capacity and tensile strength of expansive clay. The research found that the optimal fiber content for improving the California Bearing Ratio (CBR) was 1%, resulting in significant increases in both soaked and unsoaked CBR values. However, swelling values increased with the addition of coir fibers, indicating that chemical stabilization may be necessary to mitigate swelling in expansive clay.
