Abstract

Soil stabilization is one of the methods of soil improvement that has been used since ancient times in human history. Soil mass reinforced with randomly distributed discrete fibers is one of the techniques for improving the properties of soils. Reinforcing the soil with randomly distributed discrete fibers has attracted the attention of many researchers over the past few decades. For this purpose, many studies have been carried out with fibers obtained from synthetic, natural and waste materials. Studies on soil reinforced with discrete fibers have revealed the effect of fibers are beneficial to strength parameters of soils. In this study multivariate regression analysis were performed by using data from literature to formulate the effect of fibers on the soil. The formulas obtained from multivariate regression analyses are in harmony with the values of unconfined compression and shear strength.
