摘要

In present scenario, industrialization has reached its peak by different construction industry in turn producing huge amount of industrial waste. Different types of industrial wastes such as fly ash, marble dust, red mud, ferrochrome slag, and crusher dust are produced in daily basis affecting environment, and their disposal is also a big problem for the society. In alternate, their use in foundation of a structure or below road pavement or filling of an embankment can be a better utilization in bulk. In the present work, crusher dust has been used as a foundation material and bearing capacity of surface square footing has been analysed on crusher dust slope by numerical approach using Plaxis 2D. Here the foundation material is considered in a loose density of 29% with a slope ground of 3H:2V with b = B from the crest (b = placing of footing distance from the crest of slope). The ultimate bearing capacity was obtained with and without reinforced condition. Also the reinforcement type was varied, and depth of layer below footing was optimized to get the ultimate load carrying capacity. For geogrid reinforcement, the depth of layer was varied as 0.25B, 0.5B for single and for double layer of reinforcement, respectively, and similarly for geotextile, it was varied with 0.25, 0.5B for single, double, and triple layer of reinforcement. It was found to be optimized at a depth of 0.5B for single layer and not showing improvement for double layer of geogrid reinforcement. Also it was optimized at 0.5B for single layer and 0.25B for double layer of geotextile reinforcement. The analysis shows the superiority of geotextile over geogrid.
