ABSTRACT

Geocell and iron steel slag is use for construction of rural road and improve the quality of road in all weathering condition for the rural traffic. Steel slag is a by-product from steel industry. It has been declared as useful construction material, not an indusial waste by most of the developed countries. Successively, it is recycled as an aggregate for construction of road, base and for the surfacing of flexible pavement. In this project, novel construction of rural road with high density polyethylene i.e. geocell and indusial steel slag by honeycomb shape of geocell compartment and filling the industrial steel slag as an aggregate to construct the road. The main purpose of the project is to construct the better quality rural road. The project is evaluate the behavior of Geocell And Steel Slag Road ? Compressive strength, Settlement of sub grad, Condition of wearing surface, and properties of aggregate and geocell. The goal of our project research is to construct the road for the rural area at minimum cost with low maintains and longer life span with better srviceability. When the geocell is use in a road, it increases the load carrying capacity of road which is suitable for the rural traffic. This project work is conducted in Wardha city located at 20.74530 N & 78.60220 E. Sawangi Datta Meghe Institute of Engineering Technology and Research in Wardha.
