| Abstract: | Soil stabilization plays a pivotal role in improving the structural integrity and load-bearing capacity of weak or problematic soils, ensuring their suitability for construction and long-term performance. Traditional stabilizers like cement and lime, though effective, are associated with significant environmental drawbacks. This research explores the innovative application of Gellan Gum (GG), an eco-friendly biopolymer, and Jute Fiber (JF), a biodegradable natural reinforcement, as sustainable agents for enhancing the geotechnical performance of alluvial soil. Various proportions of Gellan Gum (1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0%) and Jute Fiber (1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0%) were independently tested, along with combined dosages of (1.0% GG + 1.5% JF), (1.5% GG + 1.5% JF) and (2.0% GG + 1.5% JF). Additionally, the influence of Jute Fiber lengths—10 mm, 20 mm, and 30 mm—was examined. The geotechnical performance of the treated soil was evaluated using compaction characteristics (OMC–MDD relationship), California Bearing Ratio (CBR) tests under soaked and unsoaked conditions, and Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) tests. The results demonstrated that the combination of 1.5% Gellan Gum with 1.5% Jute Fiber of 20 mm length yielded the highest improvement in strength and compaction behaviour. The findings highlight the effectiveness of biopolymer–fiber synergy in improving soil performance while promoting sustainable and eco-friendly construction practices. |
