Abstract
The strength of the Kanto loam falls by agitating. Then, it is necessary to apply stabilization in order to be reused. There is short fiber-reinforced soil in one of the techniques for reinforcing the soil. If the Kanto loam can be reinforced with a short fiber, it will lead to reuse of the construction generated soil. However, research of short fiberreinforced soil is targeting sand in many cases. Therefore, the mechanical characteristic of short fiber-reinforced soil using cohesive soil is not clarified.
In this study, intended for short fiber-reinforced soil using Kanto loam in the base material, is performed unconfined compression test, the large box shear test, and were discussed reinforcing effect.
