Abstract
In order to investigate a recycling possibility as a construction material of oyster-shells, the geotechnical characteristics including N-value, confined compression and shear strength for oyster shell mixed soils were quantitatively examined. Experimental results show that the oyster shell mixed soils are lighter than sand in weight, and have similar characteristics of shear strength with sandy soils. Based on the experimental results, it is highly judged that crushed oyster-shell can be a substitute of sand as the SCP method.
