Investigating the ways of using sand materials in compacted layers in the irrigation and drainage network (case study fiber glass pipe)

The discussion of earthworks and irrigation and drainage projects is very important from a technical and economic point of view. In the Southwest Khuzestan pipeline project with ۲۳۰ kilometers of G.R.P. pipes, it is effective to provide the volume of earth materials for earthling around the pipe and also earthling to ensure the depth of the trench before trenching. Due to the presence of sand materials in the region, in this research, these materials were used in earthworks around the pipe in different ways, including compaction by compactor and also compaction by flooding method, and the results showed that it is possible to use sand materials with fine grains less than He compacted ۱۲% in the form of flooding and up to a density of ۸۵%. Also, in order to provide the depth of the trench, you can mix sand materials with different percentages of clay so that the percentage of different salts such as gypsum, sulfate, and chlorine is reduced and the specific weight of the clay is increased. Different methods of moistening soil materials were compared in order to provide optimal moisture, including moistening at the borrow site and on the road. The effect of humidity on the density of soils with different grain sizes was also compared. The results showed that in clay materials, if the moisture content is more than ۳% less than the optimum moisture content, it is difficult to compensate it by tamping. In the earthen layers made with fine-grained materials, traffic has a more negative effect on the density of the layer. The coarser the materials, the less impact traffic and passage of time will have. Also, the study of cross-sections showed that in sandy fields, the best way to protect the roads from the influx of quicksand is to follow the natural slope of the land as much as possible and to avoid earthmoving or earthmoving at a high height as much as possible.
