T. Sindri, Dhanbad, India *** Abstract - There is fast increase in consumption, production of plastic all over the world leading to the large generation of waste plastic. The correct manner of disposing without occurring any ecological hazard is very challenging. Soil stabilization using admixtures like cement, lime, minerals etc. increases the cost tremendously in recent years, therefore there is a need for using plastic as an additive. Fiber reinforcement now a days emerged as an important method in geotechnical engineering for improving the strength of the soil. So, the main objective is to investigate the use of waste plastics (polypropylene fiber) reinforcement in stabilization of soil for enhancing the engineering properties of the soil, which also helps in reducing the plastic waste. Several tests such as compaction characteristics, unconfined compression test (UCS), direct shear test, and California Bearing ratio (CBR) tests are performed to determine the fiber's effectiveness and the result shows that waste fiber is very effective in enhancing properties of soil.

The most important part of the entire structure is the foundation for any land based structure.

Due to not having suitable bearing capacity or engineering properties the soil should be suitably treated or stabilizedtoimprovethepropertiesofsoil.
