Abstract. In this paper the possibility of using waste glass in road construction is
discussed. Samples of clay material with the addition of waste glass were subjected to
a series of laboratory geotechnical tests performed at the Laboratory of Geotechnics at
the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Architecture in Niš. The obtained results were
compared with criteria defined in the document “General technical requirements for
road construction”. On this basis, the conclusions on the suitability of this mixture for
the intended purpose are given.
Key words: waste glass, clayey material, road pavement, subgrade, embankment,
geotechnical testing.
1. INTRODUCTION
Traditionally soil, stone aggregates, sand, bitumen, cement etc. are used for road con-
struction. Road building plays a significant role in ever-increased demand for aggregates
used in civil engineering construction, as it accounts for about one third of the total pro-
duction. One recent e
