Use of construction waste and fibers alternative technologies for soil treatment, seeking more sustainable materials for risk areas: a systematic review of the literature

Abstract

In recent years, there has been disorderly growth in the country's main cities, and among the regions highlighted, the Northeast is the second with the highest number of inhabitants in risk areas. Disasters such as flooding and penetration of slopes have been recurrent in recent years, although these problems have a natural origin and are influenced by human activities. This is also the process of generating solid waste, affecting the acceleration of sustainable development and the safety of residents in these environments. The objective of this research is to carry out a Systematic Literature Review (RSL) to analyze the most relevant factors that are profound for penetration, as well as improving the soil by incorporating construction waste (RCC) and fibers. A search was carried out in some databases, limited to scientific articles, review articles and dissertations in the area of ​​civil engineering in the last 6 years (2018-2023), resulting in 42 articles. From the results it was possible to analyze that the main factors that influence the penetration of slopes are human actions. Finally, the incorporation of RCC and fibers into the soil obtained impressive results, as the increase in resistance with the incorporation of these materials acted effectively and beneficially on the properties of the soil.
