DoE Title The Effects of Pulverized Eggshells to the Stability of the Soil
This DoE aims to:
1) Conduct a design experiment with the use of California Bearing
Ratio Test in determining the strength of the soil using
Experimental pulverized eggshells as soil admixtures.
Design Objectives 2) Develop a conclusion and recommendation regarding the results
of the design experiment.
3) Discuss the effects of pulverized eggshells to the properties of
the soil.
Input Factors
Without the This factor considers the strength of the soil without the pulverized
pulverized eggshells eggshells as soil admixtures using the California Bearing Ratio Test.
With 5% pulverized This factor considers the strength of the soil with 5% pulverized
eggshells eggshells as soil admixtures using the California Bearing Ratio Test.
With 10% pulverized This factor considers the strength of the soil with 10% pulverized
eggshells eggshells as soil admixtures using the California Bearing Ratio Test.
With 15% pulverized This factor considers the strength of the soil with 15% pulverized
eggshells eggshells as soil admixtures using the California Bearing Ratio Test.
With 20% pulverized This factor considers the strength of the soil with 20% pulverized
eggshells eggshells as soil admixtures using the California Bearing Ratio Test.
With 25% pulverized This factor considers the strength of the soil with 25% pulverized
eggshells eggshells as soil admixtures using the California Bearing Ratio Test.
Output Responses
Without the The output considered here is the California Bearing Ratio of the soil
pulverized eggshells without any soil admixtures, in which will be compared with the other
soil samples having percentages of pulverized eggshells present in the
sample if there will be any improvement to the strength of the soil.
With 5% pulverized The output considered here is the California Bearing Ratio of the soil
eggshells with 5% soil admixtures, in which will be compared with the other soil
samples having percentages of pulverized eggshells present in the
sample if there will be any improvement to the strength of the soil.
With 10% pulverized The output considered here is the California Bearing Ratio of the soil
eggshells with 10% soil admixtures, in which will be compared with the other soil
samples having percentages of pulverized eggshells present in the
sample if there will be any improvement to the strength of the soil.
With 15% pulverized The output considered here is the California Bearing Ratio of the soil
eggshells with 15% soil admixtures, in which will be compared with the other soil
samples having percentages of pulverized eggshells present in the
 sample if there will be any improvement to the strength of the soil.
With 20% pulverized The output considered here is the California Bearing Ratio of the soil
eggshells with 20% soil admixtures, in which will be compared with the other soil
samples having percentages of pulverized eggshells present in the
sample if there will be any improvement to the strength of the soil.
With 25% pulverized The output considered here is the California Bearing Ratio of the soil
eggshells with 25% soil admixtures, in which will be compared with the other soil
samples having percentages of pulverized eggshells present in the
sample if there will be any improvement to the strength of the soil.
Design Statistics
Simple Comparison It is a method of designing experiments involving the testing of factors,
(one-factor-at-a-time) or causes, one at a time instead of multiple factors simultaneously. The
OFAT method is considered as the standard, systematic, and accepted
method of scientific experimentation. This method consists of selecting
a starting point, or baseline set of levels, for each factor, then
successively varying each factor over its range with the other factors
held constant at the baseline level.
Testing Standards
(If Applicable)
American Society of ASTM D1883-16. This is the standard test method for California
Testing and Materials Bearing Ratio (CBR) of laboratory-compacted soils.
