In this paper, presents of experimental tests carried out on physical and
chemical properties of cement kiln dust. Cement kiln dust is considered a
one of waste which produced in a local cement production plant
production plant Portland cement manufacturing in Assuit Cement
Company-Egypt. The main aim of this study is to examine some factors
that influence the performance of a strip footing resting on a sandy slope
by the utilization with CKD. This study aims also at establishing
relationships between the bearing capacity and the CKD percentage and
forming a database for future development of a rational design method.
The angle of the slope was taken equal to (42o). Laboratory tests on
small scale model were carried out. The experimental model was
simulated by the finite element method (FEM) using the computer
program PLAXIS. The verification of the numerical results by the
corresponding experimental results has been done to emphasis the
accuracy of the parameters used in the numerical analysis.
