This paper investigates the shear properties of bottom ash-crumb rubber mixture reinforced with waste fishing net. Mixtures used in this experiment were prepared at 2 different percentages of crumb rubber (2 mm~10 mm) content (i.e., 0%, 50% by weight of the dry bottom ash). In this study several series of triaxial tests were carried out on the six different specimens : unreinforced bottom ash, reinforced bottom ash with 1 or 2 layers, unreinforced mixture, reinforced mixture with 1 or 2 layers. The experimental results indicated that the shear properties of bottom ash-crumb rubber mixture were strongly influenced by reinforcing layer of waste fishing net and crumb rubber addition. It is shown that the internal friction angle of bottom ash-crumb rubber mixture decrease with addition of crumb rubber due to the compression properties of crumb rubber. However, the internal friction angle of the mixture increased with an increase in reinforcing layer due to interlocking effect and friction between mixture and waste fishing net.
