Abstract: In today's world where climate changes are common, negative changes are observed in geotechnical properties in parallel with this change in soils that form the basis of engineering structures. This negative situation reveals the necessity of strengthening the soils with weak geotechnical properties. For this purpose, natural, synthetic, or various chemicals are used as additional additives. In this study, Bayburt stone (Bayburt tuffite), a natural rock, was pulverized and added to clayey soil with high plasticity and the changes in uniaxial unconfined compressive strength were investigated. Clay soil (CS) mixtures reinforced with Bayburt stone powder (BTP) in three different ratios (5%, 10%, and 15% dry weight) were cured in a laboratory environment (+20oC) for 7, 14, and 28 days. At the end of these three different curing times, the unconfined compressive strength (UCS) values of the samples were obtained with a uniaxial unconfined pressure device. When the strength values obtained were examined, it was observed that the highest strength was 34.38% with the mixture of CS + 5% BTP at the end of 28 days of curing. After this mixture, at the end of the 28-day cure, the other highest strengths; It was determined as 18.75% in the CS+10 BTP mixture and 10.94% in the CS+15 BTP mixture.
