The primary purpose of this research is to investigate the use of waste fibre composites in round improvement and to assess the efficacy of refuse polypropylene fibres on the shear strength of unsaturated soil. Both of these objectives will be accomplished through the course of this investigation. Stabilization is necessary for this soil in order to strengthen its strength and durability and to stop the soil from eroding. First comes the evaluation of the unconfined compressive strength as well as the proctor test. After that, a battery of Proctor and UCS tests are carried out in order to determine whether or not the incorporation of fibre into soil improves the strength properties of the soil. The findings have been analysed and interpreted in terms of the stress-strain behaviour, the fluctuation of failure strain-stress, the influence of fibre content, and other strength characteristics. This study demonstrates that using polypropylene fibre in varying percentages for the aim of boosting soil properties is beneficial because it represents a major improved performance in both the compressive and shear strengths of the soil. As a result, the use of polypropylene fibre in these percentages is advantageous. The use of genetic programming to construct models on the basis of the data that was measured. The explicit GP model that was developed will be helpful in determining the optimal input values that will lead to the production of safe and robust bearing stratum.
