This thesis evaluates the mechanical behavior of a clay soil mixed with crushed PET. The potential use of this waste material in geotechnical applications may ultimately reduce the problem of improper disposal and improve the strength and deformation characteristics of the soil. Polyethylene terephthalate, PET, and clayey soil from the province of Tarapoto were used. The shear strength parameters that define the mechanical properties of soil are the internal friction angle and cohesion. While constructing any civil engineering structure, those parameters usually do not adjust to the requirements of the Project, therefore, there must be a solution for the soil stability in any civil work. This thesis was carried out in three stages, the first was the collection of information, the second the laboratory phase, carrying out standard Proctor tests (density - humidity), direct cutting (angle of friction and cohesion), liquid limit, limit plastic and granulometry; and finally the analysis of the results. The clayey soil used was mixed with 5%, 10% and 20% of crushed PET by dry weight. The percentages of PET increased the soil support capacity.
