This study is based on the analysis of the behavior of the mechanical properties of a silty clay soil with crushed PET fibers incorporated. To understand the behavior of a soil, it is necessary to know its origin. The analyzed samples come from the subgrade layer of a highway that connects the cities of Munichis and Yurimaguas, in the region of Loreto, Peru. The material in this area usually has characteristics such as low support index, medium to high plasticity, and other characteristics that make it considered a problematic soil, this due to factors such as climate, humidity, and geographical location. To perform a precise analysis of the behavior of this soil in combination with PET, tests such as the hydrometer test, Modified Proctor and CBR with different percentages of PET, were carried out. to the mass of the sample. Each of them mainly to know well the type of sample, and the support index with each percentage incorporated. The results show that as higher the percentage of PET, the soil loses resistant characteristics, so its support index decrease, on the other hand, the lower percentage of PET used, the support index increases. In summary, to know the expected behavior, it is necessary to carry out different tests, and make use of different types of soil.
