Zusammenfassung:Abstract Soilwaste has become an economically viable and sustainable solution in geotechnical engineering, whereas many industrial tailings, when associated with other materials are able to satisfy the properties required in projects. This study aimed to form incorporated soil mixtures with two types of waste aiming to use them in landfill liners. Six soil-waste mixtures were developed, where the waste quantity and the compaction energy were varied. They were normal (NOR) and modified (MOD). The formulated mixtures were: 0R-NOR, 10LM-NOR, 10AG-NOR, 0R-MOD, 10LM-MOD and 10AG-MOD, where 10LM means an addition of 10% lime-mud and 10AG means an addition of 10% agricultural-gypsum, both in relation to dry soil mass. The mixtures were subjected to the variable load permeability test to verify them in terms of the required liner parameters. It is worth mentioning that both compaction energy and waste addition were able to reduce soil permeability, however, the percentage of material added to the mixture was not sufficient to reach values lower than E-07 cm/s. Resumo A incorporação de resíduos ao solo tornou-se uma solução economicamente viável e sustentável na engenharia geotécnica, uma vez que muitos rejeitos industriais quando associados a outros materiais, se demonstram capazes de sanar propriedades requeridas em projetos. Esta pesquisa objetivou formar misturas de solo incorporadas com dois tipos diferentes de resíduos com a finalidade de empregá-las em camadas impermeáveis (liners) de aterros sanitários. Desenvolveram-se 6 misturas de solo-resíduo, onde foi variado o teor de resíduo e a energia de compactação, sendo elas normal (NOR) e modificada (MOD). As misturas formuladas foram: 0R-NOR, 10LC-NOR, 10GA-NOR, 0R-MOD, 10LC-MOD e 10GA, onde 10LC significa adição de 10% de lama de cal e 10GA significa adição de 10% de gesso agrícola, ambas as adições em relação à massa seca de solo. As misturas foram submetidas ao ensaio de permeabilidade de carga variável para verificá-las quanto aos padrões requeridos para liners. Tanto a energia de compactação quanto a adição do resíduo foram capazes de reduzir a permeabilidade do solo, entretanto, a porcentagem de material adicionada à mistura não foi suficiente para atingir valores menores que E-07 cm/s.
