RESUMEN: Este estudio presenta una discusión sobre tres importantes modelos de mezclas y se establecen sus capacidades predictivas para varias mezclas de suelo modificado con cenizas de carbón. Específicamente, este estudio se centra en la capacidad de los modelos de mezclas para predecir características de humedad-densidad de rellenos compactados con diferentes porcentajes de cenizas. Los resultados de este estudio muestran que el comportamiento de las mezclas es una función del contenido de cenizas y de la fracción de cada componente en el total de la mezcla. Este enfoque es una respuesta del gran énfasis puesto en incorporar la sostenibilidad en la ingeniería geotécnica. Específicamente, se espera que los resultados de este estudio sean usados para facilitar un mayor uso de las cenizas en construcción de obras geotécnicas.
