Collapsible loess-like and concrete breccia is a rare special soil type in China, which is widely distributed in Baoji area. The paper preliminarily studied its collapsibility mechanism and engineering properties. The experimental results show that mixing 30% concrete crushed gravel has the best compressive effect and the best bearing ratio in California. Scanning by electron microscope found that after collapsible loess was mixed with concrete gravel, as the proportion of concrete increased, its internal structural stability increased. Concrete gravel recycling projects in subgrade engineering in collapsible loess areas have a certain feasibility, and its economic value is great. In future studies, it can be studied for higher proportions of concrete gravel.
