Abstract :The importance and number of energy structures are increasing, and due to the increasing temperature of the soil around these structures, materials that can stabilize or even optimize their resistance to temperature are needed. In this study, Standard Proctor test and thermal conductivity measurement tests of zeolite-bentonite and seaweed added mixtures were carried out by using Zostera marina sea plant, which is frequently used for thermal insulation. It was aimed to examine the seaweed additive from a thermal point of view. Thermal conductivity measurements showed that thermal conductivity increased as the seaweed contribution in the mixture increased. Also, generally the results indicated that seaweed, which has high resistance to thermal changes, is an alternative additive material that can be used in the presence of both seasonal changes and thermal changes caused by energy structures.
