Abstract
Abstract The available clayey soil or the cohesive soil often possess such properties which do not fulfill the engineering requirements of all such activities. Due to which improvement in soil properties are required by a technique known as Soil Stabilization. It is a process to treat asoil to maintain or improve the performance of soil as a construction material. Stabilization can increase the shear strength of a soil and or control the shrink-swell properties of a soil, thus improving the load bearing capacity of a sub-grade to support pavements and foundations. Soil stabilization can be utilized on roadways, parking areas, site development projects, airports and many other situations where sub-soils are not suitable for construction. stabilization can be used to treat a wide range of sub-grade materials, varying from expansive clays to granular materials. This process is accomplished using a wide variety of additives, including lime, fly-ash, calcium carbide and portland cement. Other material byproducts used in stabilization include fly ash and calcium carbide residue.
