Abstract
In this study, soil stabilisation was accomplished using sugarcane straw ash (SCSA). Various percentages of the sugarcane straw ash were used, including 0 percent, 2.5 percent, 5 percent, 7.5 percent, and 10 percent. Laboratory tests were conducted for both conditions, that is, with and without the SCSA mentioned above, including the pycnometer method for specific gravity testing, the oven dry method for determining moisture content, the liquid limit, plastic limit, plasticity index, modified proctor test, California bearing ratio, and unconfined compressive strength. These tests were conducted according to the standards of IS 2720.After conducting all the tests, we finally compared the standard results with the soil taken for stabilization and found that the strength of the soil replaced with 7.5% SCSA had been greater.
