3- INFLUENCE OF STRENGTH AND MECHANICAL BEHAVIOR OF BAGASSE ASH AND HYDRATED LIME
STABILIZED EXPANSIVE SOIL
(Dang, L.C., et al., 2015): In their study have tried to stabilize the soil by using Sugarcane Bagasse Ash (SCBA)
and hydrated lime. Both these materials had been obtained from Queensland Australia. Percentages of
Sugarcane Bagasse Ash (SCBA) varying from 0 to 25% were used along with different contents of hydrated
lime. Atterberg limits, compaction, UCS, linear shrinkage tests were conducted on base soil and treated soil to
demonstrate the change in mechanical and strength properties of expansive clay. The results show a
considerable increase in the strength as well as mechanical properties as the Hydrated Lime-Bagasse Ash
content increases.
