 INTRODUCTION

Soil stabilization aims at improving soil strength and increasing resistance to softening by
water through bonding the soil particles together.


Stabilization using solid wastes is one of the different methods of treatment, to improve the
engineering properties and make it suitable for construction.

For a successful stabilization, a laboratory tests followed by field tests may be required in order
to determine the engineering and environmental properties.


Laboratory tests although may produce higher strength than corresponding material from the
field, but will help to assess the effectiveness of stabilized materials in the field.
 SUMMARY OF LITRATURE REVIEW

• From the available literature it is found that limited research has been done to study the
effects of waste ceramic dust on different geotechnical properties of expansive soil. Therefore the
present study has been undertaken to investigate the effects of waste ceramic dust on compaction
properties - optimum moisture content (OMC) and maximum dry density (MDD), soaked
California bearing ratio (CBR).The economy of stabilization has also been tudied by strengthening
the subgrade of a flexible pavement.

• From the literature it was found that the liquid limit of the three soils has been decreased by
about
(11 - 18) % with the addition of 9% RHA, while the plasticity index decreased by about (32 - 80) %.
Treatment with rice husk showed a general reduction in the maximum dry unit weight with increase
in the rice husk content to minimum values at 9% rice husk content. The optimum moisture content
generally increased with increase in the RHA content. There is enormous increase in the unconfined
compressive strength with increase in rice husk content for the soil to its maximum at RHA between
(6 – 8) %.
• From the literature the effect of applying 3% lime as an activator in combination with 15%
bagasse on the geotechnical properties of the soil for uncured and cured soil samples. The
results indicate that lime in combination with bagasse ash is suitable for improving the
plasticity index, swelling and CBR. The strength values (CBR) also increased with curing
ages, thus indicating that the blend has a potential for time-dependent increase in strength
that will reduce the quantity of stabilizer needed for the construction of roads over the
expansive soil. Therefore, this study shows that lime in combination with/plus bagasse ash
can be effectively used to improve expansive soils with low soaked CBR value and high
plasticity.
 OBJECTIVE


To determine the physical and geotechnical properties of waste material and native soil.


To determine the compaction and strength of native soil mixed with waste material.


Suggestion of ratio of waste material in native soil.


To study the performance of performed soil as a sub grade material.
 METHODOLOGY

• We will perform light compaction test to determine the dry density and water content.

• We perform california bearing test (CBR) for determining the strength of soil .

• We will perform specific gravity test by using pychnometer.

a) Wet Mixing


Applications of wet deep mixing involve binder turned into slurry form, which is then injected
into the soil through the nozzles located at the end of the soil auger.


The mixing tool comprise of drilling rod, transverse beams and a drill end with head. There are
some modifications to suit the need and applications.
 a) b) Dry Mixing


Dry mixing (DM) method is clean, quiet with very low vibration and produces no spoil for disposal
.


The method involves the use of dry binders injected into the soil and thoroughly mixed with
moist .


The soil is premixed using specialized tool during downward penetration, until it reaches the
desired depth.


During withdrawal of the mixing tool, dry binder are then injected and mixed with premixed soil
leaving behind a moist soil mix column.
 EXPECTED OUTCOME

Stabilization of expansive soil using solid wastes improves the geotechnical properties of
expansive soil.


Cheap and economical compare to other minerals.


Long term durability


Making subgrade soil imperviable.
