Abstract |
|
Soil stabilization is a technique aimed at increasing or maintaining the stability of a soil mass or otherwise improving its engineering properties. In the present investigation, the behavior of Black Cotton (BC) soil with and without stabilization was studied. A chemical named Terrasil was used as stabilizer. Cement has also been used as a stabilizer. In this study soil with variable dosages were tested for stabilization process and strength of the stabilized soil has been evaluated after curing period. The tests were carried out to determine the consistency limits, CBR value of the soil specimens with and without stabilizers for a curing period. |
