Abstract |
|
Clayey soils are associated with many undesirable engineering properties. To make it useful most common ways are reduction of plasticity and water holding capacity. This study is to find the trend of variation in properties of clayey soil (non-swelling) while adding fine quarry dust and quicklime together and separately into it. It is mainly focussed on plasticity characteristics and Optimum moisture content to give maximum dry density. |
