Abstract

Present study is aimed at improving the engineering properties of b.c soil under the influence of sea sand, lime, plastic waste. The engineering properties of b.c soil are observed with various proportions of the stabilizers. Changes in various soil properties like free swell index, liquid limit, plastic limit, optimum moisture content (OMC) and maximum dry density (MDD), California bearing ratio (CBR) of soil were analyzed. Laboratory tests were conducted on various proportions of stabilizers lime (2%,4%,6%) plastic waste(2%,4%,6%) and sea sand (5%,10%,15%,20%,25%,30%,35%,40%,45%,50%) of mixes with soil. So finally to we expecting get better results after stabilizing black cotton soil with Sea sand and lime, plastic waste then compare to normal black cotton soil.
