Abstract

Soil stabilization is always a challenging task for the engineers, in this project we are dealing with the stabilization of expansive soils with the help of Sugar Cane Bagasse Ash (SCBA), Hydrated Lime Powder and Bitumen. Different tests are carried out for the determination of the properties of the soil sample as well as the admixtures. The experiments carried out are Grain Size Analysis, Atterbergs Limit, Optimum Moisture Content (OMC) and Maximum Dry Density (MDD), Free Swell Index (FSI) and California Bearing Ratio (CBR). In this paper we use all these mentioned admixtures so that their percentage play crucial role for stabilize the soil this will help in increasing the stability of soil mechanically.
