Abstract

In this study effect of GGBS and sisal fiber on clayey soil is investigated. Different percentage of GGBS and sisal fiber is added to soil and its effect on various properties of soil is analyzed. Clayey soil shrinks and swells to a large extant with change in moisture content. Clayey soils are highly compressible and possess low shearing strength and very low bearing capacity. The locally available clayey soil collected from Govind Pura, Bhopal area and is used for experimental work. GGBS and sisal fiber has been used for soil stabilization.
