Abstract
In developing countries like India, Industrialization is rising rapidly, and also a great paucity of land is there, the demand for exploitation of industrial wastes which coming from industries is increasing. From geotechnical perspective, fly ash, granite and quarry waste, cement kiln dust, silica fume, rice husk etc. are the waste materials which have effectual features requisites by an excellent soil stabilization admixture. Stabilization using solid wastes is one of the different methods of treatment, to improve the engineering properties and make it suitable for construction. This paper briefs about the recent trends in stabilization of expansive soil using industrial waste (granite and quarry waste, cement kiln dust, silica fume, rice husk) as stabilizers for decreasing the environmental hazards.
Highlights
Stabilization is the process of mixing the material with soil to improve the soil strength and durability
Plastic limit of black cotton soil was increased by 9.58% for 2.5%, FeCl3, 15% fly ash and 25% stone dust addition to black cotton soil and the results show that there was a increase in maximum dry density of black cotton soil from 1.624 g/cm3 to 1.915 g/cm3 for 2.5%, FeCl3, 15% fly ash and 25% stone dust addition to black cotton soil
It is possible to use of the Cement Kiln Dust (CKD) as partial replacement of PC, in combination with pozzolanic materials, like fly ash, blast furnace slag, etc., in certain mortar mixed designs without lowering the main characteristics of the product
