Efficient & effective improvement and stabilization of clay soil with waste materials

Abstract

Soil is a vital substance for all creatures in the world, soil has vast usage in different part such as agriculture, civil work, foundation, Bridges, Embankment, Buildings, Canals, Tunneling and etc.Soil has different classes and types all types of soil cannot fulfill all requirement of engineering properties and cannot stand against the properties such as mechanical strength, permeability, durability, plasticity, compressibility and etc. among the different classes of soil clay soil is a weak soil which has less shear strength and should be stabilized.Stabilization of soil is a techniques and ways for improvement of engineering and other properties of clay soil, clay soil is really a problematic soil for civil engineering and other field works due to its less strength, shrinkages and swelling behavior. Many waste materials are available for stabilizing and strengthening of clay soil which is economic and beneficial for improvement of clay soil. We accurately analysis and incorporate this research paper base on indirect methodology (Secondary data) and extracted that many waste material such as Nano-Silica, white cement, Fly ash classes family, Lim, Copper slag, Red mud, Blast furnace Slag and so on are available for stabilizing of clay soil which is eco friend, economic and easy found in site and market. Related secondary data are elaborated and suitable techniques of stabilization of clay soil are also discussed.
