Abstract

This study is an attempt to examine proper usage of GGBS in the field of Civil Engineering to reduce existing dumping problems and escalate the geotechnical properties of inadequate soil. According to laboratory findings, certain soil qualities that were treated with MgO and GGBS at specific concentrations exhibited remarkably beneficial changes when compared to natural soil. The compressive strength value of modified soil improved, showing increase in the bearing capacity of treated soil The increased CBR value of modified soil both in soaked (4 days) and unsoaked condition indicates the economical designing of flexible pavement by reducing the thickness of base and subbase layers.
