Abstract
Black Cotton Soil (BCS) is particularly rapid-expanding and swelling when it meets water. This trait of soil results in extremely low soil strength and other attributes. Soil stabilization by various stabilizers is required to enhance its characteristics. Stabilization is a technique used to improve the soil's structural integrity. Soil stabilization raises the subgrade's load-bearing capacity, allowing it to better support the pavement and foundation. This is accomplished by increasing the soil's shear strength and regulating its shrink-swell qualities. Expansive soils could have their engineering qualities enhanced via several different means. The problematic soils are either excavated and replaced with excellent, higher-quality material, or treated with an additive. This paper demonstrates an analysis for soil improvement in problematic BCS by using dry Kota Stone Slurry (KSS) and Fly Ash (FA). FA is a byproduct of coal combustion in thermal power plants. It consists of fine particles that are carried away with the flue gases during the combustion process. The findings highlight its potential to address soil-related issues, enhance agricultural productivity, and contribute to sustainable land utilization practices.
