Abstract
Abstract: Soil enhancement methods offer engineers solutions for addressing stability issues encountered during project execution. Rather than employing traditional soil treatment techniques, soil stabilization focuses on enhancing the inherent characteristics of the soil. Currently, polysaccharide biopolymers like xanthan gum, guar gum, welan gum, beta glucan, and chitosan are utilized in soil behavior enhancement to mitigate environmental concerns. Biopolymers show promise in improving soil shear strength and reducing subsidence potential at varying water contents. The effectiveness of treatment relies on factors such as soil composition and the specific biopolymer used.
