Abstract
Soil stabilization, is a crucial aspect of civil engineering, entails the modification of soil properties to meet specific engineering standards. This is conventionally achieved through compaction and the incorporation of stabilizing agents or admixtures. Lime and cement have been predominant choices for soil stabilization, demonstrating effectiveness in altering soil properties. However, recent research has unveiled a notable shift towards the utilization of waste materials, such as fly ash and rice husk ash, for soil stabilization purposes. These waste materials, when used alone or in conjunction with lime or cement, have shown promise in achieving the desired engineering outcomes. The literature review conducted for this purpose delves into the existing body of knowledge on the utilization of waste materials in soil stabilization. Emphasizing their potential benefits, the review explores the effectiveness of these materials in altering soil properties and meeting engineering specifications. By investigating alternative stabilizing agents derived from waste materials, this research contributes to a sustainable approach in soil engineering practices. The findings presented in this paper shed light on the potential of waste materials for soil stabilization, offering a viable solution for waste disposal while addressing environmental concerns associated with traditional stabilizers.
