A REVIEW STUDY ON THE SOIL STABLIZATION WITH CEMENT AND LIME
Rakesh , Ar. Sukhmanjit
Abstract
Soil stabilization can be explained as the alteration of the soil properties by chemical or physical means in order to enhance the engineering quality of the soil. The main objective of the soil stabilization is to increase the bearing capacity of the soil, its resistance to weathering process and soil permeability. The long-term performance of any construction project depends on the soundness of the underlying soils. Unstable soils can create significant problems for pavements or structures. Therefore soil stabilization techniques are necessary to ensure the good stability of soil so that it can successfully sustain the load of the superstructure especially in case of soil which is highly active. Clayey soil which is also major type of expansive soil has a very weird property of swelling and shrinking in presence and absence of water or moisture. The best way to stabilize such type of soil is to disturb the soil sample by physically adding an additive. The additive added should be cheap, effective, and environmental friendly and easily available in large quantity. In this paper the brief of studies is made on researches by various authors.
