Enhancing Strength, Durability, and Dynamic Behavior of Roads in Northeast India: Soil Stabilization Using Lime, Rice Husk Ash, and Coir Fiber Reinforcement

Abstract

Abstract Enhancing the strength and durability of clayey soil subgrades is essential for improving the long-term performance of pavements, particularly in regions prone to adverse climatic and seismic conditions. The northeastern region of India, which ... Practical Applications This study explores the stabilization of clayey soil using rice husk ash (RHA), an industrial byproduct, and coir fiber, an agricultural waste material. Improper disposal of RHA, such as open dumping, contributes to environmental ...
