Effective Stabilization of Expansive Soils of Varying Degrees through Optimization of Lime and RHA Incorporation

Abstract

AbstractEffective stabilization of expansive soils requires chemical reactions, beginning with surface modification (SM) of clay particles, followed by proper pozzolanic reactions (PR). These reactions are achieved by adding appropriate lime content and ...Practical ApplicationsThe practical applications of the batch test with electrical conductivity measurement presented in this study extend to optimizing lime content for stabilizing expansive soils supplemented with rice husk ash (RHA) and evaluating ...
