Improvement In Strength And Durability Of Soil Using Blast Furnace Slag And Lime
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Civil Engineering
Abstract
Sometimes when the soil is not ideal for construction purpose and creates lot of problem to civil engineer during the execution. To make the problematic soil suitable for engineering projects is known as ground improvement. In this present study effort has been made to stabilize the clayey soil using blast furnace slag and lime. Soil sample was collected from Lohatbaddi (Distt- Ludhiana, Punjab). This soil is classified as (CI) as per Indian standard classification system. Main aim of this study is to investigate the effect of lime and blast furnace slag in various proportions on unconfined compressive strength of clayey soil
Keywords
