STABILIZATION OF SOIL BY USING LIMEA Project report submitted
toJawaharlal Nehru Technological University, Anantapur In partial
fulfillment of the requirements for the award of the degree of
BACHELOR OF TECHNOLOGY IN CIVIL ENGINEERING During the academic
year 2014-2015 ABSTRACT Stabilization of soil is the process of
improving the Engineering Properties of the Soil and thus making it
more stable. It is required when the soil available for the
construction is not suitable for the intended purpose. In its
broadest senses, Stabilization includes Compaction, Pre
consolidation, Drainage and many other such processes. A cementing
material or Chemical is added to a natural soil for the purpose of
Stabilization. Soil Stabilization is used to reduce the
Permeability and Compressibility of the Soil mass in earth
structure and to increase its Shear Strength. Soil Stabilization is
required to increase the Bearing Capacity of foundation soils.
However the main use of Stabilization is to improve the Natural
Soils for the construction of Highways and Airfields.
The main purpose of adding admixtures to the soil is as follows.
To improve the Bearing Capacity of the Soil. To increase Shear
Strength of the Soil. To reduce permeability of the Soil. To reduce
Seepage of the Soil.
Test conducted: Liquid Limit Plastic Limit Direct Shear Test
