REVIEW ON STABILIZATION OF SOIL BY GROUND GRANULATED BLAST SLAG

Er.Rehana Rasool,Er.Kshipra Kapoor

Abstract

In developing country like India due to the remarkable development in road infrastructure, Soil stabilization has become the major issue in construction activity. Stabilization is an unavoidable for the purpose of highway and runway construction, stabilization denotes improvement in both strength and durability which are related to performance. Soil stabilization means alteration of the soils properties to meet the specified engineering requirements. Methods for the stabilization are compaction and use of admixtures. Lime, Cement was commonly used as stabilizer for altering the properties of soils. Reuse of waste materials have been advocated for quite a while now and the utilization of industrial wastes in improving the properties of poor soils open up a new avenue for solid waste management. Expansive soils have been one of the most problematic soils encountered by a Civil Engineer. A lot of techniques are available for stabilization of such poor soils including lime and cement stabilization. However, the utilization of solid wastes in soil stabilization is an area of potential and promise. And it also provides the double advantage of waste management along with soil improvement. In this study, we reviewed the Grand granulated blast slag in soil to enhance its mechanical properties and make it more suitable for use. In this paper, we studied the effect of stabilized soil and changes in its mechanical properties.
