Abstract

Significant gains are predicted as a result  of the study because the stabilisation of soil using  industrial wastes has emerged as a serious issue in building  engineering. The current experimental work provides a  clear rationale for the acceptability of using the locally  available Rice Husk Ash (RHA) in the construction  industry in order to reduce the volume of waste that must  be disposed of to the environment, causing environmental  contamination. Because stabilising materials like cement  and lime are becoming more expensive, popular ground  restoration methods are becoming more expensive. By  substituting RHA for a sizeable amount of the stabilising  agent, the cost of stabilisation could be reduced. Risks to  the environment will also be decreased. This study  investigates the stability and compaction of stabilised soil.
