Abstract

With the significant increase of construction activities in the road sector, the scenario has awakened the need for typical good quality soils for subgrade construction which are deficient in supply at many locations for numerous reasons. In this research activity, comprehensive study in the laboratory has been carried out to examine the use of fly ash and GGBS (Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag) to stabilize alluvial soils. Multiple influential properties such as UCS, CBR, Permeability, swelling potential, Compaction characteristics, and Atterberg limits were found for control samples and compared with the samples of distinct sequences of different percentages of Fly ash and GGBS ratio and on different curing periods. All the tests are performed by varying the Fly ash content to 5%,15%,25%,35% and 45% while keeping the GGBS content constant at 5% to the weight of dry soil. There is a remarkable change in the shear strength of the soil as the UCS value increased by 150% and the CBR value increased by 389% when the control sample is compared with those of treated samples with 35% Flyash+5% GGBS
