  By Ch. Nagu Nagu, D. S.V. Prasad, G.V.R. Prasada Raju

  Abstract: Utilization of industrial waste materials in the improvement of soils is a cost efficient and environmental friendly method. Stabilization of the expansive soil is studied by using Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) and sodium silicate. This paper includes the evaluation of soil properties like compaction, unconfined compressive strength test and California Bearing Ratio (CBR) test. Detailed experimental study has been undertaken to investigate the characteristics and behavior of expansive …
