Comparative Study on Stabilization of Expansive Soil using Cement Kiln Dust and Ceramic Dust
Abstract: In India, expansive soils cover about 20% of total land area, these soils increase in volume (swell) during winter season and decrease in volume (shrink) during summer season. Due to this contradiction behaviour many civil engineering structures constructed on expansive soils get damaged severely, out of which pavement is the most because they are lightweight and extend over large areas. Stabilization of Expansive soil is of most importance, since to …
