Black Cotton Soils

Expansive Black cotton clay soils are widely distributed worldwide, and are a significant damage to infrastructure and buildigs.It is a common practice around the world to stabilize black cotton soil using fly ash to improve the strength of stabilized sub- base and sub grade soil. Soil stabilization is the improvement of strength or bearing capacity of soil by controlled compaction, proportioning or addition of suitable admixtures or stabilizers. The Black cotton soils are extremely hard when dry, but lose its strength fully when in wet condition. In monsoon they guzzle water and swell and in summer they shrink on evaporation of water from there. Because of its high Swelling and shrinkage characteristics the black cotton soils has been a challenge to the highway engineers.So in this research paper fly ash has been used to improve the various strength properties of natural black cotton soil.The objective of this research paper is to improve the engineering properties of black cotton soil by adding different percentage of fly ash by the weight of soil and make it suitable for construction. A series of standard Proctor tests (for calculation of MDD and OMC) and California Bearing Ratio (C.B.R) tests are conducted on both raw Black cotton soil and mixed soil with different percentages of fly ash (5%, 10%, 20%, 30%) by weight. A comparison between properties of raw black cotton soil, black cotton soil mixed with fly ash are performed .It is found that the properties of black cotton soil mixed with fly ash are suitably enhanced.

Abstract: Soil stabilization has become the more issue in construction activity. In this study we focus on improvement of soil by using Fly ash and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS). In many villages there was demolition of houses due to flood situation and landslide so stabilization of soil is very important factor in this area. In these studies we use local Fly ash and Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) for stabilization of soil. Soil are generally stabilized to increase their strength and durability or to prevent soil erosion. The properties of soil vary a great deal at different places or in certain cases even at one place the success of soil stabilization depends on soil testing. Various methods are there to stabilize soil and the method should be verified in the lab with the soil material before applying it on the field. The various percentages of Fly ash and GGBS were mixed with soil sample to conduct soil test. Using fly ash reduces the plasticity index which has potential impact on engineering properties also GGBS has cementations property which acts as binding material for the soil. On addition of 15% Fly ash and 5% GGBS increase the strength of soil (according to IS2720:1985) it’s recommended for better result.

Excessive use of materials, leads to industrialization, which has an adverse impact on the environment. From industries, large amount of chemicals or other suspended particles as a waste are produced, which are mostly dumped that acquires large space leading to deterioration of soil properties. So, we should use these waste for some constructive or useful purposes. As steel industry releases waste with some good engineering properties so, we can use this type of waste with soil which has low strength and does not have good engineering properties. Various techniques are available like soil stabilization, providing reinforcement etc. to improve load bearing capacity of soil. Soil stabilization is one of the modification techniques used to improve the geotechnical properties of soil and has become the major practice in construction engineering which enables the effective utilization of industrial wastes as a stabilizer. This technique becomes more popular because of its easy availability and adaptability. In this study, the steel slag (an industrial waste) is mixed with Clay(CI), Lateritic(A-7-6(5)) , Black cotton clay soil to enhance its strength properties and make them more suitable for use. In this way industrial waste can be reduced economically.

Expansive soil (Black cotton soil) is very weak and does not have enough stability for any type of construction work. To make the subgrade soil stable, by improving its engineering properties is very essential. In the present work, stabilization of subgrade soil by using Sand and Cement varying percentage of cement as 2%, 3%, 5% and constant percentage of sand by weight of soil, Rice Husk of 5%, 7%, 10%, and Lime is used to enhance the strength of subgrade soil. The purpose of this study is to determine the optimum dose of the stabilizer, which improves the strength and bearing capacity of soil less which is suitable for pavement structure. To evaluate the strength of soil, various tests have been performed such as Sieve analysis, Liquid limit, Plastic limit, Specific gravity, Compaction (OMC, MDD) and CBR test in the laboratory. The result shows that the use of the above materials in combination increases the California Bearing Ratio values (CBR). By using the CBR value the design of pavements to carry traffic in the range of 1 to 10 msa and 10 – 150 msa is calculated as per IRC: 37 – 2001.

Properties Of Soil

Expansive soil implies low bearing capacity and high swelling property perhaps causes serious problems during construction includes low stability, non-uniform settlements and shear distribution. The soil stabilization is one such method to improve the process and it depends upon the soil condition and the nature of soil according to the desired requirements of footing. This study aims to increase the index and engineering properties of soil by addition of the natural fiber (sisal), lime and silica fume. Soil stabilization by lime involves the admixture in the form of calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide to the soil and silica fume as an industrial waste by product acts as a pore filling material. The project is economically viable because the stabilizing materials are easily available and less cost. This project is also analyzed by using the PLAXIS software.

Abstract Soil is the most important and basic element of earth. In India which have more type of soil which have low or high bearing capacity like black cotton soil which have high montmorillonite and kalinite. These are those type of soil which have high shrinkage and swelling property. This type of soil cannot withstand heavy load. So, to overcome such problem treatment of soil is needed to be done using plastic materials or volcanic ash, cement kiln dust(CKD) particles for stabilizing this soil. Soil stabilization is the process which improve the physical effects of soil shearing and bearing capacity which is use of adding the admixture like cement, fly ash, lime volcanic ash CKD. Engineers are develop new technique for soil stabilization. It is really big deal to use these type of waste to stabilization of soil. India is developing country build new building and break the old building. All this process many type of waste are generate and in Indian survey nearly 7.46 million tonnes of hazardous waste is generated in India annually So the engineers are think the all waste are used in soil stabilization This paper write for two reason, one is recycle the waste materials and other one is increase the soil stabilize. Some type of industrial waste are including the gravel and dirt concrete and masonry, oils, metals, industrial waste like gasses or solids and also count vegetables matters from restaurants. In other words the industrials waste is two type one is non-hazardous and 2nd is hazardous
