Geotechnical engineering can noticeably affect the sustainability of infrastructure development because of its beginning place in the construction practice. Utilization of waste materials for enhancing properties of the soil is a wise choice and is also one step towards accomplishing sustainable development. Application of by-products (viz., flay ash and rice husk ash) which could be defined as “sustainable materials”, find special place in the modern-day soil stabilization and modification exercise. The preset paper aims at enhancing properties of expansive soil with inclusion of industrial by-products namely Rice Husk ash and Fly Ash. Further the present paper focuses on improving geotechnical characteristics of fine sand upon reinforcing with ground shredded rubber tire. Fine sand has a low angle of internal friction and which in turn has low shear strength. Reuse of waste materials is one area of research which attempts to makes geotechnical engineering practice sustainable.

This study assesses the stabilization of marine clay soil using cement and lime to improve on the subgrade material. The tests conducted include: the natural moisture content, specific gravity, sieve analysis, Atterberg limit, compaction and California Bearing Ratio (CBR). The types of stabilization used were mechanical and chemical. The results obtained were classified using AASHTO classification system and based on the results the soil corresponds to group A-6 soils. The highest CBR values of 33.24% and 424.35% were obtained at 20% cement content for unsoaked and soaked and for lime the highest CBR values were 5.07 and 10.46 for 11% lime content for both unsoaked and unsoaked. Based on the results obtained, the addition of cement and lime to clay soil in the presence of water improved the CBR values for soft clay stabilization for highway construction with low traffic volume. It is therefore concluded that the addition of cement and lime to clay soil improved the bearing capacity and the maximum dry density of the clay soil. Further research should be carried out to examine the effects of industrial by-products on effective clay soil stabilization.
