摘要：

Some interesting studies have been carried out in the field of laterite technology in the recent past to determine the usefulness of lateritic soils in the building and allied industries. This paper compares and reports the effects of grain sizes and optimum moisture content on the cement-stabilized and unstabilized lateritic soils. Sieve analysis of the soil sample used is carried out. This is with the view to obtaining five well defined different grain size ranges to be used. A comparison of the strength characteristic for the cement-stabilized and unstabilized lateritic soils was carried out. It has been found that the compressive strength obtained for cement-stabilized lateritic soils can be as high as 12 times those obtained for unstabilized lateritic soils depending on the mix proportion. It has also been found that there exists a linear relationship between the optimum water/content ratio and the lateritic/cement ratio.
