摘要
Clayey soils are stabilized with various percentages of volcanic ash (VA), finely ground natural lime (NL), Portland cement, and their combinations. The influence of stabilizers and their combinations is evaluated through standard Proctor compaction, unconfined compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, and California bearing ratio (CBR) tests. The durability of stabilized soil mixtures is judged based on drying shrinkage and the influence of water immersion on strength. Correlations between compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, and CBR are also established. Stabilized soil mixtures can be used in various constructions, including road pavements and low-cost housing.
