Abstract

The objective of this paper is to upgrade expansive soil as a construction material using fly ash, which is
waste materials. Soil is a peculiar material. Some waste materials such Fly Ash, rice husk ash, pond ash may use to make
the soil to be stable. Addition of such materials will increase the physical as well as chemical properties of the soil. Some
expecting properties to be improved are CBR value, shear strength, liquidity index, plasticity index, unconfined
compressive strength and bearing capacity etc. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of Fly Ash and Rice
husk ash to improve the performance of black cotton soil.
