    Muhammad Farooq
    This document discusses soil stabilization techniques. It defines soil stabilization as chemical or mechanical treatments that improve the engineering properties of soil by increasing stability. Key methods described include compaction, drying, adding lime, cement or asphalt. Proper procedures are outlined for lime stabilization, cement stabilization and grouting. Soil stabilization strengthens soil, controls dust and waterproofs soil. It can prevent slope failures, bridge failures and structural failures.

    DEFINITION:
     Chemical or mechanical treatment designed to
    increase the stability of a soil mass and improve its
    engineering properties.
     Modification of soil structure and the reduction of the
    moisture content of cohesive soils lead to a
    considerable improvement in bearing capacity.
    Modification of soil structure is the concept of soil
    stabilization.
     strength  improvement
     Dust control
     Soil waterproofing
     Slope Failures
     Bridge Failures
     Structural failures
     These above failures can be eliminated by stabilizing
    the soil.
     Shear strength
     Density
     Permeability.
     Surface Area.
     Atmospheric Conditions.
    Compaction
    Altering size distribution
     Drying
    Compaction has following effects on the soil:
     Increases density
     Increases strength
     Reduces permeability
     Performance of soil can be greatly improved by drying
    in sun or oven
    Combination of chemical & physical reactions.
    Materials known as stabilisers:
     Lime
     Cement
     Bitumin

    LIME STABILIZATION PROCEDURE.
    Pulverization and scarification
    Lime content
    Uniformity of mixing
    Compaction
    curing
    Low volume road construction -base coarse &
    wearing coarse.
    Sub grade improvement for low & high volume
    roads.
    CEMENT STABILIZATION PROCEDURE
    Pulverization
    Cement content
    Moisture content
    Uniformity of mixing
    Compaction
    Curing.
    • Cement stabilised soils usually stronger than lime
    stabilised soils.
    • Similar uses to lime stabilised soils.
    The factors that seem most important to control are
     Surface moisture content
     Viscosity of the asphalt
     Asphalt content
     Uniformity of mixing
     Aeration
     Compaction and curing.
    GROUTING METHODS:
     Grouting pressures shall be sufficiently in excess of
    confining overburden pressures to adequately
    compact the soil and fill all voids in the soil beneath
    the indicated areas. In no cases, however, shall the
    pressures be high enough to cause structural damage
    to the building.
     Where drilling indicates the presence of small voids,
    grouting shall begin at ledge rock elevation and
    continue upward in 12 inch maximum increments.
    USES:Soil stabilization by compaction grouting is to
    improve supporting characteristics of the silty clay
    sub soils, and prevent any further settlement from
    occurring within the area indicated on the Contract
    Drawings.
     Preserve Vegetation
     Mulching
     Hydraulic Mulch
     Hydroseeding
     Soil Binders
     Straw Mulch
     Rolled Erosion Control Products
     Wood Mulch
     Improves the strength and durability
     Stabilisation of sub-grade to increase CBR
     Reductions in bulk dig quantities
     This technique is a cost effective alternative to
    importing aggregates for both temporary and
    permanent works.
