A Survey of Literature on Impact of Silica Fume (SF) and Saw Dust Ash (SDA) On Expansive Soil
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 8
Abstract
The quest to modify the engineering properties of weak or expansive soils seem to be unending as these expansive soils posse a huge challenge to construction of roads by Highway engineers due to their poor geotechnical properties. Many materials have been attempted with the aim of trying to determine how effective these materials will be in improving the strength characteristics of expansive soils, while many have been found very useful, a few have been found wanting. This review paper is aimed at trying to determine the general effect of Saw Dust Ash (SDA) Silica Fume (SF) and thus, their rate of acceptance or rejection judging from Laboratory experiments conducted by different researchers. It was discovered from the review that 100% of the research in this review recommend Silica fume as stabilizing agent while Saw dust Ash had 87.5% acceptance as stabilizing agent.
