Stabilization of Clayey Soil by using Gypsum and Calcium Chloride
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 5
Abstract
For stabilizing clayey soil and to achieve higher strength in minimum time period, calcium chloride with gypsum (CaSO2.2H2O) is used. Experiment is conducted to evaluate the properties of clayey soil .The test is conducted with different percentages of gypsum 2%, 4% , 6% and 8% is used for stabilization. From the best result of different percentage of gypsum, the sample is further tested with 1% of CaCl2. Tests conducted for clayey soil mixed with gypsum and calcium chloride (CaCl2) are Liquid Limit, Plastic Limit, Optimum Moisture Content and Maximum Dry Density and California Bearing Ratio. A comparison between properties of clayey soil, clayey soil mixed with gypsum, clayey soil mixed with gypsum and calcium chloride (CaCl2)is performed. It is found that the properties of clayey soil mixed with gypsum and calcium chloride (CaCl2) are suitably improved.
