STABILIZATION OF SOIL BY CEMENT

The process of stabilization of soil by cement was investigated using seven additives that were different in their reactivity to soil and cement. The experimental results of development of mechanical strength strength-fall after immersion in water, permeability test and microscopic observation show that cement reacts, first, with fine parts of soil and after curing for more than three weeks, the reaction products give secondary bond-strength to the soil cement by pozzolanic reaction. Therefore, in order to ameliorate the properties of soil cement, it is necessary to examine fine parts of soil by X-ray analysis and strength-fall by immersion in water.
