Abstract

Black cotton soil most problematic soil for civil engineers for several challenges.
Therefore this type soil is considered as potential hazard naturally; this can be cause the damage
in structures due to extension if it is not treated properly. The purpose of the study is to increase
its capacity and to control the swelling properties. The properties can be modified mechanically
and chemically. The selection of this modification depends on the availability and applicability
for the soil.
For decrease the effect of cost and environmentally free method several industrial waste
materials are utilized for improving the soil characteristics. And also another concern is to reduce
the consumption of natural materials like aggregates, sand etc… It can be reduced by selecting
this methods, it helps to reduce the quantity or thickness of sub-base in road construction and
also reduces the area of footing in residential buildings.
In this point of view, the utilization of bauxite residue and GGBS in this study is chosen
which will help the environment. The soil Stabilised with different percentage of Bauxite residue
(red mud 15%, 25% & 35%) and with 5% GGBS are added found variation in the original
strength of the soil. Based on the results at optimum Bauxite residue (25%) found the maximum
increase in the CBR value as 4.7% when compared to other mixes. By observing these results, at
Mix2 (80% black cotton soil + 25% of bauxite residue+ 5%GGBS) 1.46N/mm2 UCS is higher
than other mixes. Liquid limits is decreases with increase in the Bauxite residue quantity.
