Experimental Investigations on Red Soil Stabilized with Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag for Pavement Applications
Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag (GGBS) is the residual product generated during the manufacturing process steel. The storage of untreated slag consumes more open land for storage. The present article discusses the material properties like grain size analysis, consistency limits, specific gravity, maximum dry density, optimum moisture content, unconfined compression strength test, and durability properties of stabilized red soil with ground granulated blast furnace slag (25%) and its probable application as road construction material. Results have shown an increase in UCS (average 75%) values of the stabilized red soil at 0, 7, and 28 days of curing compared with same day cured sample and problems associated with the earthen road construction material is the reduced strength and weathering due to exposure to harmful climatic conditions. Therefore, the prominence has been given to the durability of the stabilized red soil by considering the effect of wetting and drying (W&D) cycles on its weight loss which is within the limits as specified by codes.
