Influence of Lime on Alluvial Soil Strengthened with Pond Ash and Rice Husk Ash for Construction of Subgrade of Road
Due to rapid development in the industrial sectors, huge quantities of waste materials are being produced as by-product and such wastes are to be located over dumping zones near the plants. These wastes not only need depositional land, but also create accumulation hazard and pollute environment around the plants. On the other hand procurement of conventional materials in huge quantity required for construction of subgrade of road is becoming very difficult in many locations due to various problems. So need has arisen for proper disposal of the waste materials. Utilizing these materials in the area of road construction after improving their characteristics suitably can provide useful solution of this problem. So keeping this in view, an experimental study was undertaken to explore the possibility of utilization of the alternative materials like pond ash, rice husk ash (RHA) by mixing with local alluvial soil by adding small percentage of lime for the construction of road subgrade as cost effective mix.
