Strength and Stiffness Studies of Corex Slag and Lime Stabilised Expansive Soil
Enormous quantities of waste by-products, like fly ash, red mud, granulated blast furnace slag (GBFS), silica fume and many more, are being produced every year all over the world from several industrial activities. These wastes are unloaded near the plants or in lagoons that conquering quite a lot of hectares of valuable land which may cause harm to environment. India is one of the primary producers of many industrial wastes, in which fly ash, and different slags are generating in massive amounts. Although the slags from the steel industry have acceptable quality to utilise for road works, their use on Indian roads construction is limited. The work is meant to determining the amount of corex slag by the weight of the mix that can be used in the subgrade layer/embankment of road construction. Strength properties of various soil-corex slag-lime mixes, namely compressive strength and stiffness in terms of flexure strength studied in the laboratory investigation for 7 and 28 days curing period. Also, relationships have been proposed to determine the flexural modulus of corex slag + lime stabilised expansive soil from its compressive strengths.
