Improvement of Geotechnical Properties of Fine-Grained Soil by Using Lime and Guwahati Municipal Solid Waste Ash
Municipal solid waste (MSW) is a significant environmental problem that can have a negative ecological effect which may lead to future outbreaks of disease and epidemics. Utilization of incinerated municipal solid waste ash with lime for stabilization of soil is the main aspect of this study. Through this study, the geotechnical properties of fine-grained soil blended with different percentage of lime (1, 2 and 3%) and municipal solid waste ash (2, 4, 6, 8 and 10%) have been analyzed. The plasticity behavior of the soil has been studied by curing the samples for 0, 3, 7, 14 and 28 days. The strength behavior of the soil has been studied by curing the samples for 0, 3, 7 and 14 days. It is observed that the combined effect of lime, MSW ash and curing greatly influences the plasticity and strength behavior of the soil. The admixtures influenced the parameters of compaction by lowering the soil's maximum dry density and raising the optimum moisture content of the soil.
