A Comparative Study of using Fly Ash and Rice Husk Ash in Soil Stabilization

Soils are generally stabilized to increase their strength and durability or to prevent erosion and dust formation in soils. The main aim is the creation of a soil material or system that will hold under the design use conditions and for the designed life of the engineering project. In this study, Stabilization of soil using solid wastes like Rice husk Ash and Fly ash which reduces the cost of chemical stabilization a review is made on Rice husk ash and Fly ash. RHA has rich amount of silica and FA believed to be one of the best pozzolans which may be used as chemical stabilizers for soil stabilization. The rice husk ash and fly ash is mixed in various proportions with soil like 5 , 10 , 15 and 20 . Various tests were also conducted on these mixes in order to find optimum proportions.
