CEMENT STABILIZATION OF BLACK COTTON SOIL USING LOCUST BEAN WASTE ASH AS ADMIXTURE
📄 Project Abstract
The preliminary investigation of the black cotton soil collected from New Marte, Borno State, shows that it belongs to A-7-6 (13) in AASHTO and CH in the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS), respectively. Soil under these groups are usually very poor for engineering use which was why it was treated with an ordinary Portland cement - locust beans waste ash (LBWA) blend in stepped concentration of 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8% by dry weight of soil. Compaction was carried out using three energy levels namely: the British Standard Light, West African Standard and the British Standard Heavy. The liquid limit increased from 63% for the natural soil to 77% at 6% OPC/6% LBWA while the plastic limit decreased from 26.6% for the natural soil to 21.4% at 6% OPC/4% LBWA treatment. Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) values of 151, 324 and 637kN/m2 recorded for the natural soil were increased to 837, 1220 and 1420kN/m2 at 6% OPC/6% LBWA for specimens compaction using British Standard Light (BSL), West...
