Experimental Study of Expansive soil mixed with Kota Stone Slurry Powder

Abstract

In India, waste material disposal is a problem because lack of land and disposal techniques. Rajasthan is a big supplier of kota stone due to this large amount of kota stone slurry powder is produced. Kota stone slurry powder is a good inert filler material and a good stabilizing material, which improves the pore structure and enhance the resistance of the concrete to various harmful actions and mortars with pozzolanic and non-pozzolanic material. Kota stone slurry powder enhances durability properties. In this study we discuss the effect of adding kota stone slurry powder as a stabilizing agent and filler material into expansive soil. In this investigation kota stone slurry powder is mixed with expensive soil in different proportions and the effect of changes in parameters of expansive soil are recorded. In the present study, we discuss the effect of adding the kota stone slurry powder as a stabilizing agent and filler material into expansive soil. In this investigation kota stone slurry powder is mixed with expansive soil in different proportions and the effect of changes in parameters of expansive soil are recorded in the form of tables and graphs.
