Abstract - In today climatic changes, lack of stable ground
for development of infrastructuresisverycommon.Infactof
this, construction of buildings on unsuitable ground is
unavoidable and making a suitable ground before
constructions is real difficult issue for Geotechnical
Engineers. To overcome the difficulties experienced with
problematic soil in geotechnical applicationsononesideand
safe disposal of solid wastes on the other side, an attempt is
made in this investigation to explore the possibilities of
utilizing wastes to improve the engineering behavior of
problematic soil. In this, in this present investigation the
type of waste namely marble dust and rice husk for
stabilization is selected to study the effects of same on the
properties of problematic soil.
Key Words: Marble dust, Rice husk, Alluvial soil, clayey soil
1. INTRODUCTION
Soil is a major component of the earth’s surface which
sustains life. Itis made up by the disintegration of rocks due
to various environmental processes like changing weather,
volcanic action, erosion of rocks by water etc. Some of the
various types of soil that are found inourcountryarealluvial
soil, laterite soil, black cotton soil or expansive soil etc. The
type and availability of these soils are based upon the
climatic andgeographical location of a particulararea.Apart
from helping the plants growth, soil alsohelpsthehumansto
carry out all the basic activities on it like travelling,
construction, agriculture etc. A developingcountrylikeIndia
demands rapid growth in its infrastructure i.e. a proper
network of roads and buildings for development. All the
constructions relatedtocivil engineering,likea simplehouse
or a multi-storey building, a road or a highway, everything is
built on the soil. It is very important to check all the
engineering properties of the soil like the cohesion,
capillarity, permeability etc before starting any
constructional work on it because all the soils are not
suitable for construction always.
Before starting theconstruction of any project, siteselection
is the foremost objective of engineering department. One of
the main purposes of site selection or investigation is to
determine stable and good quality soil where the
construction is to be done. It also helps in collecting all the
relevant information about soil and its properties.
Afterwards, soil with the best quality is selected for
construction so that it would result in better structure.
Foundation isthe main part of anyconstructionanditlargely
depends upon thetype of soil. Foundation soil isthe onethat
carries all the loads of structure and good foundation gives
more stability to the structure.
2. Materials
The following materials are used for the study:
I. Soil
II. Marble Dust
III. Rice Husk
I. Soil
The biologically active,porousmediumthathasdevelopedin
the uppermost layer of Earth’s crust. Soil is one of the
principal substrata of life on Earth, serving as a reservoir
of water and nutrients, as a medium for the filtration and
breakdown of injurious wastes, and as a participant in the
cycling of carbon and other elements through the
global ecosystem. It has evolved through weathering
processes driven by biological, climatic, geologic, and
topographic influences. In this study the type ofsoilsused as
material i.e. alluvial soil and clayey soil.
Soil is classified into five major groups:
a. Alluvial Soil
Alluvial soils are founds mostly in theregionsof Northern
India as well as in PeninsularIndia. Some of the states where
alluvial soil deposits are found are Punjab, Haryana, and
Gujarat etc. These soils are highly fertile soil as they are
formed by the silt deposition of the Indo-Gangetic-
Brahmaputra rivers. These soils are loose and porous in
nature as they are found near the river deposits which are
continuously eroded due to flow of water.
b. Black Cotton Soil
Black cotton soil is found in the states of Gujarat,
Karnataka and Maharashtra etc. They cover the portion of
western India as well some parts of south India as well. The
black cotton soil is not much suitable for construction as it
hasthe property of swelling and shrinking withthechangein
the moisture content in it.

c. Laterite Soil
These types of soils are rich in iron and aluminium and
are mostly found in the areas of Kerala, Tamil Nadu and
Orissa. These arefoundinhotandtropicalclimaticconditions
due to which these are very soft in nature and can be cut
easily. These types of soil are rich in minerals like iron and
aluminium. Due to the high iron content in them they are red
in colour.
d. Desert Soil
Desert soil is found mainly in the desert areas of
Rajasthan and Gujarat. These soils have low density and are
very pervious in nature. These soils are also called as arid
soils and occupy about 33% of the world’s total land area.
e. Marine Soil
These types of soils are found in the coastal areas of
Gujarat, TamilNadu, andKeralaetc.Thesesoilshaveverylow
shear strength and are considered as highly compressible.
These soils contain huge amount of organic matter in them,
thus supporting the vastplantandanimallifenearthecoastal
area.
II. Marble Dust
Marble Dust is a waste product of the marble stone. This
dust is produced in the process of cutting of marble stone.
Marble stone isa type of metamorphic rock that is produced
as a result of transformation occurred in the lime stone. In
India, marble processing industrygeneratesaround7million
tons of wastes mainly in the form of powder during sawing
and polishing processes. Out the total waste generated, the
state of Rajasthan alone contributes around 6 million tons of
marble dust annually i.e. about 95% of the total marble dust
production. This poses a huge threat to the environment and
the people because most of this marble dust is dumped into
the open area which causes a major environmental concern.
Although there are proper areas dedicated tothe dumpingof
this waste, but marble dust being a very fine powder is
capable of flowing away withthe wind. Thus the marbledust
spreads along the outer areas alsoand gradually settleon the
plantsand animalsofthesurroundingareas.Thespreadingof
marble dust in the surrounding areas certainly creates
necrotic ecological conditions for flora and fauna thereby
changing the landscapes and habitats gradually. Thus it
becomes very important toutilize this huge amount of waste
in a proper manner. To combat the effect of this waste
material to the surrounding area, it is used in various
processes such as in the production of concrete as well as in
the process of soil stabilization. Utilizing marble dust in the
process of stabilizing the soil is increasing day by day due to
the low cost of this material as well as for its ease of
availability.
III. Rice Husk
Rice husk are the hard protective coverings of rice grains
which are separated from the grains during milling process.
Rice husk isan abundantlyavailable wastematerialinallrice
producing countries, and it contains about 30%–50% of
organic carbon. In the course of a typical milling process, the
husks are removed from the rawgraintorevealwholebrown
rice which upon further milling to remove the bran layer will
yield white rice. Current rice production in the world is
estimated to be 700 million tons. Rice husk constitutesabout
20% of the weight of rice and its composition is as follows:
cellulose (50%), lignin (25%–30%), silica (15%–20%), and
moisture (10%–15%). Bulk density of rice husk is low and
lies in the range 90–150 kg/m3. Sources of rice husk ash will
be in the rice growing regions of the world, as for example
China, India, and the far-East countries. Rice husk is the
product of incineration of rice husk. Most of the evaporable
components of rice husk are slowly lost during burning and
the primary residues are the silicates. The characteristics of
the ash are dependent on, composition of the rice husk,
burning temperature and burning time. Every 100 kg of
husks burnt in a boiler for example will yield about 25 kg of
rice husk. In certain areas, rice husk is used as a fuel for
parboiling paddy in rice mills, whereas in some places it is
field-burnt as a local fuel. However, the combustion of rice
husk in such cases is far from complete and the partial
burning also contributes to air pollution.
3. Soil Stabilization
Soil stabilization is a general term for any physical,
chemical, biological, or combined method of changing a
natural soil to meet an engineering purpose. Usually
compaction is done to stabilize the soil. Apart from
compaction, draining out of the excess water also helps in
increasing the stabilityof thesoil.Addingvariousmaterialsin
the soil also helps in stabilizing it. Lime and cement have
been the main sources of soil stabilization since many years.
But gradually, utilization of cement for stabilization is
decreased because of its increasing cost and the pollution
caused in the environment due to CO2 emitted during its
production. Utilization of lime is also not much suitable
because lot of CO2 isemittedduring itsproductiontoo.These
facts necessitated the need for utilizing the waste products
from various industries so that they can be used as an
alternative to the conventional resources. Some of the waste
products used for the stabilization of soil are fly ash, marble
dust, foundry sand, rice husk ash etc. The fly ash generation
in 2011 in India was about 112 million tons per year which
increased to about 170 million tons in 2012 and about 225
million tons by 2017. While fly ash is a waste product
generated from thecoal based thermal power plants, marble
dust and foundry sand are the waste products from the
marble stone and the metal casting industries respectively.
Various studies have proved that utilization of these waste
materials as a soil stabilizing agent have not only improved
the soil properties but also helped in reducing the cost of the
project gradually. There are three main methods of

stabilization i.e. mechanical stabilization, chemical
stabilization and stabilization with the helpofgeosynthetics.
These three methods are as followings:
I. Mechanical Stabilization
Mechanical solutions involve physically changing in the
property of the soil somehow, inorder toaffect its gradation,
solidity, and other characteristics. Dynamic compaction and
vibro compaction arethetwotechniquesusedformechanical
stabilization. In vibro compaction the soil is compacted with
the helpofvibrationswhiledynamiccompactionusesaheavy
weight for the same. This is one of the oldest methods of
stabilizing the soil.
II. Chemical Stabilization
Chemical solutions are the techniques that relyonadding
an additional material to the soil that will physically interact
with it and change its properties. Lime and cement are the
most common materials that are being used for stabilizing
the soil. But with the advent of new materials and excess of
industrial wasteavailable,limeandcementarenowusedless.
Some of the industrial wastes that are used are fly ash, kiln
dust, marble dust, foundry sand etc.
III. Geosynthetic Stabilization
Geo-grids are used in geo synthetic stabilization, to
reinforce thesoil. Geo-grid with reduced aggregatethickness
option is designed for urban area and this provides a stable
working platform corresponding to 97 percent of CBR. Soil
modification and soil stabilization are the two processes to
provide strength to the weak soil. Soil Modification changes
the characteristics of soil by adding soil amendments to
strengthen physical and chemical conditions to improve the
bearing capacity of the soil. Soil Stabilization istheprocessof
blending and mixing materials with a soil to improve certain
properties of the soil. The process may include the blending
of soils to commercially available admixtures that may alter
the gradation, texture or plasticity, or act as a binder for
cementation of the soil. The main purpose of the soil
stabilization process isto increasethebearingcapacity ofthe
soil, thus making it fit for construction. A lot of methods are
employed for stabilizing the soil.
4. Highway Subgrade
In transport engineering, highways subgrade is the native
material underneath a
constructed road, pavement or railway track. It is also
called formation level. The term can also refer to imported
material that has been used to build an embankment.
Subgrades are commonlycompacted beforetheconstruction
of a road, pavement or railway track, and are sometimes
stabilized by the addition of asphalt, lime, portland
cement or other modifiers. Thesubgradeisthefoundationof
the pavement structure, on which the subbase is laid down.
The load-bearing strength of subgrade is measured
by California Bearing Ratio test, falling weight deflecto
meter back calculations and other methods. A subgrade’s
performance generally depends on two interrelated
characteristics:
I. Load Bearing Capacity: The subgrade must be able to
support loads transmittedfromthepavementstructure. This
load bearing capacity is often affected by degree of
compaction, moisture content, and soiltype.Asubgradethat
can support a high amount of loading without excessive
deformation is considered good.
II. Volume Changes: Most soils undergo some amount of
volume change when exposed to excessive moisture or
freezing conditions. Some clay soils shrink and swell
depending upon their moisture content, while soils with
excessive fines may be susceptible to frost heave in freezing
areas. Ash, especially on the Big Island, can present volume
change problems.
Soil Stabilization is the alteration of soils to enhance their
physical properties. Stabilization can increase the shear
strength of a soil and/or control the shrink-swell properties
of a soil, thus improving the load bearing capacity of a sub-
grade to support pavements and foundations. Soil
Stabilization can be utilized on roadways, parkingareas,site
development projects, airports and many other situations
where sub-soils are not suitable for construction.
Stabilization can be used to treat a wide range of sub-grade
materials, varying from expansive clays to granular
materials. This process is accomplished using a wide variety
of additives, including rice husk, lime, fly-ash, and Portland
cement, marble dust and foundry sand. Other material
byproducts used in Stabilization include lime-kiln dust and
cement-kiln dust.
There are advantages and disadvantages of many of these
soil stabilizing agents:
I. Many of the "green" products have essentially the same
formula as soap powders, merely lubricating and realigning
the soil with no effective binding property. Many of the new
approaches rely on large amounts of clay with its inherent
binding properties. Bitumen, tar emulsions,asphalt,cement,
lime can be used as a binding agents for producing a road
base. When using such products issues such as safety,health
and the environment must be considered.
II. The National SocietyofProfessional Engineers(NSPE)has
explored some of the newer types of soil stabilization
technology, specifically looking for "effective and green"
alternatives. One of the examples utilizes new soil
stabilization technology, a process based on cross-
linking styrene acrylic polymer. Another example uses long
crystals to create a closed cell formationthatisimpermeable
to water and is frost, acid, and salt resistant.
III. Utilizing new soil stabilization technology, a process of
cross-linking within the polymeric formulation can replace

traditional road/house construction methods in
an environmentally friendly and effective way.
IV. There is another soil stabilizationmethodcalledtheDeep
Mixing method that is non-destructive and effective at
improving load bearing capacity of weak or loose soil strata.
This method uses a small, penny-sized injection probe and
minimizes debris. This method is ideal for re-compaction
and consolidation of weak soil strata, increasing and
improving load bearing capacity under structures and the
remediation of shallow and deep sinkhole problems. This is
particular efficient when there is a need to support deficient
public and private infrastructure.
5. LITERATURE REVIEW
Regarding the work under process the various
researchers done for the stabilization of soil which are as
under:
Arman, et al., (1972) studied the feasibilityofimproving
the characteristics of organicsoilbyaddinglimeinLouisiana.
Over 1100 samples of both inorganic and organic soil were
evaluated. It was conducted that by adding lime the strength
as well as plasticity of soil was considerably improved.
Malhotra, and John., (1986) had added brick aggregatesto
fly ash –lime stabilized expansive soil. They concluded that
after a curing period of 28 days the stabilized soil achieved
the strength and durability to be used as base course in
pavement with cost less than conventional base course
materials.
Bhasin, et al., (1988) made a laboratory study on the
stabilization of black cotton soil as a pavement material
using RHA, along with other industrial wastes like fly ash,
bagasse ash, lime sludge,black sulphiteliquorindependently
with and without lime. The RHA causes greater
improvement than that caused by other wastes due to
presence of higher percentage of reactive silica in it. In
combination with lime, RHA improved the properties of
black cotton soil significantly.
Katti, and Sankar., (1989) had studied the CBRstrength
characteristic of expansive soil by stabilizing it withlimeand
brickaggregates. There was significant increaseinCBRvalue
in brick-lime stabilization compared to lime stabilization.
Anand, et al., (2000) investigated the use of randomand
discrete oriented polypropylene fiber reinforcement on
expansive soil. The results showed that fibers with different
percentages improved the UCS of the soil and reduces both
volumetric shrinkage strain and swell pressure of the
expansive soil.
Pandian, et al. (2001) had added fly ash (class- F) up to
100% to black cotton soil at an increment of 10% and found
that California bearing ratio (CBR) valuesofblack cottonsoil
increased up to 20% addition of fly ash beyond it, CBR
decreased. It again increased and attainedanoptimumvalue
when the percentage of fly ash was 70%.
J. Prabakar, et al., (2002) used sisal fiber for soil
stabilization. Siser fiber with different percentage (0.25%,
0.50%, 0.75% and1.00%)andhavedifferentlengths(10mm,
15mm, 20mm and 25mm) are used. They found reduction in
dry density with the increases in sisal fibercontentaswell as
they found that shear stress increases nominally with the
increases in fiber length up to 20mm and beyond 20mm
shear stress is found to present a decrease in tend. Also
shear stress increases with the increase in percentage of
sisal fiber up to 0.75%.
Parsons, et al., (2004) based on this investigation uses of
cement kiln dust in soil stabilization. Durability test were
followed by strength test and atterberg limits. Relative
values of soil stiffness were also tracked over a 28 days
curing period. The test results show a significant
improvement in performance with addition of cement kiln
dust.
Amu, et al., (2005) had used (Class- F) fly ash and cement
for stabilization of expansive soil. It was found that
stabilizing effect of 9% cement and 3% fly ash was better
than the stabilizing effect 12% cement.
Havanagi, et al., (2006) used mixed Copper slag (a waste
generated during the manufacture of copper) with fly ash
and expansive soils in different proportions and their
suitability in embankment, sub base and base were
investigated. The selected mixes were also stabilized at 3%,
6% and 9% of cement to make it suitable for base course.
Degirmenci, et al., (2007) had investigated the effect of
phosphogypsum on liquid limit, plastic limit, IP, OMC, MDD
and UCS of expansive soil. By stabilization with
phosphogypsum, the IP reduced, MDD increased, OMC
decreased, and UCS increased.
Hemlatha, et al., (2008) reviewed the effectiveness of
various construction and demolition wastes for the
sustainable development goal, studied and presented the
various categories of such wastes and reported the use of
fines from these wastes to be very effective, specially its
significance in improving the CBR of the subgrade soil.
Osinubi, et al. (2009) had studied the effects of bagasse
ash on compaction and strength characteristics of lime
stabilized black cotton soil. At 8 % lime and 4% bagasse ash
combination the highest CBR value was obtained.

from 2.87 to 4.75 for unsoaked sample and for soaked
sample value increases from 1.72 to 3.58 with the same
proportion of marble dust and rice husk respectively.
8. Conclusions
The effect of addition of marble dust and rice husk inalluvial
soils and clayey soil on the index properties, compaction
characteristics and CBR values is concluded as under:
 The unsoaked CBR value of the soil increases from3.27
to 9.32 whereas soaked CBR value from 2.42 to 4.84
only in the case of addition of marble dust and rice husk
to alluvial soils.
 The plasticity index of the alluvial soils decreases
steeply from 23.5% to 15.68% with the increase in
%age of marble dust and rice husk and in case of clayey
soils the plasticity index also decreases with the
increase in %age of marble dust and rice husk i.e.
reduced from 26.00% to 19.50%.
 Free Swell index also decreases in both soils with
increase in %age of marble dust and rice husk i.e. from
55.00% to 33.93% and from 56.00% to 16.83%.
 The maximum and minimum dry density of alluvial
soils is 19.25kN/m3 and 15.39kN/m3 respectively and
for clayey soils it is 17.32kN/m3 and 15.39kN/m3
respectively. Maximum result obtained with maximum
proportion and minimum result obtained without
stabilization.
 As such alluvial soils are better performing type of soils
than clayey soils for using these additives for soil
stabilization.
 Marble dust and rice husk uses solve to certain extend
the waste disposal problem also.

Neeraj Kumar3 1M.Tech Scholar Civil Engineering Department, SRMIET Khora Bhura, Ambala 2Professor and Director, Civil Engineering Department, SRMIET Khora Bhura, Ambala 3Assistant Professor, Civil Engineering Department, SRMIET Khora Bhura, Ambala ----------------------------------------------------------------------------***----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Abstract - In today climatic changes, lack of stable ground for development of infrastructuresisverycommon.Infactof this, construction of buildings on unsuitable ground is unavoidable and making a suitable ground before constructions is real difficult issue for Geotechnical Engineers. To overcome the difficulties experienced with problematic soil in geotechnical applicationsononesideand safe disposal of solid wastes on the other side, an attempt is made in this investigation to explore the possibilities of utilizing wastes to improve the engineering behavior of problematic soil. In this, in this present investigation the type of waste namely marble dust and rice husk for stabilization is selected to study the effects of same on the properties of problematic soil. Key Words: Marble dust, Rice husk, Alluvial soil, clayey soil 1. INTRODUCTION Soil is a major component of the earth’s surface which sustains life. Itis made up by the disintegration of rocks due to various environmental processes like changing weather, volcanic action, erosion of rocks by water etc. Some of the various types of soil that are found inourcountryarealluvial soil, laterite soil, black cotton soil or expansive soil etc. The type and availability of these soils are based upon the climatic andgeographical location of a particulararea.Apart from helping the plants growth, soil alsohelpsthehumansto carry out all the basic activities on it like travelling, construction, agriculture etc. A developingcountrylikeIndia demands rapid growth in its infrastructure i.e. a proper network of roads and buildings for development. All the constructions relatedtocivil engineering,likea simplehouse or a multi-storey building, a road or a highway, everything is built on the soil. It is very important to check all the engineering properties of the soil like the cohesion, capillarity, permeability etc before starting any constructional work on it because all the soils are not suitable for construction always. Before starting theconstruction of any project, siteselection is the foremost objective of engineering department. One of the main purposes of site selection or investigation is to determine stable and good quality soil where the construction is to be done. It also helps in collecting all the relevant information about soil and its properties. Afterwards, soil with the best quality is selected for construction so that it would result in better structure. Foundation isthe main part of anyconstructionanditlargely depends upon thetype of soil. Foundation soil isthe onethat carries all the loads of structure and good foundation gives more stability to the structure. 2. Materials The following materials are used for the study: I. Soil II. Marble Dust III. Rice Husk I. Soil The biologically active,porousmediumthathasdevelopedin the uppermost layer of Earth’s crust. Soil is one of the principal substrata of life on Earth, serving as a reservoir of water and nutrients, as a medium for the filtration and breakdown of injurious wastes, and as a participant in the cycling of carbon and other elements through the global ecosystem. It has evolved through weathering processes driven by biological, climatic, geologic, and topographic influences. In this study the type ofsoilsused as material i.e. alluvial soil and clayey soil. Soil is classified into five major groups: a. Alluvial Soil Alluvial soils are founds mostly in theregionsof Northern India as well as in PeninsularIndia. Some of the states where alluvial soil deposits are found are Punjab, Haryana, and Gujarat etc. These soils are highly fertile soil as they are formed by the silt deposition of the Indo-Gangetic- Brahmaputra rivers. These soils are loose and porous in nature as they are found near the river deposits which are continuously eroded due to flow of water. b. Black Cotton Soil Black cotton soil is found in the states of Gujarat, Karnataka and Maharashtra etc. They cover the portion of western India as well some parts of south India as well. The black cotton soil is not much suitable for construction as it hasthe property of swelling and shrinking withthechangein the moisture content in it.

Laterite Soil These types of soils are rich in iron and aluminium and are mostly found in the areas of Kerala, Tamil Nadu and Orissa. These arefoundinhotandtropicalclimaticconditions due to which these are very soft in nature and can be cut easily. These types of soil are rich in minerals like iron and aluminium. Due to the high iron content in them they are red in colour. d. Desert Soil Desert soil is found mainly in the desert areas of Rajasthan and Gujarat. These soils have low density and are very pervious in nature. These soils are also called as arid soils and occupy about 33% of the world’s total land area. e. Marine Soil These types of soils are found in the coastal areas of Gujarat, TamilNadu, andKeralaetc.Thesesoilshaveverylow shear strength and are considered as highly compressible. These soils contain huge amount of organic matter in them, thus supporting the vastplantandanimallifenearthecoastal area. II. Marble Dust Marble Dust is a waste product of the marble stone. This dust is produced in the process of cutting of marble stone. Marble stone isa type of metamorphic rock that is produced as a result of transformation occurred in the lime stone. In India, marble processing industrygeneratesaround7million tons of wastes mainly in the form of powder during sawing and polishing processes. Out the total waste generated, the state of Rajasthan alone contributes around 6 million tons of marble dust annually i.e. about 95% of the total marble dust production. This poses a huge threat to the environment and the people because most of this marble dust is dumped into the open area which causes a major environmental concern. Although there are proper areas dedicated tothe dumpingof this waste, but marble dust being a very fine powder is capable of flowing away withthe wind. Thus the marbledust spreads along the outer areas alsoand gradually settleon the plantsand animalsofthesurroundingareas.Thespreadingof marble dust in the surrounding areas certainly creates necrotic ecological conditions for flora and fauna thereby changing the landscapes and habitats gradually. Thus it becomes very important toutilize this huge amount of waste in a proper manner. To combat the effect of this waste material to the surrounding area, it is used in various processes such as in the production of concrete as well as in the process of soil stabilization. Utilizing marble dust in the process of stabilizing the soil is increasing day by day due to the low cost of this material as well as for its ease of availability. III. Rice Husk Rice husk are the hard protective coverings of rice grains which are separated from the grains during milling process. Rice husk isan abundantlyavailable wastematerialinallrice producing countries, and it contains about 30%–50% of organic carbon. In the course of a typical milling process, the husks are removed from the rawgraintorevealwholebrown rice which upon further milling to remove the bran layer will yield white rice. Current rice production in the world is estimated to be 700 million tons. Rice husk constitutesabout 20% of the weight of rice and its composition is as follows: cellulose (50%), lignin (25%–30%), silica (15%–20%), and moisture (10%–15%). Bulk density of rice husk is low and lies in the range 90–150 kg/m3. Sources of rice husk ash will be in the rice growing regions of the world, as for example China, India, and the far-East countries. Rice husk is the product of incineration of rice husk. Most of the evaporable components of rice husk are slowly lost during burning and the primary residues are the silicates. The characteristics of the ash are dependent on, composition of the rice husk, burning temperature and burning time. Every 100 kg of husks burnt in a boiler for example will yield about 25 kg of rice husk. In certain areas, rice husk is used as a fuel for parboiling paddy in rice mills, whereas in some places it is field-burnt as a local fuel. However, the combustion of rice husk in such cases is far from complete and the partial burning also contributes to air pollution. 3. Soil Stabilization Soil stabilization is a general term for any physical, chemical, biological, or combined method of changing a natural soil to meet an engineering purpose. Usually compaction is done to stabilize the soil. Apart from compaction, draining out of the excess water also helps in increasing the stabilityof thesoil.Addingvariousmaterialsin the soil also helps in stabilizing it. Lime and cement have been the main sources of soil stabilization since many years. But gradually, utilization of cement for stabilization is decreased because of its increasing cost and the pollution caused in the environment due to CO2 emitted during its production. Utilization of lime is also not much suitable because lot of CO2 isemittedduring itsproductiontoo.These facts necessitated the need for utilizing the waste products from various industries so that they can be used as an alternative to the conventional resources. Some of the waste products used for the stabilization of soil are fly ash, marble dust, foundry sand, rice husk ash etc. The fly ash generation in 2011 in India was about 112 million tons per year which increased to about 170 million tons in 2012 and about 225 million tons by 2017. While fly ash is a waste product generated from thecoal based thermal power plants, marble dust and foundry sand are the waste products from the marble stone and the metal casting industries respectively. Various studies have proved that utilization of these waste materials as a soil stabilizing agent have not only improved the soil properties but also helped in reducing the cost of the project gradually. There are three main methods of

These three methods are as followings: I. Mechanical Stabilization Mechanical solutions involve physically changing in the property of the soil somehow, inorder toaffect its gradation, solidity, and other characteristics. Dynamic compaction and vibro compaction arethetwotechniquesusedformechanical stabilization. In vibro compaction the soil is compacted with the helpofvibrationswhiledynamiccompactionusesaheavy weight for the same. This is one of the oldest methods of stabilizing the soil. II. Chemical Stabilization Chemical solutions are the techniques that relyonadding an additional material to the soil that will physically interact with it and change its properties. Lime and cement are the most common materials that are being used for stabilizing the soil. But with the advent of new materials and excess of industrial wasteavailable,limeandcementarenowusedless. Some of the industrial wastes that are used are fly ash, kiln dust, marble dust, foundry sand etc. III. Geosynthetic Stabilization Geo-grids are used in geo synthetic stabilization, to reinforce thesoil. Geo-grid with reduced aggregatethickness option is designed for urban area and this provides a stable working platform corresponding to 97 percent of CBR. Soil modification and soil stabilization are the two processes to provide strength to the weak soil. Soil Modification changes the characteristics of soil by adding soil amendments to strengthen physical and chemical conditions to improve the bearing capacity of the soil. Soil Stabilization istheprocessof blending and mixing materials with a soil to improve certain properties of the soil. The process may include the blending of soils to commercially available admixtures that may alter the gradation, texture or plasticity, or act as a binder for cementation of the soil. The main purpose of the soil stabilization process isto increasethebearingcapacity ofthe soil, thus making it fit for construction. A lot of methods are employed for stabilizing the soil. 4. Highway Subgrade In transport engineering, highways subgrade is the native material underneath a constructed road, pavement or railway track. It is also called formation level. The term can also refer to imported material that has been used to build an embankment. Subgrades are commonlycompacted beforetheconstruction of a road, pavement or railway track, and are sometimes stabilized by the addition of asphalt, lime, portland cement or other modifiers. Thesubgradeisthefoundationof the pavement structure, on which the subbase is laid down. The load-bearing strength of subgrade is measured by California Bearing Ratio test, falling weight deflecto meter back calculations and other methods. A subgrade’s performance generally depends on two interrelated characteristics: I. Load Bearing Capacity: The subgrade must be able to support loads transmittedfromthepavementstructure. This load bearing capacity is often affected by degree of compaction, moisture content, and soiltype.Asubgradethat can support a high amount of loading without excessive deformation is considered good. II. Volume Changes: Most soils undergo some amount of volume change when exposed to excessive moisture or freezing conditions. Some clay soils shrink and swell depending upon their moisture content, while soils with excessive fines may be susceptible to frost heave in freezing areas. Ash, especially on the Big Island, can present volume change problems. Soil Stabilization is the alteration of soils to enhance their physical properties. Stabilization can increase the shear strength of a soil and/or control the shrink-swell properties of a soil, thus improving the load bearing capacity of a sub- grade to support pavements and foundations. Soil Stabilization can be utilized on roadways, parkingareas,site development projects, airports and many other situations where sub-soils are not suitable for construction. Stabilization can be used to treat a wide range of sub-grade materials, varying from expansive clays to granular materials. This process is accomplished using a wide variety of additives, including rice husk, lime, fly-ash, and Portland cement, marble dust and foundry sand. Other material byproducts used in Stabilization include lime-kiln dust and cement-kiln dust. There are advantages and disadvantages of many of these soil stabilizing agents: I. Many of the "green" products have essentially the same formula as soap powders, merely lubricating and realigning the soil with no effective binding property. Many of the new approaches rely on large amounts of clay with its inherent binding properties. Bitumen, tar emulsions,asphalt,cement, lime can be used as a binding agents for producing a road base. When using such products issues such as safety,health and the environment must be considered. II. The National SocietyofProfessional Engineers(NSPE)has explored some of the newer types of soil stabilization technology, specifically looking for "effective and green" alternatives. One of the examples utilizes new soil stabilization technology, a process based on cross- linking styrene acrylic polymer. Another example uses long crystals to create a closed cell formationthatisimpermeable to water and is frost, acid, and salt resistant. III. Utilizing new soil stabilization technology, a process of cross-linking within the polymeric formulation can replace

IV. There is another soil stabilizationmethodcalledtheDeep Mixing method that is non-destructive and effective at improving load bearing capacity of weak or loose soil strata. This method uses a small, penny-sized injection probe and minimizes debris. This method is ideal for re-compaction and consolidation of weak soil strata, increasing and improving load bearing capacity under structures and the remediation of shallow and deep sinkhole problems. This is particular efficient when there is a need to support deficient public and private infrastructure. 5. LITERATURE REVIEW Regarding the work under process the various researchers done for the stabilization of soil which are as under: Arman, et al., (1972) studied the feasibilityofimproving the characteristics of organicsoilbyaddinglimeinLouisiana. Over 1100 samples of both inorganic and organic soil were evaluated. It was conducted that by adding lime the strength as well as plasticity of soil was considerably improved. Malhotra, and John., (1986) had added brick aggregatesto fly ash –lime stabilized expansive soil. They concluded that after a curing period of 28 days the stabilized soil achieved the strength and durability to be used as base course in pavement with cost less than conventional base course materials. Bhasin, et al., (1988) made a laboratory study on the stabilization of black cotton soil as a pavement material using RHA, along with other industrial wastes like fly ash, bagasse ash, lime sludge,black sulphiteliquorindependently with and without lime. The RHA causes greater improvement than that caused by other wastes due to presence of higher percentage of reactive silica in it. In combination with lime, RHA improved the properties of black cotton soil significantly. Katti, and Sankar., (1989) had studied the CBRstrength characteristic of expansive soil by stabilizing it withlimeand brickaggregates. There was significant increaseinCBRvalue in brick-lime stabilization compared to lime stabilization. Anand, et al., (2000) investigated the use of randomand discrete oriented polypropylene fiber reinforcement on expansive soil. The results showed that fibers with different percentages improved the UCS of the soil and reduces both volumetric shrinkage strain and swell pressure of the expansive soil. Pandian, et al. (2001) had added fly ash (class- F) up to 100% to black cotton soil at an increment of 10% and found that California bearing ratio (CBR) valuesofblack cottonsoil increased up to 20% addition of fly ash beyond it, CBR decreased. It again increased and attainedanoptimumvalue when the percentage of fly ash was 70%. J. Prabakar, et al., (2002) used sisal fiber for soil stabilization. Siser fiber with different percentage (0.25%, 0.50%, 0.75% and1.00%)andhavedifferentlengths(10mm, 15mm, 20mm and 25mm) are used. They found reduction in dry density with the increases in sisal fibercontentaswell as they found that shear stress increases nominally with the increases in fiber length up to 20mm and beyond 20mm shear stress is found to present a decrease in tend. Also shear stress increases with the increase in percentage of sisal fiber up to 0.75%. Parsons, et al., (2004) based on this investigation uses of cement kiln dust in soil stabilization. Durability test were followed by strength test and atterberg limits. Relative values of soil stiffness were also tracked over a 28 days curing period. The test results show a significant improvement in performance with addition of cement kiln dust. Amu, et al., (2005) had used (Class- F) fly ash and cement for stabilization of expansive soil. It was found that stabilizing effect of 9% cement and 3% fly ash was better than the stabilizing effect 12% cement. Havanagi, et al., (2006) used mixed Copper slag (a waste generated during the manufacture of copper) with fly ash and expansive soils in different proportions and their suitability in embankment, sub base and base were investigated. The selected mixes were also stabilized at 3%, 6% and 9% of cement to make it suitable for base course. Degirmenci, et al., (2007) had investigated the effect of phosphogypsum on liquid limit, plastic limit, IP, OMC, MDD and UCS of expansive soil. By stabilization with phosphogypsum, the IP reduced, MDD increased, OMC decreased, and UCS increased. Hemlatha, et al., (2008) reviewed the effectiveness of various construction and demolition wastes for the sustainable development goal, studied and presented the various categories of such wastes and reported the use of fines from these wastes to be very effective, specially its significance in improving the CBR of the subgrade soil. Osinubi, et al. (2009) had studied the effects of bagasse ash on compaction and strength characteristics of lime stabilized black cotton soil. At 8 % lime and 4% bagasse ash combination the highest CBR value was obtained. 6.

Conclusions The effect of addition of marble dust and rice husk inalluvial soils and clayey soil on the index properties, compaction characteristics and CBR values is concluded as under:  The unsoaked CBR value of the soil increases from3.27 to 9.32 whereas soaked CBR value from 2.42 to 4.84 only in the case of addition of marble dust and rice husk to alluvial soils.  The plasticity index of the alluvial soils decreases steeply from 23.5% to 15.68% with the increase in %age of marble dust and rice husk and in case of clayey soils the plasticity index also decreases with the increase in %age of marble dust and rice husk i.e. reduced from 26.00% to 19.50%.  Free Swell index also decreases in both soils with increase in %age of marble dust and rice husk i.e. from 55.00% to 33.93% and from 56.00% to 16.83%.  The maximum and minimum dry density of alluvial soils is 19.25kN/m3 and 15.39kN/m3 respectively and for clayey soils it is 17.32kN/m3 and 15.39kN/m3 respectively. Maximum result obtained with maximum proportion and minimum result obtained without stabilization.  As such alluvial soils are better performing type of soils than clayey soils for using these additives for soil stabilization.  Marble dust and rice husk uses solve to certain extend the waste disposal problem also. 9.
