This document outlines a group project to upgrade expansive soil for construction use by adding rice husk ash and fly ash to stabilize the soil. The group members are listed and the goals of the project are to reduce costs by using waste products, improve subgrade properties, reduce optimum moisture content, and allow wet soil to dry more quickly. The project will involve collecting data and samples, performing various tests on the soils, analyzing the results, and preparing a final report comparing the treated soils to average soil properties.
