Abstract


Soil stabilization with controlled compaction and addition of admixture, considerably increases the bearing capacity of soil and stability of the soil. Soil stabilization with controlled compaction and addition of admixture, considerably increases the bearing capacity of soil and stability of the soil. In future E waste may be major problem and needs solution. An attempt was made to use the E waste in the stabilization of Clay soil with high plasticity. Optimum moisture content of E stabilized soil decreases with increase in percentage of E waste in soil. Unconfined compressive strength also increased with the increase in percentage of E waste in E waste stabilized soil.
