What is Sawdust Effects on Expansive Soil Properties about?

1. The study evaluated how adding fine sawdust from pine wood affects the hydro-physical properties of expansive soil collected from Egypt. 2. Laboratory tests were conducted on soil samples with 0-20% sawdust additions on a dry weight basis. 3. The results showed that sawdust decreases clay content, plasticity index, linear shrinkage and cracking width, while increasing saturated hydraulic conductivity, indicating improved soil hydro-physical properties, especially with 1-2% sawdust additions.
