1. The document discusses a study on strengthening the subgrade of roads built on black cotton soil using quarry dust. 2. Black cotton soil has very low bearing capacity and high shrinkage/swelling properties making it a poor foundation material. Quarry dust, a waste product from quarrying, was tested as an admixture to improve the properties of black cotton soil. 3.
