Soil Stabilization with Silica Fume & Lime by edwinmauricio is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study investigates the stabilization of problematic kaolin soils using silica fume and lime to enhance their shear strength, which is crucial for structural applications. The optimal combination found was 4% silica fume and 7% lime, resulting in an 88.10% strength improvement, while also reducing environmental impact and costs. The research highlights the effectiveness of using pozzolanic materials like silica fume as a sustainable alternative to traditional cement in soil stabilization.
