What is Enhancing Laterite Soil Bearing Capacity about?
The study evaluates the geotechnical properties of natural laterite and the effects of cement-sand stabilization on soil bearing strength for structural construction. Results show that stabilization significantly improves properties, with optimum mixes of 12-16% cement and 24-32% sand leading to increased California Bearing Ratio (CBR) from ~7.8% to over 26%. Recommendations include using stabilized laterite for subgrade work and promoting local materials in construction practices.
