Summary: | The project aimed at finding the effects of cement on the basic properties of weak soil such as plasticity, moisture content, specific gravity, etc. The soil was mixed with cement in various proportions and the changes in the. soil properties were investigated. An experimental investigation was carried out in the laboratory on the soil: cement mixes with varying proportions. The soil: cement were measured by weight and the properties of the soil : cement were investigated in terms of plasticity, compaction and grading. From the investigation it was found that the increase in cement content increased the optimum water content of the soil. However the plasticity values decreased with the increase in cement content. Finally conclusions were drawn and further work was suggested in the future |
