Abstract

In this study the effectiveness of marble dust to improve the mechanical properties of clayey soil has been studied. Marble has high lime content, which acts as the main factor for soil stabilization. 25–30% marble dust (MD) is generated during marble quarries and stones are cut as a block. In this study marble dust was added in the range of 0–30% to the virgin soil by weight. Various tests like Atterberg’s limits, compaction test, and strength tests were performed on untreated soil as well as on treated soil. The results obtained in case of treated soil were compared with the results obtained from the untreated soil. Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) tests were performed at different curing intervals. It was found that the soil strength increased with the increase in marble powder content and curing periods.
