A study on the performance of lime slurry stabilized kaolin clay / Darwis Lallo

Clay soil can be stabilized by the addition of small percentages, by weight, of lime, thereby enhancing many of the engineering properties of the soil and producing an improved construction material. As lime stabilization is most often used in relation to road construction, the tests were chosen wit...
