| Summary: |
Utilization of lime and rice husk ash for soil stabilization produced considerable strength gain and other
geotechnical properties of the stabilized soils. Its application could be also superior for construction
materials as compressed-stabilized earth (CSE) or unfired-brick. This paper presents the investigation
result of the application of lime and rice husk for unfired brick or compressed stabilized earth. The compressive
and three-point flexural strength tests including compressive strength after water submersion
were carried out in this present study. The investigation results show that compressive and flexural
strength of clay brick are improved by adding of lime and RHA. The best quantity of lime and RHA in this
study, is obtained by ratio 1:1 of lime and RHA. The addition of sand in stabilized clay resulted in more
improvement in the water retention ability. |
