quarry dust in clay stabilization

Dust In the present study, the quarry dust has been used as a stabilizer and added in different proportions to the lithomargic clay from Kavoor of Dakshina Kannada District. The quarry dust has been collected from a nearby quarry at Athrady of Udupi District. The various percentages of the quarry dust used for stabilization are 10, 20, 30, 40 ...

The crumb rubber and quarry dust can be used in stabilization of expansive soils in subgrade, which will reduce the environmental pollution and also increase the …

In this study Quarry Dust (QD) by proportion of 10, 20, and 30% was used, in order to study the enhancement of quarry dust as stabilization material for four types of clays characterized as potential expansive soil. The soils were collected from three different locations in Northern Cyprus.

Variation in the maximum dry density (MDD) and optimum moisture content (OMC) values has been obtained with increasing content and use of different gradations of quarry dust in the two clay types. Also the compaction characteristics are compared to those of clay-sand mixes by using sand samples having similar gradation to that of quarry dust.

Quarry dust utilization in the stabilization of soft clay soils and other classes of soils as construction materials has been in operation in recent times . This has been fuelled by a lot of factors that benefit the construction field and the infrastructures. Quarry dust is a solid waste sourced from quarrying operation,, .

Keywords— Soft Subgrade soil, Quarry dust, Stabilization, ... The addition of the Quarry dust to the soil reduces the clay content and thus increases in the percentage of coarser particles, reduces the Liquid limit by 26.86% and plasticity index by 28.48% of ...

ABSTRACT-Stone dust can be obtained from stone quarry. Stones are extensively used in all building constructional activities.. The stone dust is comparatively lighter in weight and stronger than common clay bricks. Since stone dust is being accumulated as waste material in large quantity near stone quarry.

of quarry dust and 0.50% of waste plastic fibre From the above graph shows the maximum Figure 4.9 Compaction curve for both clay and red soil with 30% quarry dust and 0.75% waste plastic fibre Figure 4.10 Compaction curve for both clay and red soil with 40% quarry dust and 1.00% waste plastic fibre

J. Jayapal [5] addition of quarry dust to clay will protect the swelling nature and increase the CBR value which leads to the reduction in thickness. It is possible to use 30% replacement of clay with quarry dust can be adapted to the village roads. Onyelowe Ken C. [6] quarry dust can be added to expansive soil in order to have good porous ...

economic approach. They concluded that the use of quarry dust in soil stabilization is to improve the engineering properties of soil. Sarvade and Nayak (2014) reported that after the stabilization of lithomargic clay with quarry dust the liquid limit and plasticity index are reduced.

The addition of quarry dust decreases the OMC and increases the MDD of the expansive soil. OMC goes on increasing and MDD goes on decreasing with in-crease in percentage of lime in expansive soil-quarry dust mixes and up to 5% of lime content the MDD of expansive soil-quarry dust mix is greater than that of soil. The addition of quarry ...

after the stabilization of lithomargic clay with quarry dust the liquid limit and plasticity index are reduced. They also concluded there is decrease in settlement and increase in load carrying capacity when quarry dust is mixed in lithomargic clay. III. METHODOLOGY The black cotton soil is blended with varying percentage of

The result of these tests shows the feasibility of using quarry dust in soil stabilization. The student t-test and the analysis of variance (ANOVA) test were used to check the adequacy of the models, and the models were found to be adequate at 95% confidence level. With the optimized equations, the properties' design, behaviour, and ...

Quarry dust can be used as a substitute for sand to improve the properties of lateritic soil Soosan et al. (2001b). Sridharan et al. (2005), conducted studies on the effect of quarry dust on the geotechnical properties of soil used in highway construction and concluded that the CBR value steadily increased with increase in percentage of quarry ...

The result (CBR) is the clay fraction in the mixture is decreased due to increase in quarry which earlier on was done by the clay fraction at lower percentage of quarry dust on the laterite quarry dust mixtures. The granite in the quarry dust adds strength and rigidity to the mixtures the quantity of the quarry dust increases.

Since quarry dust is a waste material from quarries and shows pozzolanic characteristics, it is always encouraged to use quarry dust for stabilization where easily and economically available. Quarry dust is extracted from the quarries is a non-plastic fine silt. Its composition varies according to blasting done in quarries.

Amount of clay content plays a major role in the variation of consistency limits. It is found that liquid limit decreases from 55% to 48% while the plastic limit reduces from 26% to 24% at the Quarry dust 20% Changes are marginal for MDD of quarry dust treated soil which is from 1.486 gm/cm3 to1.78 gm/cm3

2. QUARRY DUST :- 1Crushed quarry dust was obtained from the local crusher plants. Quarry dust is a waste product produced during the crushing process which is used to extract stone. It is rock particles. When huge rocks brake in too small parts for the construction in quarries. It is like sand but mostly grey in colour. 3.

stabilization, soil replacement, moisture control, prewetting etc. In recent years, soil stabilization by using various minerals like quarry dust, saw dust, copper dust and fly ash were most commonly used. These solid wastes are day by day increasing in India, which is not environmental friendly hence they have to be recycled.

TerraDura soil stabilization is a simple and cost saving solution for dust compared to using water applications. damage to countryside from quarry blasting. Each type of water repellent or blocking compound has disadvantages and advantages. wastes like stone quarry dust, lead and lead in …
