Abstract

Optimum dosage of admixture was found to be 20%. Increment in specific gravity was found to 2.35 to 2.6 at this dosage. Increment in Cu was found to be from 5.71 to 7.77 & Cc was found to be 0.53 to 1.18 at this dosage. Decrement in liquid limit was found to be from 65% to 58% at this dosage. Decrement in plastic limit was found to be from 35% to 32% and plasticity index was found to be from 30% to 26%. Increment in maximum dry density was found to be from 1.583g/c.c to 1.63g/c.c at this dosage. Increment in shear strength was found to be from 0.149kg/cm2 to 0.165kg/cm2 at this dosage. Increment in CBR value was found to be from 2.53% to 2.82%. The maximum dry density, shear strength and CBR value increases upto 20% dosage of admixture and beyond this there is a reduction in maximum dry density, shear strength and CBR value. Liquid limit, plastic limit and plasticity index values decreases upto 20% dosage of admixture and beyond this there is a reduction in liquid limit, plastic limit and plasticity limit.
