Abstract
Black Cotton Soil is fertile and very good for agriculture, horticulture, sericulture and aquaculture. Though black cotton soils are very good for agricultural purpose, they are not so good for laying durable roads and construction of buildings. Index properties of natural soil showed that, the soil is poor for Engineering use .Groundnut Shell is an agricultural waste product obtained from milling of groundnut. Beneficial use of groundnut shell ash (GSA) on clay carried out elsewhere have been reported. Thus an attempt is made in this study to determine the characteristics of clayey soils of Anantapur district region mixing various percentages of GSA. With the addition of 2% GSA, significant improvement was in observed in Liquid Limit, Plastic Limit, Unconfined Compressive Strength, compaction, permeability and CBR.
Keywords- Stabilization, Black cotton soil
