Abstract
Expansive soils may cause the following problems in structures or construction projects: structural damage to lightweight structures such as sidewalks and driveways. lifting of buildings, damage to basements, and building settlement. cracks in walls and ceilings and the main problem associated with expansive soil is detoriate soil and causes various problem The main objective of this study is to investigate the use of lumber waste and lime and Rice husk waste with expansive soil materials in geotechnical applications and to evaluate the effects of shear strength of u soil by carrying out with laboratory testing such as atterberg limit and compaction factor test and direct shear test on soil samples with mix proportion includes 0%,6%,12%,18% of lumber dust and Rice husk ash . The results obtained are compared for the samples and inferences are drawn towards the usability and effectiveness of a replacement for soil stabilization and foundation, as a cost effective approach.
