Effect of Egg Shell Powder on Index and Engineering Properties of Clayey Soil
Abstract
Abstract: Eggshell powder is used as an additive to combine with clayey soil so that properties like compaction and shear strength of clayey soil are investigated at 0%,3%,5%& 10% to the weight of soil. It is more efficient & economical both in terms of cost and energy to increase the bearing capacity of the soil rather than going for different deep foundations.
