Abstract: This paper presents a research conducted to ascertain the feasibility of using different methods for stabilization of expansive soil. The primary focus of the research was concentrated on determination of the effect of different treatment methods on expansive soil, on its swelling pressure and plasticity characteristics and the optimum content of materials, such as marble dust for reduction in swelling potential. The effect of curing period on the swelling characteristics is also ascertained and explained in this paper.
