Soil is a base of structure, which actually support the structure from beneath and distributes the load effectively. If the stability of the soil is not adequate then failure of structure occurs in form of settlement, cracks etc. Expansive soil is more responsible for such situations and this is due to presence of montmorillonite mineral in it, which has ability to undergo large swelling and shrinkage. To overcome this, properties of soil must be improved by artificial means known as ‘Soil Stabilization’. In this thesis we are stabilizing the soil by using Natural by products (RICE HUSK AND BAGASSE), with different proportions (0%,2%,4%,6%,8%...etc.,) to find where the maximum strength is attained. The different tests we are going to perform CBR, OMC, and Unconfined compressive strength.
