soil stabilization is the most common ground improvement technique adopted to improve problematic soil properties. The main objective of this dissertation work will be to evaluate the swelling pressure of bentonite clay and to reduce this swelling pressure by adding silt & fine sand in different gradation and non-expansive soil(kaolinite).this paper presents and analyze the result of series of laboratory test including (sieve analysis, hydrometer, specific gravity, standard proctor test, swell pressure, free swell test) performed on untreated bentonite which is collected from bhuj (Gujarat) and black cotton soil which is collected from an urban site situated in bharuch city(dahej)

black cotton soil, bentonite, kaolinite, swell pressure, shrinkage and swelling
