The performance of any type of pavements is more contributed on sub-grade soil strength. Many stabilizing techniques and materials have been used by researchers to increase the strength of sub-grade soil among different natural and artificial reinforcing material. Jute is one of the natural abundant resource materials and many studies have been carried out on jute geo-textile on embankment slope protection and embankment construction and drainage design.Jute and Fly Ash being easily available, the procurement of the material is simple. Therefore, in present study, jute fibers (different proportion and length) and fly ash (varying proportion) are used in order to stabilize the soil sample. On the basis of test results, it is recommended that 27% fly ash along with 0.8% treated jute fibers of length 15 mm to soil gives the optimum results.
