In this research the influence of the fineness of natural
pozzolana and lime on the properties of compaction ,
unconfined compressive strength and linear shrinkage of
clayey soil was experimented the finessess of natural pozzolana
used in this re
earch were 3500,4000,4500 cm²/g , finessess of
lime 4000 , 5000 , 6000 cm²/g.
Through the soil stabilization we follow improvement of the physical
properties of the soil by adding chemical binding materials. This paper deals
with the treatment of soil samples collected from four locations in the south of
Syria, that would b
e used in irrigation canals basement . The binding
material used for the soil treatment is quicklime (CaO). After different
treatments the soil samples have a different behaviour after addition of Lime in
the same percent which reflects their ability to be stabilized.
