| Abstract | ||||
| Cement Kiln ~ust (CKD) from Al-Yamamah Cement plant in Riyadh, wasadded to different soils (A-4, A-2-4, and A-1-b) to study its stabilizing effect on the properties of these soils. Itwas found, in general, @d for the CKD'contents used ( 4, 10, and 16%) that CKD lowers plasticity, increases pH value, increases optimum moisture content and lowers the maximum dry density of those soils. There was an increase in California bearing ratio (CBR) and unconfined compressive strength due to CKD addition. 'Increasing the amount of CKD mer. increases its effect on the above properties. | ||||
