Abstract
Soil stabilization is a crucial aspect of infrastructure development, especially in regions like India, where diverse soil types present challenges to construction projects. This research paper delves into cost-effective methods for enhancing soil stability tailored specifically to the Indian context. Through a comprehensive study, various low-cost techniques are explored for their effectiveness in improving soil properties and mitigating construction risks. By analysing case studies and experimental data, this paper aims to offer valuable insights into sustainable soil stabilization practices that can support infrastructure development in India while considering economic constraints and environmental sustainability.
Keywords: soil stabilization, infrastructure development, low-cost methods, construction, soil properties, sustainability, economic constraints, environmental impact
