Soil stabilization is necessary when the available soil for construction projects, such as black cotton soil, is not adequate for the intended application. In order to improve the strength and stability of a certain soil mass as well as other engineering and physical features, a process known as soil stabilization is performed. For the purpose of a foundation, the soil must be solid and sturdy. However, the expansive nature of some soils, particularly black cotton soil, causes issues. cotton in black Montmorillonite is present in large concentrations in black cotton soil. Which is the cause of the expansiveness. These properties result in sudden soil cracks. When atmospheric conditions change, using this kind of land could seriously injure the building. The soil can be stabilized by applying an admixture that lowers its swelling potential in order to get rid of it. This article discusses a variety of soil stabilizing techniques. Some techniques, such as chemical stabilization and lime stabilization, have a negative impact on the soil's chemical composition. One of the most efficient methods for stabilization is to employ industrial waste. It has been shown that using waste materials for this purpose improves the geophysical characteristics of expansive soils. Industrial wastes such as cement kiln dust saw dust, electrolyte lignin, fly ash, micro-fine slag, copper slag, red mud, brick dust, polyvinyl waste, ceramic dust and other wastes utilized for soil stabilization are discussed here. Finally, we'll talk about the future aspects of the usage of Copper slag, which is commonly utilized in civil engineering, may also be used to stabilize the soil.
