Review of soil stabilization techniques: Geopolymerization method one of the new technique
Open accessAbstract
This paper studies the effectiveness of soil stabilizer on the problematic soil or soft soil. It is subjected to instability and massive primary and long term consolidation settlements when subjected to even moderate load increases. The purpose of this study is to review the techniques and materials that have been used in the soil stabilization by previous researchers. The performance of the soil stabilizer for stabilization by means of strength has been highlighted in this study. Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) test was carried out on stabilized soil samples and the results that obtained were discussed. The use of these techniques and materials may provide an inexpensive and advantageous construction process. As a conclusion, the strength of soil can be increased by using these materials and techniques in soil stabilization. This paper gives a comprehensive report on stabilization techniques and materials that have been used for soft soil and also discuss the potential of geopolymerization technology to be one of the new soil stabilization techniques.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
