An attempt to reduce the amount of environmental wastes and the high cost of conventional
stabilizers has led to continuous studies on the economic utilization of ash from agro-wastes …

This study was carried out to evaluate the efficiency of metals (Ni, Cr, and Mn) removal
using, raw and carbonized rice, millet and corn husks as low cost adsorbents. The sorption …

The current study examined the use of experimental and statistical approach to assess the
influence of compaction energies on geotechnical behaviour of lateritic soil stabilized with …

The utilization of an agricultural waste product known as palm kernel shells (PKS) combined
with fine laterites (from basalt in Bangangté, West Cameroon) to produce low-cost and …

This paper discusses the stabilization of lateritic soil with pulverized palm kernel shell
(PPKS), an agricultural waste, for road construction. Samples of lateritic soil with the addition …

This research explored the possibility of improving the engineering properties of lateritic soil
with pulverized cow bone (PCB), a processed animal waste obtained from slaughtered …

For construction purposes, soil is usually stabilized using lime and/or cement, both of which
are expensive. This study investigated the feasibility of using Rice Husk Ash (RHA) as a …

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is a new concept of concrete mix which flows in a formwork
and consolidates itself without the need for compaction. Effectively compacting concrete can …

This paper investigates on the possibility of improving and comparing the engineering
properties of three samples of lateritic soil from Ogun, Oyo and Osun with pulverized cow …

As a result of the rising cost of building materials, it has become necessary to find an
affordable and economically available material which might be partially merged with cement …
