Improved strength of peat soil by using kaolin and quicklime stabilizer

Due to tropical climate and topographical conditions, peat soil or organic soil is abundant in Malaysia. Peat soil is also known as problematic soil due to low in shear strength and high compressibility. This research focus on shear strength and the objective was to find out the effectiveness of kao...
