Abstract – Nowadays many experimental studies have been carried on black cotton soil to improve its characteristics. This soils is highly clayey in nature as it has low bearing capacity and high swelling shrinkage characteristics. In most of areas of India there is wide spread of black cotton soil which causes the problem to the civil related structures. This soil mainly shrinks in the absence of moisture and swells in the presence of moisture which may leads to the failure of engineering structures resting on it.

On reviewing various past research works, it has been found that the utilization of admixtures such as fly ash, Rice husk ash, GGBS, WMP, WCP etc. may be used to increase the geotechnical properties of black cotton soil.

Now a day’s rapid industrialization causes problems such as disposal of industrial waste materials, environmental pollution etc. In this review, utilization of industrial material is highlighted. On proper reviewing it has been found that there is a wide scope for utilization of industrial waste and other waste material for the stabilization of expansive soils.

Key Words: Marblewastepowder,Ceramicwastepowder,Blackcottonsoil,CaliforniaBearingRatio,Stabilization,etc.
