Effects of Periwinkle Shell Ash on Lime-Stabilized Lateritic Soil
This study assesses the effects of periwinkle shell ash (PSA) on lime-stabilized lateritic soil. Preliminary tests were carried out on the natural soil sample for the purposes of identification and classification. The soil sample was classified as A-7-5.
