Abstract: The occurrence and distribution of soils in nature varies from location to location. The type of soil depends on the rock type, its mineral constituents and the climatic regime of the area. Soils are used as construction materials or the civil engineering structures are founded in or on the surface of the earth. Geotechnical properties of soils influence the stability of civil engineering structures. As soil is the ultimate load bearer so it’s stability is a necessity and hence many efforts have been done for its stabilization. The performance of any structure depends upon the behavior of underlying soil mass and on the bearing capacity of soil. Expansive soil or clay is considered to be one of the more problematic soils and it causes damage to various civil engineering structures because of its swelling and shrinking potential when it comes into contact with water. Expansive soils behave differently from other normal soils due to their tendency to swell and shrink. In a well-organized environment, disposal of waste poses a great threat as regards where and how to effectively dispose the waste material without any harmful effect to society. In the recent times, utilization of solid waste materials in soil stabilization has gained eminence as an effective means to manage wastes generated from various industries. In this paper, a review is given on utilization of different solid waste materials which have been used to stabilize soft soils. Though, there are lots of methods and techniques are available to stabilize these soil. This study provides how waste materials can be used to stabilize the soft soil using alkali activation technology.
