Soil stabilisation is a widely used geotechnical technique for improving the engineering properties of weak soils to make them suitable for
The traditional methods of soil stabilization have been widely applied in geotechnical engineering because they have been proved to be reliable and easy to apply. One of the oldest methods is mechanical stabilization, where soils are compacted, densified and mixed together in order to enhance strength and reduce compressibility . Rolling, vibration, and dynamic compaction are used to improve the interlocking of particles and minimise the amount of voids and thus they are applicable to granular [...] soil stabilization does not only increase the performance of the environment 3 E3S Web of Conferences 702, 01005 (2026) ISDCP 2026 but it also promotes long-term economic and social gains, which makes geotechnical engineering practice inter-related with the global sustainability objectives. 3 Methodology The section specifies the systematic framework to be used in analysing research trends on soil stabilization methods of weak soils. It provides transparency and reproducibility through the [...] will give a solid and data-oriented summary of existing literature on soil stabilization research, which would benefit both researchers, professionals, and policymakers to understand research hotspots, the direction to take in future research, and how to make sustainable infrastructures. 1 Introduction The soil stabilization is a core geotechnical activity targeting to enhance the engineering characteristics of soil to render it fit to be used in construction and development of infrastructures.

construction must take full advantage of on-site construction materials because all additional materials and equipment must be airlifted in to ensure rapid response. The attractive engineering and economic benefits of soil stabilization make it neces-sary that this construction alternative be considered. Yet, in many cases, the engi-neer has no past experience or specialized training in soil stabilization techniques. To alleviate this problem, an index system is required that will allow the [...] of the soil (Fig. 5). The Air Force (~8) and The Asphalt lnstitute (15) recommendations are rather general in nature. --Several methods are available to the engineer for selecting the quantity of cutback asphalts. The California CKE method could be utilized as could equations developed in Oklahoma (48) and by The Asphalt Institute (15) based on the surface-area concept.
