Abstract
This project report titled “evaluating the effect of This project report titled “evaluating the effect of coffee husk ash used as a soil stabilizer”
majorly aimed at reducing the cost of soil stabilization in that the usage of a cheaper
alternative stabilizing agent was undertaken by assessing the properties of soil free of
CHA and a mixture of soil and CHA of varying amounts. The tests carried out on its
properties including grading, Atterberg limits, MDD, and CBR tests which proved that the
properties of the soil improved with increasing amounts of CHA up to the optimum of
10% and past that the properties deteriorated as fully elaborated in this reportused as a soil stabilizer”
