Effect of Curing Time on Lime-Stabilized Sandy Soil against Internal Erosion

One of the key challenges geotechnical engineers face is failure embankments due to internal soil erosion. Therefore, stabilization against erosion becomes necessary prevent embankment failure. This paper aims use lime stabilize sandy Two types (poorly graded and well-graded) were treated with different percentages (based on dry weight soil) curing times (1 day, 2 days, 7 days). For poorly soil, used from 0.0% 6.0% an increment 1% by soil. While for well-graded 0.0%, 1.0%, 2.0%, 3.0% The hole test (HET) was utilized analyze parameters samples. Results proved that effective agent Moreover, optimum erosion, required about 5.0% lime, respectively, a time days. Significant reduction in rate improvement index critical stress observed at stabilization. In addition, results demonstrated increases reduces
