Soil Stabilization

Soil stabilization is the process of improving the physical properties of soil to enhance its load-bearing capacity, reduce erosion, and prevent shifting or settling. This technique is commonly used in landscaping and construction to prepare the ground for roads, foundations, and retaining walls. Soil stabilization can be achieved through mechanical means, such as compaction, or by adding chemical agents, like lime, cement, or polymers, that bind the soil particles together. Proper soil stabilization ensures that the soil remains stable under the weight of structures and during changes in weather conditions, thereby extending the life and safety of the construction project.
