Black cotton soil which is one of the major soil deposits in India becomes highly problematic because of its property of higher degree of swelling and shrinkage. These soils are used in subgrade of pavement and also in construction of structures. Hence in order to improve the properties of such soils many methods are available like soil stabilization, soil replacement, moisture control, prewetting etc. In recent years, soil stabilization by using various minerals like quarry dust, saw dust, copper dust and fly ash were most commonly used. These solid wastes are day by day increasing in India, which is not environmental friendly hence they have to be recycled. Thus, a review is presented to make use of those wastes in soil stabilization. In this paper, the study mainly focusses on stabilization of soil using solid waste. To understand the performance of stabilized soil, its properties like Atterberg limits, compaction characteristics, swelling, shear strength, CBR value and other Index & Engineering properties were discussed.
