Now days, inefficient properties of soils are a critical issue in engineering projects. In some cases, improving the characteristic of unsuitable soil is a fundamental step for making construction. Structures on poor soil show early distress causing the premature failure of the structures. Clayey soil usually have the potential to demonstrate undesirable engineering behaviour , such as low bearing capacity , high shrinkage and swell characteristics and high moisture susceptibility. Stabilisation of these soil is a usual practice for improving the strength. Soil stabilization performed the use of technique to adding a binder to the soil in order to improve the engineering performance of soil. The focus of the present study is to investigate the effect of addition of coarse sand in different percentages by weight to karewa soils taken from Awantipora AIIMS site. From the analysis the variation in the strength parameters с and φ, unconfined compression strength (UCS), CBR value and ultimate bearing capacity will be studied with different percentage of coarse sand.
