Discussion

Experimental analysis shows enhanced compaction and stability in clay soils using sorghum husk ash-blended cement.

Sorghum husk ash-blended cement improved the compaction and bearing capacity of expansive clay soils.
Tests indicated significant increases in California Bearing Ratio values, reaching 88.7% at high compaction.
Atterberg limits confirmed measurable plasticity with liquid and plastic limits of 44.3% and 28.1%, respectively.
The study demonstrates that sorghum husk ash can be a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to ordinary Portland cement.

Kathenya et al. (2025) studied this question.
