Constructions on clayey subgrade are in some cases not recommended due to the inadequate bearing capacity of this type of soil to support the traffic loads transmitted by the structure of a pavement. Soil stabilization is a widely used technique in the construction of paved roads and unpaved roads located on poor subgrade. This is because the stabilization methods allow to improve the engineering properties and durability of the subgrade. So, this research seeks to present a soil stabilization technique through the use of rice husk ash. This stabilizing agent improving the mechanical properties of a subgrade, at the same time represents an eco-friendly solution. This is because the use of rice husk ash helps to minimize the production of waste that will be disposed of into the environment. This research work consisted in the development of a bibliographic review of experimental studies where samples of low plasticity clays (CL) were stabilized with different percentages of rice husk ash. This with the aim of identifying which engineering properties improve in a clay with the application of this stabilizing agent. In addition, percentages of optimum ash content were determined for physical properties, mechanical properties, resistance properties and hydraulic properties in stabilized clay samples. Regarding the physical properties, the results show an increase in the liquid limit and a decrease in the plastic limit as the percentage of rice husk ash increases. In addition, the specific gravity of the stabilized material decreases between 5% to 9% with the increase of the stabilizing agent. The mechanical properties of stabilized clays showed an increase in the CBR bearing capacity as the presence of rice husk ash increases; however, after the optimal percentage, which is close to 15%, the maximum CBR value tends to decrease. From the Proctor type compaction tests, it is carried out that as the rice husk ash increases, the maximum dry density (MDD) decreases and the optimum moisture content (OMC) increases. Regarding the strength properties, the unconfined compression tests obtained an optimum content of 25% of rice husk ash, after which the compressive strength tends to decrease. The same was done from the bibliographic compilation of triaxial tests carried out on clayey samples stabilized with ash, where the optimum percentage was 25%, after this value the resistant properties such as cohesion and friction angle decreased. Finally, from the analysis of the hydraulic properties, it was achieved that, at higher percentages of rice husk ash, the permeability coefficient tends to decrease due to the cementation of the soil particles that reduces the flow rate in the soil. stabilized. The research concludes that the use of husk ash as a stabilizing rice material for clayey subgrade proves to be a very appropriate and optimal technique due to the improvement of properties such as bearing capacity, friction angle and cohesion. In addition, other favorable advantages are its availability and the lower environmental impact compared to other stabilization techniques.
