Abstract
Dispersive soil arises significant problems that need attention in geotechnical Engineering. Such soils are easily erodible and keep apart due to the difference in moisture content and exchangeable sodium. This study focuses on enhancing sub-grade of the road by stabilizing dispersive soil with lime, and it provides better index properties, reduces dispersivity, increases Unconfined compression strength, and California Bearing Ratio value with an increasing lime quantity and curing in different test conditions. The effective lime content should be 7% to 9 % of dry soil weight as it provides high strength and quality of subgrade pavement rating.
