Ground stabilisation is very important before constructing railway tracks and railway drainage space, because the foundation of every construction is very important as it will provide life to the construction. Obviously making construction on clay soil is not a wise thing to do. If you are working on a ground which incorporates clay soil, then you first need to make it stable and strong by sufficient add on materials.
Moistures available in the soil changes constantly and it reduce the stability of the ground. We all know that during wet season clay expand more on the other hand it shrinks in dry condition. This is pretty much noticeable in the soil itself, if you see the ground you will find out cracks and shrunken appearance on it. The areas which have pond or lake near to them, usually faces the problems of cracks and unstable ground.
For building up a solid basement you need to have ground which is stable enough. And if are you working on the ground which is full of clay soil and doesn’t have the solid base, then you need to add sufficient material like lime in to it. It will make the base solid and give a good foundation to the contraction. Whether constructing railway tracks or space for railway drainage, ground stabilisation is mandatory.
