1- Soil stabilization is used to reduce the permeability and compressibility of the soil mass in earth structures and to increase its shear strength.
2- It is used to increase the bearing capacity of foundation soils.
3- It is used to improve the natural soils for the construction of highway and airfields.
4- It is also used to make an area trafficable within a short period of time for emergency purposes.
5- Soil stabilization is used to increase the unit weight of the soil.
6- It helps to decrease the void ratio of the soil.
7- Stabilization of soil increases the shear strength of the soil.
