The lateritic soil sample was stabilized by adding cement by weight at rates of 3%, 6%, 9%, and 12% to the non-stabilized soil sample. The sand was also used to stabilize the soil sample at 15%, 30%, 45%, and 60% by weight. The laterite was additionally stabilized with varying percentages of both cement and sand.
