A concrete mix of ratio 1:2:4 by volume was used as control; to which the properties of the other mixes were compared. Sawdust was used to replace sand at percentages of 25%, 50%, 75% and by volume. A water cement ratio of 0.55 was adopted. Concrete was produced by mixing the constituent raw materials in an electric concrete mixer.

in concrete production. Sawdust was used to replace fine aggregates from 0% to 50% in steps of 10%. Concrete cubes measuring 150 x 150 x 150mm were cast and their compressive strengths evaluated at 7, 14, 21 and 28 days. Increase in percentage of sawdust in concrete cubes led to a corresponding reduction in compressive strength values.

Combination of lime and cement is used when a soil has too much clay for cement stabilization or too little clay for an extensive reaction with the lime. Lime will make the soil easier to work and the cement will increase the strength. Equal parts of lime and cement are used. Mixing the dry soil with lime first, makes the soil more workable.
