This paper is concerned with the influence of additives such as lime byproduct - lime kiln dust and lime on the stabilisation of fine-grained soil commonly found in Narrogin area in Western Australia. The effect of lime kiln dust or lime on the engineering properties of the fine-grained soil, with the clay fraction of 41 percent of the weight of the soil are discussed. It was found that the addition of both lime or lime kiln dust greatly improves the engineering properties of the soil. Lime kiln dust exhibited the same characteristics as the lime, however, it did not have the same degree of effectiveness as the lime.
