Lime for the stabilization of soils has many advantages, both economic as well as environmental. For example, the fact that stabilizing soils for construction works with lime, allows the materials present in the zone of the works to be taken advantage of, avoiding the management costs related to this material, which if it were not stabilized with lime would have to be substituted by a suitable alternative material. Thus, stabilizing soils with lime makes works more sustainable, both environmentally as well as economically, because in just a few minutes lime modifies a plastic soil with little load-bearing capacity into a rigid, easily compacted surface with excellent load-bearing capabilities where machinery can operate without any difficulty.
