Conclusions
The theoretical investigations, laboratory experiments, and test control under field conditions showed that loess soils can be effectively stabilized without introducing a binder into the soil, on account of drawing-in, into the exchange reactions in the alkaline medium, of calcium from the absorbing complex of the soil, as well as active silicic acid and alumina from the clay minerals contained in the loesses, with formation of a cementing binder.
