Abstract: The black cotton soil is mainly inorganic clay and owns medium to high compressibility, this soil also referred as expansive soil. The properties of the soil are influenced by the environment condition the soil gets swell during winter season and shrinks during summer seasons .the black cotton soil was unable to withstand the high impact load from the heavy structures due to constant change in properties of the soil parallel to environmental condition, in order to make it possible the black cotton soils are get mixed with the stabilizing materials ,in the same manner in this analysis the black cotton soil properties are analyzed by using waste cloth. The highlighting reason for using waste cloth is because of its easy availability, eco-friendly and its fibrous properties. the waste cloth are collected from the cloth shop and stitching shop, the black cotton soils are collected from the city of Bhalki.
