Summary:

This research has been conducted in order to evaluate the compression index of Gypsiferous soil. A series of consolidation experimental tests with different percentage between 5%-20% of gypsum add to the soil have been performed. From the results, it had been seen that with increasing percentage of gypsum the compression index increased with maximum percentage 30.4%.
