This paper describes a study on the effect of adding cement and silica fume with cement on the engineering properties (Compaction and Shear strength) of the clayey soil. Inorganic clay with low plasticity was used in this study as a natural soil. A series of laboratory experiments have been implemented and varieties of samples were made by mixing both cement and silica fume with cement . Four different percentages of cement (2%, 4%, 6% and 8%) and three different percentages of silica fume (2%, 4% and 6%)were used as a stabilization materials . Test results show that adding cement and silica fume with cement decreases the maximum dry density and increases the optimum moisture content. The unconfined compressive strength of the soil was found to increase significantly with increase in the cement and silica fume with cement content especially after a long curing period.
