Stabilized Adobe is the traditional technique of making brick such adobe bricks suffers from water attack and cracks, thus they need prevention to keep them in a good condition. To overcome from this draw back stabilizers should be used. In our present study lime and cement as a stabilizer are used. Stabilizers used for both 15% clay content and 10% clay content stabilized adobes.in this study we adopted pugging technique for preparation of blocks. This paper studies the relationship between soil properties, stabilizers, strength properties and durability of stabilized Adobe. In all aspects cement with !0% clay content stabilized adobe shows good performance compared to lime alone and combination of lime and cement.
