Fine sand is not readily suitable for construction of embankments for roads. This research paper includes laboratory experimental work, software work, as well as cost analysis work. Different laboratory experiments were performed on fine sand with direct mixing of fine sand of different dry densities 1.50 gm/cc, 1.55 gm/cc and 1.58 gm/cc and different percentage 0%, 2%, 4%, 8% and 12% of sanitary ware waste material having particles size range between 2.36 mm to 4.75 mm. A geotechnical software was used for stability analysis of road embankments of various heights of 6.0 m, 7.5 m and 9.0 m. The rate analysis was done manually according to B.S.R., P.W.D., Rajasthan, India and cost reduction ratios were calculated. The cross-sectional area and construction cost of road embankment were reduced to a great-extent.
