As the era of development advances, so does the advancement in industrialization, which further led to the generation of waste material. Such material are causing harm to the environment by degrading the land due to waste dumping and harming the local population, so to solve this problem these material have been reused in various construction. In this review paper, solid waste produced in the process of steel manufacturing, which is known as steel slag, has been studied as a road construction material. Steel slag being in a large quantity in solid waste led the attention of various researchers due to its distinctive chemical properties, physical properties, and sustainable to use. The aim of this review paper is to show the summary of the recent advances done by researchers in utilization of steel slag in road construction. This review paper also shows the effect of steel slag on the engineering properties of the soil. The influence of steel slag on plasticity index, compaction, California bearing ratio, and unconfined compressive strength were also studied. After observing the overall result, this study shows that using of steel slag has significantly improved the engineering properties and it also depicts that steel slag can be used for sustainable soil stabilization.
