The Way

Land is the foundation for construction. Foundation is the lowest part of a construction, serves to channel the load directly from the construction structure to the soil layer at underneath it. Soils that have bad properties are very unfavorable if used for something construction, especially for highway pavement. The way to increase the carrying capacity of clay soil is to do soil stabilization efforts, that is, using roadbooster as a stabilizing chemical and is expected to improve the nature of the clay and meets the requirements for road pavement materials. In this study will stabilization of the clay soil of Tumbang Rungan Village Palangka Raya with the main parameters which is used as a research reference, namely California Bearing Ratio (CBR) immersion and Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS). Based on the results of testing the clay soil of Tumbang Rungan Village, Palangka Raya, the data were obtained: Original ground immersion CBR 7.89%, CBR immersion 0% roadbooster 76%, CBR 4% immersion roadbooster 40.85%, CBR immersion 8% roadbooster 27.08%, UCS original soil 0.56 kg / cm2, UCS 0% roadbooster 7.30 kg / cm2, UCS 4% roadbooster 7.40 kg / cm2, and UCS 8% roadbooster 8.30 kg / cm2. From the CBR data, you can see the value The highest CBR is when mixing 0% roadbooster or without additional roadbooster, while the highest UCS value lies in mixing 8% roadbooster.

AbstractThe use of waste materials as an additive in soil stabilization has been widespread. This is important in terms of recycling of waste materials and reducing environmental pollution. The objective of this study is to investigate the beneficial reuse of marble dust and fly ash in soil stabilization. Tests were performed on clay soil mixtures amended with marble dust and fly ash. Marble dust was used as an activator due to fly ash being inadequate for self-cementing. Unconfined compressive strength (qu), freeze-thaw, swelling, and California bearing ratio (CBR) tests were conducted to investigate the effect of marble dust and fly ash, curing time, and molding water content on geotechnical parameters. Addition of marble dust and fly ash increased unconfined compressive strength, CBR, and freeze-thaw strength, but these additives decreased swelling potential and grain loss after freeze-thaw. Increasing the curing time results in increased strength of mixtures and decreased grain loss. As a result, this study shows that the geotechnical properties of clay soil are improved with the addition of marble dust and fly ash. This is an economical and environmentally friendly solution.

Water Saturated

Clay soils are soils that have high shrinkage potential and have good carrying capacity in water unsaturated conditions but poor in water-saturated conditions. Clay soil has a low carrying capacity, so to increase the carrying capacity of the soil it needs to be stabilized by using an added material which is sand. Land used for 100% disturbed soil, 95% disturbed soil + 5% sand, 90% disturbed soil + 10% sand, 85% disturbed soil + 15% sand, with curing time 3,7,14, and 28 days. The mixture was tested using aunconfined compressive strength test instrument with SNI 03-6887-2002 method. The results of the unconfined compressive strength test showed that the increase in maximum soil strength occurred in the addition of 90% disturbed soil + 10% sand at the age of 28 days curing, which reached 1,194 kg/cm2. But the results of unconfined compressive strength increased when the mixture of 85% disturbed soil + 15% of sand reaching 1,348 kg / cm2. Based on testing that the more amount of sand is added, the higher the value of unconfined compressive strength obtained.

Twenty soil samples collected from the failed portions in the study area were air dried for two weeks before analyses. Each soil samples were subjected to eight engineering tests which include: natural moisture content, atterberg limit, specific gravity, compaction, unconfined compressive strength, California bearing ratio, grain size and hydrometer analysis. Results showed that the natural moisture content ranged from 17.7% to 37.8%, liquid limit from 48.5% to 62.4%, plastic limit from 18.3% to 26.8%, plasticity index from 25.7% to 37.7%, shrinkage limit from 5.8%-12.5%, optimum moisture content from 14.2% to 32.4%, maximum dry density from 1301 Kg/rn3 to 2002 Kg/rn3. Soaked California bearing ratio ranged from 5% to 17%, unsoaked from 15% to 38%, specific gravity from 2.5 to 2.68, unconfined compressive strength r from 112.8 Kpa to 259.7 Kpa, shear strength from 56.4 Kpa to 129.9 Kpa and hydrometer analysis from 48.5% to 72.1%. Based on the Federal Government specifications for pavement construction, for the soil to be suitable, stabilization with bitumen, Portland cement, lime, coal fly ash, and saw dust should be done. Road pavement failure along Arigidi – Oke Agbe road was due to poor engineering geological condition of the sub-grade soils and poor drainage systems.

Unconfined Compression

Soil stabilization has been widely used as an alternative to substitute the lack of suitable material on site. The use of nontraditional chemical stabilizers in soil improvement is growing daily. In this study a laboratory experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of waterborne polymer on unconfined compression strength and to study the effect of cement grout on pre-venting of liquefiable sandy soils. The laboratory tests were performed including grain size of sandy soil, unit weight, ultrasonic pulse velocity, and unconfined compressive strength test. The sand and various amounts of polymer (1%, 2%, 3%, and 4%) and cement (10%, 20%, 30%, and 40%) were mixed with all of them into dough using mechanical kneader in laboratory conditions. Grouting experiment is performed with a cylindrical mould of  mm. The samples were subjected to unconfined compression tests to determine their strength after 7 and 14 days of curing. The results of the tests indicated that the waterborne polymer significantly improved the unconfined compression strength of sandy soils which have susceptibility of liquefaction.

In remote areas, most roads still use pavements that are very sensitive to climate change, especially those using clay pavements with high plasticity. In addition to the issue of cost, the difficulty of obtaining a proper source of material is another problem that has led to soaring prices for materials. In this regard, a study was conducted using local materials, namely zeolite as a stabilizing material added with waterglass as activating agent. The research began with samples of laterite soil and natural zeolite for XRD test (microstructure testing), and then testing for laterite soil’s index properties and engineering properties, namely Unconfined Compressive Strength and CBR value. The purpose of the test is to determine the correlation between the Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) and the soil bearing capacity (CBR) caused by adding zeolite as stabilizer material and waterglass as activator with increasing curing time. Laterite soils contain a brownish red iron oxide. The stabilizing material zeolite contains a crystalline mineral of alumina silicate SiO2. While waterglass composed of sodium meta silicate. Stabilization carried out by mixing 4%, 8%, 12%, 16%, and 20% of zeolite with addition of 2% waterglass, percentage was measured based on soil dry weight. Specimens were tested at curing time of 0, 7, 14, and 28 days. The test result shows increasing UCS and CBR values with increasing percentage of zeolite. At mix of 20% zeolite and 2% waterglass, the unconfined compressive strength reaches 23.54 kg/cm2 with CBR value 58% at 28 days of curing time.

This paper aims to investigate the use of spiral aluminum computer numerical control milling waste (CNC-W) in the construction of road pavement subgrade. The soil (CL) was mixed with CNC-W spirals with ratios of between 0% and 20%, and 5 percent increments by dry weight with different water contents. California Bearing Ratio (CBR), Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS), and consolidation tests were conducted. The experimental results indicated that the inclusion of CNC-W spirals increased the CBR value of clay up to the 15% mixture ratio, then decreased it. Similarly, the UCS value of clay was increased to the same ratio, whilst the UCS was not able to be determined due to the failing of all specimens with a mixture ratio higher than 15%. The permeability and swelling values, as well as the consolidation characteristics of the mixtures, were defined. The swelling percentages decreased from 1,15 cm/sec to 0,81 cm/sec with an increment in the CNC-W spiral content. A reduction was observed in the coefficient of permeability (k) values up to 15% mixture ratio, whilst it remained constant with change in CNC-W spiral content with a 20% mixture ratio. Coefficient of consolidation demonstrated a similar pattern of behavior to the permeability changes
