TINJAUAN CBR LEMPUNG YANG DISTABILISASI DENGAN KAPUR PADA PEMADATAN SISI BASAH

ABSTRACT: Road construction that was built on expansive clay is likely to be damaged before reaching planned time limit, for examples:  cracking,  upheaval  and  settlement.  It  relates  to  CBR  value.  One  of  expansive  clay’s  improvement  that  its bearing capacity influenced by water content is lime stabilization. Sometimes, the compaction of soil–lime stabilization is limited by wet soil quarry condition or rainy that cause water content is greater than optimum moisture content (OMC) on  compaction  test.  This  research  is  designed  to  observe  CBR  value  of  the  soil-lime  stabilization  in  the  wet  side compaction.The method is mixing the former clay from Gading – Gunung Kidul with 0%, 2%, 4%, 6%, 8% and 10% of lime from its dry weight. To observe the physical and mechanical properties changing of soil-lime stabilization, gradation test,  specific  gravity  test,  Atterberg  limits  test,  compaction  test  and  CBR  test  are  done.  CBR  test  is  designed  in  3  days curing in the optimum and wet side conditions, CBR test is also designed in 4 days soaking. The  result  shows  the soil is anorganic clay with high plasticity or CH in USCS. In AASHTO, the soil is classified in A-7-6. Lime stabilization with  3  days  curing  can  improve  physical  and  mechanical  properties  of  soil.  It  can  decrease plasticity  index  of  soil, increase  shear  strength  parameter,  increase  CBR  value  and  decrease  swelling  potential  value.  The    CBR  value  of  the former  soil  and  the  mixed  soil-lime  in  the  wet  side  compaction  are  smaller  than  the  ones  in  the  optimum  condition, especially  for  the  former  soil.  The  CBR  value  of  the  mixed  soil-lime  in  the  wet  side  compaction is  nearly  same  in  the optimum compaction. The swelling goes down as the lime adding in the wet side compaction.
