PENGARUH PENAMBAHAN SERBUK BATA MERAH TERHADAP STABILITAS TANAH LEMPUNG SEBAGAI TANAH DASAR JALAN
Abstract: Clay consists of
grains - grains are very small (<0002 mm) and shows the nature - the nature of
plasticity and cohesion. Cohesion indicates the fact that part - the part that
is attached to each other, while the plasticity is a trait that allows the form
of the material was changed - edit without changing the content or without
returning to its original form, and without any cracks or brokens. And clay
with high plasticity index has strong support low when used as a basic
foundation of the highway, so the need for soil improvement.
From the above problems then this study aims to engineer clay with red
brick powder in four comparisons. The first native land. Both the original soil
mixed with red brick powder 5%. The third native soil mixed with red brick
powder 7.5%. The four original soil mixed with red brick powder 10%. Each of
these sought specific gravity, liquid limit, plastic limit and plasticity index
on the original soil, mixing 5%, 7.5% and 10%. From the analysis of data
obtained the following conclusion: the original soil, the value amounting to
60.9 Liquid limit, plastic limit values of 42.8 and plasticity index value of
18.1. The most optimal additional percentage is 7.5%. And Plasticity Index
value at 7.5% is 20,31.
