“…This is due to an increase in the reaction when cement is mixed with water led to increase hydration of cement to fill particles of soil with water. Thus, the shear strength parameters decreased as compared with the samples before soaking condition, and this was also observed by [5].…”

“…This due to increase hydration of cement led to increase the bonding force between grains of soil cement. These findings are also introduced by [4][5][6], and [18][19][20]. Later, Laguros J.G [21] indicated that the cohesion as well as the angle of internal friction increase when the soils are treated with cement, the increase being higher for the granular soils than for the fine grained soils.…”

“…While Balmer [3] concluded that the value of the internal friction angle varies from (36.1º to 43.8º) for fine and coarse-grained stabilized soils. While the shear strength parameters: cohesion(c), and angle of internal friction (∅) increase with increasing cement content according to Al-Aghbari et al [4] and Shooshpasha, and Reza [5]. Ziaie-Moayed et al [6] conducted research to improve the saline soils before and after soaking by using cement and polymer on shear strength and they concluded ;(1) the strength of soil specimens are increased by adding cement and resin epoxy and (2) saline materials have an effect on the strength of the soil specimens; in addition, the shear strength of the soil decreased after soaking.…”

The present paper aims to improve shear strength parameters: cohesion (c), and angle of internal friction (∅) for sandy soil treated by additives before and after soaking. The samples of sandy soil were obtained from Karbala city and then classified as poorly graded sand (SP) with relative density Dr (30%) according to the system of (USCS). The experiment has three stages. In the first stage ,the soil was treated with three different percentages of cement (3 ,5 and 7%) of dry weight for the soil with three different percentages of water content (2, 4 and 8%) in each above percentage of cement, while the second stage includes (2%) of lime from soil weight mixed with each different percentage of cement . In the third stage, (50%) of polymer of cement weight was mixed with each different percentage of cement. An analysis of behavior sandy soils treated by additives was carried out with the Direct Shear Tests. All the samples were cured (3) days before and after soaking. The results of the experiment showed that increase in shear strength parameters of sandy soil; especially the angle of internal friction with the rate value (16.6 %) of cement only, (21.88 %) of cement with lime , (20.3%) of cement with the polymer before soaked condition. After soaking condition, it was increased with the rate value (14.3%) with cement only, (23.57%) of cement with lime, and (15.38%) of cement with the polymer as compared with soil in the natural state.

“…Stabilization is achieved by the addition of proper percentages of cement, lime, fly ash, bitumen, or combinations of these materials to the soil. The selection of type and determination of the percentage of additive to be used is dependent upon the soil classification, and the degree of improvement in soil quality desired [1][2][3].…”

Jambi and Palembang clay soil stabilization for pavement matrix in road construction by using Portland cement type I

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The need for a pavement matrix in road construction, especially in Sumatra area, is now more difficult and expensive because the deposit materials are concentrated in Java and most of them are not available. For this reason, soil stabilization is a way out of this problem. On this basis it is necessary to conduct stabilization research with highly active stabilization material by using Portland cement type I. The soil to be stabilized is clay soil which is derived from the areas of Jambi and Palembang and which has a low CBR value less than the requirement for sub base or pavement (< 10%), with the expected CBR value of stabilization to be suitable for road construction. This research covers physical and soil mechanical properties which are compaction parameter and CBR value with 3 days of dry curing time and 4 days of soak curing time using ASTM test procedure. Variations of cement addition were used of 6%, 8%, and 10% for the clay soil from Palembang and 8%, 10%, and 12% for the clay soil from Jambi, by percentage of dry weight of the sample test. The results of this study showed that the CBR value significantly increased with the addition of cement, with Palembang soil CBR value rising from 3.46% to 130.74% and Jambi soil CBR value rising from 7.20% to 206.43% respectively.

“…Cement is one of the most commonly used materials for soil stabilization. Records from the literature show that cement is an effective stabilizer in the improvement of the strength properties not only coarse-grained soil [1], [2], [3], [4] but also fine-grained soil [5], [6], [7].…”

This paper focuses the results of the improvement in shear strength parameters and CBR of soft clay when stabilized with cement and cement-Palm Kernel Shell Ash (PKSA). Different combinations of soil- cement and soil-cement-PKSA mixtures are prepared with the addition of cement and PKSA in the range of 2-10% by weight of soil. Series of tests including compaction, UCT, and CBR tests were performed. The influence of curing time is also studied on CBR and undrained strength property of various sample combinations. Results indicate that the addition of PKSA to the soil-cement mixtures increases the CBR. The percentage of optimum PKSA content in the mix for soil with 10% cement is 2%. The effect of time on clay, cement, and PKSA mixture is significant, i.e. an average of 0.5% per day.
