This research aimed to find out the physical and the mechanical characteristics from clay soil at the research location. To find out the magnitude capacity from sand column that occurred in clay soil. Then, to find out the comparison from clay soil subsidence that occurred when given reinforcement by using sand columns and with not given reinforcement, with using several tests that was compared the results from laboratory analysis with the results from plaxis 2D program analysis. The method used in this research was ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) method. The experimental method of test development was carried out to test the design of reinforcement model in a cylindrical tub (iron drum) test with 60 cm diameter and 50 cm height. The research results showed, the pattern from soil subsidence that occurred with using sand column reinforcement was very influential in reduced the soil subsidence. From the results of the laboratory analysis and plaxis 2D program analysis, the reinforcement from sand column as the reinforcement in soil with used the bearing plat. The results were not different in the endloading.
