Abstract

Soft clay has a relatively low subgrade bearing capacity. The aim is to obtain physical values, mineralogy, mechanical strength values, values for reduction. The research method used is preloading in a test tube measuring 50×70×150 cm. Each cycle of preloading and thermal induction used a fixed load of 0.015 kg/cm². Thermal induction is given vertically and obliquely with temperature variations of 100, 200, 300, and 400 °C. The main observation point is a distance of 15 cm from the center of the induction. At 400 °C inclined induction, the water content is 17.36% (from the initial water content of 59.07%), the soil cohesion is 21.75. kN/m², the value of unconfined compressive strength is 67.72 kN/m², the highest modulus of elasticity is 4593 kN/m2, and the decrease is 5.13 cm. XRD, SEM, EDS results before heating showed mineralogy 0 (65.06%), Ca (13.30%), Na (3.64%), Mg (2.15%), Al (6.63%), Si (8.52%), Sn (0.70%) and did not change significantly after heating at 400 °C. The results after heating included 0 (58.39%), Ca (14.09%), Na (0.72%), Mg (1.16%), Al (6.63%), Si (14.72%), Sn (2.54%). The novelty obtained is to change very soft conditions became medium conditions. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091705 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This study aims to determine the material composition and dimensions of X-block, develop a slope reinforcement model using X-block, evaluate the mechanical behavior of slopes that are reinforced with rock-bound by X-block, and analyze the performance of slope reinforcement using X-block. This research was conducted at Hasanuddin University's soil mechanics and civil engineering structure laboratory. The model scale test was employed in this study. The geometrical speciation of the test box is 150 cm in length, 60 cm in width, and 100 cm in height. The X-block model was produced using concrete with a FC of 25 MPa. The X-block was divided into two types: X-block type 1 and X-block type 2. Tensile strength testing is performed on the X-block. The slopes are made of clay soil and have a slope angle of 70 degrees. The loading test was conducted in three stages: without block, with X-block type 1, and with X-block type 2. The loading test uses a hydraulic pump equipped with a load cell and LVDT. The tensile strength of X-block type 1 is 2.56 MPa, whereas X-block type 2 has a tensile strength of 4.35 MPa. The development of the type X-block design, which is used as a retaining wall material, has shown that it can effectively withstand landslides on the slopes under consideration. The slope safety factor rose dramatically after being reinforced with type X-blocks, reaching 2.73 for both X-block type 1 and X-block type 2. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-03-014 Full Text: PDF
