Abstract

The existing subgrade for road construction is quite diverse, and sometimes it does not meet the standards for construction subgrade. Repair efforts are needed if the existing land has a fairly low CBR (California Bearing Ratio) value. Stabilization materials for soil improvement can use waste in the form of marble ash, and as a comparison in this research improvements were also conducted using the biogrouting method. The aim of this research is to obtain the effect of marble ash stabilization and biogrouting on the CBR value. The research was carried out through CBR tests on a physical model of soil stabilized with 3-6% marble ash and soil improved using the bacteria bacillus subtilis and bacillus amyloliquefaciens. Tests are differentiated based on the thickness of the stabilized soil, which is 10–30 cm. The research results showed that marble ash-stabilized soil resulted in a better increase in CBR values compared to soil improved using the biogrouting method. CBR values that meet standards for road construction base soils are obtained on soil stabilized with 6% marble ash with a minimum stabilized soil layer thickness of 20 cm.

Abstract

Soft clay subgrade is unsuitable for road pavement because it has low bearing capacity and CBR value. Therefore, the soil needs stabilization, but with a sustainable stabilization method. One of these methods is biogrouting, namely grouting, which uses bacteria. Thus, the main objective of this study was to determine the performance of Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens bacteria in stabilizing the soil. The performance of these bacteria was quantified by the CBR value and soil-bearing capacity experimentally in a laboratory model test with each soil thickness of 0-30 cm. The CBR value of the soil improved by the biogrouting method by about 4 times the CBR value of untreated soil. The increase in bearing capacity was obtained about 4 times for treated soil with Bacillus subtilis and about 5 times for treated soil with Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. The layer thickness significantly improves the performance of the subgrade at a layer thickness of 20 cm. The new result of this study is that both bacteria are native Indonesian bacteria, so they are suitable for use in Indonesia. In addition, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens has never been used in research to increase soil-bearing capacity.
