%T EXPERIMENT THE EFFECTS OF SOAKING TIME VARIATION ON THE
BEARING CAPACITY AND SWELLING OF SOFT CLAY STABILIZED
USING IONIC SOIL STABILIZER 2500
%X Development of a construction or building is closely related with the physical and
mechanical condition of the soil, and requires a good strength subgrade. But in
practice, not all kind of soil has a good physical and mechanical characteristic in its
original condition. Therefore, needs soil improvement efforts with the stabilization
method. Stabilization effort which currently is mostly done is stabilization with
additive materials, for example using Ionic Soil Stabilizer 2500 (ISS 2500).
The type of soil which stabilized is soft clay from Belimbing Sari Village, District
Jabung, East Lampung Regency. This research was conducted with two treatments on
soil, that are original soil without adding materials and stabilized soil with adding
materials ISS 2500 with examination for soaked CBR, consistency limit, and swelling
potential. ISS 2500 optimum content was mixed with 0,8 ml and then carried out
soaking the soil samples for 7 days, 14 days, and 28 days.
The longer soaking time variations cause increase of water absorbed of the soil that
will make getting soaked CBR values decrease, while the Plasticity Index value tends
to increase. Swelling Potential value also tends to increase as the length of time of
soaking.
