Red clay soil is widely distributed in south China, the microstructure of red clay soil was studied applying scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and the X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) test found that a large number of swelling inducing minerals, for example, montmorillonite, illite-montmorillonite or chlorite-smectite were contained in the red clay soil. Shield tunneling in this kind of stratum is prone to arising “cake” and “arch” phenomena and it prone to lead screw conveyor device unsmooth dumping, so soil improvement measures must be taken. Foam as the most advanced soil conditioner has been widely used in shield construction. Using self-developed foam agent, experimental research on foam conditioning red clay soil was carried out, test results show that foam can not only significantly reduce the soil shear strength, but also can greatly enhance the soil's compressibility and fluidity, which is significant for the smooth dumping and excavation face stability maintenance.

Nowadays, the construction of cement composite using 3D printers is considered one of the most promising methods of automation of building processes. However, the compositions of cement composites have several disadvantages, such as high cost, short workability and etc. It has been suggested that clay soil as an additive will help to solve these problems partially. The aim of the work is development the cement compositions with clay soil, for use in 3D printers to construction. The composite consists of cement paste with clay soil and additives. To study printability of a composite the rheological properties in a fresh state were studied. The study of the rheological properties of composites was carried out using a flow table test for mortar. The key factor for determining the suitability of the composite for printing was accepted the diameter of the cone after shaking. The test results showed the possibility of replacing cement paste with clay soil up to 25% which leads to a reduction in the cost and an increase in printability with a slight decrease in the strength of the obtained material to 7%. Utilizing of soil from the construction site provides maximum economic efficiency of the material application.

Stable and adaptive superior varieties play an important role in increasing plant productivity. The technological innovation was carried out by studying the yield GEI. However, if only paying attention to yield GEI would not be enough in selecting stable and adaptive varieties, so this research used a combination of AMMI and SEM methods. Through the SEM-AMMI, GEI modeling was carried out by taking into account the physiological processes of growth and genotype development which explained the relationship between yield GEI components and how it affected yield GEI. The results of the AMMI biplot showed that genotypes were adaptable and relatively stable were planted in five planting locations, namely Biru Lancor and Tinombo. SEM test results showed that the yield component has an effect on production yield, where the tuber weight above the average will give relatively more onion yields and genotypes planted in relatively low locations, soil pH above 6 and dusty clay soil conditions will produce relatively more red onions and quality.

ABSTRAK Tanah lempung lunak adalah salah satu jenis tanah dasar yang sering menyebabkan masalah dalam berbagai jenis konstruksi karena daya dukungnya rendah dan kepekaan terhadap perubahan kadar air cukup tinggi. Oleh karena itu, perlu dilakukan perbaikan tanah dasar menggunakan bahan kimia Terra Firma untuk meningkatkan daya dukung tanah dasarnya. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan dengan pengambilan sampel dari Proyek Summarecon di Gedebage, Kota Bandung, termasuk pengujian skala laboratorium, untuk menentukan sifat fisik dan mekanik tanah lempung lunak. Uji skala laboratorium telah dilaksanakan pada berbagai variasi campuran tanah dengan komposisi Terra Firma 3%, 6%, dan 9%. Berdasarkan hasil uji laboratorium diperoleh nilai CBR tanah dasar sebesar 2,7% dan UCS 2,02 kg/cm², sedangkan hasil pengujian menunjukkan bahwa campuran Terra Firma yang paling efektif adalah 6% dengan waktu pemeraman selama 21 hari, dimana nilai CBR yang diperoleh sebesar 37,28% dan UCS 9,66 kg/cm². Oleh karena itu dapat disimpulkan bahwa penggunaan stabilisasi kimia Terra Firma dapat meningkatkan daya dukung tanah lempung lunak hingga 14 kali. Kata kunci: tanah lempung lunak, daya dukung, stabilisasi kimia, Terra Firma. ABSTRACT Soft clay soil is one of the basic types of soil that often causes problems in any kinds of construction due to its low bearing capacity and high sensitivity to changes in moisture content. Therefore, the soil needs to be repaired by applying Terra Firma chemicals to increase the bearing capacity of the soil. This research is conducted by taking soil samples from the Summarecon Gedebage Project area, Bandung City, and was conducted laboratory scale testing, to determine the physical and mechanical properties of soft clay soil. The laboratory scale test was conducted with various variations of ground mixture with Terra Firma 3%, 6%, and 9%. Based on laboratory test results it is found that the base soil CBR value is 2.7% and UCS 2.02 kg/cm², while the applied Terra Firma chemicals comparison result shows that the 6% mixture is the most effective with 21 days curing time, CBR value of 37.28% and UCS 9.66 kg/cm². Therefore it can be concluded that the use of Terra Firma chemicals can increase the bearing capacity of soft clay soil up to 14 times.

Basic Characteristics

This study presents the Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) and microstructure of clay soil stabilized with locally made Biomass Silica (BS) in the form of SH-85. Since the construction of highway on soft soil raises many problems due to its low strength, understanding about the basic characteristics of soft clay and mixed with BS, play important role for improving the strength of the soft clay. The study carried out had the specific objectives to determine engineering properties of soft clay, to investigate the UCS of soft clay treated with BS and to analyze microstructure of the soft soil treated by BS with respect to various curing periods. In this study, 30 samples of clay soil were prepared under various curing periods (0, 7, 14 and 28 days) and mixed with BS at various percentages (5 %, 7 % and 9 %). The test results show that BS can increase the strength of the clay soil. The 9% BS treated sample for 7 days curing time achieved UCS of 710 kPa. This was approximately 6 times greater than that of untreated soil strength. The highest strength was 1216 kPa at 28 days curing for soil mixed with 9% BS. The images of Scanning Electron Microscopic show that the voids of the clay would filled by the new component resulted by the reaction of BS stabilizer with the natural clay samples. This led to a continuous soil fabric resulting with stronger and denser soil.

Simple numerical methods that allow to obtain stress and strain paths in sand during self-boring pressuremeter tests are presented in this paper. The material is considered to undergo deformation in drained and plane-strain conditions. The flow rules of Rowe, Cambridge-type (Cam clay and Nova) model, and the sawtooth model are used in the analysis. Elastic strains are also considered in relation with the flow rule of Rowe. The proposed approach has been evaluated using a reference pressuremeter test performed on Ticino sand in a calibration chamber. The results indicate that the stress–strain–volume change responses of the sand predicted by the various models are quite similar, with and without consideration of the elastic strain components.

Clay is a type of soil that has a high shrinkage when the change in water content. Construction of roads built on clay soil often damaged, eg cracked or bumpy roads would be damaged so that road before reaching the age of the plan. This study analyzes the behavior of clay in the area of Mendalo Darat, Provinsi Jambi, get maximum soil density and optimum moisture content with the addition of gravel 10%, 20%, 30% and 40%, then tested in the from of nature of the soil, the California Bearing Ratio (CBR). The results, according to the Unified Soil Classification System (USCS) methods. The addition of gravel will cause the properties of the soil Liquid Limit (LL) decreased with Plastic Limit (PL) decreased so that the Plasticity Index (PI) decreased. The addition of gravel will be working actively on the CBR test. From the test results obtained, clay that is stabilized with gravel on variations of 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% indicate an increase in crayying capacity soil and significant decrease in plasticity index. On the gravel mixture of 40% there is significant increase in carrying capacity of 11,90% of power support for the original soil, and on the gravel mixture of 40% also decreased index plasticity of 1,21 % of the original soil plasticity index. The smaller the plasticity index, the carrying capacity is getting bigger.Keywords: clay, stabilized, CBR
