Analisa Daya Dukung Tanah pada Tanah Gambut yang Dipadatkan

Abstract

In planning a building construction, stats carrying capacity of the soil is very important, the discussion of peat soil is very interesting, because the nature of the peat soil compressibility, there are two methods that will be discussed in this paper, and then connect the results of the two methods, the method of DCP and Laboratory CBR method. Testing was conducted at two places.Testing methods DCP conducted on peatlands. While CBR method carried out in the laboratory. So that the results of both methods will be sought correlation. Generally, DCP is only used to measure the CBR value of soil. In this research, it is tried to introduce the possibility of appliance DCP to measure the CBR value of penetration macadam pavement. Examination was executed at the gambut soil condition (in the day time, since high burden and temperature) and used 30º cone.DCP was placed directly at the above of pavement surface. The data was analyzed to become the CBR value by using MS-Excel Macro
