The Hydrolysis Characteristics and Compressibility of Soft Clay Soil Improved Using VCM
Ratna Dewi
Abstract:Soft clay is identified to have some unfavorable characteristics when used as the foundation for construction work. This is due to the low bearing capacity and high compressibility which often leads to prolonged consolidation settlement. Therefore, soil improvement is necessary, and this can be achieved through the Vacuum Consolidation Method (VCM). This research focused on conducting laboratory-scale model tests to determine the characteristics of clay soil improved by vacuum consolidation in terms of its phy… Show more
