Application of natural fiber in ground improvement

The ground improvement for enhancing earth structure and stability by natural material has acceptable demand due to reducing negative effect of cost and project. This thesis presented a new sand mixture design based on mineralogy and morphology. The sand-bentonite-oil palm fiber interaction has been...

description The ground improvement for enhancing earth structure and stability by natural material has acceptable demand due to reducing negative effect of cost and project. This thesis presented a new sand mixture design based on mineralogy and morphology. The sand-bentonite-oil palm fiber interaction has been studied for understanding design and analyzing unstable sandy subsoil. The ground improvement was simplified. The sand-bentonite-oil palm fiber was test for improving shear strength parameter. The bentonite thermally has been process under 100 0C, 300 0C, 500 OC and 700 oc for 1 hour. The percentage of bentonite and oil palm fiber were 1% and 2% by weight of the mixture. The result indicates that 2 % fiber and 2% modifies bentonite give the best result as 59 kPa by using 500°C of modifies bentonite.
