SOIL STABILIZATION PROPOSAL
for ROAD DESIGN

1. INTRODUCTION
At Karawang West Java, a factory will be constructed soon. We propose the soil stabilization to improve
and increase strength of soil in this area.
Soil stabilization can be is used for :
a. Increasing Bearing Capacity of subgrade. e. Making Separator Layer.
b. Decreasing expansion of expansive soil. f. Making Beam Effect, etc.
c. Reduce the damage caused by settlement.
d. Making Impermeable Layer

2. SOIL CONDITION

2.1. SOIL CONDITION

There are two kinds of soil at site. We carried out the trial mix of soil stabilization test.

Soil Color Content Wet Soaked

Density CBR
Soil (1) < Surface> Yellowish 45.00 % 1.737 t/m3 5.10% 1.91%
Brown
Soil (2) <Bottom> Reddish 45.45% 1.722 t/m3 2.53% 1.77%
Brown

According to the "General Guidelines for Road Asphalt Pavement" issued by Japan Road Association, weak
soil (CBR<3%) should be replaced with borrowing material or should be stabilized so that the CBR
exceeds 3%.

2.2. DESIGN PROPOSAL

For design, 15% is taken as CBR after stabilization and design CBR assuming equals 5 %.

3. DESIGN CBR OF SUBGRADE


One meter depth of soil under the pavement is called as subgrade. The bearing capacity of the subgrade is the
basis to determine thickness of pavement; the bearing capacity is determined based on its CBR.
According to "General Guidelines for Road Asphalt Paving", in cases where stabilizing method is applied
for the subgrade, CBR of the part subtracted 20 cm from the depth of stabilization and underlying the effective
depth mentioned above should be mean value of those of stabilized soil and original soil.

Design CBR of subgrade is calculated by the following equation:

Design CBR :

Page 3
Example Road Design

3
(Z-20) x CBR11/3+ 20 x CBR21/3+ (100-Z) x CBR31/3
=
100

where ,
CBR1 : CBR after stabilization (%)
maximum CBR for stabilized soil should be less or equal 20 %.
CBR2 : CBR for decreasing layer (%)
CBR2 = (CBR1+CBR3)/2
CBR3 : CBR for original soil (%)
Z : Stabilized Thickness (cm)

In this case, we design required thickness of stabilization as follow :


Disain CBR DCBR = 5%
Target CBR after stabilizat CBR1 = 15%
CBR of original soil CBR3 = 1.77% { Soil from "Location (2)" }

Design CBR :

3
(Z-20) x CBR11/3+ 20 x CBR21/3+ (100-Z) x CBR31/3
= > 5%
100

3
(Z-20) x 151/3+ 20 x ((15+1.77)/2)1/3+ (100-Z) x 1.771/3
= > 5%
100

From the above equation, required thickness (Z) of stabilization becomes as follows :
Z= 46.74 cm ~ 50 cm

4. DETERMINATION OF MIXING RATE AT CONSTRUCTION SITE

Required strength at site : CBR > 15%

Required strength at laboratory :


Required strength at site
CBR at laboratory =
Ratio of strength at site to that at laboratory

Page 5
Example Road Design

Considering of the differences between mixing method at site and at laboratory, ratio of strength at
site to that at laboratory is taken = 0.5, so :

CBR at laboratory = CBR at site / 0.5


= 15% / 0.5 = 30%

Based on the result of CBR test at laboratory and from "Chart Relationship Mixing Rate vs CBR" , required
Agent & Mixing Rate is :

S t a b i l i z i n g A g e n t = Soil Stabilization Agent


M i x i n g R a t e = 80 kg/m3

5. CONCLUSION
SOIL (1) <Surface>

to 5% and reduce expansion of expansive soil.

CURING In particular, rapid drying

Page 8
Example Road Design

Confirm that strength reaches the


CONTROL TEST target after the due curing age.

6.2. EXPLANATORY NOTES FOR CONSTRUCTION WORK

1) PREPARATORY WORK
(a) Drainage
On condition that construction site has pools or a high groundwater level. it is necessary to trench tempo-
rary drains so as to prevent water from running into the site.
(b) Removal of foreign materials
Before construction. stumps and roots of plants. concrete fragments, boulders, rubbish and so on should be re-
moved.
(c) Control of moisture content
This method, in general. does not require moisture content control. However on condition that soil is too dry
to be hydrated, it is required to add water until the moisture content of soil reaches around optimum.

2) FIELD TEST
In case of a special or large scale project. it is recommended that a field test should be executed for
checking the following items.
(a) Mixing efficiency

Page 9
Example Road Design

Confirm availability and efficiency of the heaviy equipment used for mixing work at site.
Also confirm propriety of the mixing way ( dry mixing or slurry mixing). the mixing rate prescribed by results of
laboratory test and so on.
(b) Applicability
Determine construction method ( especially mixing method), type and number of heavy equipment used and so
on.
(c) Strength of Stabilized Layer
Observe the achievement of target strength.
(d) Influence of construction on environmental factors
Sound the noise, vibration and dust caused by the construction work.

3) TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE OF STABILIZING AGENT


(a) Transportation
Transportation by truck; loading and unloading 40 kg bag by manual and by back hoe for 1 ton jumbo bag.
(b) Storage
Stabilizing agent can be stored in the same way as ordinary portland cement. It must not be placed
directly on the ground, but on pallets or square timbers. If it looks like rain, packed of stabilizing agent should
be covered with canvas or so on.

4) SPREADING
Stabilizing agent can be spread by man power (for 40 kg bag) or by back hoe (for 1 ton jumbo bag).

5) MIXING
As the accuracy of mixing is the most important factor of effectiveness of the stabilization. Site supervisor
must control the activities of operators for mixing work as carefully as possible. Conceptionally the powder

Page 10
Example Road Design

of stabilizing agent should become unable to be distinguished from original soil after mixing.

6) GRADING
On finishing mixing. grading should be conducted in advance of compaction. because it is difficult to reform
the undulated of strengthened surface after compaction.

7) COMPACTION
It is possible that delay of compaction work causes less strength than required, so it should be done within
3 hours after mixing. In other word. site work should be scheduled to be completed by compaction every day.

8) CURING
During the construction work the surface should be kept from drying. In case of constructing pavement such
as surface course or upper base course overlying the stabilized layer, it should be made as earliest as possible.

9) CONTROL TEST
Control test is used to confirm that strength reaches the target after the due curing age.

therefore :

so the original ground must be improved.

Z': depth dispersed
therefore :
q'= 58.9 [1-1/{1+(0.18/0.3)2}3/2]
= 21.8 t/m2

Allowable bearing capacity at surface of improved layer qa' is as follows :

Where :

(contact pressure below pavement)

From the above stability condition, required UCS after improvement is as follows :
qu > 9.49 t/m2 = 0.95 kg/cm2 ==> CBR= 20%

3.2.4. DETERMINATION OF MIXING RATE AT CONSTRUCTION SITE

Required strength at site : CBR > 20%

Required strength at laboratory :


Required strength at site

= 15% / 0.5 = 30%

Based on the result of CBR test at laboratory and from "Chart Relationship Mixing Rate vs CBR" , required
Agent & Mixing Rate is :

The required thickness is calculated by Boussinesq's equation on assumtion that the tyre load is dispersed up

= 58.9 [1-1/{1+(0.18/Z")2}3/2]
< qa = 6.20 t/m2 (Allowable bearing capacity of original ground)

therefore, required thickness Z" is as follows :

Z" > 0.65 m = 65 cm


Since the thickness of pavement is 30 cm, required thickness of soil stabilization is :
Z = 65 cm - 30 cm = 35 cm ->50 cm.
