It is known already that the soft Bangkok clay. A mild to very soft clay layer. Often cause problems in construction. Currently, many researchers have improved the clay with cement. However, the price of cement. We bring the waste such as bagasse ash utilization and reduce costs. This research aims to study the possibility of improved soft Bangkok clay. By using bagasse ash instead of cement.
The study focuses on the uniaxial compressive strength test by method Unconfined Compression test. Along with the study of micro structure of clay mixed with cement and bagasse ash as the image of the internal structure clod by SEM (Scanning Electron microscopy) to see the changes of the structure of clay after improving properties. And Study on chemical products by XRD (X - ray Diffraction), which the results will be used to describe the relationship of uniaxial compressive strength increases, and the change in the micro level.
