Abstract

The foundation is the lower structural element that functions to lay the building and transmits the load of the superstructure to the subgrade base and is able to ensure its stability both against the weight of the building itself and other loads. In the Palembang city area, it is found that the soil surface in the form of swamps has a low carrying capacity value which requires special handling so that the carrying capacity of the soil increases, one of which is to treat the soil by planting PVC pipe tubes closed at the ends with a grid pattern. The purpose of this study was to determine how the value of the bearing capacity of the soil using PVC pipe tubes. The study was conducting field experiments by comparing the results of the soil bearing capacity between foundations without PVC pipes and with PVC pipes in 3 treatments, namely 9, 16, and 25 pipes. From the results obtained, there is an increase in the bearing capacity of the soil after being treated with the use of pipes. The highest soil bearing capacity value is seen in the use of 25 pipes. It can be concluded that the use of PVC pipe can increase the bearing capacity of the soil. it can be concluded that the use of PVC pipes can increase the bearing capacity of the soil based on CBR value, especially in shallow foundations. The more pipes used, the higher the bearing capacity of the soil. it can be concluded that the use of PVC pipes can increase the bearing capacity of the soil based on CBR value, especially in shallow foundations. The more pipes used, the higher the bearing capacity of the soil. it can be concluded that the use of PVC pipes can increase the bearing capacity of the soil based on CBR value, especially in shallow foundations. The more pipes used, the higher the bearing capacity of the soil.
