Triaxial Compression Behavior of Sandy Soil Polluted with Crude Oil
This study aims to use a series of laboratory tests to analyze the geotechnical behavior of oil-contaminated sandy soil, including compaction and triaxial compression tests. In assessing an engineering problem, shear strength can be seen as a geotechnical property of soil. Therefore, the purpose of using the triaxial test on the polluted soil is to investigate the shear strength of the soil due to the appearance of the crude oil contaminated. Polluted samples were prepared with the addition of 0, 4, 8, 12, and 16 percent of crude oil and tested after 14 days. The series contains clean and contaminated soils that have been compacted at optimum moisture content. Results show that shear strength decreased with an increased percentage of crude oil. The maximum value of cohesion obtained at 8% was 62 kPa.
