Abstract

The objectives of this research were to carry out a laboratory testings on disturbed soil sample of Perai alluvial soil. Laboratory studies were conducted to determine the index properties and the shear strength of the alluvial soil. The laboratory studies were divided into two parts which were laboratory strength test and classification tests. The study involved collection of samples from underneath the Penang Bridge. Based on the test, the alluvia] marine soil has been classified as either SILT of high plasticity or CLAY of high plasticity. The shear strength parameters of the soil which is cohesion and friction angle were 6.2 kPa and 20° respectively.
