Discomfort of road users such as bumpy road need to be addressed with the use of appropriate lightweight and stiff backfill materials. Alternative lightweight fills used in current highway construction is critically reviewed in this research prior to the conceptual development of a stiff lightweight mat (Geocomposite Cellular Mat, GCM). The GCM concept is somewhat similar to the EPS concept by virtue of the mat form. However, the EPS is lighter than GCM, but the GCM is much stronger, stiffer, more porous and permeable. The performance of the GCM on hemic peat ground at the test site in Parit Nipah, Johor was compared with that from conventional backfill (sand fill). The typical geotechnical properties of Parit Nipah peat were high in organic content (85.3 %), high in moisture content (> 600 %) and low in undrained shear strength (< 15 kPa). The consolidation characteristics of Parit Nipah peat was obtained from both laboratory and field tests using Terzaghi’s, and hyperbolic methods. The settlement predicted by hyperbolic method gave a better agreement with the field data. The field tests were environmentally monitored and innovative field instrumentation for the settlement monitoring was specially designed for this research. The research effectively demonstrates potential for the use of GCM to mitigate settlement of highway embankment built on peat ground. The field observation showed that the maximum settlements were reduced up to 84 % with the adoption of GCM fills. Furthermore, 70 % differential settlement was reduced with GCM fill compared with sand fill. GCM fills not only reduces excessive settlement but also reduces the differential settlement. However, they also effectively accelerate the consolidation settlement within the sub-grade through the ease of dissipation of the excess pore water pressure through the open-porous cellular structure of the GCM fills. vi ABSTRAK Pembinaan infrastruktur di atas tanah lembut contohnya tanah gambut kini mendapat permintaan yang tinggi. Namun yang demikian, pembinaan jalan raya diatas tanah gambut memberi ketidakselesaan kepada pengguna jalan raya disebabkan oleh jalan yang beralun dan ini perlu ditangani dengan pendekatan yang sesuai seperti penggunaan bahan tambak yang ringan dan kuat. Melalui penyelidikan ini, kajian secara kritikal terhadap bahan alternatif tambak ringan yang digunakan dalam pembinaan jalan raya masa kini telah dilakukan sebelum pembangunan konseptual bahan tambak berbentuk tikar yang ringan dan keras (Geocomposite Celular Mat, GCM). GCM mempunyai konsep yang hampir sama dengan EPS iaitu berbentuk tikar. Namun yang demikian, EPS adalah lebih ringan berbanding GCM, tetapi GCM lebih kuat, keras, poros dan telap jika dibandingkan dengan EPS. Hasil ujikaji terhadap prestasi GCM ke atas tanah gambut hemik yang dilakukan di tapak ujikaji terletak di Parit Nipah, Johor dibandingkan dengan tambak konvensional berbentuk pasir. Ciri geoteknikal tanah gambut di Parit Nipah yang tipikal mempunyai kandungan organik yang tinggi (85.3%), kandungan kelembapan yang tinggi (> 600 %) dan kekuatan ricih yang rendah (< 15 kPa). Ciri-ciri pengukuhan tanah gambut ini diperoleh melalui ujikaji makmal dan lapangan dengan menggunakan kaedah Terzaghi dan hiperbolik. Kaedah hiperbolik menunjukkan ramalan pemendapan lapangan yang lebih baik berbanding dengan kaedah lain. Pemantauan terhadap persekitaran kawasan lapangan telah dilakukan dan penggunaan peralatan tapak telah direka khas dalam kajian ini untuk memantau pemendapan. Hasil kajian menunjukkan potensi penggunaan GCM bagi mengurangkan pemendapan penambakan jalan raya yang dibina diatas tanah gambut adalah sangat efektif. Kajian lapangan menunjukkan penggurangan sehingga 84% terhadap pemendapan maksimum berjaya dicapai dengan menggunakan GCM. Selain itu, perbezaan pemendapan juga berjaya dikurangkan sebanyak 70 % dengan penggunaan GCM. GCM bukan saja dapat mengurangkan jumlah dan perbezaan pemendapan, ianya juga mampu mempercepatkan pemendapan subgred secara efektif dengan memudahkan penyerapan lebihan tekanan air liang melalui struktur sel liang terbuka GCM. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS TITLE i DECLARATION ii DEDICATION iii ACKNOWLEDGMENT iv ABSTRACT v TABLE OF CONTENTS vii LIST OF TABLES xv LIST OF FIGURES xix LIST OF SYMBOLS AND ABBREVIATIONS xxviii LIST OF APPENDICES xxxiv CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION 1.1 Preamble 1 1.2 Problem identification 3 1.3 Research hypothesis 5 1.4 Research aim and objectives 5 1.4.1 Aim of the research 5 1.4.2 Objectives of the research 5 1.5 Scope (boundary) of research 6 1.6 Research programme 8 1.7 Thesis outline 9 CHAPTER 2 – LITERATURE REVIEW 2.1 Introduction 10 2.2 Settlement induced failure of highways and infrastructures on soft 10 soil viii 2.3 Problematic soils in Malaysia 13 2.3.1 Definition of peat soil 13 2.3.2 Peatland in Malaysia 15 2.3.2.1 Peat morphology 17 2.3.2.2 Structural arrangement of peat soil 18 2.3.2.3 Classification of peat soil (engineering) 19 2.3.2.4 Characteristic properties of peat soils 21 2.3.2.5 Critical review of characteristic properties of peat 24 soils at Parit Nipah, Johor 2.4 Ground improvement methods 25 2.4.1 Alternative construction technologies using lightweight fill 29 materials particularly for road construction 2.4.1.1 Expanded polystyrene (EPS) geofoam 30 2.4.1.2 Shredded tires and tire bale fills 32 2.4.1.3 Foamed concrete (blocks/panel) 34 2.4.1.4 Bamboo grid frame 35 2.4.1.5 Other lightweight fill materials (mixed or added to 36 the soils) 2.4.2 Critical design properties of feasible lightweight fill blocks 39 used in embankment construction 2.4.3 Review of past literature on road embankments constructed 42 using lightweight fill material 2.5 Plastic (synthetic and semi-synthetic polymer) as an alternative 48 lightweight construction materials 2.5.1 Why recycled plastics? 50 2.5.2 Engineering and thermal properties of plastic 53 2.5.2.1 Properties of virgin plastic 53 2.5.2.2 Critical review of mechanical properties of 55 recycled plastic blends 2.5.3 Use of plastic in engineering field 58 2.6 Contributory advantages from cellular structure 61 2.6.1 Characteristic properties of cellular solids 65 2.6.2 Engineering applications of cellular structure 67 ix 2.7 Field monitoring instrumentation 70 2.7.1 Survey method for measuring vertical movement 72 2.7.2 Comparisons of field instrumentation 78 2.7.3 Appropriate field instrumentation for embankment over soft 79 ground 2.8 Consolidation settlement of soils 83 2.8.1 Consolidation model for peat soils 84 2.8.1.1 Cα/Cc concept (1977) 84 2.8.1.2 Rheological model for peat soil (1961) 86 2.8.1.3 Summary of rheological model 90 2.8.2 Consolidation behaviour of peat 90 2.8.3 One-dimensional consolidation test 94 2.8.4 Settlement prediction based on one-dimensional 96 consolidation test 2.8.5 Applicability of Terzaghi’s theory to predict settlement over 102 peat 2.8.6 Comparative overview of classical One-dimensional (1D), 104 three-dimensional (3D) and large strain consolidation theories 2.8.7 Settlement prediction during construction period 110 2.9 Alternative methods of settlement analysis 112 2.9.1 Hyperbolic method 112 2.9.2 Asaoka method 116 2.10 Guideline and standard for road embankment construction

  • Students' Perceptions Concerning the Site Visit in History, ICSS, Malaysia
    Uluslar arası Sosyal Bilimler Eğitimi Dergisi - USBED• International Social Science Education of Journal – ISSEJ Yaz/Summer Volume I Issue I Article II Students’ Perceptions Concerning the Site Visit in History, ICSS, Malaysia MohamadJohdiSalleh * Abstract The study is essentially an exploratory survey, which sets out to obtain some concrete information on the students’ perception concerning the site visit in the teaching and learning of history, Integrated Curriculum for Secondary Schools (ICSS) Malaysia. The researcher employed the ‘convenience sampling’ method and selected two states in Malaysia, namely Perak and Terengganu, involving four hundred students from each state. The data was collected through distribution of questionnaire and interviews. The findings of the questionnaire reveal that the score in Perakwas higher than Terengganu,boys score higher than girls, Form Four score the highest among the level of education, and, interestingly, both science and religious have the same number of responses in the type of schools categories. As an addition, it was discovered from interviews that site visits allow for student-centred learning, giving students the chance to improve their own skills in using concrete evidence and developing essential historical skills. At the same time it enables students to develop truly cross-curricular skills of various subjects including mathematics and science. It is hoped that the study would raise concern, awareness and benefit to all involved in the teaching and learning of history in the ICSS Malaysia, and school students across the world in this era of globalization. Keywords: students’ perceptions – site visits - advantages Introduction The history fieldwork was introduced into the Integrated Curriculum for Secondary Schools (ICSS) Malaysia in 1988 and reviewed in 2000 and 2008.

  • Data Standardization Analysis to Form Geo-Demographics Classification Profiles Using K-Means Algorithms
    GEOGRAFIA OnlineTM Malaysian Journal of Society and Space 12 issue 6 (34 - 42) 34 Themed issue on current social, economic, cultural and spatial dynamics of Malaysia’s transformation © 2016, ISSN 2180-2491 Improving the tool for analyzing Malaysia’s demographic change: Data standardization analysis to form geo-demographics classification profiles using k-means algorithms Kamarul Ismail1, Nasir Nayan1, Siti Naielah Ibrahim1 1Jabatan Geografi dan Alam Sekitar, Fakulti Sains Kemanusiaan, Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris, 35900 Tanjong Malim, Perak Correspondence: Kamarul Ismail (email: [email protected]) Abstract Clustering is one of the important methods in data exploratory in this era because it is widely applied in data mining.Clustering of data is necessary to produce geo-demographic classification where k-means algorithm is used as cluster algorithm. K-means is one of the methods commonly used in cluster algorithm because it is more significant. However, before any data are executed on cluster analysis it is necessary to conduct some analysis to ensure the variable used in the cluster analysis is appropriate and does not have a recurring information. One analysis that needs to be done is the standardization data analysis. This study observed which standardization method was more effective in the analysis process of Malaysia’s population and housing census data for the Perak state. The rationale was that standardized data would simplify the execution of k-means algorithm. The standardized methods chosen to test the data accuracy were the z-score and range standardization method. From the analysis conducted it was found that the range standardization method was more suitable to be used for the data examined.

  • The Spatial Configuration of Private Investments by Economic Actors in Perak
    The spatial configuration of private investments by economic actors in Perak A consideration of centricity of the regional urban system of Southern Perak (Peninsular Malaysia) Luka Raaijmakers (6314554) Under supervision of dr Leo van Grunsven Faculty of Geosciences Department of Human Geography and Planning Master’s degree in Economic Geography Specialisation in Regional Development & Policy November 2019 Page | 2 Acknowledgements This thesis is part of the joint research project on regional urban dynamics in Southern Perak (Peninsular Malaysia). The project is a collaboration between Utrecht University (The Netherlands) and Think City Sdn Bhd (Malaysia), under supervision of dr Leo van Grunsven and Matt Benson. I would like to thank dr Leo van Grunsven for his advice related to scientific subjects and his efforts to make us feel at home in Malaysia. Also, I would like to thank Matt Benson and Joel Goh and the other colleagues of Think City for the assistance in conducting research in – for me – uncharted territory. I would like to address other words of thanks to the Malaysian Investment Development Authority, Institut Darul Ridzuan and all other political bodies that have proven to be valuable as well as economic actors for their honesty and openness with regard to doing business in Malaysia/Perak. Finally, the fun part of writing a master’s thesis in Malaysia, apart from obviously living abroad on a vibrant island, was the part of doing research. This required a little creativity, some resilience and even more perseverance. This could not have been done without the other student members of the research team that took part in the collective effort of unravelling the urban system of Perak by using the knowledge we have gained in our years as academics.
