Determination of soil strength, settlement and chemical content of Bukit Ampang landfill

A landfill is a site for disposal of waste materials by burial and is the oldest form of waste treatment. Dumping of municipal solid waste can effect and change the geotechnical properties of soil. Limited availability of land for dumping encourages the uncontrolled dumping of waste, on the outskirt...
