ANALISIS KELAYAKAN KUALITAS BATAKO HASIL PRODUKSI INDUSTRI KECIL DI KOTA PAYAKUMBUH DAN KABUPATEN LIMA PULUH KOTA

Sari

Research on the Feasibility Analysis Quality brick Production of Small Industries in
Payakumbuh and Kabupaten Lima Puluh Kota has been conducted to determine the
feasibility of quality adobe result of small industries in Payakumbuh and Kabupaten Lima
Puluh Kota and to know how to optimize the mix of brick that worthy quality standards
appropriate with the requirements PUBI-1982. Tests done after the adobe brick was only
28 days. Equipment for the testing of compressive strength of concrete blocks are
compression machine. Test Results Compressive Strength average compressive strength
values obtained brick on brick in Civil Engineering Laboratory STT Payakumbuh has
increased and decreased. The compressive strength was lowest for the BA sample (a
mixture of 1: 6) with an average compressive strength of 0.7 MPa while the compressive
strength is highest in BC samples (a mixture of 1: 5) with an average compressive strength
of 3.1 MPa. Of 5 small brick industry in Payakumbuh and Kabupaten Lima Puluh Kota, 3
of which can not be said to be feasible because it does not meet the standards PUBI-1982.
Small industries which include this category are from Tanjung Pati (BA), Tiakar (BD) and
the Village of Sand.
