This study is part of the project that develops the permeable preactive barrier to be applied in a landfill. The geotechnical applicability of the permeable preactive barrier that filters the leachate from the landfill was evaluated. Dry specimens were made using a mixture of sand, loess and bentonite. A series of experiments are performed to determine the unconfined compressive strength and permeability of various mixing ratio of bentonite, loess, and sand. The laboratory test indicate that the optimum-mixing ratio that satisfied the regulation of unconfined compressive strength(490kPa) and coefficient of permeability$(10^{-3}\sim10^{-4}cm/s)$ of the landfill was when the ratio of sand and loess was 8:2 with bentonite content of 2%. The permeable preactive barrier is different from an impermeable barrier in that it permits a limited diffusion of the leachate, which will be directly purified biologically and chemically in the landfill.
