Abstract

Jatinangor is an area composed of material from volcanic activity, one of the results of volcanic activity is andesite rock. The purpose of this research is to provide information related to the physical and mechanical properties of the lava rock in the Gunung Geulis area so that if there is construction work or rock utilization there is already information about the characteristics of the rock. The method used in this study is a laboratory experiment by conducting tests on 9 selected rock samples. The results of laboratory testing can be concluded the rock in the research area is andesite rocks and have rock physical properties namely Natural density (1.5 – 1.6 gr/cc), Saturated density (1.6 – 1.7 g/cc), Dry Density (1.5 – 1.6 g/cc), Bulk Saturated Surface Dry (SSD) Specific Gravity (2.3 – 2.4), Apparent Specific Gravity (2.5 – 2.7), absorption (3 – 5.9%), Natural moisture content (0.6 – 2.3%),  Porosity (4.9 – 9.4%) and the mechanical properties of the rock, namely the compressive strength of the rock, ranged from 33,099 – 85,096 Mpa. Based on the results and analysis, the mechanical properties of rocks, namely the compressive strength of rocks in the study area, have varying values and varied physical properties of rocks. Physical and mechanical properties of rocks that are correlated based on linear correlation are the compressive strength of rocks with absorption, Natural moisture content, and porosity. These parameters will show the relationship that can affect the compressive strength of rocks. So that when using rock in construction work, mining, the use of rock needs to pay attention to the compressive strength or mechanical properties and physical properties of the rock.

Abstract

Rainfall intensity can affect water infiltration to the ground. The increase in groundwater level will increase pore pressure (μ) that minimizes shear resistance of the slope mass, especially on the ground material (soil). The increase in surface water levels also increases surface water discharge and increases erosion below the surface (piping or subaqueous erosion). As a result of more subtle friction (silt) from the time that washed away soil, the soil will decrease future resilience. This happened in Subdistrict Cimanggung, Sumedang, West Java. This area is composed of weathered soil of volcanic products such as tuff, volcanic breccia, and andesitic lava. The parameters of this research contain basic properties and mechanical properties of soil, slope profile in MH soil, and water surface level. This research aims to determine basic properties and mechanical properties of soil, as well as the effects of groundwater level, that can give recommendations for groundwater level to get a stable condition of the slope. The basic properties and mechanical properties of soil are known based on laboratory tests from a disturbed and undisturbed soil sample were obtained by surface sampling and geotechnical hand drilling. Slopes were analyzed by the Bishop method using Rockscience Slide software. The result is there’s an increase in the value of safety factors when the level of surface water level decrease. From the value of the safety factor that varies between slope sections, that slope can be stable if water surface level -7,5 meters beneath the surface.
