Abstract

Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) are cylindrical nanostructures with exceptional mechanical strength, high electrical conductivity, and excellent heat transfer capabilities, making them a promising additive in asphalt mixtures. This study investigates the effect of CNTs on the Marshall parameters of Asphalt Concrete-Wearing Course (AC-WC) mixtures using 60/70 penetration asphalt. CNTs were added to asphalt at 60°C, followed by coarse and fine aggregates preheated to 150°C. Marshall parameter tests were conducted on the samples, and the results showed a significant increase in stability compared to conventional asphalt. Asphalt stability increased by 9%, with the highest value obtained at a CNT concentration of 0.015%, reaching 2177.83 kg. The optimal stability was achieved at a CNT concentration of 0.015%. This study demonstrates that CNTs can be effectively utilized to enhance the performance of AC-WC asphalt mixtures. The flow values decreased as the CNT content increased because CNTs make the asphalt mixture stiffer, improving temperature resistance.

Abstract

The rising global temperatures due to climate change are accelerating concrete deterioration by shortening its service life, which subsequently increases maintenance costs. Therefore, the objective of this investigation is to analyze the graphene oxide (GO) effect on the mechanical characteristics and microstructural properties of fly ash (FA) concrete exposed to ambient temperatures. Concrete specimens were created by employing GO from 0.01% to 0.05% by weight of cement and cured using two distinct methods. These include standard curing in immersed water and for 7 days followed by ambient exposure. The mechanical test showed that GO significantly enhanced compressive strength, with 0.04% GO observed to have increased strength by approximately 16% at 28 days. However, exposure to ambient conditions led to decreased compressive and flexural strength and increased mass loss. The microstructural analysis also showed that ambient-exposed concrete exhibited higher porosity and incomplete hydration. The results showed that the addition of GO enhanced durability by refining the microstructure, reducing porosity, and enhancing thermal stability. Thermal analysis also confirmed that GO minimized moisture loss and improved thermal resistance. Furthermore, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) validated the improvement in bonding for the GO-FA concrete. These results showed that GO could mitigate the adverse effects of environmental exposure, leading to its identification as an advantageous additive to increase the long-term durability and concrete performance in different temperature conditions.

Abstract

Abstrak Pelayanan kebutuhan air di wilayah IKK Bukit Oregon kurang memadai diduga jaringan pipa menjadi pokok masalahnya sehingga berdasar hal tersebut maka diperlukan evaluasi jaringan perpipaan air minum dan design dibuat dengan menggunakan software Aplikasi Watercad V8-I dan ingin diketahui seberapa besar kebutuhan debit pada proyeksi tahun 2030 termasuk kapasitas pompa dan jenis pipa transmisinya. Hasil pengamatan secara langsung di wilayah studi pada pelayanan terdapat permasalahan yang terjadi pada pipa transmisi, yaitu pipa dari intake (sumber air baku utama) menuju ke Instalasi Pengolahan Air (IPA) yang akan di distribusikan ke masyarakat. Permasalahan yang terjadi adalah pipa induk tersebut mengalami kebocoran akibat umur teknis pipa yang sudah tua. Meningkatnya jumlah penduduk sama halnya semakin meningkatnya pemenuhan akan kebutuhan air bersih. Permasalahan tersebut harus ditanggulangi dengan pergantian pipa dengan jenis dan diameter yang tepat serta kapasitas pompa yang sesuai hasil menggunakan software Watercad V8-i. Dari hasil perhitungan analisa pertumbuhan penduduk pada tahun 2030 dengan jumlah pelanggan 96.770 jiwa kebutuhan air mencapai 102,476 liter/detik. Sistem transmisi menggunakan sistem pompa dengan kapasitas terpasang 90 liter/detik. Jenis pipa yang dipakai untuk pipa transmisi menggunakan pipa HDPE dengan diameter 350 mm. Kata kunci: evaluasi, air bersih, perpipaan, pompa, Watercad V8-i   Abstract The service for water needs in the IKK Bukit Oregon area is inadequate, it is suspected that the pipeline network is the main problem, so based on this, it is necessary to evaluate the drinking water piping network and the design is made using the Watercad V8-I application software and wants to know how much the demand for discharge in the 2030 projection includes pump capacity and type of transmission pipe. The results of direct observations in the study area on the service there are problems that occur in the transmission pipe, namely the pipe from the intake (main raw water source) to the Water Treatment Plant (IPA) which will be distributed to the community. The problem that occurs is that the main pipe has a leak due to the technical age of the pipe which is old. The increasing population is the same as the increasing fulfillment of clean water needs. These problems must be overcome by changing the pipe with the right type and diameter and the pump capacity according to the results using the Watercad V8-i software. From the calculation results of population growth analysis in 2030 with the number of customers 96,770 people, water needs reach 102,476 liters/second. The transmission system uses a pump system with an installed capacity of 90 liters/second. The type of pipe used for the transmission pipe uses HDPE pipe with a diameter of 350 mm. Keywords: evaluation, clean water, piping, pump, Watercad V8-i

Abstrak Lereng merupakan permukaan tanah yang memiliki beda tinggi. Ketidakstabilan lereng menyebabkan bencana keruntuhan yang menyebabkan kerugian secara materil maupun korban jiwa. Pada lereng Sungai Aceh Tamiang, Kampung Rantau Pakam, Provinsi Aceh sering terjadi bencana keruntuhan sehingga perlu dilakukan penelitian terhadap stabilitas lereng. Penelitian bertujuan mengetahui nilai faktor keamanan lereng dan meningkatkan nilai stabilitas lereng sungai dengan perkuatan lereng. Metode analisis menggunakan metode Bishop untuk perhitungan secara manual dan Metode Elemen Hingga menggunakan bantuan software Plaxis 2D. Jenis perkuatan stabilitas lereng menggunakan soil nailing dan dinding MSE. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan nilai faktor keamanan lereng eksisting tidak memenuhi persyaratan minimum kestabilan lereng maka perlu perkuatan lereng. Hasil perhitungan faktor keamanan stabilitas lereng dengan perkuatan soil nailing sebesar 1,335 lebih kecil dari persyaratan sebesar 1,5. Faktor keamanan stabilitas lereng dengan perkuatan dinding MSE sebesar 1,457 lebih besar dari persyaratan sebesar 1,3. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa metode MSE lebih sesuai digunakan untuk perkuatan lereng. Kata kunci: Dinding MSE, faktor keamanan, metode Bishop, Plaxis 2D, soil nailing  AbstractThe slope is a ground surface that has a height difference. The instability of the slope can cause catastrophic collapse which causes material loss and loss of life. On the slopes of the Aceh Tamiang River, Rantau Pakam Village, Aceh Province, collapse of the slopes often occurs, so it is necessary to conduct research on slope stability. The research aims to determine the value of the slope safety factor and increase the stability value of river slopes by strengthening the slopes. The analytical method uses the Bishop method for manual calculations and the Finite Element Method uses Plaxis 2D software. The type of slope stability strengthening using soil nailing and MSE walls. The results showed that the value of the factor of safety for the existing slope did not meet the minimum requirements for slope stability, so it needed to strengthen the slope. Based on the analysis, the safety factor for slope stability with soil nailing strengthening is 1.335, which is less than the requirement of 1.5. The safety factor for slope stability with the MSE wall strengthening is 1.457, which is greater than the requirement of 1.3 for such method strengthening. The results of the analysis show that the MSE method is more suitable for slope strengthening at the location. Keywords: MSE wall, safety factor, bishop method, Plaxis 2D, soil nailing
