Abstract

As part of the government's infrastructure acceleration initiative, toll road construction has become a key focus to enhance regional development and connectivity. However, such projects, particularly those involving the installation of precast concrete girders, carry significant risks of workplace accidents. Between 2017 and 2021, six accidents related to girder erection occurred during toll road construction projects. This study aims to develop work safety procedures for the installation of Type I precast concrete girders in the Bakauheni–Sidomulyo toll road project. The proposed safety procedures, presented as a flow chart, are based on national and international safety standards, providing a clear and sequential overview of the process to ensure better understanding and risk mitigation. The study uses the Interactive Analysis Model for data analysis, encompassing Data Collection, Data Reduction, Data Presentation, and Conclusion Drawing, where data collection and analysis are conducted in an iterative and simultaneous manner. The results, validated by site engineers and safety officers both within and outside the project, identified 62 potential risks stemming from unsafe conditions and provided 85 safety recommendations. These findings offer practical guidance for contractors to minimize the risk of accidents during the PCI girder erection process.

Abstract

This study explores the potential use of raw rice husks as a partial substitute for sand in the production of paver blocks, addressing the increasing demand for concrete and the overuse of natural resources like aggregates. Rice husks, an abundant waste material in Indonesia, were incorporated into paver blocks made from Portland cement, sand, and raw rice husks. The initial mix ratio was 1 part cement to 8 parts sand, with subsequent mixes gradually replacing sand with rice husks in proportions ranging from 0.5 to 2 parts. The paver blocks were mixed, molded, and compacted, and their properties were tested for compressive strength, water absorption, skid resistance, and abrasion resistance. Five different mix variations were tested, and the production costs were analyzed. The findings revealed that increasing the rice husk content reduced compressive strength but improved water absorption, skid resistance, and abrasion resistance. Additionally, higher rice husk content resulted in lower production costs. The optimal mix, consisting of 1 part cement, 7.5 parts sand, and 0.5 parts rice husks, met all Indonesian standards and demonstrated the best performance. Further research is recommended to assess freeze-thaw resistance and enhance the cost-effectiveness and quality of paver production.
