Abstract

This study aims to investigate the optimal composition of geopolymer paste based on fly ash and lime to achieve ambient temperature hardening, ideal setting time, and high compressive strength. The primary materials used include Class F fly ash from the Mpanau coal-fired power plant and hydrated lime (calcium hydroxide) at 5% of the fly ash weight. The activators employed were Sodium Silicate (Na2SiO3) and Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH), with Na2O dosage variations of 7.5%, 10%, and 12.5%, and activator modulus (SiO2/Na2O ratio) variations of 0.75, 1.00, and 1.25. The specimens were cylindrical with a diameter of 25 mm and a height of 50 mm, and compressive strength tests were conducted at 3, 7, 14, and 28 days. The results showed that the optimum setting time was achieved at a Na2O dosage of 7.5% with an activator modulus of 0.75 and 1.00, yielding setting times of 88.67 and 60.94 minutes, respectively. The highest compressive strength was recorded at a Na2O dosage of 10% with an activator modulus of 1.25, reaching 29.76 MPa at 28 days. These findings suggest that the composition of the alkaline activator significantly influences the early-age properties and mechanical performance of fly ash–lime-based geopolymer paste

Abstract

Watershed (DAS) of a tributary have caused landslides along the access road to the Besuk Koboan road and bridge construction project in Sumberwuluh Village, Candipuro District, Lumajang Regency. The watershed area examined in this study was located on the slope at STA 58+670, and is analyzed to assess surface runoff entering the main road due to the lack of natural reinforcement from vegetation as a result of land use conditions. Identification results indicate that the landslide was caused by erosion (scouring) at the base and foot of the slope; the riverbanks are composed of porous and easily eroded lava deposits from Mount Semeru, as well as water seepage from the cliff. The proposed landslide mitigation con+cept for the river slope includes: Slope reinforcement using piles, Design of a drainage system to manage surface water runoff, Protection of the slope foot from scouring using gabion structures (gabion lay dams) or riprap, Slope crest arrangement to reduce water infiltration, Box culvert cross-section design that takes into account the landslide condition on the slope. Furthermore, regarding the landslide condition affecting the National Road segment Malang–Lumajang at STA 58+830 to 58+930, which was impacted by inadequate existing drainage infrastructure, it is crucial to reconstruct the drainage system based on the analysis and study that has been conducted
