Abstract

The structure of the steel pile foundation for the Suramadu Bridge crossroad is located in a corrosive marine area. Air humidity, rainwater, mud, or friction with other objects that cause the protective layer to peel off. Corrosion monitoring is carried out to determine the corrosion rate as one of the steps to prevent corrosion. This study aims to evaluate and monitor the bridge's structure Suramadu Causeway. The evaluation carried out includes observing the damage caused by corrosion. So that it will be known the cause of corrosion and the handling of corrosion protection in the building under the bridge, this study used primary and secondary data collection methods and visual observation of damage from routine inspections carried out. The observations show that the condition of the piles is filled with marine life in the tidal area, while for areas that have never been submerged the condition is quite good. The value of the condition of the structural elements at level 3 - 5, which requires protection on steel pillars that have suffered a lot of damage—handling that needs to be done in the Atmospheric zone and Splash zone / Tidal zone is recommended Recoating, Wrapping, HDPE Jacketing, Epoxy Grouting. In the Submerged zone and the Embedded zone, it is recommended that the Cathodic Protection be replaced (120 kg for 600 mm). So from the results of the research that has been done, it can be used as a study for the maintenance of the Suramadu bridge in preventing corrosion.

Abstract

Limited cycling facilities are one of the problems that often occur in urban areas in Indonesia, especially Bintaro Jaya, an area that cyclists often traverse during the COVID-19 period as it is today. The lack of service level of bicycle facilities on Jl. Boulevard Bintaro Jaya often causes bicycle users to feel less safe and comfortable during cycling. This study was conducted to know the service of bicycle facilities in Bintaro, especially on jl. Boulevard Bintaro Jaya. The most affecting factor of the service level of bicycle facilities in Bintaro is the high volume of traffic. One of the first steps to knowing the level of service of bicycle facilities is to analyze using the bicycle level of service (BLOS) method. In addition, a questionnaire will be conducted to determine the perception of bicycle facility users in Bintaro. Observations on traffic characteristics are carried out on weekdays and weekends, which are then to obtain BLOS data. Analysis was performed that BLOS values above 3.5 which mean the bike is not feasible for cyclists. The results concluded that the bicycle facilities in Bintaro Jaya are still not by the safety and comfort factors according to the BLOS method. To improve the safety and comfort of cyclists, the application of traffic calm such as speed hum is needed to reduce the impact of high traffic volume and high speed, repainting of markings and adding bicycle parking facilities.

Abstract

Tirawan Dam emergency spillway is planned to be able to drain the initial flood discharge when the gate above the main spillway is closed so that there will be sufficient time to open the gate to pass the peak flood discharge through the spillway safely. The emergency spillway elevation is designed to accommodate maximum water as a natural reserve during the dry season. This study aims to analyze the factors that play a role in emergency spillway design in meeting the availability of optimal raw water storage and increasing the safety factor against flooding using a simulation modeling method with the help of the Vensim PLE program. The modeling is made in three stages. The first is the analysis of the system model, the second is the creation of a caustic diagram, and the third stage is the simulation of the model and scenario model. The simulation results of this model scenario obtained an effective emergency spillway elevation of +69.50 m and a width of 20 m. The spillway can pass the Q1000 design flood without the control gate operation with a freeboard of 0.41 m with a raw water reserve of 240,649.69 m3. From the simulation results, it is also known that the operation of the main spillway serves to add a safety factor to the discharge capacity of the flood discharge during an emergency condition and cannot be operated to optimize the reservoir.

Abstract

Most investigations into liquefaction have focused on clean sandy soils, with time, evidence has grown that liquefaction is often associated with silty sand material. Sibalaya Village, which suffered the greatest damage from the Palu-Donggala earthquake, is dominated by silty sand material. Related to this issue, an experimental study is conducted in the laboratory to understand the behavior of excess pore pressure and the strength of the saturated silty sand under dynamic loading. The experimental study uses several sets of testing apparatus such as a shake table, chamber, and CPTu. The shake table provides a dynamic load for the soil sample. The chamber allows the field environment to be duplicated in the laboratory. The CPTu measures excess pore pressure and strength of the soil sample. The test results show that liquefaction can occur in silty sand material. However, the fine-grain particles cannot generate the overall pore water pressure in which the pore water pressure ratio can only reach 93% of the initial effective vertical stress. Liquefaction also generates increased pore water pressure and a decrease in soil strength. The increase of dynamic load will result in a shorter liquefaction starting time, and fine content strongly influences the pore water pressure behavior, especially on the rate of pore water pressure dissipation after liquefaction occurs. Therefore, based on this research, it is known that silty sand material can experience liquefaction and can have a longer liquefaction period due to its lower permeability.

Abstract

Non-destructive testing can be applied to various things, including sandwich panels. Sandwich panels made of EPS are greatly affected by the mixing process. Bad mixing can affect the level of homogeneity and reduce quality. In addition, the improper thickness of layers and cores can result in wall damage. For this reason, carrying out a non-destructive test on the sandwich panel is necessary. This study aims to determine the homogeneity of the material and predict the dimensions of the EPS core and layer. Experimental testing was conducted using Ultrasonic Pulse Velocity (direct method) with 90 points. The test object consisted of six sandwich panel walls with three variants, each with dimensions and layer thickness of 15 mm, 20 mm, and 25 mm, respectively, while the core layer size was 70 mm, 80 mm, and 90 mm, respectively. The test results were analyzed on travel time and wave velocity using a statistical analysis approach including covariance, Kolmogorov-Smirnov, ANOVA, t-test, and Lagrangian. The analysis results show that the mixture's homogeneity can be determined based on the ultrasonic pulse velocity. The proposed Lagrange analysis can reveal the behavior of the propagation speed. Based on the results of the Lagrange approach, the highest speed is obtained at a thickness of 80 with a maximum speed of 2.395 km/s. The results of this study contribute to the non-destructive test procedure, especially in determining homogeneity and the dimensions of the effective thickness of the structural walls (cores and layers) that have been installed in the field quickly, cheaply, accurately, and briefly.

Abstract

Rainfall data are widely used to predict regional rainfall. Limited rainfall data is a problem that has an impact on decreasing accuracy, one of which is in the area of South Sumatra. This can be overcome by using satellites. However, to utilize satellitebased rainfall data, it is necessary to carry out an analysis to determine the accuracy of rainfall data. This research aims to evaluate rainfall data from the GPM satellite and PERSIANN satellite with validation and calibration analysis so that the value of rainfall data from the Satellite is close to the measurement result and can be used to estimate monthly rainfall. In this study, the data used were measured monthly rainfall in the field, GPM, and PERSIANN obtained from 9 South Sumatra districts for 2019 until 2021. The research method was validated using correlation coefficient, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), and Mean Absolute Error (MAE). Calibration is done using a combination method, a solver algorithm in Microsoft Excel, and manually. The estimated monthly rainfall analysis is carried out using the isohyet method with the IDW interpolation method. The research results were obtained based on the validation and calibration of monthly rainfall data showing that data from the GPM showing it is closer to the results of field rainfall measurements than the data obtained from PERSIANN satellite. Based on the results of research on satellite data that has been calibrated, it can be used to estimate monthly rainfall in the South Sumatra Region

Abstract

Prefabricated vertical drain (PVD) combined with preloading is one way to deal with soft soil conditions. The predicted settlement becomes the first information in designing the surcharge, PVD configuration and depth, and the time required to complete the consolidation. Prediction of consolidation settlement that using one-dimensional theory considerably underestimated the field settlement along the construction of the surcharge placement stage. This paper intends to evaluate the completed PVD preloading construction project. Inclinometer monitoring data was evaluated to confirm whether the consolidation existed on preferred clay layers. The parametric study evaluated the root cause of the gap between prediction settlement and monitoring data. The root cause analysis continued with a parametric analysis using back calculations. The back analysis involved various Cc, Cs, and pc' that play a significant role in soil settlement. The results show that the conservative value of those parameters simulated separately could not raise the ultimate settlement into inner upper and lower bond results. However, combining those would lead to more accurate predictions that agree with the ultimate settlement. This parametric analysis result also confirms that overconfidence in picking soil parameters could lead to underestimating field settlement. Furthermore, selecting conservative parameters in consolidation settlement should avoid a big gap between prediction and field ones and put construction safe. It was decisive work to be done for further anticipation during and post-construction.

Abstract

Mortar is used for bonding bricks, filling gaps in masonry, and as a plaster for strengthening and smoothing wall surfaces in finishing works. Poor quality of mortar can cause cracks in the walls which are identified after the building is completed. Assessment of a building is essential to determine its quality. Non-destructive testing is widely chosen because it will not directly affect the physical building condition. However, there still needs to achieve a good fit equation that can be used to estimate mortar quality using non-destructive testing. This research aimed to propose a formula to predict the mortar quality using an ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) test with porosity and compressive strength in the mortar with limestone. Variations in adding the lime powder to the mortar mix are 20%, 30%, 40%, and 55%. It was divided into M, S, N, and O types. The mortar cubes were prepared based on ASTM C-1329 and ASTM C-270. The specimens were then evaluated with UPV, porosity, and compressive strength test using three samples for each test. Equations for the relationship between UPV and porosity and compressive strength can be derived from these tests. The results showed that the value of the ultrasonic pulse speed is directly proportional to the compressive strength of the mortar, which fits the equation y = 0.0542e0.0015x, and is inversely proportional to the porosity, showing the equation y = 108.57e-6E-04x. The results of this study can be used to assess the quality of new construction works and existing buildings.

Abstract

Prediction of bearing capacity and soil type is a requirement for the safety of construction before planning a building construction. Therefore, it is necessary to research the distribution of bearing capacity and conical resistance to determine soil conditions in an area. Based on CPT data, this study mapped cone resistance distribution and soil-bearing capacity distribution in the ITK masterplan area. The analysis was carried out by reviewing the 40 cm pile foundation at 11 m. The analysis was carried out using the Kriging, IDW, and Spline with Barriers methods. The bearing capacity was analyzed using the Trofimankove method. The mapping of the carrying capacity using the three interpolation methods results in a Qall value of around 26,024 – 87,835 tons. The cone resistance mapping results using the three interpolation methods show that the soil consistent in the ITK masterplan area is stiff, very stiff and Hard with a qc value of around 16,0804 – 259,54 kg/cm2. The ITK masterplan area has a type of foundation soil, which is hard. The comparison results obtained from mapping the cone resistance and the carrying capacity of the three interpolation methods used, the value of the range of qc and Qall closest to the sample data used is the IDW method

Abstract

Jatiroto River, located on the border of Lumajang and Jember Regencies, is one of the rivers with a risk of flooding. This is due to changes in land use and high sedimentation. For this reason, flood control efforts are needed to reduce disaster risk. This study aims to conduct flood modeling on the Jatiroto River and propose the most effective flood control. In this paper, the flood modeling uses HEC-RAS 5.0 with Q25y and Q50y obtained from analyzing rainfall data from 9 rainfall stations. The first modeling was carried out to produce a flow hydrograph on the upstream river section. The second modeling is carried out for the downstream river section with lateral flow from the Jatiroto tributaries. The flood modeling results show that the existing cross-sectional capacity of the Jatiroto River cannot accommodate Q25y, so it overflows in several cross-sections, especially the downstream section.By normalizing the river's cross-section and constructing an embankment in the downstream area, the flow simulation results on flood modeling show that the flood discharge at 25 years and 50 years does not overflow in all cross sections. Therefore, the normalization and construction of embankments become the effective flood control option in the Jatiroto River.
