Abstract

Open-pit mining generates voids backfilled with overburden, forming artificial slopes susceptible to landslides. Improper slope design and external factors such as heavy equipment loads, blasting vibrations, and groundwater may trigger instability. This study examines the stability of a disposal slope adjacent to the blasting zone at PT X Coal Mine in East Kalimantan, Indonesia. The research uses secondary data from PT X. including geotechnical parameters and operational details, Slope stability was evaluated via the Limit Equilibrium Method (Bishop and Morgenstern-Price) and Finite Element Method (FEM). Initial analyses revealed critical safety factors (FoS) of 0.853 (Bishop, Morgenstern-Price) and 0.520 (FEM), indicating high instability under combined dynamic and hydrogeological stresses. A slope redesign was proposed, improving FoS to 3.932 (dry) and 3.523 (wet) via Limit Equilibrium, and 1.570 (dry) and 1.370 (wet) via FEM. These value;s comply with the safety threshold (FoS ≥ 1.1) specified in KEPMEN ESDM No. 1827 K/30/MEM/2018, ensuring operational safety. The study underscores the necessity of integrating geotechnical and operational constraints in slope design to mitigate landslide risks in open-pit mining.

Abstract

Building collapse is one of the leading causes of casualties during an earthquake. It is necessary to assess the resistance of the building in seismic performance in order to reduce and prevent earthquake-related damage and building collapse. With this evaluation, it is possible to predict the probability of building damage in the event of an earthquake. This study evaluates the performance of mosque buildings using the fragility curve to determine the probability level of damage. As one of the nations with the largest number of mosques in the world, Indonesia faces the challenge of overcoming the possibility of earthquake damage to the mosque buildings. In addition, many mosque buildings were built based on mutual cooperation without using detailed technical calculations. Therefore, an evaluation of the mosque structure is essential. This study employs a STERA 3D numerical simulation utilizing earthquake time history data. In this study variation, five types of earthquake time history data are utilized. Additionally, the irregular shape of the building is one of the factors under investigation. By performing a pushover analysis, the output of the capacity curve for calculations using the HAZUS method is obtained, allowing for the generation of a seismic fragility curve. The evaluation results show that different variations of time history data produce different levels of probability of damage.

Abstract

Traffic safety is an important aspect of a sustainable transportation system. The increase in number of vehicles and high mobility make intersections as the points with the highest risk of accidents. The Special Region of Yogyakarta (DIY), as a province with dynamic tourism and economic activities, has a significant accident rate, with Sleman Regency contributing approximately 34.8% of the total 4,730 accident cases in DIY in 2018. This condition emphasizes the need for a comprehensive traffic safety analysis in this region. This study aims to analyze the safety level of intersections on primary arterial roads in Sleman Regency using the Swedish Traffic Conflict Technique (TCT). The approach was conducted by ranking road sections using the Accident Equivalent Number (AEK) and observing traffic conflicts using the TCT method. The results of the study show that all intersections observed have a high-level of conflict with a Time to Accident (TA) value that is close to or exceeds the critical threshold. Speed has been proven to be the main determinant of increased risk and severity of conflict. Therefore, this study emphasizes the need to calibrate the Swedish TCT threshold based on vehicle type so that the analysis results remain contextual to Indonesian traffic conditions. Technical recommendations focus on speed limits and the implementation of traffic engineering interventions.

Abstract

The increasing number of road traffic accidents and the high fatality rate in Indonesia, encourage the Government to develop strategies and preventive measures to reduce accidents in the short, medium and long term, although until now the fatality rate is still high. The purpose of this study is to analyze the influence of regulatory factors, humans, traffic signs, supervision and enforcement, and vehicles with technological variables as intervening factors on road safety in an effort to reduce the level of traffic accidents in Indonesia. The location of the study was conducted in 34 provinces in Indonesia, using quantitative data analysis through questionnaires on 500 respondents, with the SEM method (Smart Pls 4.0). The results of the study explain that regulatory factors, humans, traffic signs, supervision and enforcement, and vehicles with technological variables have a positive and significant influence on traffic safety, which means that an increase in the performance of the independent variables has a positive impact on traffic safety. The recommendations from this study are the priority of traffic safety improvement policies, namely: increasing active and passive safety in vehicles, using safety technology in vehicles, utilizing CCTV and e-ticketing for supervision and enforcement, fulfilling ffective and efficient traffic signs and safety campaigns for road users and improving regulations.

Abstract

PT PGAS Solution, as a certified construction company in Indonesia, applies ISO 21500:2021 as a guideline for managing its project activities, and this study aims to evaluate the level and effectiveness of its implementation while identifying the key obstacles encountered in practice. A quantitative descriptive–explanatory approach was employed using a questionnaire based on the ten core subjects outlined in ISO 21500:2021 Clause 7, which was distributed to 20 project personnel through a saturated sampling method, with data analyzed using descriptive statistics, validity and reliability tests, assumption testing, and multiple linear regression. The results indicate that the overall implementation level falls into the “Fairly Good” category, with an average score of 19.795, and the instrument demonstrates strong reliability, as evidenced by a Cronbach’s Alpha value of 0.938. Furthermore, regression analysis shows that information and documentation management has the most significant positive influence on system implementation, while procurement and lessons learned contribute negatively due to challenges in process optimization and organizational knowledge retention, with an adjusted R² value of 69.7% indicating a moderately strong model fit in explaining the variation in implementation levels. These findings highlight the need for improved procurement systems, stronger institutional learning mechanisms, and enhanced integration of ISO 21500:2021 practices to strengthen project delivery performance within the oil and gas construction sector.

Abstract

The hindcasting method uses past wind data to estimate wave height (Hs) and wave period (Tp). The study aims to compare the wave height and period of the Sverdrup-Munk-Bretschneide (SMB), Finite Water Depth (FWD), and Joint North Sea Wave Project (JONSWAP) hindcasting methods with field measurement results. Wind data is sourced from NASA Prediction of Worldwide Energy Resources (POWER) Data Access Viewer (DAV) v2.4.9 for 2015-2024. The analysis results show that the wave height of the JONSWAP method is greater than the SMB and FWD methods. The wave height and period of the SMB and FWD methods have almost the same values. The difference between the three hindcasting methods is because the parameters used to calculate the wave height and period are different, the SMB method only uses the effective fetch length parameter (Feff), the FWD method uses the effective fetch parameter (Feff) and water depth (d), while the JONSWAP method uses the effective fetch parameter (Feff) and wind speed (UA). The wind speed (UA) parameter in the JONSWAP method has a very significant effect on wave height and period. For coastal structure planning, the JONSWAP method is more recommended, because the resulting wave height can function as a safety factor.

Abstract

The construction sector is one of the key economic sectors that significantly contributes to a country’s growth. The smooth disbursement of advance payments greatly influences financial management, particularly cash flow and construction project performance. Research on the impact of advance payments on cash flow and project performance remains limited. Therefore, this study aims to fill that gap. This research identifies the factors that influence the smooth disbursement of advance payments and examines their impact on cash flow and project performance, based on previous literature. Data were collected through questionnaires using a Likert scale. The study employs a quantitative analysis approach using Partial Least Squares–Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) with the SMART PLS 3 software to evaluate the outer and inner models as well as the overall model fit. The findings indicate that the factors influencing the smooth disbursement of advance payments include the client’s financial strength, clarity of contractual agreements, and the contractor’s reputation. The impact of advance payments on cash flow involves ensuring timely payment for materials, labor, and equipment mobilization. Meanwhile, the impact on project performance includes efficient equipment mobilization, adherence to equipment specifications, and the reduction of cost overruns caused by fluctuations in material prices.

Abstract

The highly expansive characteristics of clay shale lead to several issues in construction. This study aimed to evaluate the use of xanthan gum (XG), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and their combination to improve the shear strength parameters of clay shale. A series of experiments were performed, starting from physical property tests, including specific gravity, gradation, and Atterberg limits, and mechanical property tests using the direct shear test to evaluate the effect of the addition of Xanthan Gum and polyvinyl alcohol or their combination on the soil parameters. Xanthan gum and polyvinyl alcohol were mixed with clay shale using dry and wet mixing methods. The study results show that adding xanthan gum and polyvinyl alcohol, and their combination, improves the plasticity index by 156%, 98%, and 6%, respectively. The modification of XG using polyvinyl alcohol was also reported to increase the cohesion and internal friction angle by 200% and 103%, respectively. This study concludes that the addition of polyvinyl alcohol as a modification of xanthan gum is an effective way to improve the soil strength of clay shale.
