Prediction of external stability for segmental retaining walls reinforced with geogrid and backfilled with residual soil was carried out using statistical methods and artificial neural networks (ANN). Prediction was based on data obtained from 234 segmental retaining wall designs using procedures developed by the National Concrete Masonry Association (NCMA). The study showed that prediction made using ANN was generally more accurate to the target compared with statistical methods using mathematical models of linear, pure quadratic, full quadratic and interactions.

On the construction of green open space Jl. Kinibalu Banjarbaru There is a 6 meters tall slope beneath which the river is lined up during the rainy season and makes the slope exposed by water plus the absence of load or traffic on it make the pore figures on the land is large. Therefore, for protection reason, there is a soil alignment in the construction of soil retaining walls. The planned ground retaining wall type is cantilever and gabion. The stability analysis of the ground retaining walls is done manually and with the help of the Geoslope/W 2018 software. The value of the stability of the style against the bolsters, sliding, and carrying capacity of the soil using manual calculations for cantilever type and Netlon qualifies SNI 8460:2017. And for the overall stability calculation using Geoslope/W 2018 software obtained safety factor (SF) > 1.5. From the analysis, the design of planning can be used because it is safe against the dangers of avalanche.

The Aceh Tengah / Gayo Lues-Blangkejeren road segment (N.022) Km 438 + 775 is one of the Central Cross National Roads in the Province of Aceh, which often experiences landslides due to being in hilly areas. Landslides that occur in these locations are caused by scouring of road runoff, lack of optimal drainage and the absence of outlets for drainage and soil layers under asphalt pavement consisting of loose material. Therefore, a slope reinforcement study with Counterfort type retaining wall is needed. This study aims to analyze slope stability by obtaining safety factor numbers and identifying slope failure patterns. Analysis was carried out to obtain safety factors and slope failure patterns by using 2D Plaxis and slice methods. The calculation of safety factors for Counterfort type retaining walls is done manually. The input soil parameters used are dry volume weight (gd), wet volume weight (gw), permeability (k), modulus young (Eref), paisson's ratio (υ), shear angle (f), cohesion (c) . The results of slope stability analysis on the existing conditions using the Plaxis program and the slice method with radius (r) 65.06 meters found that safety factors were 1.038 and 1.079 with unsafe slope conditions (FK <1.25). The results of the analysis after reinforced counterfort and minipile type retaining wall with a length of 12 meters found 1,268 safety factor numbers with unsafe slope conditions (FK <1,5). Thus, additional reinforcement is needed by using anchor on the counterfort. The results of slope stability analysis after reinforced counterfort, minipile and anchor type retaining walls with a length of 20 meters and a slope of 30 ° were obtained with a safety factor number of 1.513 with safe slope conditions (SF> 1.5).ABSTRAKRuas jalan batas Aceh Tengah/Gayo Lues-Blangkejeren (N.022) Km 438+775 merupakan salah satu ruas jalan Nasional Lintas Tengah Provinsi Aceh, yang sering mengalami terjadi tanah longsor karena berada di daerah perbukitan. Longsoran yang terjadi pada lokasi tersebut disebabkan oleh gerusan air limpasan permukaan jalan, kurang optimalnya drainase dan tidak adanya outlet untuk pembuangan air serta lapisan tanah di bawah perkerasan aspal terdiri dari material lepas. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan kajian perkuatan lereng dengan dinding penahan tanah tipe Counterfort. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis stabilitas lereng dengan mendapatkan angka faktor keamanan dan mengidentifikasi pola keruntuhan lereng. Analisis dilakukan untuk mendapatkan faktor keamanan dan pola keruntuhan lereng yaitu dengan menggunakan program Plaxis 2D dan metode irisan. Perhitungan faktor keamanan untuk dinding penahan tanah tipe Counterfort dilakukan secara manual. Adapun parameter  tanah input yang digunakan adalah berat volume kering (gd), berat volume basah (gw), permeabilitas (k), modulus young (Eref), paisson’s rasio (υ), sudut geser (f), kohesi (c). Hasil analisis stabilitas lereng pada kondisi eksisting menggunakan program Plaxis dan metode irisan dengan jari-jari (r) 65,06 meter didapatkan akan faktor keamanan sebesar 1,038 dan 1,079 dengan kondisi lereng tidak aman (FK < 1,25). Hasil analisis setelah diperkuat dinding penahan tanah tipe counterfort dan minipile dengan panjang 12 meter didapatkan angka faktor keamanan 1,268 dengan kondisi lereng tidak aman (FK < 1,5). Dengan demikian, maka diperlukan perkuatan tambahan dengan menggunakan angkur pada counterfort. Hasil analisis stabilitas lereng setelah diperkuat dinding penahan tanah tipe counterfort, minipile dan angkur dengan panjang 20 meter serta sudut kemiringan 30° didapatkan angka faktor keamanan 1,513 dengan kondisi lereng aman (SF > 1,5).Kata kunci : longsoran; counterfort; plaxis 2D; faktor keamanan.

This paper concerns the optimization of sensors locations used to monitor the geosynthetic reinforcement internal forces of a reinforced earth retaining walls. The internal stability analysis of these structures is addressed through the kinematic theorem of limit analysis combined with the discretization technique to generate the failure surface. Knowing that the majority of damages of these structures are caused by the water presence in the reinforced zone, different water table levels are considered in the study and their effects on the critical failure surface location are analyzed.
