SOIL IMPROVEMENT METHODS USING MINIPILE FOR REDUCING SETTLEMENT VALUE IN HIGHWAY TOLL KERTOSONO – KEDIRI
A highway toll project is an urgent need in this modernization era, especially in our country, which currently has a population of around 250 million people. From the population that has been increasing, In the current era the need for transportation is also growing rapidly, Therefore, a safe and comfortable transportation is needed. Relationship with the occurred of soft soil in the STA. 18 + 000 to STA. 20 + 300, the authors need to provide an analyzing way of handling the soft soil in order to meet the criteria for the settlement criteria. Meanwhile, the purpose of making analysis soft soil improvement using minipile is to find out a technical point still meets the requirements stated in the design criteria. To achieve this goal, analysis of the soft soil improvement in carrying out the analysis and calculations was taken from the results analysis of the N-SPT value and laboratory testing material from the soil investigation of the borehole. The calculation results obtained are in the soil improvement methods at the location which was originally using a minipile it can reduce settlement value < 20 mm/years, safety factor in earthquake condition > 1.10 and time schedule for implementation pilling work on site 1 month faster than the time required when using another methods for each location that has of soft soil content, especially in the section STA. 18 + 000 to STA. 20 + 300.
