Reduce Flood Losses Of Kali Tanggul Using Spatial Based Technical Approaches

Flood disasters frequently occurred in Jember Regency, East Java. It is usually caused by the overflow of the Tanggul River in the rainy season, especially in the downstream area. Flood control could be done by building dams, embankments, shortcuts, and other technical flood protections. Meanwhile, mitigation efforts such as developing thematic maps of flood inundation need to be done to minimize losses caused by the flood. This study aims to design a flood mitigation strategy technically. The flood control structure was proposed by designing a shortcut in Kali Tanggul. Its performance was analyzed to reduce flood inundation in the Tanggul watershed. The flood inundation modeling was carried out using spatial analysis using ArcGIS 10.1 and hydraulic analysis using HECRAS 5.0.3. Flood inundation results were compared with the Tanggul watershed flood map developed by UPT PUSDA Lumajang. Based on modeling results, flood control using shortcuts is considered an effective strategy for flood mitigation. It was indicated by the reduction of flood inundation distributions, flood inundation height, and flood-affected areas. The results show that the flood height decrease 0.47 up to 0.56 m

Easy Way To Determine The Feasibility Of Coarse Aggregate On All Pavement Layers Using The Los Angeles Tatonas TA-700 Machine

The use of coarse aggregate with poor quality can cause bumpy roads, cracked roads, potholes, and others. Coarse aggregate wear is an indicator of the aggregate resistance index against friction with other objects. Any aggregate to be used in a pavement mix must meet the wear requirements. Low wear causes the aggregate to be easily crushed when exposed to friction and has an impact on a low level of stability. The purpose of this research is to determine the feasibility of coarse aggregate in Kedak Village, Kediri. One of the feasibility of coarse aggregate is reviewed based on wear with abrasion testing. This research was conducted by using an abrasion test using the Los Angeles TA-700 machine and SNI 2417:2008 as a reference. The specimens were taken at random and met the criteria for passing the number 3/4 sieve and stuck on the 2500 gram sieve number 1/2 and the aggregate that passed the 1/2 sieve was stuck on the 3/8 sieve as much as 2500 grams. The results obtained stated that the average wear of the abrasion test was 26.6%. Based on these results, the aggregate can be said to be feasible because it does not exceed 40% in accordance with the provisions of the 2018 Binamarga General Specifications. So that coarse aggregate from Kedak Village, Kediri can be used for all mixtures of road pavement layers.

Bearing Capacity Modification Of Clay In The Kedungsigit Village Using Zeolite

Clay is a type of soil with a high level of water content. These properties make clay soils have a low low bearing capacity which can have an impact on the buildings above them, such as cracked walls, raised foundations, bumpy roads and so on. The soil in Kedungsigit Village, Karangan District, Trenggalek Regency is clay and needs to be repaired to build a strong building. This study aims to modify the value of the bearing capacity of clay. Modifications were made by adding Zeolite with a percentage of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%. Zeolite is used because it contains mineral kristal alumina silikat which have the ability to bind grains between aggregates. Observations were made on the characteristics of clay including testing of volume weight, shear strength, and bearing capacity using the Terzaghi method. The results showed the optimum value for the addition of 15. In testing the bearing capacity of the soil using the tread foundation, the value of 32,470 t/m2 was obtained for the addition of 15% zeolite and 21,376 t/m2 for the original soil. From these results it is known that the use of zeolite can increase the value of the bearing capacity of the soil. So that these modifications can be used as an effort to improve soil in Kedungsigit village.

Flood disasters cause negative impacts, such as damage to facilities to the onset of fatalities. Reducing the risk of flooding needs to be done to reduce the impact caused by this disaster. Lamongan Regency is one of the regencies in East Java affected by floods every year in most of its areas. This study aims to reduce the risk caused by flooding by using GIS (Geographic Information System). Mitigation is done by determining areas with a high potential risk of being affected by flooding. The study used spatial analysis functions in ArcGIS. Supporting variables used rainfall, land cover, slope, soil texture, and watershed area, and it becomes important in determining flood-prone areas. From the results, the largest soil classification is the Kpl soil type. Litosol Gray Grumosol, The wide distribution of rainfall from 1500-1750 mm has the widest distribution is 66,67 ha. The slope of 0-8% has the widest distribution of 92,257 ha, making Lamongan a very vulnerable high flood area. Laren District is the District with the greatest flood potential, and Irrigated Field is the dominant land cover type affected by the flood. With the flood disaster map generated from this research, local governments can seek prevention in areas with high flood potential. They can carry out socialization based on disaster mitigation, especially for districts with potential flooding.

Investigation of Twin Tunnel Deformation with Umbrella Grouting Protection & NATM Tunneling using 3D Finite Element: Case Study Cisumdawu Tunnel

Cisumdawu Tunnel is a twin tunnel 472 m long located in Sumedang. Twin tunnel construction can cause additional ground settlement and tunnel deformation. The tunnel construction method used is the New Austrian Tunneling Method (NATM) and umbrella grouting protection system. The principle of NATM is to maximize surrounding soil capacity to support its weight and balance the stresses around the tunnel. Investigation of tunnel deformation is important to know tunnel structure behavior and avoid possible failure. This research aims to know tunnel deformation and the effect of twin tunnel construction on the deformation and ground settlement. The data used such as tunnel geometry, monitoring data, pressuremeter test, and the drilling test. The 3D analysis will be performed for a single tunnel and twin tunnel using Midas GTS-NX, and monitoring data will be used for verification analysis. The 3D FEM help to model the soil condition and construction stage according to the actual condition. The analysis results show the maximum tunnel deformation that occurs from the beginning of the tunnel construction is 12.64cm. If the deformation starts to be calculated following the monitoring reading time, after the excavation at the monitoring point, the maximum deformation of the analysis results is 3.3&4.4cm, where the monitoring shows maximum deformation of 3.3&4.3cm. Through the results, it can be said that the analysis using 3D FEM with pressuremeter test parameter represents actual conditions. Twin tunnel construction side-by-side increases ground settlement and lateral tunnel deformation significantly. Hence, it shows that tunnel analysis using 3D FEM recommends for future investigation of tunnel deformation.

Load Transfer On Bored Pile Foundation Instrumented With Fiber Optic And Concrete Quality Analysis

The problem in the construction method of the bored pile is the contamination of mud or the other contaminant that can cause the modulus of elasticity of concrete to decrease. This research determines the modulus of concrete on a bored pile foundation instrumented with fiber-optic (FO) with a manual calculation based on strain data during loading test, validated with the results of research in the laboratory and numerical analysis. Fiber optic was used to measure the strain along with the pile during the loading test. The bored pile foundation is divided into 12 segments with the same strain characteristics, and then the modulus value is calculated. The result is the modulus value of each segment is different, and the value of the modulus changes along with the increase in strain; the modulus will decrease as the strain increases. This differs from the theory that the modulus has a fixed value approximated by empirical equations. Made a cylindrical concrete sample on both sides, which installed a FO to record the strain during the loading test. The result is true that the modulus is not constant but decreases as the strain increases. It is shown in the result of analysis to fiber-optic measurement data. Created a model in Plaxis2D for validation, and the results are not much different from the manual calculation.

Horizontal Wall Movement and Ground Surface Settlement Analysis of Braced Excavation Based on Support Spacing

Lateral supports, including walls and bracing systems on deep excavation, are generally required to prevent excessive horizontal wall movement and ground surface settlement which can cause damage to the excavation construction itself and adjacent structures. These criteria are influenced by the stiffness of the excavation system, including the spacing of vertical and horizontal supports (struts). This paper presents the parametric study using the variation of struts spacing in the vertical and horizontal direction to analyze the influence on horizontal wall movement and ground surface settlement. The analysis was carried out using finite element software, PLAXIS performed in 2D plain strain and 3D. This study shows that struts spacing in the horizontal and vertical direction is equally important and equally significant on the deformation that occurs with a maximum difference of about 0.06%. The maximum horizontal wall movement ratio computed by 3D analysis to the 2D analysis is defined as plain strain ratio (PSR). The PSR value decreases when the system stiffness is decreased. Meanwhile, when the system stiffness was higher, the PSR value will be higher and closer to 1, showing that the difference in the 3D and 2D models is relatively small.

Optimizing Flexural Strength of Concrete Fc’ 14,5 MPa Using Acetylene Welding Carbide Waste

Replacing the main material using unused materials such as hazardous waste can be utilized in concrete innovation. One of the hazardous wastes that can utilize the waste generated from the acetylene welding process. The waste has hardening properties when exposed to water. Its properties are almost the same as cement can replace or add part of the cement mixture. Conducted this research was to determine the effect of using carbide waste from the acetylene welding process on the flexural strength of concrete. The experimental method is carried out by making test objects in the laboratory. The proportions of waste added were 7%, 10%, and 12% by weight of cement. The test object used is in the form of a beam with dimensions of 60 cm x 15 cm x 15 cm. The planned initial quality is concrete F'c 14.5 MPa (K175). The flexural strength test was carried out at the age of 27 days of concrete. From the results of the research carried out, it is found that the use of carbide waste from the acetylene welding process has not been able to improve the quality of concrete significantly. The highest flexural strength was obtained from waste at 7%, with a flexural strength value of 9.692 Mpa. So from these results, it can be used as a reference in the utilization of carbide waste from the acetylene welding process.
