Flexible pavement planning methods can be classified into five categories, namely empirical methods, methods for limiting shear failure, methods for limiting deflection, regression methods based on pavement performance or road tests and empirical mechanistic methods. Pavement design procedures can be modeled as several layers or viscoelastic structures in an elastic band. By estimating that the pavement structure is like this, it is possible to calculate the stresses, strains, or deflections caused by traffic loads and environmental factors. This research will evaluate the construction structure of a porous asphalt mixture using cariphalte modified asphalt and the addition of gilsonite on a road section with a high traffic volume with an LHR above 50,000 pavement vehicles so that the thickness of the pavement structure layer will be obtained and then evaluated using the KENPAVE program. The results of this study show that the structural performance of porous asphalt mixtures with the addition of gilsonite in the pavement structure increases not significantly with increasing permit repetition loads at fatigue crack damage criteria of 0.5% and 0.45% for segment 4 and segment 5 respectively. Segment 3 showed a significant increase in the permit repetition load of 26.3% compared to the normal mixture. The structural performance of porous asphalt mixtures with the addition of gilsonite in the pavement structure increases insignificantly with the increase in the repetition permit load on the criteria for used grooves from vehicle wheels by 0.42% and 0.74% respectively for segment 4 and segment 5. However, in segment 3, there was a significant increase in the permit repetition load of 30.5% compared to the normal mixture.

Estimasi Quantity Take Off dan Simulasi Progress Pekerjaan Struktur dengan Pendekatan Building Information Modeling

2024-12-05T22:39:52+07:00

Estimating the quantity of take-off and scheduling is crucial in a project life cycle. Errors in the calculation of quantity take-off and scheduling can result in the amount of budget costs incurred and the length of time of the development process. The development of Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology has provided benefits in solving problems faced by the construction industry. This study aims to calculate the Quantity Take-Off and find out the difference from the calculation of costs on building structural components (concrete and rebar volumes), as well as to make simulation for work progress. The BIM software used is Cubicost TAS (Take-off Architecture Structure) to create 3D modeling and Cubicost TRB (Take-off Reinforcement Bar) for Bar Bending Schedule (BBS) calculations. Meanwhile, scheduling simulation is conducted using Autodesk Naviswork. The results showed that the 3D BIM approach resulted in a smaller total concrete volume with a difference of 2.38% (lower 41.11 m3) than the conventional method. Similarly, for rebar material needs, it showed that the difference in rebar volume is 10.83% (30236.42 kg) smaller than conventional methods. The simulation results in 3D form show that using BIM Naviswork can help monitor the work progress between the design and the field according to the planned time based on the 3D model so that it looks more real-time.

Simulasi Pengendalian Limpasan Permukaan dengan Penerapan Low-Impact Development di Kawasan Perumahan

2024-12-05T22:39:45+07:00

Applying the Low-Impact Development (LID) approach in urban drainage systems can help control surface runoff, therefore mitigating the potential of flooding risk. However, its effectiveness varies widely, and various technical factors influence its performance. This study aims to determine the effectiveness and performance of LID units, namely bioretention and infiltration wells, in controlling surface runoff. The Center Park Housing area, covering an area of 11.53 hectares located in Palembang City, was chosen as the study area. The ability of the LID unit to reduce the volume and discharge of runoff, as well as the runoff coefficient, was simulated using the Storm Water Management Model (SWMM) program based on input from various design rainfall cases. There were four simulated design rainfalls, i.e. 108.76 mm (2-year return period), 133.20 mm (5-year), 149.38 mm (10-year), and 169.82 mm (25-year). The LID unit implementation scenarios were varied with the number of infiltration well units of 1 - 4 units per house plot. The number and area of bioretention units were considered constant for all scenarios. The simulation results show that the LID implementation can reduce runoff volume and peak discharge and help decrease the runoff coefficient in the study area effectively, especially in the case of lower design rainfall (2-year). The performance of the infiltration wells unit in producing runoff losses is better than the bioretention unit because its construction structure has a larger storage capacity for a similar unit area. Although the LID method is quite effective in reducing runoff, its combination with conventional methods may produce better performance, so further research that discusses this needs to be addressed.

Impact of Land Use and Land Use Change on Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Palembang City

2025-01-04T08:09:20+07:00

Climate change is mainly anthropogenic mostly caused by urbanization, human activities in economics, industry, and transportation. The expansion of built-up land, deforestation and the loss of farmland are closely linked to land use and land use change. Greenhouse gas emissions produced by the land use sector can significantly affect global carbon budgets by changing the carbon storage level in terrestrial ecosystem vegetation and soil. In 2005, Indonesia was responsible for approximately 85% of carbon emissions. The Indonesian government is combating environmental issues by mandating local governments, including Palembang City, to conduct greenhouse gas inventories. Changes in land use and the amount of carbon stock in Palembang City can be taken into consideration by the Palembang City Government in dealing with climate change. Data analysis was carried out by interpreting satellite imagery SPOT-7 and classification of land use data into six classes based on AFOLU guidelines. The area derived from land use transition matrix of the period 2012-2018 is used as a basis to calculate greenhouse gas emissions. The greenhouse gas emissions were then calculated using the Gain-Loss method based on the IPCC journal as a reference. Due to land use and land use change from 2012 to 2018, Palembang City emits greenhouse gas as much as -149098.5827 Tonnes C/Year in total. Forest Land Category -26557.22425 Tonnes C/Year, Crop Land Category -112739.8894 Tonnes C/Year, Grass Land Category -32257.56413 Tonnes C/Year, Wetland Category -20721.68315 Tonnes C/Year, Settlement Category 43273.249 Tonnes C/Year and Other Land Category -95.4708 Tonnes C/Year. Inventories on greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and absorption trends are crucial for climate change mitigation strategies in Palembang. One important strategy towards achieving net zero emissions by 2060, as initiated by the Government of Indonesia, is to curb carbon release associated with land use changes.

Pengaruh Campuran Spent Bleaching Earth (SBE) dan Semen Sebagai Bahan Stabilisasi Tanah Lempung Terhadap Nilai California Bearing Ratio (CBR)

2025-01-04T08:09:17+07:00

One method for enhancing the natural state of the soil is soil stabilization. Spent bleaching earth (SBE) is the solid waste left over after palm oil is refined for use in oleochemical industry processes. When the field test value exceeds 3% and the laboratory test value exceeds 6%, the soil strength is deemed favorable. The test results indicate that as the curing time increased, the natural soil's California Bearing Ratio (CBR) value increased as well. After 0 days of curing, the natural soil's CBR value was 11.91%; after 4 days, it rose to 12.59%; and after 7 days, it reached 13.99%. Furthermore, the soil that underwent a 4-day soak had a CBR value of 4.01%. Concurrently, the CBR value increased with increasing curing time in the mixed soil CBR test, which had a composition of 10% cement and 22.5% SBE. The mixed soil's CBR value at 0 days of curing was 12.66%. Nevertheless, the CBR value increased significantly to 22.64% after 4 days of curing. Furthermore, the CBR value increased to 27.11% after 7 days of curing. The mixed soil's CBR value was 23.52% over the course of the four-day soaking period. We can conclude that the natural soil and the mixed soil exhibit their highest CBR values following a 7-day curing period. This suggests that the CBR value is influenced by the curing time. In both soil types, a higher CBR value was noted with longer curing times.
