Abstract

The Sadawarna Dam and its surroundings, which are located in Subang Regency, are currently under construction. Change in land use caused by the construction occurred. Land management and soil conservation are needed to prevent uncontrolled erosion because it can caused slopes in critical condition, flood occurred in the downstream areas of river, and silting of dam. One of the information in land management and soil conservation is by identifying the soil erodibility which aims to find out the sensitivity of the soil to erosion in the research area. Soil erodibility affected by grain size distribution, soil structure, soil organic matter, and soil permeability. In this research area, the soil erodibility was calculated based on disturbed sample in the field which was then tested in the laboratory. The laboratory tests include sieve analysis, hydrometer analysis, and %c organic. Soil permeability obtained from previous studies. The research area is dominated by clay-sized soil which are the result of weathered claystone in Subang Formation. Soil erodibility value in the research area ranged from 1,100 – 0,448 t ha h/ha MJ cm with dominance of low soil erodibility classes. The dominance of clay-sized soil causes low soil erodibility value because clay sized soil has cohesive properties so it tends to be difficult to erode.

Abstract

Slope stability has been a problem that studied on geotechnical works for the uncertainties such as varieties of soil behaviours to unpredicted failure of measurements and samplings. The Limit Equilibrium Method (LEM) has been popular for decades for its convenience but cannot determine displacement thus the result could be uncertain. As computational calculations have been developed, the Finite Element Method (FEM) began to use as a tool to not only determine factor of safety, but also determine displacement and forces that affect slope’s stability. This research was done to analysed slope stability using Shear Strength Reduction (SSR) and compared it to general method such as Limit Equilibrium Method (LEM). The research was conducted on a section in Sadawarna DAM ring road area, Subang, West Java. Slope on research area was divided into two layers with the bottom layer relatively non-cohesive compared to the top of layer. Both soil however dominantly consist with fine grain soil such as silt and clay. The upper layer of slope can contain more water with liquid limit of 73,46% compared to the lower layer with 68,27% liquid limit.  Simulation result showed slope that analysed using SSR method has Factor of Safety (FoS) 0,12 lower than LEM method. SSR method could be used to analysed pessimistic value at worst scenario and could predicted deformation of slope.
