Beam to Column Timber Joints with Pretensioned Bolts Awaludin A.; Hirai T.; Sasaki Y.; Hayashikawa T.; Oikawa A.

The effects of pretension in bolts on hysteretic response of timber joints exposed to a bending had been reported by the authors, but the cyclic tests were carried out at small displacement level which might not be applicable for earthquake-resistance design. In this study, similar cyclic tests but at large displacement levels were conducted. Beam to column timber joints with steel side plates were fabricated and continuously loaded until failure. At connection, the bolts were pretension in four different magnitudes: 0 kN, 5 kN, 10 kN and 15 kN. The results showed that frictional action between the steel side plates and wood member as a result of bolt pretensioning significantly increased the (frictional) hysteretic damping and the equivalent viscous damping ratio. It is obvious from the test results that the pretension force in bolts has no influence on the maximum joint resistance but decreases the joint rotational deformation.

Applying Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) -Cut Based and TOPSIS Methods to Determine Bali Provincial Road Handling Priority Wedagama D.M.P.; Frederika A.

The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method has been employed in a previous study to determine Bali provincial road handling priority. This method usually overlooks the decision maker’s degrees of confidence and optimism of the decision. Meanwhile, Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) -cut based and Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) methods allow the researcher to estimate the overall road handling priority considering on degrees of confidence and optimism of the decision. The present study aims at determining Bali provincial road handling priority using FAHP -cut based and TOPSIS methods. The current study shows that decision makers’ degree of confidence in both pessimistic and moderate situations and optimism from certain to the most uncertain conditions suggesting the same road link as the highest priority compared to the previous study. Both current and previous studies also conclude the same road link as the lowest road handling priority.

Effect of Specimen Size on the Tensile Strength Behavior of the Plastic Waste Fiber Reinforced Soil – Lime – Rice Husk Ash Mixtures Muntohar A.S.

Improvement of tensile strength in fiber reinforced soil is an important research topic. A study has been undertaken to investigate the strength of stabilized clay-soil reinforced with randomly distributed discrete plastic waste fibers by carrying out split tensile strength test. In this study, the clay soil was stabilized with lime and rice husk ash mixtures. The main purpose of this research is to investigate the effect of specimen size to the tensile strength behavior. Testing procedure was formulated using extended ASTM C496 standard. The laboratory investigation results showed that split-tensile strength of reinforced specimens increased with increase in size. The limitations of the dataset indicate that specimen size of 70 mm in diameter is the threshold to produce reasonable representative strengths.

Model Development of Rainwater Management for Agriculture Decision Support System in Semi Arid Area Susilawati C.L.; Tunggul S.

Land cultivation for agricultural purposes in semiarid area is usually carried out only once a year specifically during the rainy season. The condition is even worse since it is not without the risk of failure because of dry-spell or water-logging. To cope with this situation, the researchers developed a model of Rainwater Management for Agriculture Decision Supporting System (RMA-DSS). The objective of this RMA-DSS is to facilitate the decision making to build water infrastructure. Using this program it is hoped that sufficient water supply for specific crops with correct planting time can be guaranteed, which in turn will optimize harvest. The model consists of three parts, namely, rainfall-runoff-infiltration model, crop water requirement-irrigation-drainage model and rainwater management for agriculture model. The Models are designed using Microsoft Excel’s Macro Visual Basic and finalized with Visual Basic language program for operating spatial database of map object and non spatial database.

The Influence of Rock Properties and Size into Strength Criteria: A Proposed Criterion for Soft Rock Masses Agustawijaya D.S.
Civil Engineering Dimension Vol. 13 No. 2 (2011): SEPTEMBER 2011
Publisher : Institute of Research and Community Outreach - Petra Christian University

A new modified strength criterion for soft rock masses is proposed in this paper in order to provide a suitable estimation for soft rock mass strength. The new criterion is based upon the current compression test data of soft materials of over 150 samples, and available published data of soft rock strength. It is shown that the proposed criterion estimates reasonable values of soft rock mass strength. Rock properties and size contribute significantly into the strength, represented by friction angle and unconfined compressive strength. Examples exercised reveal that the structure of soft rock masses takes a dominant part in controlling the strength, which then determines the modelled strength of soft rock masses. The results also show that the strength of the proposed equation could relatively be higher three times than the strength of the Hoek-Brown criterion for a massive soft rock mass.

An Assessment of Practicing Reflection in Teaching the Concepts for Engineering Statics Ande S.

Publisher : Institute of Research and Community Outreach - Petra Christian University

This paper shares the experience of Dr Ande in practicing reflection in teaching the concepts for Engineering Statics. His constant pursuit of being a reflective practitioner has made him more evolved as an effective teacher and made him more flexible in modifying his practice. It is interesting to learn from Dr. Ande experience.

Application of Buckling Restrained Braces for Seismic Strengthening of Irregular Gravity Load Designed Reinforced Concrete Frame Buildings Chandra J.; Warnitchai P.
Civil Engineering Dimension Vol. 13 No. 2 (2011): SEPTEMBER 2011
Publisher : Institute of Research and Community Outreach - Petra Christian University

Past earthquake disasters have shown that irregular gravity load designed (GLD) reinforced concrete (RC) frame buildings were very vulnerable to strong ground shaking. Many of them collapsed and caused loss of human lives as well as materials. Hence, in order to prevent future disasters, this type of buildings needs to be strengthened against earthquake. This paper presents a case study of an innovative approach for seismic strengthening of a typical six story residential building with a soft/weak first story using buckling restrained braces (BRBs). The seismic performance of the original GLD building and the retrofitted one are compared using three dimensional nonlinear dynamic time history analysis in OpenSees. The analysis results show that the innovative seismic strengthening approach for irregular GLD RC frame buildings using BRBs can significantly reduce maximum story drifts as well as building damages which benefits in reducing the risk of building’s collapse during earthquake.

Consideration of Road Management from the View Points of Long- and Short-Distance Road User’s Satisfaction Wardhana A.P.; Ishibashi K.; Kiyota M.

This study observed long- and short-distance road user satisfaction with national road infrastructure in order to direct future road management strategies. The research was a quantitative research method using questionnaire translated into the Japanese Language. The questionnaires were distributed to 2000 road users of two national roads in Saga, Japan. A five-point Likert scale was used to measure road user satisfaction, then the data were analyzed using stepwise regression. Based on regression model, long- and short-distance road user satisfactions were both affected by two same elements (road surface and road facilities). The availability of sidewalks mostly affected short-distance road user satisfaction. On the other hand, the smoothness of road surface was more considered by long-distance road user. Considering the findings, existing problems of inappropriate-infrastructure quality can be addressed to help satisfy user’s expectations.
