Abstract

The high water content in marine clays could loosen the bond of soil particles, resulting in low bearing capacity and high compressibility of the soil. Excessive settlements could happened to the structures built on it. An electrokinetic process was attempted to reduce the high water content of the marine clay. An experimental study was conducted to evaluate the effect of electrokinetic on marine clay improvement. This study focused on the use of electrokinetic to enhance the soil bearing capacity of marine clay by improving index properties of the marine clay. The result of this research was obtained by doing several analyses on water content, pH value, and soil particles of soil sample located between cathode and anode. Based on the results from laboratory testing, it can be concluded that electrokinetic process decreased the water content and pH value of soil surrounding the anode. Also, soil particles surrounding the anode became in close proximity. This indicated that as it became closer to the anode, soil became denser.

Abstract

This paper describes investigation on the performances of cold asphalt emulsion mixes (CAEMs). The type of emulsion used was a cationic asphalt emulsion. The investigation was carried out at Leeds University, United Kingdom (UK). The objective of the experiments was to evaluate and to improve the performances of cold mixes and compared with hot mixes. For optimising the performances of the cold mixes, a target porosity of five to ten percent and indirect tensile stiffness modulus (ITSM) value of 2000 MPa was selected, suitable for low to medium trafficked roads. A simplified mix design procedure was used for producing the cold mixes. It was found that when properly designed, at full curing conditions, the stiffness (ITSM) of CAEMs were found to be very comparable to those of hot mixes. Test results also show that the addition of cement in the amount of one to two percent by mass of aggregates significantly improved the mechanical performance of cold asphalt mixes.

Abstract

Note from the Editor The Indonesian archipelago is one of the most active tectonic zones in the world. Therefore to design an important (and dangerous) structure such as a nuclear power plan knowledge of the seismicity of the site is very important. This could be achieved by doing a site-specific seismic hazard analysis. A site-specific seismic hazard analysis is required in the design state in order to determine the recommended seismic design criteria of the structure. A complete and thorough explanation of the methodology to do a site-specific seismic hazard analysis is presented in this Technical Note Abstract in Bahasa Indonesia :

Abstract

The desired accuracy level of an estimate heavily relies on the availability of data and information at the time of preparing the estimate. However, an estimate often must be made when data and information are not complete. At earlier stages of project implementation at which data and information are minimal, a client is often required to prepare a cost estimate. This paper discusses the capacity factor-based cost models for buildings with total areas serving as the proxy of capacity. A total of four cost models for different building functions are presented in this paper. Based on the models, most building functions with the exception of housings, exhibit decreasing return to scale, meaning that the unit measure of cost expressed by cost per square meter declines as the size of capacity increases. The cost models are then applied to estimate the development unit cost for different demographical unit measures.

Abstract

Advanced Traffic Control Systems (ATCS) have been recognised as one of the most direct methods for relieving urban traffic congestion. However, the applications of the systems in large cities in developing countries are unique because road networks in these cities face more severe transportation problems than those in developed countries. Furthermore, some of signalised intersections lie close, but others far from adjacent intersections. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the performance of ATCS at intersections with far distance to adjacent intersections and to recommend how to improve traffic performance with given constraints of severe transportation problems. Road network in Bandung, Indonesia was used as a case study. Microscopic traffic simulation was conducted to evaluate the performance of ATCS. It is shown that on average, traffic performance measures under Fixed Time traffic control system were similar or better than those under ATCS. In conclusion, the application of ATCS at intersections far from adjacent intersections is not effective.

Abstract

This paper reports the results of investigations carried out on the effect of varying curing age and water/cement ratio on the modulus of elasticity and modulus of deformability of laterized concrete. The test specimens were made with sieved samples of selected grain size ranges of laterite used as fine aggregates to replace sand in normal concrete. Batching was by weight. Three mix ratios of (1:1½:3), (1:2:4) and (1:3:6) were used. Water/cement ratio of 0.5, 0.6, 0.7 and 0.75 were used for each of the mix ratios. The specimens were tested at curing ages of seven to 28 days. The results showed that there was a corresponding increase in both modulus of elasticity and modulus of deformability of laterized concrete due to increase in curing ages. The mix proportion, compressive strength and water/cement ratio were found to have significant effects on both modulus of elasticity and modulus of deformability of laterized concrete.

Abstract

A seismic risk assessment procedure for earth embankments and levees is presented. The procedure consists of three major elements: (1) probability of ground motion at the site, (2) probability of levee failure given a level of ground motion has occurred and (3) expected loss resulting from the failure. This paper discusses the first two elements of the risk assessment. The third element, which includes economic losses and human casualty, will not be presented herein. The ground motions for risk assessment are developed using a probabilistic seismic hazard analysis. A two-dimensional finite element analysis is performed to estimate the dynamic responses of levee, and the probability of levee failure is calculated using the levee fragility curve. The overall objective of the assessment is to develop an analytical tool for assessing the failure risk and the effectiveness of various levee strengthening alternatives for risk reduction. An example of the procedure, as it applies to a levee built along the perimeter of an island for flood protection and water storage, is presented. Variations in earthquake ground motion and soil and water conditions at the site are incorporated in the risk assessment. The effects of liquefaction in the foundation soils are also considered.
