As all geotechnical engineers are aware of, soil behaviour can vary significantly from places to places. Design methodologies available in existing literature, especially on correlations of soil investigation and soil parameters, may not apply to local conditions. It is necessary to tailor well-established knowledge to the geotechnical problems related to Indonesia. The Indonesian Geotechnical Journal aims to address this problem by providing an open-access peer-reviewed journal. This journal provides a platform for authors to publish their state-of-the-art knowledge for practicing engineers as well as the academic society. Although the Indonesian Geotechnical Journal is intended to provide an outlet for Indonesia geotechnical research, suitable contributions from other countries will be most welcomed. Indonesia has a very complex geology, a meeting point of two continental plates and two oceanic plates. This means that the soil conditions in different part of Indonesia can vary greatly. Being at the meeting point of tectonic plates also mean that Indonesia, in addition to earthquake prone, has hilly and mountainous terrains. Further aggravating the conditions, Indonesia has a tropical climate, meaning high rainfall. Hilly terrain with high rainfall and earthquake is a recipe for slope failures. Mitigation of slope failure is something sought throughout Indonesia. Indonesia also has significant soft soil problems, with the fast-paced development of infrastructure in the recent years, various ground improvement techniques were adopted. The success and not so successful stories can be shared through the Indonesian Geotechnical Journal. Allowing exchange of knowledge and experience to enable engineers to build a better Indonesia. The scopes of topics include soil and rock mechanics, material properties and fundamental behaviour, site characterization, foundations, excavations, tunnels, dams and embankments, slopes, landslides, geological and rock engineering, ground improvement, bio-geotechnics, Geotechnical earthquake engineering, liquefactions, waste management, geosynthetics, offshore engineering, risk and reliability applications, physical and numerical modelling, and case-history.

Abstract

Settlement analysis is commonly done by assuming a horizontal soil surface with homogeneous soil layer. This assumption may no longer applicable when construction is conducted on mountainous area where there are a lot of hills or sloping area. Not only due to initial stress is no longer uniform throughout the entire construction area, excavation and fill activities which are required for the land preparation change the stress state of the soil. These problems are aggravated by the fact that soil layer in most of the mountainous area is not horizontal. In this paper, the effect of contoured surface and construction activities such as excavation and fill will be described by using a parking lot building project constructed at the mountainous area. The analysis is carried by using finite element analysis through MIDAS GTS NX. The result will then be compared with the finite element analysis without considering contoured surface and construction activities. The result shows that excavation and fill activities highly affect the settlement profile. For the area where excavation activities are carried, there will be less settlement which is expected due to an increase in over consolidated ratio. On the other hand, fill area experience more settlement due to lower fill modulus an increase in effective stress around the fill area.

Abstract

Numerical study to investigate the effect of various strain rates on global friction angle in the sand has been performed. Granular material behavior is influenced by several factors, among others: pack configuration, grain macro and micro roughness, confinement pressure, loading rate, etc. Sand is a granular material composed of discrete particles that the most refined microscopic techniques are needed to study its mechanical properties. In Indonesia, research related to the Discrete Element Method is still very limited. The two-dimensional discrete element method is capable to calculate the motion and interparticle contacts of large number of small particles, and each particle is modeled as a rigid circular element. The study started with the validation of the DEM model using YADE. Particles with a local friction angle of 35° are arranged in a closed rectangular box (frictionless wall). The number of particles used in this model validation simulation is 1000 sphere-type particles with monodisperse particle gradations. The simulation was done by a drained biaxial test with confinement stress of 100 kPa, thereafter varying strain rate are applied. Based on the deviatoric stress–axial strain curve from YADE, the result can be depicted on the Mohr circle to obtain the value of the global friction angle. It is found that the different value of strain rate affects its global friction angle. Increasing the value of the strain rate can increase the material global friction angle, which increases the strain rate from 1% to 5%, 10%, 25%, and 50% will increase its global friction angle by 5%, 5%, 14%, and 18%, respectively.

Abstract

 Indonesia’s geographical condition causes earthquakes to occur more frequently. This study aims to investigate pile group response under earthquake loading by performing pushover analysis. Since clay soil is dominant and widespread in Indonesia, the study focused on pile group embedded in single layer of clay. The undrained shear strength (Su) parameters of the clay are varied from 20 kPa, to 100 kPa with 20 kPa intervals. The pile and soil were modelled by Beam-on-Nonlinear-Winkler-Foundation (BNWF), and the soil was presented as a series of Winkler springs using the nonlinear p-y method. The analysis was conducted with a finite element method (FEM) software, OpenSees. The pile was modelled as a fiber section, where the transversal and longitudinal reinforcement can be considered. The research found that the soil’s Su affects the ductility and formation of plastic hinge. Greater Su resulted in higher ductility and occurrence of plastic hinge. Higher Su was also found to increase the internal force experienced in the pile, as well as lead to higher group efficiency factor. There was no shear failure detected in the results, but bending failure happened at the lead pile in Su 100 kPa. The overturning moment phenomenon occurred on the pile group in Su 20 kPa and 100 kPa. For Su = 20 kPa, this phenomenon is caused by the middle pile and rear pile, which did not have optimal performance. Bending failure at the lead pile led to the phenomenonin Su 100 kPa.

Abstract

Soil investigation plays an important role in construction design. Adequate information regarding soil types and parameters are needed for a safe and economical foundation. However, limited budget often leads to inadequate soil investigations, and as a result, unknown soil parameters are estimated through correlations from the limited investigations that have been carried out. Correlations from SPT and CPT results are often used for design, but their applicability from location to location is questionable. This paper discusses the correlation of N-SPT values to CPT values in Wolo District, Kolaka Regency. The correlation was performed using linear regression analysis to obtain relationships between N-SPT and CPT. The three correlations obtained are N-SPT = 5.64 + 0.012qc, R2 value of 0.082; N-SPT = 5.93 + 0.01 qc – 0.095qf, R2 value of 0.125; N-SPT = 0.025qc + 0.341qf, R2 value of 0.455.

Abstract

The presence of weathered volcanic rocks in Pamukkulu area is important in determining the location and construction of the Pamukkulu main dam and plinth structure. In general, volcanic rocks have poor geotechnical characteristics due to varying degree of weathering, influence of groundwater, and systematic joints produced by cooling lava. This study aims to study the type and quality of weathered rock around the main dam and plinth area. First, mapping of surface geology was carried out. To evaluate the degree of weathering, rock resistivity data is used around the main dam area. Whereas for the plinth area, the bearing capacity of soil/rock is evaluated using Plate Bearing Test (PBT) and Standard Penetration Test (SPT). Bearing capacity obtained from PBT that were carried out on rock surface can be used to interpret rock weathering. In addition to SPT, the coring from rock drilling was also evaluated using Rock Quality Designation (RQD). It was found that the rock up to 20 m depth are of poor quality. It is recommended that the poor-quality rock is removed until moderately dense rock layer is found.
