Abstract
This article discusses the deformation and stability of embankment on soft soil. The analysis was carried out for four conditions. The first condition is 2 m high embankment was placed directly on the original soil, the second condition is that geotextiles are spread under the embankment. In the third condition, the original soil is excavated and replaced with 1 m fill to improve the bearing capacity. The fourth condition is the same as the third condition, but the excavation depth is 2 m. In conditions 3 and 4, geotextiles are spread between the original soil and the replacement soil to avoid mixing the original soil and the fill. A construction load of 15 kPa/m2 was applied to the embankment. Deformation analysis was carried out using SIGMA/W, while for embankment slope stability analysis using SLOPE/W. The analysis results show that the use of geotextiles increases the stability of embankment slopes, while the use of substitute soil provides an increase in the bearing capacity of the base soil and reduces deformation. Abstrak Artikel ini membahas mengenai deformasi tanah dasar akibat beban timbunan jalan serta stabilitas lereng timbunan tersebut. Analysis dilakukan untuk empat kondisi. Kondisi pertama timbunan setinggi 2 m dihamparkan langsung di atas tanah asli, kondisi kedua geotekstil dihamparkan di permukaan tanah asli sebelum timbunan. Pada kondisi ke tiga, dilakukan penggantian tanah se dalam 1 m untuk memperbaiki daya dukung tanah tersebut. Kondisi ke empat sama seperti kondisi ke tiga, namun kedalam galian adalah 2 m. Pada kondisi 3 dan 4, geotekstil dihamparkan di antara tanah asli dan tanah pengganti untuk menghidari tercampurnya tanah asli dan tanah pengganti. Dari keempat kondisi tersebut pada kondisi akhir (tinggi timbunan 2 m) diberikan beban konstruksi sebesar 15 kPa/m2. Analisis deformasi dilakukan menggunakan SIGMA/W sedangkan untuk analisis kestabilan lereng timbunan menggunakan SLOPE/W. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan geotekstil meningkatkan kestabilan lereng timbunan, sedangkan penggunaan tanah pengganti memberikan peningkatan pada daya dukung tanah dasar untuk mengurangi deformasi.
