ABSTRACT The Pangkalan Kuras subdistrict in Pelalawan Regency is an area with a high level of flood vulnerability due to its low topography, land use changes, and significant rainfall variation throughout the year. Recurring floods almost every year are exacerbated by extreme rainfall intensity, unbalanced hydrological response of river basins, and inadequate drainage capacity. These cond…
ABSTRACT Self-healing concrete is a technology to heal cracks and reduce the width of cracks in mortars damaged in extreme environments such as marine environments with tidal or wetting-drying cycles. Shell waste through the combustion process will produce CaO content which has the potential to be a substitute for lime in cement making. This study aims to determine the effect of variation of…
ABSTRACT This research is an experimental study that aims to evaluate the use of fly ash as a cement substitute in Cement Treated Base (CTB) mixtures, using an alkali activator as a binding agent. The fly ash used was derived from coal combustion waste and was combined with an alkali solution consisting of sodium silicate (Na₂SiO₃) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) in three variations of alk…

ABSTRACT PCI and PCU type girders have similarities in the economic span range, which is 25–40 meters, as stated in the Practical Guidelines for Bridge Technical Planning (2021). This study aims to compare the use of PCI and PCU girders on the Siak Bridge sta. 195+500 Trans Sumatra Toll Road Rengat-Pekanbaru section Lingkar Pekanbaru. The comparison is made based on the parameters of pre…
ABSTRACT Regions where hydrological data are not available for the unit hydrograph method, the synthetic unit hydrograph method (SUH) is applied which utilizes the physical characteristics of the watershed. Some of the available synthetic unit hydrograph that utilizes the physical characteristics of the watershed are the Soil Conservation Service (SCS), Snyder, GAMA 1, ITB, and Limantara m…
ABSTRACT HR. Soebrantas Street is one of the main corridors in Pekanbaru City, serving a strategic function as a connecting route between educational, commercial, and residential areas. However, the high volume of vehicles, especially during peak hours, often leads to severe traffic congestion. One of the major contributors to this congestion is the U-Turn facility located in front of Pond…
ABSTRACT Stone Matrix Asphalt mix is an asphalt mix that excels in resistance to permanent deformation (rutting) due to its interlocking structure. However, this mix is costly and requires high amounts of asphalt and stabilizer. The use of stabilizers in this mixture serves to prevent draindown (the separation of asphalt from the mixture) in the form of cellulose fibers or polymer fibers, …
ABSTRACT A construction project has specific objectives that must be met, namely on-time, onbudget, and on-quality, as well as safety in the construction process. These objectives will be met if there is good management, one of which is project time management. This study aims to evaluate the application of Project Time Management (PTM) in construction projects carried out by contractors i…
ABSTRACT The behavior of a building during an earthquake is highly dependent on several parameters such as shape, size, and overall geometry. These parameters will determine the overall capacity of the building, especially seismic parameters. The ratio of vertical aspect (H/L or H/B) and aspect ratio horizontal ratio (L max /L min) affects the efficiency and stability of the structure in w…
ABSTRACT The Rokan Kiri sub-watershed is one of the sub-watersheds of the Rokan watershed. On February 26-27, 2025, flooding occurred due to the overflowing of the Rokan Kiri River. To reduce the risk of flooding, water structures are needed whose planning requires accurate design flood discharge to produce reliable, safe, and economical water structures with hydrological analysis. One app…
ABSTRACT Pangkalan Kerinci District is an area with a high level of flood risk caused by intense rainfall, overflow of the Kampar River, and land use changes due to industrial and residential activities. Based on a survey conducted by PT Tri Karsa (2022), there were 20 flood points in Pangkalan Kerinci Kota Village and 4 flood points in Pangkalan Kerinci Barat Village. The preparation of t…
The condition of people living in peatland areas makes it difficult to get clean water for daily needs and they have to buy clean water to meet their needs. Economic limitations make people in peatland areas use clean water for food, drinks and washing so that they are unable to use clean water to be mixed with concrete. People living in peatland areas only have another option to use peat water…
ABSTRAK The growth of the vegetable oil refining industry generates a large amount of solid waste known as Spent Bleaching Earth (SBE), which can cause environmental pollution if not properly managed. This study aims to utilize extracted SBE as an additive material in brick production to reduce environmental impact while producing an eco-friendly alternative building material. The research was…
ABSTRACT Construction projects require proper control so that they can be completed according to the planned schedule and budget. This study aims to evaluate the cost and time performance of the University of Riau Postgraduate Center Building Project through the application of the Earned Value method. This method is used because it is able to show the relationship between cost, time, and t…
ABSTRACT This study aims to utilize extracted Spent Bleaching Earth (SBE) waste as an additive material in the production of clay bricks. SBE waste is a by-product of the palm oil bleaching process, which is abundantly available and has the potential to cause environmental pollution if not properly managed. The variations of SBE content used in this research were 0%, 30%, 40%, 50%, and 60% of …
he rapid growth of high-rise building construction in earthquake-prone regions such as Indonesia presents significant challenges in structural planning, particularly regarding increasingly complex and asymmetrical building forms. This study aims to examine the influence of structural mass configurations on the dynamic behavior of multi-story buildings located in high seismic risk zones. The mai…
ABSTRACT Indonesia as a tropical country has a high risk of hydrometeorological disasters, one of which is drought that often occurs in various regions. This study aims to analyze the level of drought and its relationship with the distribution of hot spots in Pelalawan Regency using Sentinel-2 satellite imagery through the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform with the Normalized Difference D…
ABSTRACT Almost every year during the dry season, forest fires in peatlands occur, with the main factor being drought. In peatlands that have undergone land use change, there is excessive construction of drainage canal networks that accelerate the flow of water out of the peat. Depth to Groundwater Table is a key parameter in overcoming these problems. The ai…
