Use-Pole Bamboo Raft Foundation with Full-Scale Model Test of Deformation Causeway Makassar New Port

Abstract

The number of buildings or constructions which are at the planning or implementation stage can not be allowed to avoid land base in the form of clay, then, of course, it takes geotechnical engineering to solve the problem by improving the native land so hopefully not happen settlement or deformation. Awareness of the importance of the soil remediation process before building construction on it be an idea to use bamboo as a material provision of soil reinforcement. This research was conducted with the full-scale reinforcement and the raft bamboo poles on the ground with a mounting base plate and observations settlement every day. From the results of modeling on the field at the U-50% condition waiting period ranges from 10-14 days, on the condition of the U-90% the waiting time ranges from 40-55 days, on the condition of the U-95% the waiting time ranges from 53-72 days and the condition of the U-99% the waiting time ranges from 83-115 days. Based on observations in the field, the final drop-readable embankment around 545 mm with a time of consolidation U-90% for 59 days. The results showed that retrofitting with bamboo raft poles can reduce the decline to 60.70%.
