A disposal area is an area where soil and overburden material are accumulated or piled up in an open-pit mining area. The more material removed, the larger the disposal area. PT Bukit Asam (PTBA) is one of the largest and oldest coal mines in South Sumatra. PTBA's disposal area at the Air Laya (TAL) mine is one of the largest dumps, extending up to 80 meters above the original ground. In 2017, …
Tanah gambut adalah tanah dengan daya dukung beban rendah, kompresibilitas tinggi, dan sangat jenuh air, sehingga memerlukan stabilisasi sebelum digunakan sebagai lapisan pondasi. Studi ini meneliti pengaruh penambahan aditif Evocrete dan kombinasi Evocrete-kapur terhadap peningkatan sifat fisik dan mekanik tanah gambut berserat. Analisis meliputi kadar air, kepadatan, kadar bahan organik, kada…
A slide identification has been conducted at Sukawinatan landfill located in Palembang City. South Sumatra Province. This research area is directed for mitigation of landslides. This approach is done by building collaboration between surrounding communities in disaster risk reduction. This study used the two-dimensional geoelectric resistivity method of Wenner- Schlumberger configuration. Measu…
The methods of excavation currently performed at the PT. MME are free digging and ripping. Technical studies carried out to determine whether the overburden material excavated is actually free digging and ripping, according to the characteristics of the overburden mass and the digging force capabilities of excavator have not been investigated. This study is based on observation in the field, wh…
PT Bukit Asam (Persero) Tbk., a state-owned coal mining company, operates in the Tanjung Enim area of South Sumatra with a Mining Business Permit (IUP) covering 66,414 hectares. Coal extraction is carried out using an open-pit surface mining method, where overburden is excavated and transported to designated waste dump or backfilling areas. The Tanjung Enim Mining Unit (UPTE) consists of three …
PT Bakti Nugraha Yuda is an energy and coal mining company whose production operations operate in Ogan Komering Ulu Regency, South Sumatra Province. The mining activity plan will be carried out using the strip mine method. The angle of the slope is planned to have a depth of 65 meters. The slope in the mining activity has the potential to be deformed which can cause landslides if the slope geom…
PT. Bukit Asam Tbk is a State-Owned Enterprise company that operates in the coal mining sector. PT Bukit Asam Tbk is located in South Sumatra Province, precisely in Tanjung Enim District, Muara Enim Regency. The research was carried out because it looked at the condition of slope stability in the old dump area in the Mahayung North Laya Water Mine (TAL Mahayung) pit. Mining carried out at the T…
The open-pit mining system is used to extract thick coal seams and is carried out in stages using benches. This method is important due to its efficiency in exploiting large-volume resources. However, the low wall slope at PT. Banyan Koalindo Lestari, particularly in the North Pit, shows potential instability due to ongoing mining activities and varying geological conditions. To address this is…
This study aims to analyze the distribution pattern of hard soil and soil consistency values at certain depths at each test point. Palembang City has alluvial, clay/clay, sandy, and swampy layered soil types. The research method was carried out by collecting primary data from sondir tests and secondary data from SPT tests spread across Palembang City. And the data were grouped based on soil con…
Administratively, the research area is located in the PT. Bukit Asam Tbk precisely at PIT ZA, Sirah Pulau Village, East Merapi District, Lahat Regency, South Sumatra Province. This study aims to analyze geological conditions, engineering geology and the value of safety factors and the probability of avalanches in the research area. In addition, this study aims to recommend an ideal slope design…
Dalam pendekatan geoteknik secara tradisional, tidak ada cara menentukan nilai karakteristik tanah secara khusus (Honjo and Setiawan, 2007). Beberapa ahli cenderung menggunakan nilai konservatif, suatu nilai yang biasa dipakai, yaitu nilai rata-rata. Berbeda dengan konsep tradisional, dalam konsep moderen seperti Eurocode 7 (Orr and Farrel, 1999) yang merupakan salah satu draft kode modem (mode…
Geospatial integration of soil data is expected to facilitate the presentation of spatial data to determine the type of foundation in an area according to the parameters of the results of soil investigations and increase effectiveness and efficiency in determining appropriate piles or foundations in the area. This study uses the method of data recap archived by PT. Graha Multi Kreasi in the for…
