II. DESCRIPTION LAND INQUIRY

II.1 METHOD OF INQUIRY LAND

a. Core Drilling
Core drilling (core drilling) is done in order to get below the surface of the ground
state of the nature engineering, derived from visual descriptions and laboratories
(classification of rock / soil). Drilling carried out using rotary drilling machine (rotary
drilling) brands YBM type B1. The drill used is BX-size core barrel size. Drilling is
done by the system "Coring / Washing". Core sampling soil stratigraphy in accordance
with the progress / progress of drilling.

b. Soil Sampling
Taking undisturbed sample is intended to obtain a relatively original soil samples
(in-situ). Samples were taken with a thin tube, which is pressed on the desired depth of
the soil with tools used, the soil. Examples are drawn immediate "sealing" with
paraffin on both ends and immediately sent to the laboratory.

c. Laboratory
Laboratory experiment conducted primarily to determine the index properties and
engineering properties, in order to obtain soil parameters used in the design of
foundation construction (look at the table 2 summary labs).

IV.3 ELECTION STUDY FOUNDATION

Construction on the segment with Steel Pile, pile where the position of sitting on the
dock elevation assumes: - 15,00 meters. Structures with loads of foundation in hard soil
sits on the most secure to the decline, earthquake forces and so on, which can be the
foundation of the Steel-pile or bore-pile.

*Bore pile

Pekerjaan pemasangan tiang bor pada adhesi antara sisi tiang dan tanah di sekitarnya,
menunjukkan bahwa nilai adhesi lebih kecil dari pada nilai kohesi tak
terdrainase(undrained cohesion) tanah sebelum pemasangan tiang akibat dari pelunakan
lempung disekitar dinding lubang bor.

Pelunakannya terpengaruh dari bertambahnya kadar air lempung seperti air pada
pengecoran beton, pengaliran air tanah ke zona yang bertekanan lebih rendah di sekitar
lubang bor. Dapat dikurangi jika pengeboran dan pengecoran dilaksanakan waktu 1 atau 2
jam.

and analysis, for Offshore Ground Investigation for Sengkang LNG Export Terminal,
given the following recommendations:

1. Estimate using the Steel Pile where the position of sitting on the dock elevation
assumes: - 15,00 meter
2. bore pile foundation alternative uses
So The Final recommend is expected to assist in the implementation

Installation does not cause interference harmful noise and vibration surrounding buildings.
2. Reduce the need for concrete and reinforcing dowel pole on the cover plate. Columns can
be directly put on the top of the pile bore.
3. Depth of the pole can be varied.
4. Soil can be checked and compared with laboratory data.
5. Pole can be installed penetrate rock bore
6. Diameter of the pole allows made, if necessary, the lower end of the pole can be made
larger in order to enhance its carrying capacity.
7. Reinforcement is not affected by the voltage on the transport and erection time
1. Casting pile weather conditions affected

CV. PRIMATAMA PRIMA KONSULTAMA 9


2. Concrete casting a bit difficult when the ground water is affected due to the quality of the
concrete can not be controlled.
3. Casting concrete quality results if no guaranteed uniformity along the pile body and pile
bearing capacity reduces, especially when the pole drill deep enough
4. Drilling can cause interference density, when the soil in the form of sand or gravel
5. Water flowing into the wellbore can cause soil disturbance, thereby reducing the pile
bearing capacity
