Develop a new laboratory LWD and this study aims to analyse the laboratory version of the LWD with the field version of the LWD currently developed by Bina Marga, Indonesia. Basically, the working principle of the developed laboratory LWD is same as the LWD equipment in the field, which is an instrument that can measure deflection value and modulus of elasticity through load impulses arising from a load with a specific weight dropped at a certain height on a plate surface with a particular area on a pavement surface that is will cause deflection that is measured using a displacement sensor. A series of studies were conducted to compiled an equation that provides a correlation between the laboratory LWD and the LWD used in the field.

Makassar, an Indonesian city, is situated on the south-western coast of Sulawesi Island. It is the largest commercial centre in eastern Indonesia, and traffic congestion is a problem there. Movement management must establish sufficient and well-organized parking areas, as well as a good and transparent system to eliminate unmonitored restitution funds, in order to address these issues. To address parking issues in Makassar, a legal and technical strategy is developed, with an emphasis on inclusiveness and including both legal and illegal parking spaces. The integrated parking concept is comprised of a mobile, everywhere-accessible parking area reservation system, a vehicle registration system based on licence plate numbers, and an effective data management system. 180 million Indonesian Rupiah are spent on all equipment and activity installations (IDR). At least 50 locations utilising this system will be required for a minimum vehicle range of 250,000 units, resulting in an approximate capital cost of 9 billion rupiah. The first clause describes the application of minimum parking fees to flat parking fees (generally 2 thousand rupiah). During a single parking period, it is anticipated that 250,000 vehicles will utilise this parking system if all parking spaces are occupied simultaneously. Government and investors can raise 250 million rupiah in investment capital assuming a 50:50 profit split. Revenue can reach billions of rupiah with just four iterations. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-SP2023-09-05 Full Text: PDF

Highway consultants need pavement structure strength to examine and design. With advances in computer, sensor, and microelectronic technologies, the light weight deflectometer (LWD) can measure granular and asphalt layers. This portable, easy-to-use tool is suggested. This article was designed to improve LWD Pusjatan's accuracy and distinguish it from other testing methods. This study compares the LWD Pusjatan and UMMATA (Universal Material Testing Apparatus) methods for measuring modulus of elasticity on different materials. Boussinesq elastic theory is used to compute the modulus of most LWDs. In a semi-elastic environment, modulus is the connection between pressure and displacement in a rigid or flexible basis. The deflection value is derived from the process of vibrations caused by a load delivered from a given height onto a test item, with the wave/vibration collected by an acceleration measuring instrument, such as a geophone or accelerometer. The modulus of elasticity provided by the AUDL (Laboratory Deflection Test Equipment) method is less than that produced by the UMMATA method. According to the test results, the average value of AC Base material is 7.52% less than that of AC Base. The average value of AC BC material is just over 0.3%. These results indicate that more testing is necessary when using the AUDL methodology to detect correlations that might serve as a basis for comparison. Thus, the AUDL test method may be used as a nondestructive testing technique. This kind of non-destructive technique should be used frequently so that simulations of field circumstances are more accurate. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-06-012 Full Text: PDF
