Analisis Rembesan pada Bendung Tipe Urugan melalui Uji Hidrolik di Laboratorium FT Unsri
Abstrak: Dam is used to raise
water level and store water. One problem that often occurs is the presence of
seepage at the dam. This study aims to determine the effect of soil particle
size, high water level of the seepage velocity and seepage flow pattern on the
dam. The method used in this study is the Darcy's law. The equipment used was
Drainage and Seepage Tank. The results of this study indicate that the seepage
velocity on sand 1 (medium sand) with water level 40 cm, 30 cm, and 25 cm is
8.4 x 10-4 cm / sec, 7.4 x 10-4 cm / sec and 6 x 10-4 cm / sec. At 2 sand (fine
sand) with water level 40 cm, 30 cm and 25 cm is 3.58 x 10-4 cm / sec, 3.07 x
10-4 cm / sec, and 2.69 x 10-4 cm / sec. The results showed that the higher
water level the faster seepage and the greater zize of a grain of soil more
velocity.
