ABSTRACT

Karatas Road which currently has the status of a district road. The road is planned to be upgraded to a national road designed using rigid pavement. This study aims to perform a comparative analysis of the results of the rigid pavement thickness design using Bina Marga method between Pd T-14-2003 and MDP 2017. The results showed that the rigid pavement thickness according to Pd T-14-2003 method was 220 mm, the foundation layer of Lean Mix Concrete was 100 mm, the tie bars and dowel connections used a diameter of 16 mm and 33 mm, while according to the 2017 MDP method of 305 mm, the Lean layer Mix Concrete 100 mm, class A aggregate foundation layer 150 mm, cement stabilization layer 300 mm, tie bars and dowel connections using 19 mm and 36 mm diameters. The results of the comparison analysis of the two methods are that if using the 2017 MDP the thickness of the 2017 MDP concrete slab is thicker, has a class A aggregate foundation layer, and the tie bars and dowel diameters are larger. The 2017 MDP uses the same concept as the Pd T-14-2003. The differences that exist between MDP 2017 and Pd T-14-2003 are: the types of vehicles that were analyzed, namely vehicles that have 6 wheels or more replacing vehicles with a minimum total weight of 5 tons, the existence of a subgrade handling with a CBR of less than 6%, the existence of a drainage facilitation in the area under rigid pavement.
