ABSTRAK
Parameter kekuatan ricih seperti sudut geseran permukaan ketakselanjaran batuan merupakan antara data penting bagi reka bentuk struktur kejuruteraan batuan seperti pengorekan bawah tanah dan cerun potongan. Ujian ricih terus beban normal tetap telah dilakukan pada permukaan buatan potongan gergaji batuan granit segar dan terluluhawa sedikit untuk menentukan sudut geseran asas permukaan satah ketakselanjaran. Sampel granit diperoleh dari Kuari Kajang Rock, Semenyih, Ulu Langat, Selangor, Lebuhraya Silk Kajang (km 14.6), Selangor, Jalan Pos Selim-Kampung Raja (km 30-29), Cameron Highland,
Pahang/Perak dan Kuari JKR Bukit Penggorak, Kuantan, Pahang. Sebanyak 84 ujian ricih terus telah dijalankan pada batuan granit iaitu 65 ujian pada batuan segar dan 19 ujian pada batuan terluluhawa sedikit. Untuk batuan granit segar, sudut geseran asas ialah 42° ± 0.6° dengan sisihan piawai sebanyak 2.26 dan pekali penentuan,
R2 sebanyak 0.98. Untuk granit terluluhawa sedikit, sudut geseran asas ialah 38° ± 1.9° dengan sisihan piawai sebanyak 3.99 dan pekali penentuan,
R2 sebanyak 0.97. Nilai-nilai ini adalah lebih tinggi daripada nilai yang selalu dianggap untuk batuan granit segar iaitu 30°-35°.
Kata kunci: Granit; sudut geseran asas; ujian ricih terus
ABSTRACT
Shear strength parameters
such as friction angle of discontinuity surfaces of rock are among the
essential data for the design of rock engineering structures like underground
excavation and cut slopes. Constant normal load direct shear test has been
employed on artificially sawn surfaces of fresh and slightly weathered granite
to determine the basic friction angle of the discontinuity plane surfaces. The
granite samples were collected from Kajang Rock
Quarry, Semenyih, Ulu Langat, Selangor, Kajang Silk Highway (km 14.6),
Selangor and Pos Selim-Kampung Raja road (km 30-29),
Cameron Highland, Pahang/Perak and JKR Quarry Bukit Penggorak, Kuantan, Pahang. A
total of 84 direct shear tests were carried out, comprising 65 and 19 tests on
fresh and slightly weathered granite, respectively. For fresh granite, the
basic friction angle is 42° ± 0.6° with standard deviation of 2.26 and
coefficient of determination, R2 of 0.98. For slightly
weathered granite, the basic friction angle is 38° ± 1.9° with standard
deviation of 3.99 and coefficient of determination, R2 of
0.97. These values are considerably higher than the often assumed value of
30°-35° for fresh granite.
