Method Implementation Testing Foundation Pile Using (PDA Test) in the Residential Block Development Project of Class IIa Corrective Institution, Binjai

Abstract: One of the most important things in a building construction is the foundation, to prove the strength of the pile foundation that has been worked on at the project site, then further testing will be carried out. In the Class IIa Binjai Penitentiary Residential Block Development Project, a Pile Driving Analyzer (PDA Test) test will be carried out. This test is a dynamic test used to see or measure how much the bearing capacity of the pile is, the ultimate axial pressure resistance of a pile and others. This study aims to compare and ensure whether the Pile Driving Analyzer (PDA Test) test implementation method carried out on the Class IIa Binjai Penitentiary Residential Block Development Project is in accordance with the regulations referring to SNI 8459: 2017 and the guideline that has been published by the Regulation concerning foundation testing on building structures in accordance with the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) 03-2847-2013. This study uses a qualitative method, data obtained from observations and interviews with the implementing team in the field and the data can be used as primary data and from the test data, various secondary data specifications. With these two regulations, it will be compared according to the conditions of field work according to the standards referring to the Foundation Test in building structures with the rules of the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) 03-2847-2013 and referring to the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) 8459: 2017 concerning the Foundation Test Method in High-Strain Dynamic Pile (HSDP) and PDA test testing including HSDP testing. This discussion will focus on testing the pile foundation after the foundation of the Class IIA Binjai Penitentiary Residential Block Construction is carried out in the field.
