Menghindari

genangan
Mencegah erosi balast
Menjaga badan jalan kereta tetap stabil
Menjaga kuat dukung konstruksi

Dasar-dasar Perencanaan

Sejajar dengan jalan kereta api dibuat selokan

drainase di kiri dan kanan badan jalan.

Pada balast atau alas jalan bagian bawahnya

diberi konstruksi drain batu kosongan melintang
jalan dengan jarak antara 6 m diselang-seling
kiri dan kanan, untuk mengeringkan dengan
segera air hujan yang meresap.

Talud pada jalan kereta api di atas

timbunan harus pula dilindungi terhadap
erosi dengan membuat konstruksi drain
terbuka, batu kosongan yang dilapisi ijuk
untuk menjaga butir-butir tanah tidak ikut
larut terbawa air hujan. Konstruksi ini
berfungsi memperkuat talud. Drain batu
kosongan ini pada bagian bawahnya
disambung dengan selokan drainase yang
sejajar sumbu jalan.

 Ke

arah memanjang juga harus

diperhatikan mengenai
kemiringan selokan, minimal 2%,
maksimal 10 %. Jika kemiringan >
10% harus dibuat konstruksi
bertangga agar air hujan tidak
menimbulkan erosi.

The following are images of wick bores under the railroad tracks. The wick bores are
designed as a subsurface drainage removing unwanted water from under the tracks.

This image shows the mud

pots that are caused by
unwanted water under the
tracks.

Wick bores are installed

using trenchless technology.
The advantage of this is
uninterrupted railroad traffic.

The following is the casing

that will be pulled back
under the tracks. Inside the
casing is a wick drainage
pipe. Once the casing and
wick pipe are pulled through,
the casing will be pulled out
leaving the wick pipe in its
trail under the tracks.

After the wick pipe is

installed, a short piece of
casing will be installed on
the outlet end for support.
