Road Damage Analysis Using the Bina Marga Method (Case Study of the Parit 5 Tembilahan Hulu Road Section
Keywords:
Road Damage, Highway MethodAbstract
Jalan Raya Parit 5, located in Tembilahan Hulu District, serves as a vital transportation corridor that connects various regions and functions primarily as a distribution route for local agricultural products as well as an alternative access to the provincial road network. This road segment consists of a two–way single lane configuration but currently carries a high traffic volume, including heavy vehicles such as trucks transporting agricultural and plantation commodities. These conditions lead to excessive loading, ultimately contributing to both structural and functional deterioration of the pavement. Addressing these issues requires a comprehensive evaluative assessment of the existing roadway damage, employing a systematic technical approach such as the Bina Marga visual assessment method.This study applies a descriptive quantitative approach, which is suitable for evaluating the physical condition of the road, as it involves direct measurements of various types of pavement surface distresses followed by numerical analysis. The findings indicate that the types of pavement damage observed along the STA 0+000 to STA 0+800 segment of Parit 5 Road include settlement, potholes, ravelling, random cracking, alligator cracking, longitudinal cracking, and patching. The average damage index obtained is 2.04, while the road condition index averages at 2.40. Based on the calculation results, the priority index value for this road segment is 10.5. Referring to the recommended action associated with the priority index score, routine maintenance is necessary for this road segment. Further mitigation and preventive efforts may include immediate rehabilitation of severely damaged sections, prevention of progressive damage, drainage improvement, and periodic monitoring.
