Importance of Triaxial Cyclic Testing in Geotechnical Engineering The Triaxial Cyclic Test in geotechnical engineering plays a vital role in evaluating soil behavior under cyclic or repeated loading conditions. This test simulates the effects of dynamic forces, such as earthquakes, traffic loads, and vibrations, on soil and rock samples. By understanding how soil reacts to […]
How Geotechnical Engineering Supports Smart City Development Smart cities are the future of urban planning. They combine advanced technology, data-driven systems, and sustainable infrastructure to improve the quality of life. However, a smart city cannot function without a strong and reliable foundation. This is where geotechnical engineering in smart city development becomes essential. What Is

Identifying Saprolite Nickel in the Field in Indonesia Saprolite nickel ore plays a crucial role in the mining industry, especially for ferronickel and stainless steel production. In Indonesia, saprolite occurs widely in laterite nickel deposits. Therefore, accurate field identification helps geologists, engineers, and mining professionals conduct proper exploration, sampling, and utilization. What is Saprolite Nickel?
High-Grade vs Low-Grade Nickel Utilization in Indonesia Nickel plays a crucial role in Indonesia’s mining and industrial sectors. As the world’s largest nickel producer, Indonesia supplies both high-grade and low-grade nickel ores, each with distinct applications and economic importance. Understanding the differences between the two types of nickel is essential for evaluating their role in

Freeport Underground Mine Accident Victims: Identities Confirmed The Freeport underground mine accident victims have been identified after a tragic incident at the Grasberg Block Cave (GBC) in Tembagapura, Mimika, Papua. A wet material slide trapped several workers in the underground mine. On Saturday, September 20, 2025, at 08:45 WIT, the rescue team of PT Freeport
The Use of Undisturbed Samples (UDS) in Numerical Modeling (PLAXIS, Geo5, MIDAS GTS) In geotechnical engineering, accurate data is the foundation of safe and reliable design. One of the most valuable sources of this data is the Undisturbed Sample (UDS)—a soil sample taken with minimal disturbance, preserving its natural structure, water content, and mechanical properties.
Understanding Job Safety Analysis (JSA) to Improve Workplace Safety Workplace safety is not just a legal requirement—it is the foundation of productivity, efficiency, and employee well-being. One of the most effective tools used worldwide to manage risks and prevent accidents is Job Safety Analysis (JSA). This method helps organizations systematically identify hazards, evaluate risks, and
Cyclic Simple Shear Test on Soils in Indonesian Mining Areas The Cyclic Simple Shear Test is one of the most reliable laboratory methods used to evaluate the cyclic behavior of soils under repeated loading conditions. In Indonesia, particularly in mining areas where ground stability is a major concern, this test provides crucial data to ensure
