Waterfront City Pangururan is a Lake Toba National Tourism Strategic Area (KSPN) situated in Samosir Island. The construction of waterfront structures along the lake's edge forms part of an initiative to develop tourism in the coastal region. Due to complex geological and tectonic processes over millions of years, slopes have formed along the lakebed following the contours of the caldera. The soil material characteristics in this coastal area consist mainly of granular material with shallow groundwater levels. Moreover, Samosir Island experiences significant seismic activity, rendering it susceptible to liquefaction. This study seeks to assess the stability of lake slopes under conditions that may lead to liquefaction and its impact on waterfront foundation structures.
Seven boreholes were used for potential liquefaction analysis through both empirical and numerical methods. The empirical approach involved a simplified procedure for calculating the liquefaction factor of safety followed by determining Liquefaction Potential Index. On the other hand, QUAKE/W was utilized for employing numerical methods to calculate pore water pressure ratio. Both methods had their analysis results verified against soil response data obtained at each borehole. The borehole with the highest liquefaction vulnerability was then used for slope stability analysis under liquefaction conditions and the impact on pile foundation using QUAKE/W, SIGMA/W, and SLOPE/W.
The findings indicated that all borehole points exhibited potential for liquefaction vulnerability. Numerical analysis revealed differences in earthquake acceleration within 10% compared with those used in empirical assessments. The highest susceptibility to liquefication was observed at BH-2 among all boreholes studied. The evaluation uncovered that pile foundation implementation improved slope stability. Enhanced stability of pile foundations can be attained by augmenting the quantity of piles and decreasing the distance between them. This approach leads to lower bending moment, shear force, and lateral displacement values within defined thresholds.
