| Summary: | The term of liquefaction refers to a liquefied soil phenomenon during an earthquake causing the loss of soil bearing capacity. In general, liquefaction occurs in loose sandy soil with saturated condition triggered by an earthquake with Peak Ground Acceleration greater than 0.25 g. This research aim to analyze the liquefaction potential of runway construction which located on loose sandy soil area. The analysis of liquefaction potential is based on borelog data, grain size distribution, soil physical properties, and earthquake risk map. The liquefaction potential was obtained by calculating the liquefaction probability in one dimension analysis determined as safety factor. Settle 3D is also applied in this research. The results show that the liquefaction potentially occurs in sand soil layer at 0-6 meters depth with safety factor 0.11-1.06 from manual calculation and 0.19-1.1 from Settle 3D. This result represents high probability of liquefaction at runway construction area, so that the liquefaction prevention method is needed.
