A study on the extent of pond accumulation influence on roads‘s hydroplaning phenomenon / Nurul Yasarah Binti Mohd Yunus
Konsep “jalan yang memaafkan” ialah satu reka bentuk dan pembinaan jalan yang menghalang sebab-sebab terjadinya kesilapan ketika memandu serta mengurangkan keseriusan akibat daripada kesilapan ketika memandu. Salah satu masalah timbul berkaitan dengan konsep maafkan jalan ialah pembentukan kolam air mempengaruhi hidrosatah ketika permukaan jalan dalam keadaan basah. Oleh itu, kajian tentang sejauh mana kolam air terbentuk di Nibong Tebal telah dikaji. Dua lokasi kajian di Nibong Tebal telah dipilih. Kajian tentang sejauh mana akuasatah terjadi di Nibong Tebal boleh dilaksanakan melalui ujian kerja ukur lopak air. Kualiti permukaan jalan di Nibong Tebal pula boleh diselesaikan melalui ujian Sand Patch dan rintangan kelincir. Kesemua hasil data telah dianalis menggunakan perisian statistik SPSS untuk mencari hubungan dan korelasi di antara parameter. Selain itu, kedua-dua lokasi kajian yang terpilih menunjukkan risiko tinggi terhadap akuasatah kerana panjang lopak air ialah lebih daripada 10m. Purata kedalaman tekstur di kedua-dua lokasi kajian ialah 0.07m. Hasil data purata rintangan kelincir di lokasi kajian 1 ialah 41 dan lokasi kajian 2 ialah 50. Daripada analis pekali korelasi di lokasi kajian 1, hanya rintangan kelincir berkorelasi dengan panjang lopak air. Dengan kata lain, apabila panjang lopak air meningkat, nilai rintangan kelincir akan menurun. Lokasi kajian 2 pula menunjukkan tiada korelasi di antara parameter yang terlibat. Kajian ini boleh dilakukan menggunakan cara mengenalpasti kualiti dan keadaan jalan serta mengenalpasti hubungan di antara parameter. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Forgiving Road” is a designed and built road that prevents the causes of driving errors and reduces the consequences of driving errors. One problem encountered related to unforgiving road is the extent of pond accumulation influence hydroplaning which usually occurs on wet pavement. Hence, study about the extent of pond accumulation in Nibong Tebal, Pulau Pinang has been done. Two study locations in Nibong Tebal were selected. The extent of pond accumulation can be accessed through pond measurement test. Otherwise, the pavement quality in Nibong Tebal can be determined through the sand patch test and skid resistance test. All the results were analysed using SPSS Statistics Software in order to establish the relationship and correlation between the parameters. Moreover, it shows that both study locations had high risk of hydroplaning because the length of pond was more than 10m. The average texture depth for both sites was 0.07mm. The result of average skid resistance in study location 1 and 2 were 41 and 50 respectively. From the correlation analysis in study location 1, it shows only skid resistance correlate with length of pond. When length of pond increased, the skid resistance value decreased. Study location 2 shows no correlation between the related parameters. The extent of pond accumulation can be identified by determining the pavement quality and relationship of the parameter.
