- Abstract
Effective use of heavy equipment is an essential factor in construction work completion. Analysis of heavy equipment usage optimization for excavation work on the detour track construction of the Solo-Semarang Phase I double track project is intended to provide an overview of the number of needs, equipment combination, and time needed for maximizing the usage. Excavation work analysis was carried out in two work zones (Zone 1 and Zone 2) with a heavy equipment usage combination involving an excavator and dump truck. The method used in this study is a quantitative method through direct observation in the field and literature study. Based on the analysis result, the excavation work for each zone 1 and 2 need one excavator and five dump truck to optimize heavy equipment usage. In addition, the analysis resulted in a heavy equipment usage combination based on a match factor of 0,883 in zone 1 and 0,822 in zone 2 for excavation work with 13 and 10 work days.
