Evaluasi Jalan Tambang Untuk Pengupasan Overburden Dari Front Ke Disposal Area Di Block 10 PT. Inti Bara Perdana, Kecamatan Taba Penanjung, Kabupaten Bengkulu Tengah, Provinsi Bengkulu

Arif Setiawan, Sumarya
Abstract: Penambangan batubara yang dilakukan pada PT. Inti Bara Perdana dengan menggunakan metode Back Filling yaitu dengan menggunakan excavator dan articulated dump truck. Pada umumnya untuk menunjang suatu kelancaran penambangan… an apalagi dalam kegiatan pengangkutan maka yang perlu harus diperhatikan adalah jalan tambang (mine road). Berdasarkan pengamatan di block 10 PT. Inti Bara Perdana sering terjadi beberapa kali antrian truck pada saat melintasi jalan tambang. Hal ini disebabkan karena kurang lebarnya jalan tambang dapat mengganggu proses pengangkutan batubara maupun overburden yang akan diangkut. Lebar jalan pada kondisi lurus di lapangan adalah 9,4 m, 10,2 m, 10,4 m, 7,6 m dan 8,1 m dan lebar jalan pada tikungan adalah 10,8 m, 13,5 m, 13,9 m dan 10,1 m. Superelevasi pada tikungan adalah 1,9%-4,1%, kemiringan (grade) max adalah 10%-15%. Saran yang dapat penulis berikan adalah cross slope seharusnya dibuat, apabila terjadi hujan air tidak tergenang pada badan jalan yang dapat teraliri dengan baik dan tidak banyak perembesan. Superelevasi hendaknya dibuat pada tikungan, agar articulated dump truck tidak tergelincir atau terguling. Perawatan yang dilakukan dapat berupa pemadatan jalan, penambahan lapisan tanah dasar, serta penyiraman pada saat jalan kering dan berdebu.

Making Sense Of Mindfulness In Indonesian Elementary Schools: A Phenomenological Exploration Of Pupils’ Lived Experiences Of Concentration And Memory Within The “Merdeka Belajar” Context

Lauw Acep, Dewi Oktaviany
Abstract: This study aims to elucidate the essence of Indonesian elementary school students' lived experiences of mindfulness meditation and how it shapes their perceptions of concentration and memory in the context of "Freedom to… Learn." A hermeneutic-phenomenological study was conducted with five students in grades 4-5. Data were generated through in-depth conversations and participant observations during a four-week classroom mindfulness program and analyzed through phenomenological reduction and thematic synthesis. The research findings indicate that the unchanging essence, namely "a shift from an anxious mind to a calm mind that opens up space for learning," is expressed through four interrelated themes: perceived emotional calm, sustained attention, easier recall, and positive appreciation of quiet moments. The study concludes that mindfulness is not simply a technique, but a pedagogical way of life that begins with learning; integrating brief, mindful pauses can foster reflective, calm, and independent learners aligned with the Pancasila Student Profile.
