Abstract

Pisangan coastal area in Karawang has currently suffered from abrasion, and almost 3.5 km of land area has been covered by the sea. Abrasion has led to the destruction of settlements, farms, highways, and tourist area requiring the offshore breakwater to mitigate them. The appropriate breakwater to the circumstances of Pisangan coastal area is geotube. In this study, geotube is designed and stability of geotube is analyzed. The stability analysis of geotubeis determined by the stability against overturning, sliding, and bearing capacity. There are three positions of geotube is simulated to obtain the lessen shoreline change from abrassion. The result shows that the geotube attains the safety factor against overturning force, sliding force, and also the bearing capacity. The placement of geotubeat the occurrence of abrasion is the most effective position to cope and prevent the shoreline at Pisangan coastal area.
