Tanah ekspansif merupakan salah satu jenis tanah bermasalah yang memiliki potensi kembang–susut tinggi akibat perubahan kadar air, sehingga dapat menurunkan stabilitas konstruksi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh penambahan zeolit terhadap sifat fisik dan mekanik tanah ekspansif. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah eksperimen laboratorium dengan variasi kadar zeolit sebesar 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, dan 20% terhadap berat kering tanah. Pengujian yang dilakukan meliputi batas Atterberg, pemadatan, dan kuat tekan bebas (UCS). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penambahan zeolit mampu menurunkan indeks plastisitas tanah serta meningkatkan nilai berat isi kering maksimum dan kuat tekan bebas. Nilai UCS tertinggi diperoleh pada campuran zeolit 15%, yang menunjukkan adanya kadar optimum dalam proses stabilisasi. Peningkatan kekuatan tanah terjadi akibat proses pertukaran ion dan reaksi pozzolanik yang membentuk struktur tanah lebih padat dan stabil. Secara keseluruhan, zeolit memiliki potensi sebagai bahan stabilisasi alternatif yang ramah lingkungan dan efektif untuk memperbaiki karakteristik tanah ekspansif.

This study aims to determine and analyze the impact of the work environment on employee job satisfaction at the Human Resources Development Agency (BPSDM) of Jambi Province.

Environmental pollution is a common problem in cities and can increase the likelihood of flooding. The purpose of this study is to analyze environmental pollution as a cause of flooding in the Pekapuran Street area, Depok City. This study applies a descriptive method with a qualitative approach. Data were obtained through observation, documentation, and literature review. Based on the results of the study, it was found that the accumulation of household waste around the drainage channels causes obstruction of water flow, which triggers flooding during rain. In addition, the shallow, mud-filled, and poorly maintained drainage conditions increase the risk of flooding. Low levels of public awareness of environmental cleanliness are also factors that exacerbate the condition. This study concludes that flooding on Pekapuran Street is influenced not only by high rainfall, but also by environmental pollution and a suboptimal drainage system. Based on this, better waste management and drainage maintenance are needed to minimize the risk of flooding in the area.

Esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula is a congenital anomaly requiring early diagnosis and prompt surgical correction. Gross type D esophageal atresia, characterized by both proximal and distal tracheoesophageal fistulas, is an exceedingly rare variant that poses significant diagnostic and operative challenges. We report a case of a full-term female neonate with a birth weight of 3,200 grams who presented with hypersalivation since the first day of life, accompanied by coughing and choking during feeding. Orogastric tube insertion failed, with the tube arrested at approximately 15 cm. The patient was referred with a diagnosis of neonatal pneumonia and suspected esophageal atresia with tracheoesophageal fistula. Physical examination revealed tachypnea, chest wall retraction, and respiratory distress requiring ventilatory support. Babygram demonstrated the orogastric tube tip arrested at the proximal esophageal pouch with distal gastrointestinal air. Contrast esophagography confirmed proximal esophageal atresia at the upper thoracic level with suspected proximal fistula. Associated findings included bilateral pneumonia, right upper lobe atelectasis, and vertebral anomalies suggestive of VACTERL association. Intraoperative findings confirmed Gross type D esophageal atresia with proximal and distal tracheoesophageal fistulas. Both fistulas were excised, followed by primary esophageal anastomosis and transanastomotic nasogastric tube placement. Gross type D esophageal atresia is a rare congenital anomaly that should be considered in neonates presenting with hypersalivation, failed orogastric tube insertion, and respiratory distress. Anatomical subtype confirmation relies on intraoperative findings. Early surgical repair can be performed successfully; however, associated anomalies necessitate careful long-term follow-up.
