“…Although the basic cost of EPS Geofoam is high, taking into account other factors such as transportation costs, there is no The cost of compaction required, machinery, and material availability, make EPS Geofoam feasible and economical for long term considerations. Research results (Hidayat & Suhendra, 2011) based on calculation results using the Plaxis 2D program show that the use of geofoam as filling material for embankments provides several advantages compared to embankments using laterite soil, namely: Higher safety factor Geofoam, SF = 1,77 Laterite soil , SF = 1,10. The results of research (Atamini & Moestofa, 2018) show that the gradual comparison of the settlement that occurs between red laterite red soil piles and foam mortar light embankments, the use of foam mortar light embankments on soft soil will result in smaller settlements (<74.40% ) compared to the laterite red soil option, because the foam mortar embankment can reduce the amount of settlement that occurs due to the light weight of the material.…”
