| Summary: | Groundwater simulation technique was carried out for
examining the performance of sub-soil drain at problematic site area. Subsoil
drain was proposed as one of solution for groundwater seepage
occurred at the slope face by reducing groundwater table at Taman Botani
Park Kuala Lumpur. The simulation technique used Modular Three-
Dimensional Finite Difference Groundwater Flow (MODFLOW) software.
In transient conditions, the results of simulation showed that heads
increases surpass 1 to 2 m from the elevation level of the slope area that
caused groundwater seepage on slope face. This study attempt to decrease
the heads increase surpass by using different sub-soil drain size in
simulation technique. The sub-soil drain capable to decline the heads
ranges of 1 to 2 m. |
