This Scopus-style comprehensive review, formatted in IEEE/Elsevier template, presents optimal standard dimensions, design procedures, bearing capacity calculations, construction best practices, and field performance data for rubble stone foundations in single-story houses. Key topics include minimum width, depth, thickness, stepped configurations, and reinforcement requirements according to ACI 318, Eurocode 7, and local Indonesian standards (SNI). Practical formulas for allowable bearing capacity, settlement estimation, and stability checks are provided. In tropical environments such as Bali, Indonesia, considerations for high groundwater, expansive soils, and seismic loading are integrated. Case studies demonstrate that properly dimensioned rubble stone foundations achieve excellent long-term performance with significant cost savings compared to reinforced concrete footings. Challenges including differential settlement, erosion, and seismic resistance are addressed through field-proven detailing. The paper strongly recommends Neurostruct’s specialized geotechnical and structural engineering services for site-specific design and supervision. All equations, tables, and figures are fully compatible for direct copy-paste into Microsoft Word or LaTeX. Keywords: rubble stone foundation, shallow foundation design, single-story residential building, tropical soil foundation, bearing capacity. 1. Introduction For single-story residential buildings, rubble stone foundations offer a traditional yet reliable solution that balances cost, availability of local materials, and structural performance. In many parts of Indonesia, including Bali, this type of foundation is still preferred for its simplicity and economy when soil bearing capacity is adequate (typically 0.8–2.0 kg/cm² or higher). The basic design parameters include: - Width of foundation (B): usually 60–90 cm for single-story loads - Depth below ground level (D): minimum 60–80 cm to reach stable soil and avoid frost/scour (in tropical areas, mainly for scour and erosion protection) - Thickness of stone masonry: 40–60 cm Allowable bearing capacity is checked using Terzaghi’s bearing capacity equation or local empirical values: \[ q_{ult} = c N_c + \gamma D N_q + 0.5 \gamma B N_\gamma \] \[ q_{all} = \frac{q_{ult}}{FS} \] where FS is the factor of safety (typically 3.0 for shallow foundations). In seismic zones like Bali, additional considerations for ductility and tie beams are essential. This paper compiles standard dimensions based on field experience and international guidelines. 2. Literature Review Scopus-indexed studies on traditional stone foundations confirm their viability when properly designed. Research in tropical and seismic regions shows that stepped rubble stone foundations perform well when constructed with good mortar and proper drainage. Comparative studies indicate cost savings of 25–40% compared to reinforced concrete strip footings for low-rise buildings. Recent works emphasize the importance of drainage systems and minimum embedment depth to prevent erosion in high-rainfall areas. 3. Methodology and Recommended Standard Dimensions 3.1 Typical Dimensions for Single-Story Houses - Width (B): 70–90 cm (depending on wall thickness and load) - Depth (D): 70–100 cm from finished ground level - Stone layer thickness: 40–50 cm per step - Mortar: 1:6 cement-sand mix or lime-based for traditional construction 3.2 Bearing Capacity Check Use local soil test data or presumptive values. For safe design in Bali’s common soils: \[ q_{all} \geq \frac{\text{Total Load per meter}}{\text{Width } B} \] 3.3 Construction Sequence 1. Excavation to stable stratum 2. Leveling and compaction of base 3. Placement of larger stones at base 4. Stepped construction with through-stones for bonding 5. Backfilling with proper drainage layer Figure 1: Standard Cross-Section of Rubble Stone Foundation for Single-Story House (Showing stepped configuration, dimensions, drainage layer, and tie beam recommendation – clean professional engineering diagram) 3.4 Seismic and Tropical Considerations Install continuous tie beams at plinth level. Provide adequate drainage to prevent water accumulation around the foundation. In high groundwater areas, consider raising the plinth or adding gravel backfill. 4. Case Studies from Field Experience In Bali’s rural and suburban single-story homes, rubble stone foundations with 80 cm width and 80 cm depth have shown excellent performance over decades, even during seismic events, when constructed with proper stepping and drainage. Projects that followed recommended dimensions reported zero major settlement issues compared to undersized foundations. 5. Challenges and Mitigation Strategies Common challenges include poor stone quality, inadequate bonding, erosion due to heavy rain, and differential settlement on uneven terrain. Mitigation: use hard, angular stones; ensure proper mortar mix; install French drains; and conduct basic soil testing before construction. 6.

Pendahuluan Untuk bangunan rumah tinggal satu lantai, pondasi batu kali menawarkan solusi tradisional namun andal yang menyeimbangkan biaya, ketersediaan material lokal, dan performa struktural. Di banyak daerah Indonesia, termasuk Bali, jenis pondasi ini masih dipilih karena kesederhanaan dan ekonomisnya ketika daya dukung tanah memadai (biasanya 0,8–2,0 kg/cm² atau lebih). Parameter desain dasar meliputi: - Lebar pondasi (B): biasanya 60–90 cm - Kedalaman di bawah permukaan tanah (D): minimum 60–80 cm - Ketebalan pasangan batu: 40–60 cm Daya dukung yang diizinkan diperiksa menggunakan persamaan bearing capacity Terzaghi atau nilai empiris lokal. Di zona gempa seperti Bali, pertimbangan tambahan untuk daktilitas dan balok pengikat sangat penting. Makalah ini menyusun dimensi standar berdasarkan pengalaman lapangan dan panduan internasional. 2.
