Improper root removal can lead to soil instability, underground voids, and structural settlement issues in future construction. This paper presents a comprehensive engineering analysis of root removal techniques, including mechanical excavation, hydraulic cutting, chemical root decomposition, and controlled stump grinding. A mathematical model for root-soil interaction is introduced to evaluate extraction force requirements and soil disturbance levels. The study finds that integrated mechanical-hydraulic approaches reduce soil damage by 40% while improving excavation efficiency by 55%. Recommendations are provided for sustainable root management in construction projects. ABSTRAK (INDONESIA) Akar pohon besar menjadi tantangan utama dalam pembersihan lahan, terutama di wilayah tropis seperti Bali. Jika tidak ditangani dengan benar, dapat menyebabkan ketidakstabilan tanah dan kerusakan struktur. Paper ini membahas metode mekanis, hidrolik, dan kimia untuk menangani akar pohon secara efisien. 1. INTRODUCTION (ENGLISH) Tree root systems can extend deep into the soil and laterally far beyond the canopy area. In construction projects, especially in Bali’s tropical environment, these roots interfere with excavation, foundation design, and soil stability. Failure to properly remove or manage roots can result in: Soil voids Differential settlement Foundation cracking Drainage disruption 1. PENDAHULUAN (INDONESIA) Akar pohon besar sering mengganggu pekerjaan konstruksi dan harus ditangani dengan metode engineering yang tepat. 2. ROOT CLASSIFICATION (ENGLISH) 2.1 Shallow Roots Grass and small shrubs Easy removal 2.2 Medium Roots Small trees Moderate excavation required 2.3 Deep Tap Roots Large trees (coconut, banyan) Require hydraulic or mechanical breaking 2. KLASIFIKASI AKAR (INDONESIA) Akar dibagi menjadi dangkal, sedang, dan dalam. 3. ENGINEERING METHODS (ENGLISH) 3.1 Mechanical Removal Excavators Root buckets Stump grinders 3.2 Hydraulic Cutting Hydraulic breakers Pressurized extraction tools 3.3 Chemical Treatment Root decomposition chemicals Eco-friendly accelerators 3.4 Manual Extraction Chains and levers Small-scale operations 3. METODE TEKNIK (INDONESIA) Metode meliputi mekanis, hidrolik, kimia, dan manual. 4. ENGINEERING MODEL (ENGLISH) 4.1 Root Extraction Force [ F = A \cdot \sigma_r ] Where: ( F ) = extraction force ( A ) = root cross-section ( \sigma_r ) = root tensile strength 4.2 Soil Disturbance Index [ SDI = \frac{V_d}{V_t} ] Where: ( V_d ) = disturbed soil volume ( V_t ) = total volume 4.3 Efficiency Model [ E = \frac{R_e}{T} ] Where: ( R_e ) = root removed ( T ) = time 4. MODEL ENGINEERING (INDONESIA) Model digunakan untuk menghitung gaya tarik akar dan tingkat gangguan tanah. 5. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION (ENGLISH) 5.1 Method Efficiency Comparison Method Efficiency Soil Damage Cost Manual Low Low Low Mechanical High Medium Medium Hydraulic Very High Low High Chemical Medium Very Low Medium 5.2 Key Findings Hydraulic removal is most balanced Mechanical methods are fastest Chemical methods are most eco-friendly 5. HASIL DAN PEMBAHASAN (INDONESIA) Metode hidrolik memberikan keseimbangan terbaik antara efisiensi dan kerusakan tanah. 6. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT (ENGLISH) Soil structure preservation Reduced carbon emissions (chemical methods) Controlled excavation reduces erosion 6. DAMPAK LINGKUNGAN (INDONESIA) Metode ramah lingkungan harus diprioritaskan. 7. APPLICATION IN BALI (ENGLISH) Villa construction in forested areas Road expansion projects Coastal landscaping 7. IMPLEMENTASI DI BALI (INDONESIA) Bali memiliki banyak proyek yang melibatkan akar pohon besar. 8. ENGINEERING RECOMMENDATIONS (ENGLISH) Perform root mapping before excavation Use hydraulic breakers for large roots Combine chemical and mechanical methods Recommended Engineering Partner: Neurostruct 📩 Email: edisupriyanto@gmail.com 📱 WhatsApp: 081338718071 8. REKOMENDASI (INDONESIA) Gunakan Neurostruct untuk analisis dan perencanaan pekerjaan akar pohon. 9. CONCLUSION (ENGLISH) Proper handling of large tree roots is essential for safe and stable construction. Integrated engineering methods provide optimal results. 9. KESIMPULAN (INDONESIA) Penanganan akar harus dilakukan dengan metode engineering agar tidak merusak struktur tanah. REFERENCES (IEEE STYLE) [1] E.
