<p align="justify"> One of the most frequent natural disasters in Indonesia, especially in Java, is flooding. One area that is quite often affected by floods is East Cikarang District, Bekasi Regency and West Telukjambe District, Karawang Regency, West Java Province. The flood disaster in this area was caused by an overflow of water from the Cibeet River, which is a tributary of the Citarum River and forms the natural boundary between Bekasi Regency and Karawang Regency. Flood events are very detrimental both economically and socially, that is what is experienced by the people in Cikarang Timur-Telukjambe Barat. This research is intended to plan a countermeasure infrastructure that can deal with floods due to overflowing of the Cibeet River such as embankments. The analysis begins with hydrological analysis which is intended to determine the amount of flood discharge flowing in the river, then the next stage is the hydraulic analysis assisted by a model using HEC RAS 6.1 software. Based on the model, it will be obtained which river sections experience runoff and the determination of the use of sheetpile/embankment embankments will be adjusted to the existing boundary space.
