Information of subsurface stratigraphy is needed during the process of preparing multi-story buildings to avoid problems in determining the level of multi-story building piles. This research was conducted using the geoelectric method to study the subsurface stratigraphic conditions in the area. Based on the measurement results, we find an overview of the subsurface stratigraphic conditions consisting of soil in the first layer with resistivity values ​​ranging from 305 to 570 Ωm, the soil in the study area is red-yellow, namely podsolic soil mixed with sand and gravel. The second layer is clay layer by water saturated with resistivity values ​​between 15 to 44 Ωm, and the third layer with resistivity values ​​varying from 112 to 341 detected from the surface is sandy clay. Insertion of coal at the first measurement point was detected buried at a depth of 17 m from the surface with a resistivity value of 962 Ωm.
