Abstract

The utilization of beds among the elderly, especially those with degenerative diseases, presents health and comfort challenges. To address these issues, this research aims to redesign elderly beds using a participatory ergonomics method at Madania Potonoro Nursing Home. By involving the elderly and caregivers in the process, the research findings highlight the need for bed improvements. The proposed design includes additional features such as a folding table, bookshelf, cane holder, assistive standing devices, and a drink holder, based on identified needs. Anthropometric dimensions, including Shoulder Width (SW), Height (H), Popliteal Height (PH), Elbow Height in Sitting (EHS), Elbow Height in Standing (EHS), Seat Depth (SD), and Maximum Grip Diameter (MGD), serve as guidelines for bed design. Analyzing these dimensions at the 5th, 50th, and 95th percentiles, adjustments are made to accommodate additional attributes or features on the bed. The recommended design not only provides optimal comfort and safety for the elderly but also improves their overall quality of life. This research emphasizes the importance of involving users in the design process to ensure solutions align with their needs and preferences.

Abstract

Inventory of raw materials is one of the crucial problems in the company. Errors in determining the size of raw material inventory is very influential for the smooth production of the company. PT Semen Bosowa Maros is a private company that focuses on cement production. This study aims to avoid excess and shortage of raw materials by calculating the amount of raw material inventory at PT Semen Bosowa Maros. This study uses the Min-Max Stock method. The research data was obtained from the company's annual data with related parties. The results of the study obtained safety stock values of Silica Sand 166.46 ton’s, Gypsum 1482.96 ton’s, Fly Ash 33.71 ton’s, and Trass 30.76 ton’s. Then, the minimum inventory calculation is carried out, it is known that the minimum inventory results are found in Trass raw materials of 260.18 ton’s while the results for maximum inventory are in Gypsum of 22117.18 ton’s. After calculating the min-max, an order policy can be obtained for each material, Silica Sand 1074.85 ton’s, Gypsum 9575.63 ton’s, Fly Ash 217.68 ton’s, and Trass 198.65 ton’s.
