Abstract

The need for safe school buildings is further emphasized by the impact of natural disasters, which shows the importance of prioritizing investment in school infrastructure. This study aims to evaluate the suitability of the dimensions of the stairs with student anthropometry, regarding safety aspects in daily use, and provide design improvements to improve the safety of children in the school environment. This research is a descriptive-evaluative qualitative case study at SDN Ketawanggede from August 2023 to May 2024. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and document analysis. The results show that there are disparities in the implementation of safety and accessibility standards in schools with varying infrastructure conditions, focusing on both urban and rural areas, to identify disparities and best practices. The long-term impact of implementing safety measures, such as anti-slip materials, consistent step dimensions, and improved ramps, on the incidence of accidents and injuries among students, is analyzed. The practical outcome of this research includes actionable design solutions to mitigate safety hazards, particularly addressing differences in school floor heights and staircase dimensions. The study provides a valuable resource for policymakers, school administrators, and architects involved in designing and maintaining school facilities.

Abstract

Climate change poses pressing design and environmental challenges, addressable through time-tested vernacular architecture. The Sade settlement on Lombok exemplifies enduring green design practices worth examining for modern applications. This study employs a systematic literature-based methodology: reviewing green architecture benchmarks for an overview; analyzing studies on Sade Village's physical forms; identifying links between general green criteria and local implementations; and formulating principles for future general and vernacular architecture. Using descriptive-evaluative methods, it assesses design elements against eco-friendly standards. Key findings reveal Sade's strengths, including compact, contour-parallel building masses with linear circulation; north-south orientation for optimal passive lighting and ventilation; regulated heights with lightweight, hollow local materials for humid tropical and seismic resilience; ample green open spaces to counter urban heat islands; and nature-responsive site utilities. These principles demonstrate adaptive, ecosystem-sustaining design. The research yields actionable recommendations for integrating such green design principles into future architecture, particularly preserving and enhancing them in Sade and similar vernacular contexts to support long-term environmental sustainability.
