Abstract

The laboratory role is huge in determining the quality of education because the laboratory produces proud scientific works, which other institutions cannot make. To get quality universities, laboratories are a priority. The laboratory is an integral part of the academic field. Laboratory management needs to be aligned with educational planning (programs and budgets). This research was carried out at the Ujung Pandang State Polytechnic (PNUP) and the Merchant Marine Polytechnic (PIP) Makassar. This research method is a comparative research type. Data collection techniques used are observation, interviews, and documentation. The method of analysis was using quantitative descriptive analysis. The results show that the Ujung Pandang State Polytechnic has a laboratory with laboratory management that is very concerned about the curriculum/module/syllabus, which is updated regularly. Comparing management laboratory includes a) understanding and access freely the modules for students, b) online laboratory schedule, c) the ratio of teachers according to the Higher Education standard of 1 : 8. For Laboratory Management at the Ujung Pandang State Polytechnic using the SOP for practicum implementation managed by a laboratory technician who has a certificate for the use of laboratory equipment. Some technicians are always available at the laboratory. The ideal laboratory to consider the ratio between the area of the laboratory room and the number of practitioners, the balance between teachers and students, the proportion of equipment, facilities, room conditions, and the equipment used condition.

Abstract

The maritime industry requires lightweight, strong, corrosion-resistant, and environmentally friendly materials, particularly for crewboat construction. Conventional metallic materials often suffer from corrosion, high weight, and elevated maintenance costs. This study investigates the mechanical performance of epoxy–jute fiber composite materials as a sustainable alternative for crewboat hull applications. Experimental laboratory testing was conducted using a quantitative approach to evaluate the tensile strength, flexural strength, impact resistance, and environmental durability of the composites. Specimens were fabricated using epoxy resin reinforced with jute fibers arranged in four different orientations (0°, 45°, 90°, and random) and tested according to ASTM standards. The results indicate that fiber orientation significantly influences mechanical properties. The 0° fiber orientation exhibited the highest tensile strength (89.04 MPa) and elongation (1.287%), indicating efficient load transfer and good ductility. The 45° orientation produced the highest flexural strength (39.14 MPa), while the random fiber orientation demonstrated the greatest elastic modulus (25.81 GPa) and impact resistance (6.409 kJ/m), providing superior stiffness and energy absorption. Seawater immersion tests showed no visible degradation in the composite structure. These findings suggest that epoxy–jute fiber composites have strong potential as eco-friendly crewboat construction materials, especially when applied using hybrid laminate configurations (0°/±45°/random) to optimize strength, stiffness, and impact resistance
