Abstract

The rapid development of the construction industry in Indonesia reflected in the increasing volume of projects, growing design complexity, and higher demands for efficiency, requires effective project planning and control to ensure that implementation proceeds efficiently and successfully. However, schedule delays and cost overruns remain two major issues frequently encountered in construction projects, particularly when planning, execution, and control processes are not optimally integrated. This study aims to implement Building Information Modelling (BIM) 5D as a tool for monitoring project time and cost, combined with the Earned Value Management (EVM) method, in the construction of the Ambengan Batu Multipurpose Building. The project’s 3D model was developed using Autodesk Revit and subsequently linked to scheduling and cost data through visual programming using Dynamo. EVM values, including Planned Value (PV), Earned Value (EV), and Actual Cost (AC) were calculated to obtain performance indicators such as Schedule Variance (SV), Cost Variance (CV), Schedule Performance Index (SPI), and Cost Performance Index (CPI). All analytical results were then visualized using a color-coding system applied to the BIM model elements, enabling project performance conditions to be quickly and effectively interpreted. The findings of this study are expected to demonstrate that the integration of BIM 5D with EVM provides more accurate, transparent, and easily evaluated monitoring of project time and cost compared to conventional methods. This approach has been shown to enhance the effectiveness of project control and offers significant visual support for decision-making.

Abstract

This study evaluated the effect of carrot puree concentration on the final ?-carotene content of snakehead fish (Channa striata) pempek subjected to integrated freezing–thermal–vacuum processing. Four formulations were prepared with varying carrot concentrations (0 g, 150 g, 300 g, and 500 g). ?-Carotene was quantified using a validated HPLC-PDA method with a C18 column and detection at 450 nm. The calibration curve showed excellent linearity (R² = 0.9986), with calculated limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) of 0.13 mg/L and 0.40 mg/L, respectively. The measured ?-carotene concentrations ranged from 0.27 to 0.67 mg/kg, with the highest value observed in the 500 g carrot formulation. Statistical analysis confirmed a significant effect of carrot concentration on ?-carotene content (p < 0.05), demonstrating a clear dose-dependent relationship. These findings support the application of carrot puree as a functional fortification ingredient in traditional fish-based products. Future studies may investigate optimized thermal conditions or protective strategies to further improve carotenoid stability during processing.

Abstract

The Taliwang chicken dish has been one of the most popular dishes on Lombok Island since the Selaparang Kingdom. This study aims to determine the effect of the length of time chicken carcasses are frozen on the chemical composition, antioxidant levels, and organoleptic value of Taliwang chicken dishes. The materials used were the carcasses of 20 superior Balitbangtan native chickens aged 6 weeks, as well as several natural spices and chemicals, to test the chemical characteristics, antioxidant levels, and organoleptic properties of Taliwang chicken dishes. The research was conducted using an experimental method based on a completely randomised design with a one-way pattern, with four treatments of frozen storage time (days): L0 = no storage; L1 = 2 days; L2 = 4 days; and L3 = 6 days, with five replications. The research variables, such as chemical composition, were analysed using the proximate method; antioxidant levels were analysed using the DPPH method; and organoleptic evaluation was analysed using the sensory test method. The research data were analysed using analysis of variance, followed by Duncan's test, in SPSS version 25. The results showed that the length of frozen storage had a very significant effect (P < 0.01) on the antioxidant content and organoleptic value of Taliwang chicken dishes, but no significant effect (P > 0.05) on the protein, fat, or water content. The protein content of Taliwang chicken dishes, based on the length of frozen storage, ranged from 27.25% to 28.57%; the antioxidant content ranged from 64.62% to 95.75%; and the dishes were classified as having a delicious aroma, taste, and texture. The optimal storage period for chicken carcasses before processing is 4 days, yielding an antioxidant content of 95.75%. The nutritional content and organoleptic properties indicate that Taliwang chicken dishes remain suitable for consumption.

Abstract

Rendang, a traditional Indonesian meat dish with significant cultural and economic value, faces distribution challenges due to its short shelf life. This study evaluated static retort thermal processing to improve rendang’s physicochemical properties, microbiological safety, and consumer acceptance. Rendang samples were sterilised at 125 °C for 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 minutes, then analysed for composition, Total Plate Count (TPC), and sensory properties. Sterilisation affected product composition, with moisture, ash, and protein showing biphasic trends, while fat content increased steadily with increasing processing time. Microbiological analysis showed that TPC dropped from 70 CFU/g in untreated samples to 15 CFU/g or below-detectable levels (<10 CFU/g) after retort processing, confirming effective sterilisation. Sensory evaluation found that all treatments maintained acceptable colour, aroma, and flavour. Consumer acceptance was high for up to six months of storage, but declined for longer shelf lives, suggesting psychological factors may influence acceptability. Overall, static retort processing at 125 °C for 10–15 minutes offers an optimal balance of safety and quality, making it suitable for extending rendang’s shelf life.
