Abstract

Indonesia is an archipelagic country consisting of various tribes and cultures, one of which is the Osing Tribe in Banyuwangi, located at the eastern tip of Java Island, near Bali Island. The culture of the Osing tribe is manifested in the traditional Osing house architecture, especially in Kemiren Village, which is built from a combination of Osing's unique technology and art. From its position, the Banyuwangi area is located at the boundary of tectonic plates, which results in the potential for natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, landslides, and tsunamis. This research aims to study the structural design of the traditional Osing tribe house in responding to these disasters threat. The identification of the structural elements is then analyzed to determine how the building will transmit the axial and lateral load, as well as withstand disasters. The result is that the Osing tribe house has applied the local wisdom, manifested in the house’s tectonic design. The details of the building could respond and distribute the loads caused by disaster. Responding to the load from the volcanic ash, the Osing house’s roof needs reinforcement to sustain its rigidity.

Abstract

In designing the function of a space, there are several important aspects to consider, one of which is acoustic quality that affects comfort and the building's resistance to sound. One type of building that requires good acoustic conditions is a mosque, as a place of worship for Muslims that needs a quiet atmosphere with low noise levels and even sound distribution, with a maximum noise limit of 55 dB. This study focuses on a mosque located in the city center of Maumere, which is used as the observation object to assess its acoustic quality. The sound sources observed are from outside the building and their influence inside the building. The method used in this study is a quantitative approach, through observation and measurement using a Sound Level Meter (SLM), which includes literature study, field observation, and analysis. The results of the observation and measurement show that the noise level in the mosque does not meet the standards set for places of worship. The lowest noise point was detected on the north side of the building, at 66.2 dB(A), caused by several walls that function as noise barriers and reduce the noise level compared to other points.

Abstract

Implementing the green building concept is a strategic solution to support sustainable development, particularly in the construction sector, which significantly contributes to environmental degradation. In Indonesia, the Green Building Council Indonesia (GBCI) has established the Greenship rating tool as a standard for green buildings, including the Land Use Efficiency category. Menara Poltekkes Riau was selected as the research object because it is a new building aligned with sustainable development principles as stipulated in the Decree of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia Number HK.01.07/MENKES/550/2024. This study aims to evaluate the application of the Land Use Efficiency category, measure the level of achievement, and provide recommendations for improvement. The research employs a mixed-method approach (quantitative and qualitative), with data collected through field observations and an As-built Drawing document study. The evaluation results indicate that Menara Poltekkes Riau achieved 5 out of 17 points or 5% of the total points in the Land Use Efficiency category. The criteria achieved include Basic Green Area (ASD-P) Benchmark 1A, Site Selection (ASD-1) Benchmark 1A, Community Accessibility (ASD-2) Benchmark 1, Public Transportation (ASD-3) Benchmark 1A, and Microclimate (ASD-6) Benchmarks 1A and 2. However, other criteria have not been met, including optimizing green areas, vegetation, transportation facilities, accessibility, and stormwater runoff management. This study emphasizes the importance of improving these aspects to enhance the application of the green building concept at Menara Poltekkes Riau.

Abstract

Indoor air quality (IAQ) in educational laboratories is critical for safeguarding occupant health and structural integrity. Elevated CO₂ levels (>1,000 ppm) impair cognitive function and cause drowsiness, while formaldehyde (HCHO) emissions from building materials are carcinogenic (Group 1 IARC) and trigger respiratory inflammation. Total Volatile Organic Compounds (TVOCs) induce sick building syndrome through chronic exposure, damaging neurological and hepatic systems. Particulate matter poses multifaceted threats: PM₁₀ deposits in upper airways causing irritation, PM₂.₅ penetrates lung alveoli increasing cardiovascular mortality risk (WHO, 2021), and PM₁.₀ translocates to bloodstream carrying adsorbed toxins. Beyond health impacts, these pollutants degrade building systems—PM accumulation corrodes HVAC components, HCHO embrittles organic materials, and TVOCs form surface films that accelerate wear. This study quantitatively assessed IAQ in ten Poltekkes Riau laboratories against Indonesian Ministry of Health Regulation No. 48/2016 thresholds. Real-time measurements of CO₂, HCHO, TVOC, and particulate fractions (PM₁.₀/PM₂.₅/PM₁₀) were conducted under active/inactive ventilation modes. Results revealed widespread noncompliance: 80% of labs exceeded PM₂.₅/PM₁₀ limits during ventilation downtime, while microbiology and health promotion labs showed hazardous TVOC (max 1,200 µg/m³) and HCHO (max 120 ppb) concentrations. These findings demonstrate systemic IAQ failures, necessitating urgent ventilation upgrades and low-emission material retrofits to mitigate health risks and preserve building functionality.

Abstract

Harjatani Heritage Estate is a residential area located in Margatani Village, Serdang, Kramatwatu, Serang Regency. One of the main issues in this housing area is the poorly organized wastewater drainage system, caused by inadequate drainage flow in the surrounding environment, which has the potential to pollute the area with domestic wastewater. Domestic wastewater, commonly referred to as greywater, originates from household activities such as bathing, washing, and kitchen use. Waste management, both domestic and industrial, remains a serious environmental challenge in Indonesia. One alternative approach to addressing this issue is through natural wastewater management integrated into sustainable architectural planning for environmental health. This study employs a qualitative research method using observational techniques and data analysis. The analysis includes site conditions, surrounding environmental characteristics, and landscape planning as an application of sustainable architecture principles, supported by AutoCAD-based design exploration and interviews with local community representatives. The results indicate that landscape planning plays a significant role in supporting sustainable architecture as an environmentally responsive solution for domestic wastewater management.

Abstract

Traditional Banjar architecture consists of eleven recognized house types, one of which is the Tadah Alas type. This study aims to identify and examine the architectural characteristics of a Tadah Alas traditional house located in Cempaka, Banjarbaru, South Kalimantan. Visually, the house exhibits differences from the commonly recognized Tadah Alas typology, prompting further investigation to verify its conformity. The research employs a comparative method by examining the architectural elements of the Cempaka house against established Tadah Alas characteristics as defined by cultural experts. Data were analyzed descriptively through narrative explanation and visual documentation, allowing for a systematic interpretation of observed features. The findings indicate that the house generally conforms to the Tadah Alas typology, with the exception of the panampik kecil space, which features a half-octagonal form. This configuration is unique and has not been identified in other known types of traditional Banjar houses, suggesting a local variation within the Tadah Alas typology.

Abstract

Since the Dutch East Indies colonial period, Teluk Betung Sub-district has played a significant role as an economic center and has been recognized as a historic old town in Lampung. In line with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 11.4 and Bandar Lampung City Regional Regulation No. 2 of 2019, preserving the historical character of the old city amid rapid modernization requires a culturally grounded streetscape design as a key expression of urban identity. Despite this potential, Teluk Betung faces several challenges, including the erosion of Lampung cultural identity due to transmigration, as well as disorganized spatial conditions such as street vendors occupying sidewalks and illegal parking along traffic lanes. This study aims to identify existing potentials and problems and to develop a culture-based streetscape design. The research adopts the landscape planning method proposed by LaGro (2008), encompassing the stages of preparation, inventory, analysis, synthesis, and concept development. The design proposal focuses on Way Lubuk Pahoman Street, where cultural principles are translated into a streetscape landscape concept, resulting in a site plan and three-dimensional visualization incorporating Lampung Saibatin cultural motifs.

Abstract

Urban overheating and limited daylight access are persistent challenges in rapidly densifying tropical cities. This study examines the influence of urban canyon geometry—including building width-to-length ratio, corridor width, and lateral spacing—on surface temperature dynamics and daylight performance. Using Autodesk Forma, 27 building massing configurations were simulated under standardized conditions with a fixed building height of 30 meters and a footprint of 900 m². Surface temperatures were measured at corridor and rear façade points at 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., while daylight performance was assessed using sun hours and daylight potential indicators. The results indicate that compact building forms with minimal spacing exacerbate heat accumulation and restrict daylight access, whereas configurations with greater spatial permeability enhance both thermal and lighting performance. The optimal configuration featured an elongated building ratio of 1:3, a narrow corridor width of 15 meters, and wide lateral spacing of 30 meters, achieving corridor surface temperatures as low as 33°C and daylight performance values of up to 66%. Beyond its analytical findings, this study highlights the practical applicability of Autodesk Forma as an accessible and user-friendly tool for early-stage massing studies. Compared to more complex simulation platforms such as ENVI-met or CFD, Autodesk Forma enables architects and designers to conduct simple yet effective climate-responsive analyses during the initial phases of building and site design, thereby supporting sustainable urban development in tropical contexts.

Abstract

Rural landscapes in Indonesia reflect the coexistence of strong agrarian traditions and the pressing need for sustainable development, requiring approaches that integrate ecological, spatial, and socio-economic systems. Ciambar District in Sukabumi Regency, West Java, serves as a representative case study, characterized by agricultural activities such as rice, cassava, and durian cultivation, extensive forest areas, and ecotourism potential, including Curug Luhur Waterfall. Despite these assets, the district faces persistent challenges, including inadequate infrastructure, unequal access to clean water, and heavy reliance on small-scale agriculture. From the perspective of architectural sustainability, Ciambar must be re-envisioned as an integrated landscape of productive, ecological, and social spaces. Approaches such as productive landscapes, ecological infrastructure, and low-impact ecotourism demonstrate how spatial and architectural interventions can simultaneously support livelihoods, conserve ecosystems, and enhance local resilience. This study aims to identify, analyze, and map the potentials of Ciambar District based on natural resources, human capital, and local governance capacity. The findings are expected to provide a comprehensive assessment of existing strengths and opportunities, along with strategic recommendations for sustainable environmental development that supports the local economy while aligning with broader sustainability frameworks.
