Abstract

Globally, the majority of individuals spend 90 percent of their daily routine time indoors. Outside air pollution adds to the toxins created in interior spaces owing to heating and cooling, which has a substantial impact on person healthiness (illness that results in mortality and morbidity) and productiveness. This study investigates the implications of air pollution on interior air quality in commercial buildings such as event centres in Kogi State, Nigeria. Descriptive research approach was used with a questionnaire administered to 120 participants chosen through a random sampling procedure in business buildings. Findings indicated that inadequate window and tiny door size, including absence of mechanical cooling devices linked favourably with higher temperature in the interior but negatively with its moistness. The results show that indoor air quality has negatively impacted on the workforce performance and productivity of the customers, and also on the efficiency of their activities in the event centres. Implication for practice is that designs of apertures should be large enough to allow for cross ventilation while mechanical cooling systems should be included in the design for optimal interior air quality. The study recommends synergistic interventions from academics, policymakers, and occupational practitioners to improve national standard and its implementation for the management and regulation of indoor air quality in inside settings in Nigeria

Abstract

Thermal comfort is something that must be considered in a building to create comfort for its users. One of the factors that influence thermal conditions is the orientation of the building towards the sun and building materials. The Museum Perkebunan Indonesia is one of the famous and oldest museums in Medan, Indonesia. Besides that, the museum still has the dutch colonial architecture style, which is mostly known as a building with good air circulation because of the amount of ventilation and window they have. Based on that, this study aims to measure the thermal comfort of each room with a different orientation in Museum Perkebunan Indonesia and then to examine the effect of thermal comfort in Museum Perkebunan Indonesia. Moreover, the study also discusses the material used in Museum Perkebunan Indonesia building. The methodology of this study is qualitative-descriptive by solving the existing problems based on quantitative data that is done by the measurement of air temperature that was carried out for six different days, starting from morning to evening. Furthermore, the study also analyses and describes the object research. The analysis itself shows that the orientation effect has a significant effect compared to the influence of building materials on the museum building. And the result of the analysis shows that Museum Perkebunan Indonesia Building falls into the uncomfortable category according to the Standard Procedure for Planning Energy Conservation in Buildings.

Abstract

Binjai is one of the National Centers for Activities (PKN) and includes in the National Strategic Urban Area of ​​MeBiDangRo. While based on RPI2JM 2015-2019, there are fifteen ethnicities in Binjai. This diversity is undoubtedly a capital in developing its traditional arts and culture. However, based on the GRDP, the arts industry has not yet become a source of income, so this research purposes on how to design a better performing arts building and how to apply tropical architecture to the design as support, facilities, and awards for activists and performing arts enthusiasts as a source of income from the tourism sector. The research stage begins with determining the design location, considering the elements and requirements, collecting data, and analyzing data to produce a design concept. Binjai has a tropical climate, so Binjai Performing Arts Building adapts a tropical architectural approach where thermal comfort, air circulation, and the use of materials are selected properly such as maximizing many openings to support air circulation and lighting, using overstacks and secondary skin as an aesthetic shading, and minimizing solar heat radiation into the building. Moreover, this research produces a proportional design for a Performing Arts Building.

Abstract

The ocean is home to many kinds of aquatic species. The state of the sea is currently on the verge of declining because of the waste thrown into it. There has to be a sanctuary to retain the population of the sea animals, such as the aquarium facility. This facility will also inform the public—especially children—about the kinds of species still available today, just like a zoo. With the functionalism architecture approach, the facility is expected to be durable in the long run and more accessible since everything is based on function. This study uses qualitative methods, meaning all the precedents data are from comparative studies, field studies (surveying the site), and theories from books. The result of this study is the implementation of Functionalism Architecture that prioritized usability in the design of edutainment aquarium buildings. Projects with similar functions or methods can use this study as a precedent

Abstract

Nias tribe has a variety of cultures that are the heritage of their ancestors. One of them is the belief in cosmologists, namely that the world is divided into the underworld and the upper world. This cosmological conception was applied to the design of cultural parks in Nias. The goal is to create a cultural park architecture that can reflect the art and culture of Nias itself. Cosmological concepts in this design are applied from selecting building sites that are a more macro thing to the organization of space, forming the mass of buildings, to building materials that are more micro things. The data collection method used is a qualitative descriptive method. This cultural park will be one of the cultural preservation containers that can characterize the richness of Nias culture from the image of its architecture.

Abstract

Rising sea levels are essential issues due to global warming increasing every year. This leads to the potential for the amount of land to be reduced. One of the areas in Medan that is directly adjacent to the water is Belawan Subdistrict. Based on the data observation of water level in the Belawan sub-district, there is a significant level change every year. Some areas in the coastal area of Belawan have the possibility of drowning. To overcome this, Smart Floating Village is designed as a floating settlement in the future. The method used to solve this design problem is through observation, literature studies, and precedent studies of similar projects that have been built. The analysis and study results obtained a large pontoon structure (VLFS) as the module's base used for floating settlements. Settlements based on large pontoon structure modules can have various activities such as housing and other community needs facilities. The Smart Village concept is also applied to this design to eliminate the perception of the slum environment in coastal residential areas. To connect the idea of a smart village and floating settlements, an ecological architecture approach is needed to maintain a balance between humans and the environment. This research is expected to be a further discussion study for further research on floating settlements that apply the innovative village concept and can be helpful in architectural science regarding case studies and similar approaches.
