Abstract

Building is of a high degree of statically indeterminacy and should be designed with strict requirement on stability, load combinations, aseismic measures and so on. And in some cases, designers tend to decide dimensions and reinforcement over standards intentionally. Thus, seismic capacity exceeds standard required to design Stage in the well-operated structure abided by design code. This results in considering the problem of over-strength of buildings with high requirement of seismic demand and economic efficiency. In this paper, we decided the minimum value of over-strength factor of RC shear wall structure with evaluating the over-strength designed strictly according to Design Code of DPRK.

Abstract

Humid tropical climates are areas with high humidity temperature characteristics. This high temperature is partly due to sunlight which is always constant throughout the day, while high humidity is usually associated with relatively high rainfall. Because of this, in general, buildings in this area have a fairly wide canopy or what is often referred to as a shading element in architecture. This will ultimately affect the thermal comfort of buildings in the humid tropics. In this study the authors tried to look at the two main factors that shape thermal comfort, namely the level of temperature and humidity. The author will compare three types of outdoor spaces, namely sheltered outdoor spaces with walls on one side, shaded rooms without walls and outdoor spaces without shade. The research was conducted by measuring temperature and humidity simultaneously at the three locations. Measurements were carried out for two weeks, at five different times with an interval of two hours. The results obtained show that there are significant differences in temperature and humidity between open spaces and shaded spaces. Where the shaded room has lower temperature and humidity. As for other shaded rooms, it is known that shaded rooms without walls have lower temperature and humidity.

Abstract

In Indonesia, institutions of education continue to behind places of amusement in terms of correlation. A museum is a structure that houses exhibits of historical, artistic, scientific, and antiquarian items. A timeline of actual past events makes up history. Museum tours don't operate like museums do generally in Tanjung Pura. According to survey findings at the Regional Museum, only 60 people visited the museum in the first half of 2020, commencing in June. The Langkat Regional Museum has a number of issues, including a front that appears to have been less recently maintained. The museum's space is too small, giving the sensation of being crowded within. The museum's layout for collections and rooms is disorganized. A venue for public education on history, particularly the history of the Langkat Sultanate, is what this design aims to give. Applying the topic of Malay Neo Vernacular Architecture, revitalize the area with new concepts and a new mood so that it becomes a practical, sensible, and receptive component of people and the environment. Additionally, building a museum space that can preserve the Malay Sultanate of Langkat's cultural legacy. Finally, fostering affection and compassion for the neighborhood's rich cultural legacy. It is intended that by renewing the Langkat Regional Museum, which carries the topic of Neo-Vernacular Malay Architecture, it will be able to reclaim its role as a tool and infrastructure for teaching in public areas. in order to promote Malay culture and historical legacy from the Sultanate of Langkat as a tourist destination.

Abstract

Abstract. The existence of coastal areas appears to be overlooked and undervalued. A place that should have good qualities and potential has turned into a slum, with a lot of rubbish, ill inhabitants, and a poor socioeconomic level. The Sebrang Belawan Fisherman's Village in Medan is one of the coastal instances. Every year, the average number of residents grows, causing the neighborhood to become increasingly slum due to its lack of organization. Through the utilization of natural energy and community empowerment in the principles of Green Architecture, the coastal area should be a location for public space that may revive the existence and distinctive culture of the fishing village community. As a result of some of these factors, project planning in this area is undergoing the process of developing Belawan's coastal area using a green architecture strategy as a solution to the difficulties that exist in this area. The significance of Green Architecture as a strategy for creating environmentally-friendly public spaces and other supporting structures in order to address issues such as slums, garbage, and a community's low economic status. As a result, this region will show a well-kept village, a vacation destination, and a place with significance in the local community and beyond.

Abstract

Currently in Indonesia a lot of construction work and concrete is one that is widely used. In the development of concrete construction technology, especially in Indonesia, it is necessary to have concrete capable of carrying high loads using available materials. The development of high quality concrete has 3 levels, namely High Strength Concrete (HSC), High Performance Concrete (HPC) and Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC). Against the background of future needs, in this study experiments were carried out in a concrete laboratory to obtain high performance concrete mixes with local materials. At the experimental stage, testing of tools and materials, concrete mix, casting, slump test, manufacture of specimens, maintenance, checking of unit weight, compressive strength test, split tensile strength and modulus of elasticity was carried out. In that study there were 11 variations. Furthermore, the test results were analyzed by the data to draw conclusions. The results showed that the average compressive strength of concrete at 3 days of age was relatively high, namely 53.8 MPa which could be used for fast precision work. In variation 11 mixture (PCC Cement, Silica Fume, Sand Mesh 35-60, Silica Mesh 325, Water, Viscocrete Superplasticizer 8670 MN, Fly Ash 7% and Polypropylene Fiber 0.2%) tested for 28 days, the compressive strength reached 87.5 MPa, so it can be said as HPC concrete. In this study it was concluded that the use of local materials, Sinabung Volcanic Ash waste and fly ash can improve the quality of concrete and can also reduce environmental pollution.
