One important aspect of hospital buildings is the safety of the occurrence of fire hazards, especially in the fire stairs. The hospital is classified as very crowded because of the large number of inpatients or outpatients who consult at the Malahayati Islamic Hospital or the University of North Sumatra Hospital, both middle and upper-middle class. Because the density level of occupants in hospital buildings is high, it requires a fire ladder that meets the standards, how to apply the fire ladder reliability system and its future recommendations on the Malahayati Islamic Hospital building and the University of North Sumatra Hospital. This study aims to determine the application and analyze the level of reliability of fire stairs in hospital buildings. This study uses data analysis method, namely AHP (Analytical Hierarchy Process) which is based on very effective research to help solve problems in the fire stairs reliability system in the case study of the Islamic Hospital Malahayati, the level of reliability is sufficient, while the University of North Sumatra Hospital has a very good level of reliability. Several design recommendations were made and tested to increase the reliability of fire stairs at Malahayati Islamic Hospital and the University of North Sumatra Hospital; the results can be improved.

Hotel is a public living facility for tourists by providing room services, food and beverage providers, and accommodation with payment terms. Fire is a flame, both small and large, which is usually hard to control and detrimental and can occur in a place that we do not expect. Ensuring the protection of hotel residents is one of the goals of hotel business standards. Grand Kanaya Hotel is a 3-star hotel building in the city of Medan, with 152 units of rooms and several facilities that enable activities involving large numbers of people, such as restaurants and ballrooms. According to the quite high number of occupants, Grand Kanaya Hotel requires a fire protection system that can protect all hotel residents against fire hazards. The study aims to evaluate the fire protection system that has been applied to the building of the Grand Kanaya Hotel and provide references for fire protection systems that are standard in hotel buildings. This research is using the qualitative method that obtains from field observation and uses a type of descriptive research that explains the facts or existing conditions of fire protection systems in the Grand Kanaya Hotel building. The results show that there are several fire protection systems in Grand Kanaya Hotels that not according to the standards, such as the minimum size, the material used is not resistant to fire, and maximum distance lies, which still exceeds the maximum value. The study results are useful as information for other researchers and hotels regarding fire protection systems at the Grand Kanaya Hotel building.

Indonesian’s nature has a combination of a tropical climate and is the largest and most island nation in the world. Indonesia also has many natural tourism sites that are already well-known abroad. One of them is Lake Toba. Lake Toba is the largest and deepest lake in Southeast Asia. These tourist attractions are also supported by a cultural heritage that is rich with many tribes and customs that spread throughout Indonesia. Resort hotels are one of the supporting facilities in the tourist area. The design of the Tongging resort hotel raises the theme of neo vernacular. The problem posed was "How to design Resort Hotels using the neo-vernacular architectural approach?". Using the neo-vernacular school aims to arouse the culture and customs of the environment. Because we know the Tongging area is a Batak tribe area, which is a very thick tribe with traditions and customs. The resort hotel design Tongging is designed using ornamentation and formations, which are more directed to the Siwaluh Jabu traditional house by using qualitative methods because it is rational and planned precisely with the location of the site. Tongging resort hotel can be a resort hotel that does not leave the local culture and can become an icon in the hope that it can still preserve the existing customs or culture.

Lake Toba is the largest lake in Indonesia, even in Southeast Asia. Lake Toba has excellent potential as a tourism area development in North Sumatra. On the outskirts of Lake Toba, especially Paropo, there are still many who do not have facilities for tourists, the large number of tourists who come to Paropo causes the Paropo area to need supporting facilities such as resort hotels as supporters of North Sumatra tourism development. Resort hotels are hotels located in tourist attractions, such as mountains, beaches, and lakes. The design of the Paropo resort hotel applies the Neo vernacular architectural concept. The problem with this design is "how to apply the neo vernacular architectural concept to the design of a resort hotel." The purpose of applying the concept of Neo vernacular architecture in buildings is one of the efforts so that it is inseparable from the surrounding culture and can also introduce regional culture to the tourists who come. Designing this resort hotel uses qualitative methods. This resort hotel brings the theme of Neo vernacular architecture that combines traditional Dairi/Pak-Pak architecture with modern architecture, where physical elements are applied/changed but also non-physical items such as cultural values, mindset, beliefs, layout, religion, etc. into the form of buildings and site design. The benefit of designing this resort hotel is the creation of resort hotels that can still preserve the elements of local culture with a layer of modernization and, if built, can develop the tourism area of Paropo to attract tourists.
