Abstract

Transport governance has become an increasingly significant aspect of transport research. In urban areas, the institutional problems become more complex since they involve actors across administrative regions, not to mention institutional fragmentation, where actors need to have the capabilities to build good coordination between institutions. In addition, Indonesia currently has weak institutional capacity in public transportation planning and policy. This can hinder the development of effective and efficient public transportation. This paper elaborates on the complexities of public transportation planning in the Yogyakarta Urbanized Area (YUA) by unraveling the distribution of responsibilities and coordination mechanisms across governance levels. To fulfill this objective, we conduct interviews with policy-makers and stakeholders involved in public transport policy-making. Unclear roles, limited financial and human resources, and the lack of a clear institution responsible for public transport arrangements within YUA are constraints to achieving successful public transport planning in YUA. However, YUA has a typical polycentric governance system involving multiple actors in the public transport policy-making process, aggravating the coordination problem in various horizontal and vertical networks between actors.

Abstract

Batik industry, the largest generator of income, has a significant role in the economic development of Pekalongan City. According to data from the Pekalongan City Department of Industry and Labor, there are roughly 863 batik companies in Pekalongan. However, the environmental concerns raised by the industries are equally alarming. Lack of communal batik waste treatment (IPAL) with sufficient requirements causes water contamination, odors, filth, and other pollution problems in some parts of the city. There is also a lack of comprehensive tourism programs from the government that can sustain momentum in the tourism sector. This research focuses on analyzing Pekalongan City Government policies using SWOT analysis to identify vital factors to improve strategies for future optimization. The analysis results are subsequently put within the built environment framework using the design by research method to generate design strategies to improve built environment quality. These strategies were then implemented in the Kauman Batik Tourism Village case study through building arrangements, zoning, circulation arrangements, and proposed policies for community engagement to encourage more sustainable growth.

Abstract

Housing is one of the basic human needs that is dynamic and more than just a place to shelter, so changes based on needs are inevitable. In the house, spatial organization often changes so that it transforms, especially in traditional Joglo houses that face pragmatic changes or still follow traditional values. A qualitative research approach was conducted using the observation method, combined with in-depth interviews, and integrated with Maslow's hierarchy of needs theory. Maslow divides the needs into five levels. Therefore, it is essential to understand changes in spatial and household needs. In this study, we found five cases of Joglo houses, spaces used for commercial activities economically tend to come from esteem and self-actualization needs; another five Joglo houses with spaces used as a place for social and cultural activities; based on belonging, esteem needs, and self-actualization; and another two Joglo houses that have spaces transformed and or converted into personal spaces based on fundamental and safety needs. Our findings show that spatial had altered based on user needs in a bottom-up and reciprocal manner. This can be demonstrated by the absence of massive facades and spatial layout changes, which still maintain spaces that are considered essential, such as senthong, gandhok, and pendhapa. Spatial transformation is also influenced by the capabilities and background of Joglo house owners, who mostly have businesses and or come from respected families to maintain the legacy of Joglo houses and make the house a residence and a symbol of prosperity and well-being. In addition, with spatial transformation, Joglo houses can still meet the needs of users/residents to the level of self-actualization. This study offers a new perspective on combining a hierarchy of needs and spatial transformation, specifically in joglo traditional houses.

Abstract

The Indonesian government wants to meet the demand for housing by increasing housing development. However, the increase in housing development also contributes to a large percentage of carbon emissions. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC), a commonly used wall material, and precast sandwich panels (PSP), which have low emissions. The research was conducted to determine how the two materials compare prices to meet housing needs and emission reduction goals. The study is carried out by its price to meet the demand target and Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to meet the emission reduction target. The subject of the study is one of a complex of 40 types of house buildings. Their wall construction cost and transportation cost determine the price. LCA approached the method with a cradle-to-handover framework, which is used to identify the carbon embodiment of a building. The results show that PSP walls cost 53.30% more to build than AAC walls but produce 37.20% less carbon emissions. The highest emissions occur during the production/manufacturing phase. Future studies could adopt a cradle-to-grave LCA framework to provide a more comprehensive assessment.

Abstract

Improving environmental quality in architectural design is crucial in energy efficiency, health, and comfort, directly impacting occupant productivity. In tropical regions, high exposure to solar radiation significantly contributes to increased energy consumption in the building sector, accounting for 36% of total global energy usage. Shading devices are employed as a passive strategy to minimize solar heat gain, maintain thermal comfort, and evenly distribute natural light, reducing reliance on artificial lighting. This study analyzes the impact of different louver types on daylight optimization in shading devices, designed with the same module across various scenarios (louvers at ∠90°, ∠45°, and ∠150°). The research methodology involves computational simulations based on BIM, using Autodesk Revit for prototype modeling, parameter determination, scenario setup, and the Insight Plugin for simulating daylight illuminance (lux) and daylight factor (DF). The results show that the shading device with a 90° louver angle performs optimally in meeting the daylight illuminance standard (300–3000 lux) across various representative dates, achieving a daylight factor (DF) of 3.2%, in line with global standards. The louver angle significantly influences the overall distribution of natural light. This study's limitation is its focus on a single location (Surabaya) and its restriction to three shading device scenarios.

Abstract

The construction sector's reliance on non-renewable energy sources affects the sustainability of the world's energy supply. Household electrical energy consumption is one of the main factors contributing to Indonesia's electricity consumption; hence, the residential typology is researched for energy efficiency. This study aims to analyze the variations of window-to-wall ratio (WWR) effect on electrical energy consumption in developing type 55 houses in Sleman, DIY. Several WWR percentage scenarios were created to determine the most effective value for improving building energy efficiency. This research was conducted with the quantitative method using the Building Information Modeling (BIM) simulation through Autodesk Revit software and the Green Building Studio (GBS) plugin. According to the research, WWR impacts buildings' electrical energy usage, particularly for HVAC systems, with a range of around 41% to 52% usage. Alternative scenarios with lower WWR can reduce annual electrical energy consumption and specific energy use intensity (EUI) values. In addition, a 5.8% savings in electricity costs can be obtained with the lowest WWR scenario. Thus, it can be concluded that variations of WWR affect electrical energy consumption and costs in residential buildings.

Abstract

Vernacular architecture critically reflects a community's cultural heritage, social structure, and economic dynamics. In Kampung Inggris Pare, Kediri, the architectural landscape has evolved alongside the village’s transformation into a prominent language learning hub. This paper explores how vernacular architecture embodies local traditions, facilitates social interactions, and adapts to economic shifts driven by the growth of language course institutions. The study addresses key questions: How does architecture in Kampung Inggris reflect cultural identity and tradition? How does it shape social dynamics and relationships? How has economic development influenced architectural evolution? What challenges does modernization pose to preserving cultural heritage? This research uses a qualitative literature study to analyze secondary data from academic journals, books, and reports on architecture, social dynamics, and economic changes in Kampung Inggris. Content analysis and preliminary ethnographic study were employed to identify patterns in architectural design, community engagement, and economic transformation. Findings reveal that vernacular architecture in Kampung Inggris integrates cultural symbols and reflects traditional Javanese cosmology, reinforcing community identity. Communal spaces within the architectural layout promote interaction and collaboration, fostering a sense of belonging among residents and visitors. However, economic growth, driven by the proliferation of language courses, has led to structural adaptations that accommodate businesses and students, raising land values and entrepreneurial opportunities. Conversely, modernization threatens to overshadow traditional architectural elements, risking cultural identity loss. This study concludes that a balanced approach to modernization and heritage preservation is essential to sustain Kampung Inggris' unique architectural identity while supporting its economic vitality.

Abstract

The enactment of Law Number 7 of 2002 concerning the Establishment of Penajam Paser Utara (PPU) Regency marked the official formation of this new administrative region, resulting from the separation of four sub-districts from the original twelve in Paser Regency. As a newly established regency, PPU required immediate development in institutional structures, government infrastructure, and development planning. A key indicator of progress lies in healthcare facility improvements, which were previously difficult to access due to reliance on water transport to Balikpapan or Paser. This study aims to analyze healthcare service development in PPU and assess how regional expansion has influenced service effectiveness. The research compares conditions before and after the expansion using a deductive qualitative approach, triangulation, and descriptive methods. Findings indicate that while the number of healthcare facilities declined, service utilization became more efficient, travel distances were reduced, and quality improved. Effective health service delivery depends on availability, accessibility, and continuity. While regional expansion positively affected specific dimensions, its most decisive influence was improved interaction between health workers and patients, disease prevention, and public health education.

Abstract

A house is a basic need that ideally fulfills the aspects of comfort, health, and safety. However, subsidized houses that are built still have constraints in terms of space limitations and material specifications. So it often cannot optimally accommodate the needs of residents. This research aims to identify factors influencing residents' decisions to renovate subsidized houses in Sleman Regency, with case studies of Godean Jogja Hills and Griya Moyudan Asri housing. This research used a descriptive qualitative approach through closed questions and semi-structured interviews. The results showed that space requirements were the main factor driving renovations at 56.97%, followed by comfort reasons and perceptions of insufficient house area. The types of space most added include kitchens and terraces. This research contributes to understanding the dynamics of residents' adaptation to the limitations of the initial design of subsidized houses. It was found that developers and the government need to be considered in designing subsidized housing, which is more flexible, sustainable, and meets the long-term needs of low-income communities.

Abstract

Subsidized housing in Indonesia is often built with limited consideration for thermal comfort, prompting many residents to rely on air conditioning, which increases energy consumption. One of the factors that influences indoor thermal conditions is the Window-to-Wall Ratio (WWR), which determines how much sunlight and airflow can enter the space. This study explores how different WWR values affect the thermal performance of two subsidized housing types in Godean, Sleman—Griya Moyudan Asri and Godean Jogja Hills. Using quantitative analysis and simulation methods, temperature data were compared across existing conditions and adjusted WWR values of 10%, 20%, and 30%. The findings reveal that an increased WWR tends to elevate indoor temperatures, particularly during periods of high solar intensity. On the other hand, WWR values between 10% and 20% provide more consistent indoor temperatures and improve energy efficiency by reducing dependence on mechanical cooling. These results highlight the potential of passive design strategies, including optimal window sizing, pivot hinges, and effective shading, to enhance thermal comfort in tropical climates.
