Abstract

Children are our future that need to be taken cacer of. Their number one activity is studying at school. For them to bea able to dostudying effectively, school must provide architectural facilities which are able to accommodate children’s comfort as the main building user. But around, we still see so many children’s facilities, especially schools, that haven’t considered chidren’s anthropometric dimension in their design process, hence their inability to accommodate children’s comfort in doing their activities effectively. Because of those facts, the researcher decided to do research regarding ergonomic comfort based on children’s anthropometric dimension. The chosen case study is SDN Ulujami 02. The research method is descriptive quantitative, where the measuring process is described in diagrams and paragraphs. Afetr analyzing process is done, it is concluded that there are two research variables that are considered comfortable; and one research variable is quite comfortable.

Abstract

In general, injuries have been related to different elements and parts of the home environment. That is home injury is potentially connected with primary parts of the home environment. Home wounds might result from different, simultaneous and united causes including physical, underlying, environmental, conduct, way of life, and social variables. Home injury depicts the sorts of injuries that happen in the home and its prompt environmental elements. This study examined housing elements and potential home injury risks in selected public housing estates in Lagos State, Nigeria with a view to informing design decisions for safer housing. This study aims to explore the housing elements—both architectural and environmental—that may contribute to home injury risks in selected public housing estates in Lagos State. By identifying key risk factors, the study hopes to inform policy interventions and promote safer residential environments. Systematic sampling method was employed to select 315 housing units from 8938 units in 3 purposively selected low-income estates (the largest) for questionnaire administration. Ethical approval and clearance were sought from a recognized research ethics review board/committee. Informed consent will be obtained from all participants and confidentiality and anonymity will be strictly maintained. Findings revealed that housing plays a critical role in public health and wellbeing, especially in rapidly urbanizing cities like Lagos, Nigeria. While public housing estates are established to provide affordable shelter, poor design, substandard construction, and inadequate maintenance may contribute to unintentional injuries at home. Injuries such as falls, burns, electric shocks, and poisoning often go underreported, especially in low-income communities, yet they significantly affect quality of life and productivity. The study recommended Policy and Planning (Integrating injury prevention into housing design standards); Maintenance Protocols (Regular inspections and quick repairs); Community Education (workshops on home safety) and Design Improvements (Use of non-slip materials, better lighting, child-proofing measures. The study concluded by emphasizing the link between poor housing design/maintenance and injury risk, and highlights the need for government and stakeholders to prioritize safe, habitable housing.

Abstract

The study examined the interface problems in construction project stages among professionals in Lagos State, Nigeria. Primary information was obtained through structured questionnaire. The target population were construction professionals who had experienced interface problems at both the design and construction stages of projects in Lagos State. A total of two hundred and sixty (260) copies of completed questionnaire were retrieved through online and physical administration using snowball sampling technique for selection of respondents. Data were analyzed using exploratory factor analysis, confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation modelling. Findings revealed that the interface problems at the design stage are; inadequate specification of project data, problem of spotting component clashes at the beginning of design phase, difficulty in obtaining complete project documents leading to late issuance of some designs, design complexity, badly written contract documents, and too many adjustments whenever there is changes in designs while inadequate specialized quality-control team, serious doubting and ambiguity of interface conflicts, lack of system informing about new project data, bad value of construction, complicated construction process, incapability to forecast and bring resolution to challenges connected to new construction technological methods, financial and technical status of the constructor, poor communication among project team members and change based on instruction or command are the interface problems at the construction stage.

Abstract

The concept of biophilia is widely recognized as a way to reconnect humans with the natural environment, based on the understanding that humans are inherently part of nature. Studies have shown that this reconnection can have positive effects, including improved mood. Among school children, this benefit is often reflected in better academic performance. In architecture, the integration of natural elements is commonly linked to biophilic concepts and design patterns. This literature review examines studies conducted across various fields between 2014 and 2024. The final analysis presents methods and key findings of these studies, identifies existing research gaps, and highlights potential directions for future research in architecture.

Abstract

Kota Kupang merupakan salah satu kota di Indonesia yang memiliki luas wilayah 152,59 km2 dengan 6 kecamatan, dan 51 kelurahan. Berdasarkan data dari Badan Pusat Statistik Kota Kupang, jumlah penduduk Kota Kupang pada 2024 mencapai 466,63 jiwa (BPS Kota Kupang, 2024). Kota Kupang merupakan Ibu Kota Nusa Tenggara Timur, Indonesia yang terletak di pesisir Teluk Kupang, bagian barat laut Pulau Timor dan Juga merupakan Kota yang terbesar di Pulau timor. Kota kupang saat ini mengalami perkembangan pembangunan yang pesat diberbagai sektor terutama dalam dalam sektor perekonomian. Hal ini berdampak pada semakin padat arus lalu lintas di kota Kupang. Kota Kupang sebagai ibu kota NTT mengalami pertumbuhan pesat di berbagai sektor, terutama ekonomi. Pertumbuhan ini meningkatkan volume kendaraan dan menyebabkan kemacetan, khususnya di ruas-ruas utama, jalan Jenderal Sudirman menjadi titik kemacetan utama akibat parkir kendaraan di badan jalan dan aktivitas pertokoan/perkantoran. Kondisi ini menurunkan kapasitas dan pelayanan jalan, serta menghambat arus lalu lintas. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan evaluasi kinerja jalan terkait dampak parkir di badan jalan. Di Kota Kupang khususnya Jalan Jenderal Sudirman menjadi salah satu jalan yang sering mengalami kemacetan lalu lintas, terutama pada jam sibuk. Tingginya tingkat kepadatan lalu lintas pada ruas jalan tersebut diakibatkan oleh kendaraan ringan maupun berat, dan sepeda motor yang parkir di badan jalan, dan berhenti di badan jalan pada jam masuk dan pulang kantor, dan juga akibat adanya aktivitas pertokoan yang mengakibatkan kendaraan parkir di badan jalan, sehingga lebar jalan yang digunakan sebagai tempat parkir mengakibatkan menurunnya kemampuan ruas jalan tersebut dengan kata lain menurunnya tingkat pelayanan dan kapasitas ruas jalan tersebut. Pengendalian parkir pada ruas jalan merupakan hal yang penting dilakukan untuk mengontrol arus lalu lintas yang terjadi pada suatu ruas jalan, agar kemacetan yang sering terjadi dapat diminimalisir. Untuk lokasi dilakukannya penelitian tepatnya pada ruas jalan Jenderal Sudirman depan Master Cell Kuanino sampai Bank Central Pitoby.

Abstract

Cassava (Manihot esculenta) remains a key staple crop in Nigeria, yet its post-harvest processing continues to face inefficiencies due to manual methods. This study aimed to design, fabricate, and evaluate the performance of a cassava mash pulverizing-cum-sieving machine to address issues of human drudgery, low throughput, and contamination. The machine comprises a hopper, pulverizing chamber, rotary sieve, electric motor, and support frame. Operational testing was carried out at three speeds: 400, 500, and 600 rpm. Results indicated improved sifting efficiency and capacity, with design parameters tailored for durability, portability, and simplicity. This dual-purpose machine demonstrates potential for local cassava processors in Nigeria to enhance productivity and product quality.
