Abstract

The sustainability of urban development in Medan City is greatly influenced by the availability of Green Open Space (RTH) that can support environmental quality and the quality of life of the community. Medan City, as a city with a high level of urbanization and increasing population density, faces challenges in providing sufficient green space. The mismatch between the allocation of RTH in the Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW) and the existing land use conditions, as well as the limited space for RTH development in densely populated areas, are the main factors in the decline in environmental quality. Limited RTH reduces the ability of urban ecosystems to manage air pollution, temperature, and rainwater absorption. In addition, limited RTH also has a negative impact on the physical and mental health of the community. Therefore, efforts to increase the availability of RTH need to be carried out with an approach that involves the development of vertical green spaces, small city parks, rehabilitation of abandoned spaces, and improvement of spatial planning policies. This study aims to analyze the importance of the role of RTH in the sustainability of urban area development and the solutions that can be applied to achieve it, in order to create a greener, healthier, and more sustainable city environment.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the suitability of Green Open Space (RTH) land in Medan City based on the established Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW). Along with the rapid development of urbanization, land conversion, and increasing space needs in urban areas, Medan City faces challenges in maintaining and allocating RTH according to applicable standards. In this study, an analysis of land distribution in various sub-districts in Medan City was conducted to identify the suitability between the existing RTH area and the provisions of the RTRW. Data is processed using Geographic Information System (GIS) technology to produce accurate spatial visualization related to RTH allocation. The results of the study show that several sub-districts have green open space areas that are still below the standards set in the RTRW. Factors contributing to this mismatch include urbanization pressure, land conversion for industrial and residential purposes, and lack of supervision in the implementation of the RTRW. To address this problem, the study recommends strategies to increase green open space suitability through strengthening regulations, utilizing GIS technology for land monitoring, incentives for land owners, multi-sector collaboration, and adaptive RTRW revisions. With the implementation of this strategy, it is hoped that Medan City can improve the suitability of green open space according to the RTRW, which not only provides ecological benefits, but also supports sustainable urban development and improves the quality of life of the community.

This city is experiencing rapid growth, so the need for efficient and reliable transportation facilities is increasing. There are two main roads in Pematangsiantar City, namely Sutomo Street and Merdeka Street, Sutomo Street and Merdeka Street are supported by trade and service activities on both sides of the road. Transportation readiness is one of the main supporters of the development of every city. Sutomo and Merdeka Street are roads located in the center of Pematangsiantar City which in terms of land function is a trade and service area. The problems on these roads are very dense and irregular economic activities, inadequate transportation and infrastructure, and the behavior of road users who park carelessly. The capacity and performance of Sutomo and Merdeka Streets, transportation activities on these roads are very hampered due to irregular parking and inadequate road capacity. The performance of Sutomo and Merdeka Streets is classified as very high so that the ability to accommodate traffic flow through both roads is low. To address these issues, it is necessary to conduct a study and build a parking building to reduce obstacles on both roads, and traffic engineering is needed so that passing vehicles do not pile up on both roads.

Abstract

For optimal land use planning, an in-depth analysis of the land to be planned is needed so that the appropriate function can be determined. One of the analyses that needs to be done is the Land Capability Unit (SKL) analysis, which is a structured analysis that considers various physical aspects of the environment in determining land capability. Land Capability Unit (SKL) analysis must be applied in every preparation of a spatial utilization plan so that the utilization plan is not risky for both planning and nature. Land Capability Unit Analysis is carried out using the superimpose/Overlay method which utilizes the ArcGis application. South Nias Regency is a regency area that is divided into many islands with diverse surface morphologies, ranging from very steep to flat surfaces. So in planning land use in South Nias Regency, a structured physical analysis must be carried out so that a land use plan can be determined based on its land capability which is determined based on several aspects considered in the Land Capability Unit analysis process in South Nias Regency. From the results of the analysis that has been carried out, it was found that in South Nias Regency there is land with high capacity covering an area of 44,280.1 Ha or around 17.5 percent and land with very high capacity covering an area of 134,769.8 or around 53.2 percent of the total area of South Nias Regency.

Abstract

Spatial planning is a structured planning from various considerations of analysis and projection results so as to produce concrete planning to be used as a reference in effective, efficient and sustainable spatial utilization. Emergency or urgent conditions such as disasters, conflicts, strategic projection development and so on that require an existing residential area to be relocated, then the handling has the potential to be inconsistent with spatial planning. Placement of relocation areas is often directed at land with the status "Available" without having to ensure its status "In accordance" with the spatial plan. This study was conducted to find land that is available and in accordance with the spatial plan as a potential area for relocation of residential areas. This study is a quantitative study with the superimpose analysis method, namely carrying out a spatial overlap process on the variables (Disaster Prone, Land Capability Unit, Spatial Pattern Plan, Existing Land Cover and Land Legality Status) that have been determined. From the results of the research that has been carried out, there is land that is suitable to be used as a relocation area112,161.6 hectares. However, based on the availability of land ownership legality data, Simalungun Regency has 6 locations to be used as alternatives for relocation of residential areas with a total area of 20.68 hectares. For greater needs in the future, land with an area of 112,161.6 hectares can be used as an alternative.

Abstract

The development of a region is greatly influenced by the development of settlements to accommodate the population in the region. Settlement problems often occur due to lack of settlement development planning, resulting in a decline in the quality of settlements. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct an analysis of settlement development. This study was conducted in the scope of Karo Regency which aims to analyze potential land to be used as a settlement area in Karo Regency. The approach used in this study is descriptive qualitative using the superimpose analysis method (overlay) and SWOT analysis. The superimpose method is carried out by overlaying a physical map of the region, and areas that have the potential to be protected. So that it produces a direction for the potential development of the settlement area. The research results show that the limited area of 128,127.81 hectares can be pushed into protected areas and agricultural areas,The constraint area of 44,812.12 Ha is a constraint area that can be developed in a limited way as residential development, and the potential area of 45,791.61 Ha is a potential area that is highly recommended as land for built-up or residential development.

Abstract

Traditional construction techniques in Srinagar, particularly Dhajji Dewari and Taq, exhibit remarkable seismic resilience due to their modular and energy-dissipating properties. However, these structures remain vulnerable to high-intensity seismic forces due to material degradation, lack of standardized retrofitting techniques, and evolving urbanization patterns. This review consolidates existing research on the seismic performance of traditional dwellings in Srinagar, highlighting the need for innovative retrofitting strategies. A comparative analysis with modern seismic-resistant designs is conducted to emphasize the strengths and limitations of traditional methods. The study identifies the absence of standardized retrofitting frameworks as a crucial research gap, necessitating collaborative efforts among engineers, policymakers, and conservationists. By integrating traditional knowledge with modern engineering paradigms, a sustainable approach to seismic risk mitigation in heritage-rich regions is proposed.
