Abstract

Changes in building functions in urban areas have become an inevitable phenomenon, especially in developing cities such as Binjai City. This study aims to analyze the factors influencing building function changes in the area, using a Mixed Methods approach that combines quantitative analysis through multiple linear regression and qualitative documentation based on field observations. Four independent variables were examined: inconsistency with the Spatial Plan (RTRW), accessibility, economic motivation, and law enforcement.The results show that economic motivation and accessibility have a significant influence on building function changes. Meanwhile, the variables of RTRW inconsistency and weak law enforcement did not show statistically significant effects. These findings are supported by visual field evidence indicating a massive conversion of building functions without effective spatial planning control. Photographic documentation reveals a tendency among the community to adapt building functions for economic activities in strategically accessible areas.The study concludes that building function changes in Binjai City are driven by economic needs and urban spatial dynamics that are not matched by supervision and enforcement of spatial planning regulations. Recommendations include strengthening spatial supervision, providing socio-economic-based incentives, simplifying permit processes, and implementing community-based public education. This research offers valuable contributions to adaptive urban planning while upholding the principles of spatial order and community aspirations.

Abstract

Mursala Island is one of the potential coastal tourism areas in Central Tapanuli Regency, known for its natural uniqueness and rich local culture. However, tourism development in this area re-mains unstructured and unsustainable. This study aims to analyze the current conditions, infrastructure readiness, accessibility, community participation, and the level of local socio-cultural resilience toward tourism in order to formulate strategies for sustainable coastal tourism development. A mixed-methods approach was employed, with primary data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and a questionnaire distributed to 100 respondents.The results show that local socio-cultural resilience is the most strategic variable in supporting tourism interest (mean = 4.06), followed by community participation (3.82), infrastructure readiness (3.61), and accessibility (3.26). Qualitative findings reinforce these results, revealing that while the community actively maintains cultural traditions, they face access barriers and lack participatory institutions. A SWOT analysis led to realistic strategies such as establishing a Local Customary Tourism Unit, developing permanent piers and sea transportation, and drafting a village regulation (Perdes) on culture-based tourism.This study concludes that sustainable coastal tourism development in Mursala Island must be grounded in the strength of local social capital, cultural preservation, and improvements in accessibility and infrastructure. The findings contribute theoretically to strengthening the concept of Community-Based Tourism (CBT) and practically to informing policy direction for locally-based coastal tourism area development.

Abstract

Lau Kawar Lake, a natural tourism area located on the slopes of Mount Sinabung in Karo Regency, North Sumatra, holds significant potential for the development of nature and culture-based tourism. However, the growth in tourist visits has not yet met expectations due to limited accessibility across various dimensions. This study aims to formulate strategies for improving physical, informational, and institutional accessibility in support of sustainable regional development.The research adopts a mixed methods approach, emphasizing primary data collection through field observations, interviews with key stakeholders and village officials, as well as surveys of 60 tourist respondents. Findings reveal that, overall, the three dimensions of accessibility are still rated as "fair," with average scores ranging from 3.28 to 3.36. The main barriers identified include inadequate road infra-structure within the area, lack of dedicated public transportation for tourists, limited official digital promotional content, and weak institutional coordination in area management. A synthesis of the quantitative and qualitative results indicates that the development of Lau Kawar Lake requires an integrative approach that combines spatial planning, community-based governance, and local policy interventions.Based on these findings, several strategic recommendations are proposed: (1) improvement of access roads and landslide-prone areas through Special Allocation Fund (DAK) for infrastructure; (2) provision of dedicated public transportation for tourists with fixed routes and schedules from the nearest city center; (3) installation of directional signs and visual information boards in aesthetically pleasing formats and bilingual language; (4) establishment of a Digital Promotion Team involving local actors and institutions; (5) capacity-building programs for the community in tourism services, home stay management, and culinary entrepreneurship; and (6) formation of a Cross-Sectoral Accessibility Coordination Forum for Lau Kawar Tourism as a medium-term planning and monitoring platform.This study contributes contextually to strengthening the accessibility dimension as a key prerequisite for advancing local tourism destinations towards sustainable, inclusive, and locally grounded development.

Abstract

This research is an evaluative study of the old urban area of Kesawan in Medan City, which has been part of the city’s revitalization efforts initiated by the Medan City Government. Kesawan possesses strong historical and colonial architectural character but has undergone functional and visual degradation due to uncontrolled modern urban development. One of the key issues identified is the presence of inactive urban spaces, disconnected from the public realm and lacking social meaning—phenomena recognized in urban theory as lost space. This concept serves as the foundation for evaluating the effectiveness of the revitalization program implemented since 2021. The study employs a qualitative approach using a single-case study method, focusing on Kesawan as a complex urban space. Data were collected through field observations, in-depth interviews with five categories of informants (building owners, visitors, security personnel, street vendors, and architects), and visual documentation. The analysis adopts the theoretical framework of Finding Lost Space by Roger Trancik (1986), which comprises three main approaches: Figure-Ground Theory, Linkage Theory, and Place Theory. These were further elaborated into six evaluative indicators: connectivity, continuity and circulation, enclosure, accessibility, visual orientation, and the meaning and perception of space by the public. The findings indicate that revitalization has brought significant visual improvements and physical enhancements, particularly along the main corridor of Jalan Ahmad Yani I–VII. However, many secondary streets and non-priority areas still exhibit characteristics of lost space, such as disconnected pedestrian paths, underutilized voids, weak spatial integration, and limited social engagement. These conditions suggest that the revitalization outcomes remain uneven and predominantly cosmetic in certain areas. The study recommends integrating spatial and social approaches in future urban revitalization policies to ensure that public space functions can be restored holistically, sustainably, and contextually in line with local identity.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the factors influencing the optimization of green open space (GOS)-based tourism object development at Panatapan Panyabungan Park, Mandailing Natal Regency. This area possesses high ecological and visual potential, yet its management remains suboptimal in terms of facilities, community participation, and institutional support. The study employs a mixed methods approach, combining quantitative methods using multiple linear regression analysis on 150 respondents, and qualitative methods through in-depth interviews with key informants. The results show that simul-taneously, the four independent variables—GOS quality (X1), tourism facilities and infrastructure (X2), community participation (X3), and local government support (X4)—significantly influence the optimization of tourism development (Y). However, partially, only X2 has a significant positive effect, while X1 and X3 have significant negative effects, and X4 has no significant effect. Qualitative findings reveal that the community is not involved in decision-making, and the local government has not demonstrated concrete intervention in managing the area. These findings suggest that the strategy for developing GOS-based tourism objects should emphasize improving basic facilities, establishing participatory governance, and strengthening the structural role of local governments. A collaborative and community-based approach is key to realizing a sustainable tourism area in environmental, social, and economic aspects.

Abstract

This study focuses on the development of an interactive web-based learning platform for Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) control systems, aimed at addressing the conceptual challenges faced by electrical engineering students when learning PID through conventional teaching methods. Despite its foundational role in control theory, PID remains difficult to grasp without practical visualization and hands-on experimentation. To bridge this gap, the research introduces a practical and accessible platform that enhances conceptual understanding through real-time simulations and physical interaction. The proposed system integrates key hardware components including an ESP-32 microcontroller, DC motor, rotary encoder, BTS 7960 motor driver, and I2C LCD. The platform’s web interface is built using HTML, Tailwind CSS, and JavaScript, enabling intuitive user interaction. Motor response data is captured via the ESP-32 and transmitted to the web interface using the WebSocket protocol, allowing users to instantly visualize system behavior as PID parameters (Kp, Ki, Kd) are adjusted. This dynamic feedback mechanism enables students to observe changes in system characteristics such as rise time, overshoot, and settling time in real time. To evaluate the platform’s feasibility, practicality, and educational effectiveness, beta testing was conducted among electrical engineering students using Likert-scale questionnaires. The results demonstrated that users were able to successfully interpret the impact of PID tuning on system performance. The average evaluation score reached 75.13%, indicating strong agreement regarding the platform’s educational value and its effectiveness in enhancing learning outcomes. In conclusion, the study affirms that the developed web-based platform offers a feasible, engaging, and pedagogically effective alternative to traditional learning approaches. By combining interactive simulations with physical experimentation, the platform significantly improves students’ understanding of PID control systems.

Abstract

Green Open Space (RTH) is an essential element in urban development, playing a crucial role in supporting ecological balance, providing shade, producing oxygen, and absorbing pollution. It also serves as a social and cultural space for the community. The neighborhood park located along the banks of the Deli River on Ileng Street, Medan Marelan District, represents a concrete example of this issue. The current condition of Ileng Park reflects a decline in its quality as a green open space. This study aims to identify existing problems in terms of the park's physical condition, functionality, and user activities. It employs a qualitative descriptive approach grounded in a case study framework, with data collected from both primary and secondary sources. The analysis is conducted using a rationalistic site analysis method. The findings indicate that the community perceives a need for the revitalization of the park to enhance comfort, attractiveness, and the implementation of the Islamic Garden Concept, which is considered appropriate for restoring the park’s function as a green open space.

Abstract

This design project is motivated by the low public interest in sports and the limited availability of sports facilities, creating a need for a sports hall that is both effective and efficient in enhancing the community’s quality of life. However, the mere provision of a sports facility is not sufficient; considerations such as building orientation, opening design, and airflow circulation are essential to create an optimal environment for sports activities. Therefore, the tropical architecture approach serves as the primary design basis for the sports hall in Asahan Regency. The aim of this design is to support a healthy lifestyle and improve the quality of life of the local community through comfortable and safe sports activities. The design method adopts a qualitative approach, with data collected through interviews and field observations to understand the needs and preferences of the community. The design also reflects local identity through a mass transformation inspired by the shell form, symbolizing the city of Asahan. The shell structure system is known for its slenderness, making it lightweight and efficient, while its curvature ensures even load distribution. This approach can serve as a model for future sports facility developments in Asahan Regency. This sports hall is expected to become a central hub for athletes in Asahan, providing optimal training facilities to improve their performance. With a modern building and complete facilities, the community can engage in sports activities more comfortably and safely, thus increasing public interest in sports and enhancing overall well-being. This design also aims to promote awareness of the importance of a healthy lifestyle through an effective and efficient sports center.
