Abstract

Colonial buildings that still survive today are the main attraction because they have high characteristics and historical value. Colonial buildings are one of the cultural heritage that need to be maintained. The existence of colonial residential buildings must be maintained and utilized commercially as one of the solutions to survive. Maintenance of old colonial buildings is not easy, it needs to be quite expensive due to the age of the building and the need for rejuvenation. Heirs or owners of colonial buildings must maximize the building commercially, one of which is on the building on Jalan Beringin Sekayu Semarang by making it a business house. This colonial building has not yet entered the cultural heritage building. Still, it has the potential to enter the cultural heritage building in the future judging from the history and appearance of the building's façade. The use of colonial residential buildings in business houses needs careful adjustment and arrangement because of the existence of 2 different functions. Residential houses are private zones that require the privacy of homeowners and their families, while business premises are public zones that can be accessed publicly and must reflect professionalism to be trusted by clients and must increase employee productivity. Comfort as a home and professionalism in a place of business are not easy to do without good planning. Planning must not change the total face of the building so that the historical value of the cultural heritage is not lost. Spatial adjustments must also be made by considering aspects of function, comfort, and professionalism. Without good planning, colonial buildings that have historical value, and cultural heritage characteristics will be lost and buildings cannot function properly with disruption of activities as residences and places of business. The research was conducted with descriptive qualitative research methods through field observation, interviews, and literature studies. Research needs to be done so that colonial buildings can survive as cultural heritage and be used properly with adjustments due to their function as a residence as well as a place of business. The results of the study can describe the changes or adaptations that occur due to the use of colonial buildings of residential houses in places of business. These changes and adaptations include the appearance of the façade, zoning area, and circulation.

Abstract

Abstract. One of the tourism potentials located in Pekalongan City is Pasir Kencana Beach which is located in Panjang Wetan Village, North Pekalongan District. Pasir Kencana Beach is approximately ±4km or approximately ±15 minutes from the center of Pekalongan City. This beach has previously attracted a lot of interest from local and out-of-town tourists because of its beautiful sunset views in the afternoon. The Golden Sands tourist location is close to the port, fish auctions and nearby beach tourist attractions so it is very strategic and easy to reach. Pasir Kencana Beach is generally used as a family tourist destination. Golden sand beach used to have an area of beach sand that sparkled like gold, but as sea levels rose or tidal disasters caused the embankments to be damaged, some facilities were poorly maintained and the playground area was submerged when heavy rains arrived, so revitalization or repair of tourist attractions was needed to bring them back to life. Beach tourism can increase the number of visitors and economic growth in the surrounding area. In an effort to support the development of the Marine Tourism Area in the Pekalongan City area into an integrated beach tourism destination, a development concept is needed through infrastructure development which includes aspects of Accessibility, Amenities and Attractions (3A). The infrastructure development components include repairing roads to tourist areas, structuring coastal tourist areas which include facilities and infrastructure supporting the area such as: construction of public spaces (rest areas, parking, ticketing, play areas, toilets, landmarks, green open spaces, street furniture, as well as management of drainage, solid waste, waste and others.

Abstract

The function of the Alun-alun as a public space was originally to accommodate state ceremonial activities and religious rituals. Slowly the function of the Alun-alun also changed according to the times. This diverse function of the Alun-alun also still applies in Alun-alun Kauman and becomes more complex with the addition of other functions due to the dynamics of development that occur. The current function of Alun-alun Kauman is to accommodate three main activities, namely sports activities, recreational activities, and religious ritual activities, which are supported by trading activities. This research aims to find the activity order of Alun-alun Kauman users in the new design. The method used was a quantitative approach. Data collection techniques were conducted through field observations in a full day for one week. The time span of a day was broken down into 2-hour intervals. This is based on the consideration that the average visitor activity time ranges from 1 to 2 hours. Data quantification and analysis are based on observations of visitor activity settings. Digitization is an effort to utilize applications or software used as research aids, by translating quantitative data into graphics. Through the digitization picture, the data of visitor activity order can be seen quickly, easily, and accurately. It was found that the Alun-alun as a public space has a function that is still in demand by local residents to conduct activities.

Abstract

In constructing high-rise buildings such as Gedung Kuliah Bersama 2 Universitas Muhammadiyah Semarang, the right planning and design stages are very important requirements in the process. The utility system of a building is a series of complementary things that must be planned from the beginning before the building operates. Utility systems are part of a building's success in meeting or accommodating the needs of its users. Utilities learn a lot about the effectiveness of space division in-room programming, access, property details, and other things that support the function of a building. This research is based on a field survey that focuses on the type of sanitation, drainage, and piping system (SDP) in building utilities. This study aims to analyze the performance of buildings in high-rise buildings in the education sector, namely the Gedung Kuliah Bersama 2. The utility system in the Gedung Kuliah Bersama 2 has met SNI (Indonesian National Standard) standards with a fully used connected system along with the distribution of power and capacity in the area within the building which is supported by modern and sophisticated equipment to be more effective and efficient in supporting building performance.

Abstract

Penggaron Terminal in Semarang City, as one of the main terminals, faces problems related to the use of space that is not optimal. Many users prefer to do activities around the red light at the terminal entrance rather than inside the terminal itself, which causes vehicle congestion and illegal bus parking. This study aims to optimize the use of the terminal and overcome the problem of illegal parking by using the Person Centered Maps, Place Centered Maps, and Physical Trace methods. These methods are used to map user movement patterns, identify space usage, and analyze physical traces left at the terminal. The results of the study indicate that users gather more often outside the terminal, and there is irregularity in the management of space and parking that affects the smoothness of traffic. Based on this analysis, it is recommended to rearrange the parking area, improve facilities inside the terminal, and install clear signs to optimize the function of the terminal. The implementation of this solution is expected to improve the safety, comfort, and efficiency of terminal use, as well as support the smooth flow of traffic around the Terminal area.
