Abstract

The tectonic knowledge of the people who live in floating houses comes from the understanding of the tradition of building land on stilt houses because the fishing communities who live in floating homes also live on land. However, the climatic conditions above the water are extreme and different from the ground, causing the tectonics of the floating house to adapt to the climatic conditions on the water so that the floating house has resistance to natural disasters on the water. The problem of this research is that there is a change in the tradition of building from traditional mainland stilt houses to floating houses, thus creating a unique tectonic expression in floating homes. This study aims to reveal the tectonics of floating homes based on the tradition of building and surviving on the water. The research method used in this study is a qualitative method with an ethnic-architecture approach. The results showed that the tectonics of the floating house originating from the mainland stilt house tradition underwent changes in several parts, especially in the lower and middle structures. However, it does not change the concept of Bugis society's cosmology. Extreme climatic factors influence the formation of floating house tectonics. For the resilience of houses on the water, a structural system is needed to anticipate climatic conditions.

Abstract

Public space is one of the important elements in a city to accommodate the citizen to do various things. However, it is not uncommon for public spaces to be ignored or unused by the community. Looking at this phenomenon, this study aims to look at the relationship between physical characteristics, activities, and sense of place of a public place. The research used qualitative methods in the first stage and quantitative methods in the second stage. The first stage explores the physical characteristics and activities in public spaces, as well as the user's perceived sense of place. The second stage reveals the correlational relationship between dimensions of physical characteristics, activities, and sense of place. From the results of the correlational analysis, it is revealed that the physical characteristics of the natural environment encourage a sense of meaningful place and encourage refreshing activities which also encourage a sense of meaningful place. In addition, productive activities are carried out by the physical character of the arts and kept away by the physical character of the social atmosphere and parking, as well as encouraging a sense of meaningful place. The physical character of the novelty encourages recreational activities and discourages socialization. In addition, the physical character of accessibility also encourages recreational and socialization activities. As for the physical character, many choices encourage socialization and consumptive activities which then create a sense of only knowing a space.

Abstract

One of the urban infrastructures that reflect the development of a city is a Crossing Bridge. If a city is more developed, the activity of human movement between regions will increase. Crossing Bridge, which is one of the Street Furnitures, functions to ease the people's mobility safely without distracting the flow of existing vehicles. In fact, Crossing Bridge have not been optimally utilized by pedestrians, it can be seen by pedestrian behavior that is applied when passing through the highway by jumping over the barrier. As happened on the Pandanaran road section in the city of Semarang, this behavior causes the bridge to malfunction and brings up further phenomena such as stairs changing into seats and circulating bridges being occupied by homeless people. The purpose of this research is to uncover the connection between the privacy attributes and pedestrian convenience, with the setting conditions of the Pandanaran Crossing Bridge in Semarang, by using a quantitative paradigm approach. The results of the questionnaire in closed form and the Behavioral Mapping method will then be analyzed using descriptive statistical analysis techniques, until it will finally be revealed that the lack of property strength on the Crossing Bridges, which is not able to meet the pedestrians' attribute needs, causes some people choose to cross directly.

Abstract

Land availability is increasingly limited, so it is not surprising that land prices are getting more expensive. However, behind the high price of land, there is a lot of empty space, especially in settlements, in the form of vacant land, buildings, ready-to-build land and built-up land that is not utilized or stalled. There are houses in settlements that are purchased only for investment so that they are not used or occupied by the owner, vacant land such as land under a network of sutets, and land in the form of lots ready to build in unsold housing. This condition is of course very unfortunate given the high price of land and the very high needs of the community for land, especially for housing, social space and as a place of business. Therefore, this research is to see how the occupants agree to fill the empty space in the settlement, using qualitative methods. The results showed that most residents agree that empty spaces in settlements should not be left empty for too long, but can be used for useful things while maintaining public interests, not harming others, not disturbing others, positive activities. and keep the environment clean. The use of empty space in settlements, both formal and non-formal by residents of the premises, is as a place to raise fish, place animal cages, plant fruit and vegetable gardens, park vehicles, play areas for children, place temporary leaf trash, sports fields and night markets.

Abstract

In the seventeenth century AD, the Sultanate of Aceh under the leadership of Sultan Iskandar Thani made a manuscript entitled Bustanussalatin. This manuscript contains the story of the creation of the universe, the relationship between God and man, the lineage of the sultans of Aceh, as well as a small section about the royal garden called Taman Ghairah. The existence of this garden is still questionable, but scholars who research this garden associate three buildings nearby the former royal palace as a remnant of this Garden. This paper questions whether this garden was built or not and when it was built and the loss of this garden. Through literature review and archival research, this paper tries to trace the presence and disappearance of this garden. The Bustanussalatin manuscript provides information on the development of this garden during the reign of Iskandar Thani. Meanwhile, researchers believe that this garden was already built during the Iskandar Muda era. Portuguese maps provide information that this garden did not exist in the sixteenth century, while a map of the Netherlands in the nineteenth century before the start of the Dutch Aceh War, also does not depict this garden at all. This research proposes the idea that this garden was likely built during the reign of Iskandar Muda and was lost before the Dutch military aggression to Aceh.

Abstract

Due to the geographic condition of the country, Indonesia is very vulnerable to natural disasters (BNPB, 2017). As a response, this country has various mechanisms of assistance to disaster-affected communities and assistance to fulfil basic needs for disaster victims, one of which includes the provision of ‘huntara’ as temporary shelter for the victims (BNPB, 2008). Because of its temporary nature, transitional shelters in Indonesia generally have a relatively short life cycle of building materials and may produce quite the amount of waste which would be harmful to the environment. This study attempts to understand the material life cycle process in transitional shelters built during the eruption of Mount Merapi Eruption in 2010. This study uses the approach of qualitative research with two main data collection methods—observations and interviews. This study found that the design of transitional shelter for this disaster had allowed for most of the building components to principles of Design for Disassembly, which supports the potential for material loops to occur and possibly to fulfil the characteristics of sustainable transitional shelter. However, neither the victims nor the aid providers were fully aware of this potential: thus, it could not be optimally utilised. This condition is quite unfortunate, considering that Indonesia is very prone to disasters so that transitional shelters will often be needed. Therefore, further studies are required to formulate various design standards for transitional shelter in Indonesia to optimise the potential for longevity and minimise environmental impacts.

Abstract

The advancement of information and communication technology has had a major impact on the world as it increases the fulfillment of people's needs and comfort. This can be seen in urban development with the formation of the concept of a smart city, a city that integrates technological advances with people's lives to make effective decisions so as to improve the welfare of its people. This paper discussed the implementation of the smart city concept in Bekasi City, Indonesia. Along with its development, there are several applications of smart city elements in Bekasi City that are still far from expectations regarding the service quality and coverage. This study aims to see how smart city pillars are implemented in Bekasi City. Nonparticipant observation is used to conduct the study. The result shows that the range of smart city applications in Bekasi City is quite narrow and some service quality is still poor. Only 10 out of 21 criteria have been fulfilled in the city. This research needs further study on the implementation of smart cities in other Indonesian cities to see the effectiveness of its application and other solutions that can be offered.

Abstract

Jakarta is the most populated city in Indonesia with a long history of natural disasters, particularly floods. The city's geographical condition has been said as the leading cause of the recurrent floods that happen over the years. This situation has predominantly affected the people living in the flood-prone locations in several settlements along the Ciliwung riverbanks. The government has conducted various efforts to enhance the city resilience towards flood incidence, including utilizing smart city approach, such as flood monitoring applications to give a real-time information related to certain circumstances that possibly caused flooding. This effort aims to increase the community awareness toward disaster events.The aim of this paper is to analyse the effectiveness of people using the flood mitigation application as an early warning system in Jakarta. To construct this objective, questions for instance as to what extent people are familiar with the application, how much they understand its function, and whether they face any difficulties in using the application during the flood events are proposed. The quantitative approach is being used in this research to gather people's opinions towards the application, specifically JAKI. Preliminary results suggest that there are still some gaps in the implementation of technology applied with how society comprehends it, resulting in the interference with the application’s intention as an early warning system. Some important features that need to be reformed in favor of public use are the application basis, target group, data selection, and application in disaster management schemes. While the research is still on-going, an understanding that technology should be aligned with the community's ability to use it should be redefined in the implementation of smart city principles in Jakarta.
