Building comfort is closely related to occupant productivity. Thermal comfort is closely related to energy consumption in buildings because they are both affected by air temperature. The Community Service Team for the Architecture Department, Faculty of Civil Engineering and Planning, Universitas Trisakti was carried out in collaboration with partners, namely RW 02 Krendang Village, Tambora District, West Jakarta. RW 02 Kelurahan Krendang is in an area with medium to high density with surface cover dominated by roofs and road surfaces. Therefore, through this activity, the team provided planning assistance for comfort in buildings in the RW 02 area of Krendang Village with the aim that residents can find out alternative thermally comfortable building designs and be able to plan for them in the future independently. The method of carrying out this activity is carried out by counseling and training in calculating the material requirements for cool roofs through online, which begins with lectures and discussions in the form of questions and answers. In addition, before and after the activity the participants were given pretest and posttest as indicators of success. This is to find out the understanding of residents regarding the material presented about the concept of efforts to increase thermal comfort using a cool roof. Based on the results of the pretest, in the first question as many as 42.9% of respondents answered correctly, while in the posttest it increased to 66.7%. In the second question, the results of the pretest were 28.6% of the respondents who answered correctly and the results of the posttest were 66.7% of the respondents who answered correctly. Thus, from this activity it is known that the knowledge and understanding of the community is increasing and the awareness of residents is increasing regarding the comfort of buildings and the selection of materials that are safe for the health of residents.
Environmental problems in the city of Jakarta are very complex. One of the problems is that the city gets an abundance of rainwater while the availability of clean water is running low. Rainwater has great potential to be used for clean water reserves in buildings or public facilities. However, there are still many people who do not have the knowledge about how to collect and utilize rainwater, especially in the South Meruya area, West Jakarta. The manager of Child Friendly Integrated Public Space (RPTRA) that is located in South Meruya, West Jakarta, needs to be educated on the design of rainwater storage. The purpose of this Community Service is to provide knowledge to the management of the South Meruya RPTRA regarding the design of the rainwater harvesting system. The implementation method is carried out with an online meeting system. After the Community Service activity was carried out, it was found that the RPTRA management of the South Meruya village had increased knowledge about the design of rainwater storage.
<p>ABSTRACT</p><p>Indonesia has backlog issue against landed houses. While the needs of houses increase every year, land availability decreases in cities that causes landed house prices become unaffordable. One of the solutions offered by the government is RISHA (Rumah Instan Sederhana Sehat) or a simple design innovation of healthy house especially for low-income family. One of its successful projects was Petogogan Row Houses. However, after few years of occupancy the occupants perceive that there are some things which are considered incompatible with the rooms they inhabit. The qualitative approach applied in this study is to uncover the occupants’ perception of the post occupancy of RISHA row houses. Through this research it was found that things that are considered inappropriate by occupants are caused by (1) the furniture (non-fixed elements) capacity exceeds the RISHA room standard; (2) the physical elements (fixed-elements) of walls and ceilings set by RISHA do not provide possibilities for occupants to install non-fixed elements; (3) inadequacy of indoor natural light capacity related to the improper occupants’ considerations.</p><p>Keywords: RISHA row houses, occupants’ perception, room physical elements.</p>
<p><em>Urban Heat Island</em> merupakan sebuah fenomena peningkatan suhu lingkungan suatu wilayah perkotaan yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan wilayah sekitarnya. Kondisi ini diakibatkan oleh banyaknya radiasi matahari yang terpantulkan dan terserap oleh lingkungan dari bidang-bidang infrastruktur kota, seperti permukaan jalan dan permukaan dinding bangunan. Kawasan Meruya Selatan mempunyai suhu permukaan yang tinggi dan berpotensi pada peningkatan <em>Urban Heat Island</em>. Salah satu upaya agar dapat menurunkan suhu lingkungan adalah dengan pemilihan material yang tepat. Penyuluhan mengenai upaya mengurangi <em>Urban Heat Island</em> melalui pemilihan material dilakukan dengan menjadikan Ruang Publik Terpadu Ramah Anak (RPTRA) sebagai contoh perbaikan material. RPTRA Meruya Selatan didesain sebagai fasilitas publik yang digunakan oleh warga sekitar. Upaya penyuluhan dilakukan agar panas lingkungan di kelurahan Meruya Selatan bisa berkurang dan lingkungannya menjadi lebih baik.</p>
Pembangunan sering kali dikaitkan dengan hal yang bersifat fisik maupun material. Sedangkan pada hakikatnya, pembangunan meliputi dua unsur, yaitu materi yang dihasilkan dan manusia yang menggerakan pembangunan. Pembangunan di Indonesiapada umumnya menitik beratkan pada materi, terutama ekonomi dan infrastruktur yangingin dicapai dan mengesampingkan pembangunan masyarakat di dalamnya.Pembangunan ekonomi dilakukan untuk merespon datangnya pasar bebas, sehinggapembangunan ekonomi yang ada berbasis pasar. Hal ini kurang sesuai dengan sifatdasar masyarakat Indonesia yang bersifat komunal, berbasis komunitas. Dalam pasar,modal dan keuntungan adalah hal yang utama, sedangkan dalam komunitas kesejahteraan masyarakat, kebersamaan merupakan hal yang utama. Di Indonesia, komunitas atau Usaha Kecil Menengah dengan komoditas belum dapat berkembang dengan baik karena keterbatasan modal dan kurangnya pemasaran. Sebagai contoh, UKM penghasil gula semut di Kabupaten Kulonprogo. UKM berhasil memproduksi gula semut yang memenuhi kualitas standar internasional. Akan tetapi, karena keterbatasan modal dan kurangnya pemasaran pengeksporan gula semut belum dapat dilakukan secara maksimal. Pemerintah Kabupaten Kulonprogo kemudian mulai aktif mengembangkan komoditas ini dengan mendatangkan investor dan memberikan bantuan alat modern untuk meningkatkan produktivitas UKM. Hal ini perlu diperhatikan lebih lanjut, karena bisa saja dengan investor dan alat modern, pengrajin justru kehilangan pekerjaan dan hanya mengejar keuntungan. Komunitas dalam UKM harus terus melakukan inovasi agar mampu bersaing dalam pasar. UKM yang mampu masuk dalam pasar akan mendatangkan investor untuk membantu pengembangan komoditas sehingga masyarakat dan investor akan mendapatkan keuntungan seperti yangdiharapkan.
