The need for housing is increasing day by day. This is a factor in the visit to the need for concrete as a housing construction material. The more concrete that is produced, the more cement is needed for the construction. Concrete is a composite material (mixture) of several materials, the main ingredient of which consists of a mixture of cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate and water. Utilization of waste tire ash in the concrete mix is one of the alternative uses so that ic can ultimately increase the efficiency of cement savings which takes a long time to increase in high prices. With reference to this, this study uses used waste as a cement additive with a mixture composition of 0%, 3%, 6% and 9%. The test specimens were made using a cylinder with a diameter of 15 cm and a height of 40 cm with 48 specimens produced. The results of the compressive strength test of normal concrete (25.45 MPa), while the concrete with a mixture of 3% used tire ash (28.15 MPa), 6% used tire ash mixture (23.46 MPa) and 9% used tire ash mixture (18.60 MPa). From this research, it can be said that compressive strength of concrete using 3% ash produces the greatest compressive strength of 28.15 MPa.
One of the factors of economic growth is the development of infrastructure to encourage the creation of various activities. Concrete becomes an important part in the process of infrastructure development. For the concrete mixture, gravel is the most important part for concrete constituents. The limitation of gravel in nature led to the creation of various studies to replacement solutions for the use of gracel in concrete mixtures.Candlenut shell is one of the waste is not getting attention in its uses. Department of Plantation North Sumatera Province recorded the candlenut production in North Sumatera in 2019 reached 13,529.40 tons. The study aims for replace some of the gravel in the concrete mixture by using a candle nut shell. The variety of concrete mixture with candle nut is 10%, 20% and 30%. Testing was conducted on concrete ages 7 days, 14 days, 21 days and 28 days aimed at finding the difference between normal concrete compressive strength without additional candlenut shells and concrete with additional candlenut shells. The result shows that there was a decrease in the values of concrete compressive strength for each group of test objects. The decrease is due to the candlenut shell having higher and water absorption compared to gravel.

The pedestrian bridge (JPO), as part of the supporting facilities for the road transportation system, has an important role in the arrangement of the transportation system because in its planning the pedestrian bridge is planned to meet safety, security and comfort aspects and can be a liaison between areas that can be accessed by pedestrians. The research was conducted at the Sisingamangaraja Stree JPO which connects two (2) commercial areas, namely the Grand Mosque and the Yuki Simpang Raya shopping center which are generally crowded with residents of Medan City. Primary data collection in the field is carried out on the number of road crossings, both using JPO or not. The data finally shows that the Sisingamangaraja Street JPO is a JPO that is considered Effective as indicated by the percentage value of effectiveness is 61%. In addition, to show the correct crossing facilities on the road, traffic volume calculations are also carried out during peak hours which indicate that the correct crossing facility is a pelican with a waiting booth.
The need for housing is more higher along with the times and this is also a factor to increasing for concrete needed for building development. The more concrete that is produced, the more cement is needed for construction.Concrete is a composite material (mixture) of several materials, the main ingredient which consists of a mixture of cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, water and or without other additives with a certain ratio. Utilization of waste carried out in this study is to utilize corn cobs waste which is commonly found in the outskirts of the city of Medan. By utilizing this waste, it is hoped that it can reduce the accumulation of corn agricultural waste and also increase public insight about how to treat corn cobs waste into other forms. In this study, a concrete trial was carried out by adding corn cobs ash waste to concrete which aims to find out whether corn cobs ash can increase the compressive strength of concrete with variations in the percentage of the mixture of 0%, 3%, 6%, and 9% of the cement weight. The compressive strength value of normal concrete (25.45MPa), while with the substitution of corn cob ash 3% (21.96 MPa), 6% (18.56MPa), and 9% (16.45MPa). So it can be concluded that the resulting compressive strength exceeds the planned compressive strength and the optimum substitution value of corn cobs varian is at the 3% variant, namely 21.96 MPa.
