Indonesia is in an earthquake-prone region, therefore, designing building constructions that can withstand seismic loads is crucial in civil engineering. Reinforced concrete shear walls are one of the vertical structural fundamentals that are effectively used in multi-story buildings to withstand lateral forces due to earthquake and wind loads. Structures that use shear walls can increase stiffness and reduce horizontal deviations (deflections) of buildings, which contribute to the stability and safety of structures based on the SNI 1726:2019 standard. This study aims to analyze the effect of shear wall configurations on deviation and torsion requirements in multi-story building planning. The study object is a 6-story reinforced concrete building model in a specific earthquake zone. The design and modeling were performed using structural analysis software, taking into account columns, beams, slabs, and shear walls. The analysis results show that optimal placement of shear walls at the building edges significantly reduces horizontal drift, torsion, and shear forces, and improves the structural performance level compared to structures without shear walls or those with less effective placement. Structures with shear walls have optimal stiffness in absorbing lateral forces, making them more resistant to damage from the planned earthquake.

Time delays and cost overruns remain major problems in building construction projects, particularly in concrete structural works that dominate project duration and cost. This study aims to evaluate the application of re-engineering in concrete structural work methods on the time and cost performance of multi-storey building projects. A quantitative approach using a case study method was employed through comparative analysis between the existing method and alternative methods. The analyzed alternatives include ready-mix concrete with Sika Viscocrete 8007 admixture and semi-system formwork as Alternative I, ready-mix concrete with system formwork as Alternative II, and ready-mix concrete with Sika Viscocrete 8007 admixture combined with system formwork as Alternative III. The results show that all alternatives perform better than the existing method with a duration of 243 days. Alternative I reduced the duration to 208 days with cost efficiency of IDR 55,781,730 or 0.214 percent. Alternative II reduced the duration to 203 days with cost efficiency of IDR 187,553,261 or 0.724 percent. Alternative III achieved the best performance with a duration of 168 days, accelerating 75 days and providing the highest cost efficiency of IDR 243,334,991 or 0.941 percent. The study concludes that re-engineering effectively improves project time and cost performance, with Alternative III as the optimal method.

A building feasibility evaluation study is an important step to ensure the safety, comfort, and sustainability of building functions, especially in public service facilities. This activity was carried out at the PLN ULP Praya office building, Central Lombok Regency, West Nusa Tenggara, which has been operating since 1985. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of building feasibility based on structural, architectural, utility, safety, and health aspects of the building. The methods used included visual inspection, field measurements, hammer tests, and analysis of the condition of building elements based on building feasibility inspection standards. The inspection results showed that the building suffered severe damage characterized by foundation subsidence, large cracks in the walls, reinforcement corrosion, concrete peeling, and damage to the roof frame. The structural strength value obtained was below the construction feasibility standard so that the building was declared structurally unfit for function. Although several supporting aspects such as lighting, drainage, and sanitation systems still functioned quite well, the damaged condition of the main structure has the potential to endanger the safety of users. Therefore, rebuilding the building structure is recommended as the safest solution to ensure the safety, stability, and sustainability of the building's function in the future.

Construction projects have unique characteristics that differ from other operational activities, as they are time-limited, involve a variety of resources, and require coordination across organizations. Occupational safety and health (K3) is an important element in protecting the workforce as well as the company's assets. This study aims to analyze the implementation of K3 policies in the construction project of PT. X. The research method uses a qualitative approach with case studies, while data analysis is carried out thematically based on the George C. Edwards III policy implementation model, which includes aspects of communication, resources, disposition, and bureaucratic structure. The results of the study show that the implementation of the K3 policy has been running but has not been optimal. The communication aspect has not been carried out regularly and continuously, resources are still limited with task trapping, the disposition of policy implementers is not evenly distributed, marked by low worker compliance, and the bureaucratic structure has not been supported by standardized SOPs and coordination between work units is still weak. This condition creates a gap between the K3 policy and the implementation in the field, so that it has the potential to increase the risk of work accidents and reduce the effectiveness of labor protection. This research emphasizes the need to strengthen communication, increase resources, implement commitment, and improve the bureaucratic structure to support the implementation of more effective K3 policies.

The construction sector is an industry with a high level of work accident risk due to its dynamic and complex work characteristics. This study aims to examine the application of the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) System and evaluate its effectiveness in mitigating risks at the Health Facility Building Construction Project (Project X) in Fakfak Regency. The research method used is a descriptive-analytical quantitative approach with purposive sampling of 25 respondents, including executors, supervisors, and field workers. Risk analysis was conducted using the Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) method by measuring Severity, Occurrence, and Detection parameters to produce a Risk Priority Number (RPN). The results show that RPN values range from 52.35 to 452.30. The highest risk was found in the variable of limited safety signage in hazardous locations (RPN 452.30), which falls into the very high category. Additionally, 10 high-risk variables and 9 medium-risk variables were identified, dominated by technical, operational, and management factors, such as the use of heavy equipment by uncertified operators and weak implementation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) and OHS audits. This study concludes that the application of OHS in Project X is still reactive and requires strengthening risk-based safety management systems as well as improving workforce competence to achieve zero accident conditions.

This study analyzes a 10-floor multi-story lecture building in Lombok, focusing on the impact of concrete quality degradation on the building's performance. Due to limited material access, the actual on-site concrete quality changed from the design quality of fc 30 MPa to fc 24.9 MPa. The building structure was modeled in 3D using ETABS v22 software, and two structural models were compared: one with the design concrete quality (fc' 30 MPa) and one with the actual quality (fc' 24.9 MPa). The analysis evaluated dynamic performance, inelastic displacements, P-Delta effects, and reinforcement requirements. The comparison aimed to assess the impact of concrete degradation on structural stiffness, inter-story displacements, and reinforcement needs. The results show that concrete quality deterioration increases the structure's vibration period, inelastic displacement, and lateral forces due to P-Delta effects. While beam reinforcement requirements remain mostly unchanged, column reinforcement significantly increases, especially in columns with large axial forces. This study provides valuable insights into the technical consequences of concrete quality degradation and serves as a reference for evaluating structural redesigns in projects facing material limitations.

The calculation of work volume and construction costs is a fundamental aspect of project management, as errors in the estimation process can directly affect the preparation of the project budget. Many projects still use conventional methods for estimation, which are based on 2D working drawings with the assistance of Microsoft Excel, as seen in the Sungai Raya Religious Court Building project. This method is considered prone to calculation errors and less efficient due to the considerable amount of time required. With the advancement of technology, Building Information Modeling (BIM) has emerged, enabling automatic and integrated calculation of work volumes and construction costs through a three-dimensional digital model. This study aims to examine the implementation of BIM in the Sungai Raya Religious Court Building project and to compare the results of work volume and construction cost calculations between the BIM method using Autodesk Revit and the conventional method based on the project’s Bill of Quantity (BoQ). The research method was conducted by modeling the structural elements of the building, including pile caps, tie beams, columns, beams, floor slabs, and reinforcements. The results of work volume and construction cost calculations obtained from Autodesk Revit were then compared with the project’s BoQ as the conventional method. Based on the analysis, an average difference of 6.3% in work volume and 5.6% in construction cost was found, with the Autodesk Revit calculations showing slightly lower values compared to the project’s BoQ.

Work volume calculations are essential for project cost estimation. Many projects, such as the Laboratory Building of the Faculty Engineering at Tanjungpura University, calculate work volumes conventionally. Conventional calculation considered less efficient and prone to errors. Building Information Modeling (BIM) provides a solution that produces more accurate and efficient calculations than conventional methods. This research aims to compare structural work volume results produced by BIM using Autodesk Revit against conventional methods and project’s BOQ. This research also describes the benefits and challenges of BIM implementation based on the researcher’s experience applying BIM with Autodesk Revit in work volume calculation. The comparison between BIM and conventional method shows a maximum difference of 2% across all work items. Meanwhile, the comparison between BIM and the BOQ shows significant differences: 81% in column formwork area, 24% in grade beam/beam concrete volume, 25% in column reinforcement weight, 25% in steel beam weight, and 10% in the steel plate weight. This research proves that BIM implementation produces more accurate and efficient calculations and serves as an effective BOQ cross-check tool. Based on the researcher’s experience in implementing BIM with Autodesk Revit, challenges found in procurement aspects, modeling aspects, and model dependency on reference drawings.    

This study examines the application of double integrals in calculating the volume of cylindrical concrete piles as a basis for estimating material requirements in building foundation structures. The volume calculation was carried out using a double-integral approach in polar coordinates for three pile segments with lengths of 4 m, 3.9 m, and 4 m, each having a diameter of 60 cm. The results were then validated using the standard geometric formula to ensure consistency and mathematical reliability. The obtained concrete volume was subsequently used to estimate material needs based on a 1:1.5:3 mix proportion consisting of cement, sand, and gravel. The findings indicate that double integrals can be effectively applied to generate accurate estimations of both volume and material requirements, supporting logistical planning in construction. This approach also highlights the strong connection between mathematical concepts—particularly multivariable calculus—and practical applications in civil engineering. Furthermore, the study emphasizes that double integrals may serve as a relevant alternative when structural modeling requires deeper analytical exploration or validation beyond conventional geometry. Therefore, the implementation of double integrals not only reinforces theoretical understanding but also enhances precision in evaluating structural components within building foundation planning.

Perhitungan daya dukung pondasi yang akurat menjadi aspek penting dalam memastikan stabilitas dan keamanan struktur bangunan secara keseluruhan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk membandingkan nilai daya dukung ultimit (Qu) dari pondasi bored pile dengan menggunakan empat pendekatan berbeda, yaitu perhitungan manual menggunakan metode Schmertmann & Nottingham, Mayerhoff (1976), software Allpile, serta hasil uji lapangan dengan PDA (Pile Driving Analyzer). Studi kasus dilakukan pada proyek pembangunan Gedung Fave Hotel yang terletak di Banyumanik, Semarang. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa metode Schmertmann & Nottingham dengan nilai Qu tertinggi sebesar 282,25 ton. Sedangkan nilai terendah berasal dari hasil uji PDA 159,61 ton. Metode Mayerhoff (1976), memberikan nilai sebesar 170,30 ton, sementara Allpile menghasilkan nilai 160,79 ton. Selisih nilai ini disebabkan oleh perbedaan pendekatan dan asumsi yang digunakan oleh masing-masing metode. Secara umum, hasil PDA dianggap paling merepresentasikan kondisi aktual di lapangan karena merupakan hasil uji dinamis langsung pada tiang. Oleh karena itu, pendekatan manual dan software Allpile dapat dijadikan sebagai estimasi awal dalam tahap desain, namun tetap perlu divalidasi melalui pengujian lapangan untuk memperoleh hasil yang lebih realistis dan dapat diandalkan.
