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.

Healthcare is an integral part of health development in Indonesia, which aims to optimally improve public health. Hospitals, as healthcare facilities, are required to provide quality, safe, and patient-centered services. Service quality is a key indicator of service success, as good service impacts patient satisfaction. One of the most important services in hospitals is obstetrics, which directly relates to maternal and infant health, making patient satisfaction a crucial aspect. Midwives, as professional healthcare workers, play a strategic role in providing comprehensive, sustainable, and patient-centered midwifery care. This study aims to analyze the influence of healthcare facilities and midwife performance on patient satisfaction through service quality. The method used is a quantitative study with an analytical approach and a cross-sectional design. The results of the multiple linear regression test indicate that midwife performance has a more dominant influence on service quality than healthcare facilities. Meanwhile, regarding patient satisfaction, service quality is the most dominant factor, followed by midwife performance and healthcare facilities. The conclusion of this study is that service quality reflects the overall patient experience and is a key factor in improving patient satisfaction.

Fertilization serves as a fundamental component of crop cultivation, wherein the application of mineral nutrients is crucial for plant nourishment, facilitating various physiological processes critical for growth and development. The objective of this study is to establish an optimal recommended dosage that enhances cabbage growth and yield. The experimental design employed in this study was a randomized block design with four replications. The treatments consist of seven fertilization levels, as follows: No fertilization with nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), or potassium (K) (P0), reference fertilization (P1), 0.5 dose of unbalanced compound fertilizers (P2), 0.75 dose of unbalanced compound fertilizers (P3), 1.0 dose of unbalanced compound fertilizers (P4), 1.25 dose of unbalanced compound fertilizers (P5), and 1.5 dose of unbalanced compound fertilizers (P6). The experiment indicated that the application of unbalanced compound fertilizers enhances cabbage plant growth, as evidenced by increased plant height and leaf number compared to the control treatment. Additionally, fertilization improves yield components relative to untreated plants. The application of 0.5 doses of unbalanced compound fertilizers proves agronomically effective, yielding the highest relative agronomic effectiveness at 169%, meaning a 1.69-fold increase in yield. Economically, the same dosage is also highly beneficial, achieving the highest R/C ratio of 2.35 and generating a profit of Rp. 14,365,150. The study results confirm that unbalanced compound fertilizers were both agronomically effective and economically advantageous. The recommended dosage for cabbage cultivation is 134 kg/ha, applied in two stages: 50% at 1 WAT (weeks after transplanting) and the remaining 50% at 4 WAT.

The food and beverage industry in Indonesia is growing rapidly through digital marketing, particularly through the role of influencers in influencing consumer preferences and purchase intentions. Several influencers are no longer merely collaborating with brands, but are also becoming business owners by leveraging their personal branding and follower base.
