Makna Visual Video Campaign Peringatan Hari Air Dunia ke-30 Tahun 2022 Ditjen SDA Kementerian PUPR

Abstract As a form of public awareness regarding the importance of groundwater for every living thing and in the future simultaneously managing, also managing water resources in a sustainable manner, Ministry of Public Works and Housing published a video campaign on PUPR_SDA youtube channel in order to commemorate “30th World Water Day 2022”. When watching a video, the viewer will undoubtedly have their own interpretations of the message and meanings represented by the signs. This study aims to show the message and meaning of each sign from the scene in the video campaign using Roland Barthes’s Semiotics analysis to describe the message with a more detailed explanation through the meaning of denotation and connotation in the 30th World Water Day 2022” video. From the fifteen scenes in the “30th World Water Day 2022” video, it was concluded that denotation interpretation appeared through the depiction of the fertility of rural agricultural areas demonstrating that water has enormous advantages, not only for humans, but also for plants and animals. On the other hand, connotative interpretation from the video was the water consumption must be done with caution. Water needs for future generations can be saved by making effort to save water and use groundwater wisely. Keywords: Video Campaign, World Water Day, Semiotic, Denotation, Connotation.

Study on Raw Water Needs at Cibanten Reservoir Serang Regency, Banten Province

The rural communities of Sukadana and Sukabares in Serang Regency, Banten Province, require clean and quality water. Current water supply of 10 liters per second serves 4,120 people in Sukadana and 500 in Sukabares. Yet, many lack access due to a required flow rate of 21 liters per second for the combined 9,399 population. Additionally, the existing water network is aging and functioning suboptimally due to damage and insufficient volume capacity. Two main reasons, the damaged old network and insufficient water volume supply, necessitate the construction of a new water network by revamping the existing system and enhancing the reservoir capacity. This network planning is designed to serve the community for the next 22 years, aiming toward Indonesia's golden age in 2045. To ensure the provision of clean water, a well-structured Raw Water Network Development is required. A sound network involves meticulous calculations of water demand and availability to formulate an appropriate Water Network System. The study utilizes measurements from a Current Meter at the Cibanten Reservoir and the FJ. Mock method for establishing reliable flow rates. Water demand calculations are based on population growth projections using arithmetic, geometric, and exponential methods, extended to the year 2045. The research indicates that by 2045, the new network will cater to 15,952 individuals, with a required flow rate of 36 liters per second. This will serve domestic households at 20.30 liters per second, social activities at 1.11 liters per second, and non-domestic purposes at 3.86 liters per second, resulting in a total demand of 35.38 liters per second, considering water loss due to evapotranspiration. The available drinking water flow is abundant at 272 liters per second. With the development and improvement of the Clean Water System, this water supply will be sufficient to meet the consumption needs of the communities in Sukadana and Sukabares in the Ciomas sub-district of Serang Regency, Banten Province. Furthermore, the Cibanten Reservoir serves an additional purpose by irrigating 159 hectares of rice fields in Sukadana Village at approximately 87 liters per second, as well as supporting tourism in Serang Regency and the broader Banten Province. The challenge of the Clean Water Network System is being addressed through the construction of this system by the Ministry of Public Works and Housing, Directorate General of Water Resources, SNVT Groundwater and Raw Water, and the Cidanau-Ciujung-Cidurian River Basin Agency, Banten Province.

The Importance of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Principles in Public Works and Housing Infrastructure

In 2020-2024 period, it is estimated that the total investment needed to achieve infrastructure development targets in the public works and housing sector is approximately IDR 2,058 trillion. Meanwhile, the state budget can only cover around 30% of that amount, leaving the rest to be dependent on creative financing schemes such as Public-Private Partnerships (PPP). On the other hand, the public works and housing sector is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emission production. It means that infrastructure projects especially in the PWH sectors need to be safeguarded in terms of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and climate change adaptation. In the recent development, there is a significant rise in changing priorities of investors in supporting investment, which is to incorporate Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles. To foster ESG in infrastructure financing, the Ministry of Finance (MoF) Republic of Indonesia has launched ESG Framework and Manual to be applied by the Government Contracting Agency (GCA) as well as Special Mission Vehicles (SMVs) under MoF in undertaking the PPP project which receives government support and facilities. The Ministry of Public Works and Housing is currently preparing numerous PPP projects to achieve the funding gap, one of which is the Maintenance of Bintang Bano Dam and Build Operate, Transfer (BOT) of Mini Hydro Power Plant. As the first unsolicited PPP Project in the water resources sector, the project can be embedded with ESG principles. However, since ESG had not been incorporated since the preparation, the corrective action plan toward required Environment and Social aspects are needed to be applied.

Analisis Pengaruh Pembangunan Detached Breakwater terhadap Perlindungan Garis Pantai di Pulau Bengkalis Menggunakan Penginderaan Jauh

The coastline is the boundary between land and sea water whose position is always changing dynamically. Changes in coastlines are caused by disturbances to sediment transport along onshore, reduced sediment supply, disturbances of buildings, and low condition of the cliffs therefore they can’t cover the waves (Ministry of Public Works and Housing, 2015). The purpose of this study is to determine the response of the coastline after the construction of detached breakwater structure on the north coast of Bengkalis Island. Sentinel-2 imagery data used in this study and then analyzed using the Digital Shorelines Analysis System (DSAS) tool. The results of the analysis show that there are have variations of the shoreline response to the structures that have been built. In the period 2016 – 2022 the coastline hase changes, both accretion and abrasion. The maximum change in the forward coastline is 189.09 meters long with an accretion rate of 30.5 meters/year. While the maximum change in the backward coastline is 144.56 meters long with an abrasion rate of 23.32 meters/year. Overall, the construction of detached breakwaters has a positive impact on the coastline, thus increasing the land area on the north coast of Bengkalis Island.
 

Analisa Nilai OTTV (Overall Thermal Transfer Value) pada Bangunan Pemerintahan di Kota Lhokseumawe

Global warming and the energy crisis are the biggest problems in the world today, many efforts must be made to avoid them. One of them is by continuing to increase the implementation of energy efficient buildings. In Indonesia, energy-efficient buildings must meet the requirements set out in SNI 03-6389-2020 where the maximum limit for the OTTV (Overall Thermal Transfer Value) value is 35 Watt/m² and has been enforced by the Government from now on. However, these requirements have not been fully fulfilled by investors, as well as planning agencies or consulting units. There are still many buildings whose OTTV value is not yet known. As is the case with the object of this research, namely the Lhokseumawe Mayor's Office building. This research aims to calculate and determine the OTTV value for the research object of the Lhokseumawe Mayor's Office building, so that later it will be known whether the building is categorized as an energy efficient building or not. The research method used is an experimental quantitative method using the OTTV Microsoft Excel spreadsheet calculator from the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (BGH-PUPR). The results of this research analysis show that the Lhokseumawe Mayor's Office building has many large openings and has sunlight fenestration, so that the overall OTTV value on the building envelope is below the SNI standard threshold of 35 Watt/m² and can be categorized as an energy efficient building.

Risk Potential Analysis Using Hazard Identication, Risk Assessment and Determine Control (HIRADC) and Job Safety Analysis (JSA) Methods

Lake Tondano Revitalization Project Phase I located in Minahasa Regency, North Sulawesi Province which is a program of the North Sulawesi Provincial Government, namely the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing in the field of Water Resources (SDA). Lake Tondano Revitalization Project Phase I is a semi-automated project, where the tools used are still controlled by humans who have a high level of potential danger and risk. So it requires very careful supervision to prevent hazards that might cause potential hazards that have an adverse impact during and after construction to reduce the impact caused by the risk. The methods used in this study are Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment and Determaine Control (HIRADC) and Job Safety Analysis (JSA) methods. Data collection is carried out by observation, interviews and questionnaire distribution. The results showed that at the stage of identifying potential risks there were 233 potential risks from 9 works in the Lake Tondano Revitalization Project Phase I. The results of the risk assessment that have been carried out using the risk matrix are not very high risk level, high risk level there are 51 potential risks, risk level there are 64 potential risks and low risk there are 118 potential risks and risk control using the HIRADC method involves a hierarchical approach to risk control, namely elimination, substitution, engineering, administration and PPE (personal protective equipment) to get changes in the level of risk in each type of work including no very high risk level, high risk level as many as 4 potential risks, medium risk levels obtained as many as 73 potential risks and low risk there are 156 potential risks and control on risks that have the highest level of risk is to plan JSA in accordance with work procedures in the field by breaking down potential risks into steps and given overall risk control recommendations from each work in the Lake Tondano Revitalization project Phase I. In an effort to create zero accident division K3 or HSE (health, safety and environment) in order to conduct strict supervision and discipline on occupational safety and health supervision in order to avoid potential risks that will occur in the project to be worked on.

Preface

The development of Geotechnical Engineering goes together through the Case Histories considering the geological and geotechnical condition of the site. The most primitive geotechnical case histories may be dated back to 4000 BC in Egypt and until today; Geotechnical case histories have been the backbone of the sustainable growth of the infrastructures for the city and other purposes. The conference on Case Histories in Geotechnical Engineering reflects the motivations of our engineers to exchange knowledge and ideas due to the many problems that arise in the last decade. The growth of the economy of Indonesia recently is amazing, and the same for most Asian countries. Together all these factors have caused the increasing need of geotechnical advisory. The awareness of the demand for keeping up with the geotechnical technology motivated our university with series of workshop and conference about Case histories in Geotechnical Engineering.

Government Budgetary Slack (Case Study at The Directorate General of Highways Ministry of Public Works and Housing)

The purpose of this study is to get an in-depth picture of how the practice of revenue budget gaps in the public sector can occur and the factors that drive it. This research uses qualitative research methods with a case study approach. Data collection was conducted through interviews and supported by documentation and direct observation, the informants involved in this study were managers responsible for the revenue budgeting process at each level. The practice of budget gaps is more aimed at avoiding the risk of not achieving the target, this is also because there is no reward and punishment system for achieving revenue targets. The results showed that pseudo-budget participation and information asympization triggered budget gaps. Factors The lack of strict supervision in the budgeting process and access to stagnant information make the budget gap continue to occur. The risk of this gap practice is that the organization does not know the true optimal potential and the loss of potential income from asset utilization.

Implementation of the Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment and Risk Control (HIRARC) Method on Erection Girder Work of South Japek II Toll Road Construction Project Package 3

The development of infrastructure is progressing rapidly, particularly for National Strategic Projects, such as the construction of the Jakarta-Cikampek Toll Road (Japek) South II Package 3, which is currently in progress. This toll road project also includes the construction of several interchanges that utilize girders in the process. The project commenced during a challenging time when Indonesia was facing the adverse effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, adding an additional obstacle to infrastructure work. Girder Erection Work, in particular, has recorded various types of accidents over the past few years. In response, the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing has issued Ministerial Regulation No. 10 of 2021, which provides guidelines for Construction Safety Management Systems (SMKK). By employing the Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Risk Control (HIRARC) method, it is anticipated that construction practitioners can effectively manage risks and reduce workplace accidents in this project. Additionally, the Probability Impact Matrix (PIM) will be utilized to identify the most likely hazards and risks that could significantly impact the project's implementation in the event of an accident. In this study, out of the 57 variables validated by experts, the respondents identified 17 risks classified as high-risk and determined 8 main/dominant risks in the girder erection work of the Jakarta-Cikampek Toll Road Japek South II Package 3 Project. Subsequently, control measures and mitigations are planned for these 8 main risks.

Project managers competency on project performance of green toll road development project in Indonesia

The Green Road Construction development program is a program that has the potential to reduce carbon emissions from road construction. Currently, the Government of the Republic of Indonesia through the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing together with the Toll Road Business Entity continues to strive to provide the best service to the community using Toll Roads that are applied to all Toll Roads in Indonesia, especially Green Toll Roads. At the implementation stage, it has not been able to run smoothly because there are several constraining factors such as social and environmental aspects. For this reason, this study aims to find out what factors are needed by a Project Manager who carries out the construction. References are taken from various journals and articles that discuss green toll roads around the world and in Indonesia. This research is a combination of qualitative and quantitative (mixed methods) by distributing questionnaires to several respondents. The results of the factor analysis show that the Project Performance factor (Y) is strongly influenced by the determinant factors namely Knowledge (X1) in terms of Time (X1.3), Cost (X1.4) and Procurement (X1.7). Henceforth, project performance (Y) is also influenced by Knowledge (X1), Skill (X2), and Tools & Techniques (X3). Meanwhile, on the other hand, the Project Performance factor (Y) is also influenced by the Green Toll Road (Z).

Management of Land Resettlement Records in a Rural Village in Zimbabwe

Land records are considered proof of ownership, right to land ownership, and boundaries. Land records provide two types of important evidence. First, they often document family relationships. Second, they place individuals in a specific time and place. This study sought to examine the management of land resettlement records in one of the rural districts in Zimbabwe (this rural district will be anonymously referred to as the “Village”). The research problem was triggered by the heirs of a late neighbour who were on the verge of losing their homestead due to lack of documentation stating the ownership of their acquired land. It remains uncertain whether proper records management practices are being adhered to in this rural village. Therefore, this article sought to determine the types of records created at this village. Furthermore, the article meant to establish the processes and procedures involved in the management of land resettlement records at this village and also to identify if there are challenges faced in the management of such and what these are. The constructivism paradigm and a qualitative research methodology were applied. A case study design was used. The findings revealed that the records were kept at the village clerk’s homestead. The major challenges identified were the lack of proper records management systems, the lack of storage facilities, the invisibility of the governmental archival support structures such as the National Archives of Zimbabwe and trained records officers. The study recommends a collaboration between the National Archives of Zimbabwe, the Ministry of Lands, Agriculture, Water, Climate and Rural Resettlement and the Ministry of Local Government, Public Works and National Housing, including the Village being researched, so as to train them about proper records management practices.

Bento Almeida d’Eça: Hydraulic Agriculture under the umbrella of Engineers in Nineteenth Century Portugal

In mid-nineteenth century Portugal, the practice of irrigation was deemed to be completely backwards in comparison with the prevailing European standards. Distant were the times of Al-Andalus, when a so-called green revolution occurred on the Iberian Peninsula. Within this context, Agricultural Hydraulics gained momentum as a scientific field. Although water governance had a long run, the ‘politicisation’ of water issues clearly intensified in the Regeneration political regime. From 1851 onwards, the stability required for national material progress was ensured. The country had been struggling to build roads, railways, telegraphs, ports and, therefore, the Ministry of Public Works was established in 1852 to undertake these architectural and engineering projects. This paper argues that not only due to rivers’ manipulation for agriculture, but also to the rising status of engineers, Agricultural Hydraulics was under the Ministry of Public Works and, consequently, on the sphere of engineers rather than agronomists. Focusing on the making of a military engineer as an expert on Agricultural Hydraulics by sending him abroad and fostering his literary education, this paper reveals how this knowledge was appropriated and transformed into new projects for the Tagus River. Moreover, contrary to recent review that Hydraulic Services were launched in Portugal by 1884, based on the “Plan for Organization of Hydrographic Services on the mainland of Portugal”, this paper highlights the crucial role played by the Portuguese engineer Bento Fortunato Almeida d’Eça through his work as Superintendent of the Tagus River and its Tributaries, twenty years earlier.

A Study of Liquefaction Potential on Retaining Wall and Embankment in Parangtritis Village

Parangtritis Village located in Bantul Regency, Special Region of Yogyakarta. Previous studies showed that the Opak Active Fault line passes right through the east side of the construction. This study aims to examine the potential for liquefaction in the retaining wall and embankment structures in Parangtritis Village in the event of an earthquake in the area. The subsurface evaluation was based on N-SPT drilling data as well as soil data at 4 drill point. The bedrock acceleration value was determined based on SNI 2833:2016. To obtain a more specific bedrock peak acceleration value, the Indonesian Spectra Design seismic data was used by the Directorate General of Highway, Ministry of Public Works and Housing, where the PGA bedrock acceleration value is 0.558 g. The stages of liquefaction potential analysis are divided into three stages, Cyclic Stress Ratio, Cyclic Resistance Ratio, Factor of Safety. Liquefaction Potential Index analysis as a determinant of potential damage. Data processing results at four drill points indicate that the soil layer at several depths has liquefaction potential with a safety factor value of <1. The results of these calculations show that the LPI value is in the LPI vulnerable > 15, indicating a high liquefaction potential.

Evaluation of Liquefaction Potential Index in the Educational Infrastructure Reconstruction Project at the University of Tadulako, Palu City, Central Sulawesi

On September 28, 2018, The Palu-Koro fault triggered an earthquake of Mw 7.5. at a depth of 20 km and 72 km northeast of Palu City. As a result, the University of Tadulako suffered significant damage post this earthquake. The Ministry of Public Works and Housing was assigned to reconstruct this location, which was located near the epicentre, and there are alluvium deposits of the Holocene age with loose sand soil and shallow groundwater levels on-site. Based on the Indonesian Seismic Code SNI 1726:2019, it is necessary to propose liquefaction potential and mitigation for building planning. The study aims to calculate the Safety Factor (S.F.) against liquefaction using a simplified procedure by Seed-Idriss and developed methods by Idriss-Boulanger. The S.F. was used as an input to determine the Liquefaction Potential Index (LPI) by Iwasaki et al. The study showed different categories of LPI values. The highest LPI value was found at BH-05, with a very high liquefaction potential. The soil depths susceptible to liquefaction are up to 9 meters. Application of deep foundation penetrating liquefiable soil layer is recommended as the mitigation. It is necessary to conduct further studies on the deep foundation analysis to be applied to this location.

Implementation of Livable House Standards for Earthquake Resistance in Bandung Regency

The BSPS (Bantuan Stimulan Perumahan Swadaya) program organized by the Directorate General of Housing of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing is a program implemented as a form of improving the quality of self-help housing. Although simple, building like this requires sufficient resistance to earthquakes. The results of the calculation of earthquake resistance that begins with loading the roof obtained a live load of 1.38 N, a super dead load of 0.75 N, and a dead load of 132102.5 N. Further testing on the calculation of ring beams results in ring beams being able to withstand a load of 1 .7191 kN with the help of the column interaction diagram states that the column is able to withstand a load of 252.6964 kN. The results of the ground spectrum response test show that Bandung district has a high earthquake risk and a class II risk period. Static power testing in the x and y directions is 270 kg and 260 kg. the level deviation on the x-axis is 0.0706500 mm and on the y-axis is 0.05575000 mm. This has proven the house to be resistant to earthquakes. Subsequent work can be in accordance with the standards given during the construction process. This building is resistant to earthquakes but the work requires more careful supervision.
