Knowledge of primary survey on lowering consciousness among Pasar Petisah citizens

Lowered consciousness is a life-threatening condition that necessitates prompt assessment and first aid. One crucial method for addressing such emergencies is the primary survey, which aims to identify and treat life-threatening conditions quickly. Pasar Petisah, one of the largest and busiest markets in Medan, is a high-risk location for such emergencies due to its crowded nature. Therefore, the community at Pasar Petisah needs to have a strong understanding of the primary survey procedure. This study is a descriptive cross-sectional analysis that uses primary data collected through questionnaires. The sample size consists of 97 subjects, selected using non-probability sampling techniques. The results indicate that among the 97 participants, only 3 (3.1%) demonstrated a good level of knowledge about the primary survey, 41 (42.3%) had a sufficient level of knowledge, and 53 (54.6%) had a lacking level of knowledge. Regarding readiness to perform the primary survey, 61 individuals (62.9%) reported feeling prepared, 23 individuals (23.7%) were doubtful, and 13 individuals (13.4%) felt unprepared.

BASIC PRINCIPLES OF CONSTRUCTION AND REPAIR OF CIVIL BUILDINGS USING BIM-TECHNOLOGIES

Problem statement. The peculiarities of the construction of civilian buildings consist in ensuring a reduction in energy consumption, costs for their maintenance and a harmonious combination with the urban environment; the cost reduction of buildings that are rented out; reducing the duration of civil buildings construction. In the process of building civil buildings, a large number of uncoordinated operations may occur, which lead to a decrease in the quality of the finished housing and material losses. Thanks to the use of BIM-technologies, it is possible to maximally take into account such inconsistent moments and make the construction process more efficient. Purpose of the article is to analyse the practical experience of BIM-technologies using for the construction and repair of civil buildings, including the use of concrete with polymer addmitures as a material for the repair of civil buildings from the point of view of increasing their service life. Conclusion. Today, the sphere of construction production is changing quite dynamically. More recently, there were no materials that would allow to achieve qualitatively different results. These are primarily polymer additives for concrete, which are currently available in large quantities. However, the use of polymer additives requires a full knowledge of their properties. This is necessary for the reason that such components, in case of non-compliance with the rules of their use, can nullify the efforts of all project participants. If you have a sufficient level of knowledge about the components used by this or that production, there are situations when weather conditions can radically change the result of construction work, but not always in a more favorable direction. It is important to take into account not only information about the interaction of many factors, but also the need to build a civil building that meets the thermal and technical characteristics of modern construction. Not only the profit from the planned project depends on this, but also the living conditions and comfort of many generations of the population of our country.
