Dulang Module in Determining the Proportion of Bengkilas in Palembang Limas House (original) (raw)

Design Rule and Social Dimensions of the Bengkilas of Vernacular Limas Houses in South Sumatra

International Journal on Advanced Science, Engineering and Information Technology, 2021

This article explores the guidelines used to theoretically and empirically determine the bengkilas' measurement of Limas house to understand how the social dimension is integrated into the vernacular housing design process. This goal was achieved by conducting a multi-case study, mixed methods, interviews with four interviewees chosen purposively because of their limas house ownership and recognition of expertise in its architecture, and measurements on 30 limas houses in Palembang, South Sumatra, Indonesia. The data was collected quantitatively through measurements of the dimensions of the house and qualitatively through interviews with community leaders. Previous research literature was also used to cross-examine various interviewees' statements. This literature was likely to be local studies that cannot be avoided due to the lack of international publications related to the limas house. The guideline used in determining the size of bengkilas is the dulang module system and the step count system. The social dimension can be seen from the priority of space to share food in the house based on the dish module. Based on the study results, a theory was developed which explained that the origins of bengkilas were semi-public space instead of social stratification. Governments trying to revitalize vernacular housing for reasons of tourism, culture, or preservation, can build on the findings of this study to build sustainable housing design. This article contributes to the understanding of vernacular design that exists today.

Assessing Spaces In Malay Traditional House

Advances in Environmental Biology

A Traditional Malay house is a vernacular house improvised from generations to generations by the Malay community and is now outfitted to fill their basic needs, culture and their environment. In the early days, a Malay house is usually called 'rumah asas' or basic house and 'pondok' or a cabin. These simple kind of houses were developed during the rise of implementing traditions before becoming bigger and more complex. This papers tries to describe and architecturally analyse the co-relation between one custom and ritual in Malay culture and how its effect the design of their house. It's expected that this paper can start a further discussion for an architect and practitioners in the housing design in Malaysia to be more sensitive in addressing this cultural issue in their terrace houses design.

Surveying on the Cultural Approaches for the Melaka Malay Houses

Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2012

The architecture of Malay traditional houses is unique and has attractive features. One can see that all these features are not only functioning as ornamentation, but it relates to the Malay lifestyle which include religion and their culture. The early design of the Malay house was resulted mainly to the responsive climatic. If we look further detail, the Malay traditional house can be categorized according to the origin of the Malaysia states. The obvious differences of each state show the distinct creativity and skills of the locals in fulfil the need of their local culture.

TYPOLOGY OF PADANG TRADITIONAL HOUSES (Case Study: Kuranji & Pauh) Desy Aryanti, Bung Hatta University Padang, Indonesia desy73aryanti@gmail.com d_aryadana@yahoo.com

ABSTRACT The writing is to trace and find out the origin of the Padang traditional house, typology , and its characteristics, in terms of the system of spatial, physical, and persolekan. According to Tambo of Minangkabau, that the boundaries of the Minangkabau region consists of two parts: Darek and Rantau. Darek is the beginning of Minangkabau region consisting of three LUHAK (Tanah Datar, Agam, Limo Puluah Koto). Rantau is the expansion area of the Minangkabau that formed many community in every Luhak, they are : • Rantau Luhak Agam are West Coast of Pariaman to Air Bangis, Lubuk Sikaping, and Pasaman . • Rantau Luhak Tanah Datar are Kubung Tigo Baleh West Coast and South Coast, from Padang to Indrapura , Kerinci , and Muara Labuh . • Rantau Luhak Lima Puluh Kota are Bangkinang, Kampar Kiri and Kampar Kanan, Rokan to Negeri Sembilan Malaysia . In this research, there were took two region as the case study, Kuranji and Pauh. With this study, the result can be the basis to determine how the form of Minangkabau traditional house which is located in rantau region. It is recommended that further research be conducted to complement and find out if there is a similar form of traditional house traditional of Padang Malays in Malaysia.

Traditional Malay House in Negeri Sembilan: Cultural influence in design and construction

Environment-Behaviour Proceedings Journal

The architecture of the Traditional Malay houses reflects the physical environment to portray the family and community manifestation of the cultures and behaviours. This research attempts to discover the cultural manifestation that has affected the design and construction. The case study method is applied, specifically focusing on a case study of Rumah Telapak Ibu Soko, Tanah Datar 48, located in Kuala Pilah, Malaysia, consisting of on-site physical measurement and observation and an interview with the owner. The findings are part of explored social values and the impact of cultural influence on design and construction.

Typology of Malay Traditional Building Construction Case Study: Bawi Malay House In Kampung Empat Balai, Kampar

JHSS (JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND SOCIAL STUDIES)

Kampung Empat Balai is one of the old villages in Kuok District, Kampar Regency. The kampung comprises traditional Malay houses as cultural heritages that urge to preserve. The house has a unique roof shape and carvings pattern. However, the house is endangering due to a lack of maintenance. This research has aimed to identify the construction of houses that belong to the Bawi ethnic group people. A qualitative descriptive approach has been carried out to investigate and analyse this Malay house. This research found that the Bawi's house has a curving roof type which is known as part of the Lotiok roof type. This stilt house has a structural system in the form of a series of line elements with non-rigid joints that bind each other using notches and pegs as a connection system that is anticipated for earthquakes. Materially, this Bawi'House uses wooden-based materials throughout its construction systems, such as floors, walls, columns, girder beams and roof trusses.Malay hous...

Comparative Study of Traditional House Forms in Indonesia: Loloan and Bugis Stilt Houses

IJMRAP, 2021

Indonesia has a diverse culture. One of the cultural products is traditional architecture. The Loloan stilt house is a traditional house in Loloan Village, Bali. The shape was inspired by a Bugis stilt house, then adapted to the Loloan environment. This study examines the form of Loloan stilt houses and Bugis stilt houses for comparison. This study aims to see the changes in the shape of the Loloan stilt house. The method used in this study is a comparative method using observation and literature study tactics. The results of this study indicate that the Loloan stilt house has similarities with the Bugis stilt house. The difference between the two is in the details of the building such as ornament, roof arrangement, room arrangement, terrace, and the shape of the pillars.

Bridge and Box: A Typological Study on the Construction Systems of Malay Houses in the Malay Peninsula

Journal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering, 2015

Malay houses have a great variation in construction systems despite their consistencies. With the coding method shown in this study, construction elements and their relations are presented in both words and symbols. In this study there are 95 house cases that have been coded and studied according to their construction processes. The study shows that the construction systems of Malay houses are composed of the house and its encroachment, and each house is composed of supports and a roof. The two major systems of support are the "bridge" and "box". Their roof variation generates five sub-systems of house construction. Encroachments can be divided into encroached semi-house (Es), encroached house (Eh), and encroached selang (Esg). There are 15 Es, 3 Eh, and 2 Esg in the 95 cases studied. The completion of house construction coding facilitates the description of the house construction, comprehension of uniqueness and limitation of house forms, along with the establishment of Malay house construction systems. The evolution and adaptability of the Malay house construction system can thus be understood more precisely.
