Ichlas Wahid, Maula Nafi, Ronny Wahyu Wantara, Imah Luluk Kusminah — Thu, 21 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) is commonly used in construction due to its precision
and efficiency. This research focuses on assessing the tensile strength of ST 37 steel welded
using GTAW with different tungsten electrode diameters and current settings. The electrode
sizes used were 1.6 mm, 2.4 mm, and 3.2 mm, paired with current levels of 60 A, 80 A, and
100 A. Tensile strength testing was performed following ASTM E8 standards. The results
indicated that the 3.2 mm electrode with 100 A current produced the highest tensile strength
at 43.13 kg/mm², while the 1.6 mm electrode with 60 A current yielded the lowest tensile
strength at 29.75 kg/mm². These findings demonstrate that higher current levels in GTAW
welding result in greater tensile strength for ST 37 steel, offering valuable guidance for
optimizing welding parameters in industrial settings

Thu, 21 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Currently, the ability to fulfill the community's need for housing is very limited, and
this is due to the decreasing supply of land. To fulfill this gap, the private sector has also
attempted to meet housing needs in the form of apartments. Apartment numbers have grown
rapidly. However, in terms of pricing, it can be said to be fairly expensive, particularly for
middle-class people. Apartment, with the smallest type being a studio (22 m2), making it
affordable to middle-class people. However, this condition also raises concerns about
residents' comfort, especially as the number of family members increases. If one wants to buy
another apartment unit, price is also a consideration. This study aimed to determine the level
of affordability and comfort for middle-class people.
The method used was descriptive-quantitative with primary data collection by
conducting surveys with the residents and gathering reports provided by management. The
findings revealed that in comparison to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, the needs of residents
in Menara Rungkut Apartment that are met are physiological, security in having a place to
stay, and a little social fulfillment. In terms of affordability, they chose Menara Rungkut
Apartment because of its low price and proximity to the office. Meanwhile, in terms of
comfort, residents feel quite comfortable because of its safe, fairly clean, quiet, and easily
accessible public facilities. However, it is still expected that the management can improve
building maintenance so that it becomes a more comfortable environment for residents,
particularly middle-class residents

Surabaya is one of the capitals of East Java Province, Indonesia, and it also has many tourist attractions
that are frequently visited by local and international tourists, including Tunjungan Street, the Old
Town, and many more. Although Surabaya is known as the City of Heroes, on the other hand, in the
eastern region, specifically in South Medayu, Rungkut District, there is a diverse and interesting
educational urban farming tourism. The location of this village is very strategic, serving as a center for
the sale and education of organic plants, as well as livestock and fisheries, with various types of organic
plants, including water spinach, mustard greens, lettuce, spinach, and other freshwater fish. Our
partner is an MSME engaged in the field of urban farming. The current condition of the partner is the
limitation of animal feed production tools to create a zero-waste environment. The increasing number
of residents from Dusun Medayu joining has created a positive platform for its members and also
provides economic benefits; therefore, the competition in that business is becoming more intense.
Therefore, the ability and knowledge of digital-based marketing are essential for partners to possess.
This Community Service Program will support short-term activities such as business coaching and
digital marketing training. In the medium term, as a continuation after the 2024 Community Service
Program, the Implementation Team will conduct a reassessment of local businesses that have the
potential to support the development of current partner enterprises. This mapping is expected to serve
as a reference for the sustainability of the partners' independent programs.

Putu Eka Dewi Karunia Wati, Hery Murnawan, Vava Surya Pambudi, Wandah Widyantika — Thu, 21 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000

UD. Gadjah Delta is an industry that manufactures kitchen equipment, including soto
containers, with a production capacity of up to 1,400 - 1,500 pieces per day. The production
process for the soto container begins with cutting the raw material, bending the left and right
edges, perforating the handle ends, and finally, cutting a half-circle at the handle ends. The
perforation and cutting of the handle ends are carried out using two manual machines
operated by two operators. The production results from these two machines have shown a
relatively high reject rate. The design of a punch machine, as developed in previous research
by Wati & Hery (2023), led to a significant increase in production. Based on this research, this
community service project is implementing the design by creating a punch machine that
performs both perforation and cutting of the soto container handles simultaneously. The
newly designed punch machine can produce more output than before, reaching 375-380 pieces
per hour. Additionally, it reduces the need for operators, previously requiring two, which
results in a cost saving of IDR 77.4 per piece

Putri Suci Mawariza, Michella Beatrix , M Fathin Ramadhan — Thu, 21 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Contingency costs play an important role during the construction phase, as accurately
estimating project contingency costs is one of the keys to successful project management. The
improper use of contingency costs can lead to various problems. In determining contingency
costs, practitioners have traditionally used a highly subjective approach. This study will
discuss the weights of variables that influence the magnitude of contingency costs. The risk
evaluation carried out focuses on risks related to project construction execution. The use of
fuzzy logic with the weight risk analysis method is considered highly appropriate due to the
many advantages of fuzzy logic analysis, which can help make risk analysis more objective.
The study respondents consist of 12 experts from 6 reviewed construction projects. The
analysis reveals that internal variables, such as Safety, Personnel, and Equipment and
Material, have a greater impact on contingency costs compared to external variables. Safety
ranks highest with a weight of 0.223, followed by Personnel at 0.209 and Equipment and
Material at 0.171. External variables, including Natural and Social Variables, have lower
weights of 0.101 and 0.073, respectively, indicating their smaller influence compared to
internal factors.

product quality affect consumer behavior in purchasing decisions. Employing a qualitative
research approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews with 30 consumers and 15
SME owners to gain insights into their perceptions and experiences. The interviews were
analyzed thematically to identify key determinants that impact purchasing decisions. The
findings reveal that product image significantly influences consumers' purchasing decisions, with
positive brand associations enhancing consumer trust and preference. Additionally, product
quality emerged as a crucial factor that reinforces the relationship between product image and
purchasing decisions. This study highlights the need for SMEs to focus on developing a strong
product image and ensuring high-quality offerings to attract and retain customers. The research
provides important implications for SME owners in formulating effective marketing strategies to
enhance competitiveness and sustainability in a competitive market. Future research directions
are also discussed, including the exploration of other factors that may influence consumer
purchasing decisions within the SME sector.

This study explore how the concept of Omotenashi is applied in culinary tourism in
Wonoagung Village in Malang, East Java, and how it impacts the development of sustainable
tourism villages. The Japanese service concept known as Omotenashi emphasizes hospitality
and attention to detail. By applying this concept to the presentation of Wonoagung's signature
dishes, such as tiwul, ampok, and krengken, tourists have enjoyed a unique and memorable
experience, increased their satisfaction, and increased the number of tourist visits. The results
of the study indicate that the implementation of Omotenashi not only improves the tourist
experience but also provides economic and social benefits to the local community. The larger
number of tourists has increased income, created jobs, and encouraged the village community
to be better. However, to keep village tourism running, issues such as maintaining service
standards, developing infrastructure, and preserving local culture must be addressed.
Therefore, to develop sustainable tourism in Wonoagung Village, the government, private
sector, and local communities must work together

Naufal Abdillah, Aidil Primasetya Armin — Thu, 21 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Timetable management is one of the major challenges faced by many schools, including SMPN 1 Sedati
in Sidoarjo Regency. The manual process, which is time-consuming and prone to errors, often creates
obstacles in creating effective schedules, resulting in several days of completion. To address this issue,
a web-based scheduling system was developed to simplify and expedite the scheduling process. This
system is designed to automatically generate schedules within a maximum of 30 minutes, considering
factors such as teacher availability and curriculum requirements. Through this community service
project, the system is expected to assist the school in managing class schedules more efficiently,
optimizing both time and resources. The implementation results show that the system significantly
reduces the time needed for schedule creation while providing flexibility in school data management.

Strategy to Increase Sales of Coconut Shell Charcoal Briquettes UKM Emas Hitam

Siti Mundari, Herlina — Thu, 21 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000

The use of coconut shell waste is generally used for fuel, household purposes and if sold the
price is very cheap. UKM Emas Hitam makes a high-value product, namely making coconut
shell charcoal briquettes. The advantage of coconut shell charcoal briquettes with other
alternative fuels is that they can produce greater heat. Apart from that, charcoal briquettes
from coconut shells are also safer, environmentally friendly, because they do not damage
plants and do not cause smoke. The problem that occurs with the UKM Emas Hitam is that
its products are purchased by middlemen from Tuban and Bojonegoro in limited quantities
and sold wholesale packaged in sacks without any branding. With this method of selling,
products cannot compete in the market and are sold at low prices. The solution offered to
overcome this sales problem so that it can be increased is that information media, promotion
and product sales are needed in the form of a website. With the website, it is hoped that it can
reach a wider market and make it easier for consumers to find complete information about
the products being sold. Coupled with strong branding and an attractive appearance on the
website, it will further increase customer trust, making it easier to get new customers.
Meanwhile, the solution to the problem of products being sold wholesale, packaged in sacks
without any branding, requires good packaging to be branded as a product brand so that the
product can compete in the market and be sold at a higher price.

improve the guarantee capacity and sustainability of the industry. The findings contribute to
the literature by proposing an integrated internal audit approach for financial risk mitigation
in the credit guarantee industry.

Community participation in urban waste management

Thu, 21 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000

Surabaya, one of Indonesia's largest cities, faces a significant problem related to the increasing
volume of waste. Although there have been efforts from the city government through waste
management initiatives and waste-to-energy processing technology, the waste problem still
needs to be fully resolved. Community participation is considered an essential factor in the
success of sustainable waste management. A qualitative descriptive method describes
community participation in urban waste management in Surabaya. Data were collected
through in-depth interviews, direct observation, and documentation of related policies. The
study subjects included residents involved in the waste management program and
government and private sector parties collaborating in waste management. The study results
indicate that community participation through the Waste Bank program and other social
innovations significantly reduces Surabaya's waste management burden. However, the
varying levels of community participation are a challenge in themselves. Policies supported
by the government and social innovations have been shown to increase the effectiveness of
waste management but still require increased active participation and public awareness. A
more effective and environmentally friendly waste management system can be created with
a collaborative approach involving all parties.

Andi Patriadi, Jaka Purnama, Paschal Rumihin, Denni Pramudia Pamungkas — Thu, 21 Nov 2024 00:00:00 +0000

This study focuses on the development of a thematic map using Geographic Information
Systems (GIS) to assist Kalipecabean Village officials in monitoring and managing public
health conditions. The current mapping system lacked the necessary detail to identify the
locations of healthcare service points and specific health issues, such as maternal health,
elderly care, and stunting prevalence. Through consultations with village officials and data
collection from healthcare posts, both spatial and non-spatial data were integrated into a
comprehensive thematic map. This map provides a clear visualization of health conditions
across the village, enabling more targeted and efficient healthcare interventions. The map was
created in both printed and digital formats, with the digital version allowing for regular
updates and access via online platforms. The implementation of GIS has enhanced the
village’s ability to manage public health data securely, minimizing the risks of data loss.
However, challenges related to the training of village officials in GIS usage and the availability
of technological infrastructure need to be addressed for long-term sustainability. The results
of this study demonstrate the effectiveness of GIS-based thematic mapping in improving
public health monitoring and resource allocation in rural areas, offering a model for other
communities facing similar challenges.
