Muhammad Ammar Zahran — 2023-01-27

The Sales Area Manager Bandung office, which is located in the city of Bandung, is one of the work locations that cover the
working area of Bandung and its surroundings. This Sales Area Office was built in the 90s, but originally functioned as a TNI
office. In 2017 the new office was moved to PT. XYZ. However, when I made field observations. The fire protection conditions
installed in the building are only Light Fire Extinguishers. Even though SNI and NFPA explain that a building with an area of
more than 500 m2 must have a hydrant pillar installation, while a sales office with an area of 1,827 m2 only has active fire
protection in the form of a Light Fire Extinguisher or APAR. Therefore, this report contains planning and analysis of the pillar
hydrant system and water requirements for extinguishing the hydrant used in the Sales Area Manager Office Building located in
the city of Bandung. With planning referring to the NFPA 14 standard, this research was conducted by observing the Marketing
Office of PT. XYZ which is located in Bandung City in April-March 2022. Observation data processing was carried out at the
Fire Safety Engineering Study Program, Faculty of Engineering, Jakarta State University in June-August 2022. From the design
results, pillar hydrants have been installed, it can be written that the capacity of the extinguishing media used needed to
overcome the fire in the sales area management building is 85,171 liters of water. Based on NFPA 14 for building sales area
management, the number of pillars needed to protect the building from fire hazards is 5 pieces. The pump power required for the
installation of a hydrant pillar is 12.54 hp. Installation of pipes used above the ground and around the building.

Cahaya Asa Rahmatillah — 2023-01-27

ABSTRACT

RAHMATILLAH, C. A, SUTRISNO, H. H., SARI, Y. 2022. The Effect of Adding Silica from Rice Husk Ash to CFRP Composite on Thermal Properties.

The increasing use of CFRP composites for various applications, particularly in the automotive field, emphasizes its importance in the analysis of the thermal properties. In the effort to improve the thermal properties of CFRP composites, an experiment was carried out in the form of adding silica from rice husk ash which theoretically has a high melting point and can reduce the rate of fire propagation of material. This research was conducted to determine the effect of the addition of silica from rice husk ash on the thermal stability of CFRP composites. Composite samples were made using epoxy resin, unidirectional long continuous carbon fiber, and silica from rice husk ash with various compositions: 0% (without silica), 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, and 25%. The manufacturing process is carried out using the Hand Lay-Up method and were tested using a Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA). The resulting thermogravimetric curve generated the data of thermal stability indicators values in the form of extrapolated onset temperature, mass change, and decomposition temperature. Based on the results of the research, it can be concluded that the addition of 15% silica from rice husk ash is the sample with the highest thermal stability value and generally, the addition of silica from rice husk ash to the CFRP composite can increase its thermal properties and can withstand ambient temperatures up to 405.9° C.

Key Words: CFRP composite, silica, thermal properties

Analysis of Burnt Area Mapping Methode Relativized Burn Ratio (RBR) Using Image Satellite Sentinel-2 Case Study of Peatland Fire in Riau Province

Reva Alfian — 2023-01-27

Riau Province is an area that is prone to forest and land fires, especially in peat ecosystem areas which are flammable during the dry season. This study aims to analyze information on the distribution map of the severity of peatland areas that have been burned from Sentinel-2 satellite imagery data which has high temporal and spasial resolution. The method used in this study is to use the method Relativized Burn Ratio (RBR). The calculated value of the RBR can be used to assess the severity of the burned area. The range of values in the RBR is between -0.5 to +1.3 which refers to the source United States Geological Survey (USGS) so that later it can be classified. The analysis process in processing image data requires data in the form of distribution of peatlands, image maps before burning and after burning. Calculation processing and analysis requires the help of a Geographic Information System (GIS) application, in this case the SNAP application (Sentinel Aplication Platform) and ArcGis are used to process image data and the process of classifying the severity of the burned area. The results of this study are a map of the severity of peat forest fires in the Bagan Sinembah District area, Rokan Hilir Regency, Riau Province from July 13 2019 to August 17 2019. The total area of burned land is 6348.68 hectares. Meanwhile, 48,403.08 hectares of land were not affected by the fires. In order to obtain the results of the percentage of fires as much as 12% of the total area.
