Kajian Orientasi Bangunan (Studi Kasus : Kampung Bandar, Kota Pekanbaru)

Abstract

Kampung Bandar is a dense and irregular area with the highest population density in the city of Pekanbaru, which is located on the Siak River and was the starting point for the formation of Pekanbaru City. This situation influences the determination of building orientation which shapes the character of the area. In urban design science, building orientation is an important aspect of architectural design that can improve the comfort, health, sustainability and beauty of a building. This research examines the orientation of buildings in Kampung Bandar and the factors that influence it. The method is descriptive quantitative by conducting a field survey. To simplify the analysis process, segments are divided based on road accessibility conditions that follow the contour of the land, namely the transition zone between the water's edge, the transition zone and the land zone. Observation of the area by examining 3 variables, namely building accessibility, building function and building materials. The resulting data is in the form of an existing map of the research location which is redrawn based on building function, building materials, road conditions and building orientation. The results of this research found that the residential function is located on the inside of each segment, while the commercial function is on the outside. The orientation of buildings in Bandar villages faces building accessibility such as the surrounding road network. The factors behind building orientation are building accessibility and building function. Meanwhile, building materials have no effect on determining the orientation of buildings in Kampung Bandar. These factors result from regional growth and community adaptation to the available land
