Fala Gaba-gaba is a traditional house with most of the building material coming from sago trees. Where sago trees are plants that grow a lot in eastern Indonesia including Maluku, North Maluku and Papua. Made from natural materials, coupled with an opening arrangement that adapts to the local climate makes the traditional house "fala gaba-gaba" as one of the energy-efficient buildings. The purpose of this study is to describe the construction of a traditional house "fala gaba-gaba" from the foundation, body and roof of the building associated with Energy Saving Buildings. The conclusion that can be drawn is one of the embodiments of energy-efficient buildings, this can be proven by placing the orientation of the building towards the direction of the wind and sun, wall and floor materials used, placement of openings that can maximize lighting and natural acceleration and building type which is a stilt house can maximize lighting and natural air.

Humans realised the importance of housing since the dawn of history. The first man used the caves as shelter. When agricultural activities dominated the life style of humans, villages started to be constructed. Later these were developed into cities. The dawn of civilization started in Iraq. The inhabitants in that time used the available natural materials in their construction. Reviewing the progress of engineering practices of ancient Iraq, reveals the facts that the inhabitants were aware of the principles of construction and engineering. The materials used and the design of the buildings were very suitable from both environmental and engineering perspectives. This work is a critical review of the progress and development of engineering practices and construction materials used in ancient Mesopotamia

The purpose of this study, 2369 street furniture at the campus mentioned to the thesis study named “Generating a GIS-Based Campus Street Furniture Information System (YEDBIS): Example of Kanuni Campus - Karadeniz Technical University” are to question the harmony statuses of space form, actual activity in space, space size, natural materials used space, usage density of space, surface materials of space, users, and the other of them. The harmony statuses of the street furniture were fixed by observation works and field determinations at the campus. Findings obtained observations were recorded to identification cards by writing “0” value for disharmony, “1” value for partly harmony and “2” value for harmony. Then, the data were analyzed in YEDBIS, which is based on GIS. Then, the data were analyzed in YEDBIS, which is based on GIS, by using ArcMap 10.0 programme. However, due to the absence of web support generated for the YEDBIS, with current data querying and analysis of this data was carried out only in a computer where YEDBIS is located.<br><br> The results of the analysis indicates that 2369 street furniture were found to be disharmony with space form, with surface materials of space, with natural materials used space and with other street furniture in space, and to be partly harmony actual activity in space, space size, usage density of space and users. Also, the regions and nearby around of the buildings at the campus where were disharmony, partly harmony and harmony of the street furniture were established by using YEDBIS.

The purpose of this study is to describe the traditional kitchen appliances used by Javanese women. This explanation is based on deciphering its shape and structure, and semantic deciphering. The natural materials used are always environmentally friendly and have a trustworthy charge that can be delivered transparently or clandestinely, The research method used was descriptive qualitative. The methods of collecting the used data were observation, and in-depth interviews. The method of research analysis was by decomposing the lingual unit component of the traditional kitchen lexicon compiler from the derivative word into a basic form by utilizing the technique direct divide elements in the units of form and meaning. The findings of the research are the rules of forming lingual units for traditional kitchen appliances from the basic forms to derivative forms. The rules of formation in the word formation are produced by lexicon reconstruction, while the rules of formation in the meaning field are generated by semantic developers originating from coastal culture. The description of natural material based on the analysis of the internal structure of lingual units is obtained by the coherence of circular relations: sign-concept-functions-cultural values-sign.

The use of a particular material in the automotive industry is determined by its properties in the aspect of safety and the effects on the natural environment starting from production to its liquidation. We are constantly striving to reduce the costs of materials used while increasing the strength properties and the production of non-natural materials, e.g. composites. Among the modern materials appearing in the production of cars, a growing share of high-strength steels, plastics as well as light alloys based on aluminum and magnesium is observed. This article presents selected materials and technologies used in the automotive industry from the point of view of their impact on safety and environmental protection.
