Vernacular buildings in Indonesia, especially vernacular buildings of East Java, are increasingly diminishing. Many efforts have been made to maintain the existence of vernacular buildings, one of which is ex-situ conservation by re-using it adaptively as a tourist destination as found in Kampoeng Djawi Wonosalam. Translocation of vernacular buildings to new locations and new function causes changes in vernacular buildings, particularly in its structure. Changes occur as an adaption to new locations and new activities that will be accommodated. The objective of this paper is to describe the structural changes in vernacular buildings as the result of translocation. Qualitative descriptive method is used to find the structural changes, so the results obtained are actual facts. Changes that occur then analyzed with the concept of adaptive exoskeleton building. According to the results of observations and analysis, changes that occur in vernacular building translocation are caused by resilience, safety, and visual factors, as well as fulfillment of new activities.

Arsitektur melayu memiliki tipologi yang sangat banyak, diantaranya rumah melayu Limas, rumah Lontiak, rumah Begonjong, rumah beratap Layar dan Bersayap, rumah Melayu Peranakan (campuran etnis China), serta beberapa tipikal rumah melayu lainnya. Selain memiliki 4 (empat) ruangan yaitu selasar, rumah induk, telo dan penanggah, rumah melayu juga memiliki ornamen yang terdapat pada atap lisplank dan dinding serta tiang rumah. Salah satu rumah tradisional yang ada di kabupaten Kampar yaitu Rumah Lontiok (Lentik) Melayu Majo. Tulisan ini mengidentifikasi dan mendokumentasikan rumah ini sebagai salah satu bangunan melayu yang perlu dijaga dan dilestarikan. Metode penelitian kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi kasus digunakan dalam penelitian ini dikarenakan objek penelitian yang sudah hilang dimakan usia. Teori tentang arsitektur Melayu dan ornamen bangunan Melayu sebagai background knowledge dengan didukung informasi yang diperoleh dari literatur dan data dilapangan serta pelaku kegiatan dalam lingkup penelitian. Pengolahan dan analisis data dilanjutkan dengan mengevaluasi dan membuat sketsa dan penggambaran ulang, kemudian diakhiri dengan penyusunan hasil temuan lapangan. Secara umum rumah ini dibagi kedalam 2 (dua) masa bangunan, bagian pertama yaitu rumah induk, dan yang kedua yaitu dapur, terdapat penghubung antara rumah induk dan dapur. Rumah melayu Majo merupakan bangunan bertipologi panggung dengan ciri khas atap Lontiak. Ornamen yang pertama kali terlihat pada rumah ini adalah Selembayung atau Tanduk Buang, terdapat pula ornamen seperti tombak terhunus yang disebut tombak-tombak begitu juga dengan sayap layang-layang yang terletak pada keempat sudut atap. Bermacam jenis ukiran juga terdapat pada setiap sudut bangunan ini.Kata-kata Kunci: Arsitektur Melayu, Kampar, Riau, Rumah Lontiak, UkiranMALAY ARCHITECTURE: IDENTIFICATION MALAY LONTIAK HOUSE OF KAMPAR MAJO TRIBEMalay architecture has a lot of typologies in roof forms, such as Limas, Lontiak, Begonjong, Layar and Sayap, Peranakan (a mixture of ethnic Chinese), and several other typical Malay houses. One of the traditional houses in Kampar regency is the Lontiok (Lentik) Melayu Majo house which was built involving the wider community and traditional ceremonies. This paper identifies and documents this house as one of the Malay buildings that need to be preserved. The research method used is a qualitative research method with a case study approach. The theory of Malay architecture and ornaments as background knowledge is supported by information obtained from the literature, field data, and activity actors within the scope of research. Processing and analysis data is continued by evaluating, sketching, and re-drawing, then ending with the preparation of field findings. In general, this house is divided into 2 (two) building part, the first line is the main house, and the second building mass is the kitchen, there is a connection between the main house and the kitchen. Majo Melayu House is a stage building with the characteristic of Lontiak roof. The ornaments that were first seen in this house is Selembayung or Tanduk Buang; there were also ornaments such as unsheathed spears called Tombak-tombak and Sayap Layang-layang on the four corners of the roof. Various types of carvings are found in every segment of this building.Keywords: Malay Architecture, Kampar, Riau, Lontiak House, CarvingREFERENCESCreswell, John W. (1998).

The study presents the results of typological analysis and simulation modeling analysis of traditional courtyard residential houses in the cold semi-arid climate of Iran. The purpose of the research has been to analyze and evaluate traditional passive environmental strategies and their elements to provide implications for the design of sustainable residential buildings in contemporary time. Five existing traditional courtyard houses in the city of Tabriz, Iran, are used as case-studies to analyze the typology and the solar zoning conditions and to develop simulation models. The Ecotect simulation program is used to calculate the solar gains of the buildings and to analyze the effectiveness of the natural passive systems along with native design strategies in terms of potential solar gains of main and secondary living spaces. However, in the vernacular, not only the awareness of the climatic and topological considerations is important, but also the values, rituals, and beliefs that shape the design of the dwellings need to be considered. The research is based on the hypothesis that vernacular buildings (courtyard houses) of Iran have been environmentally sustainable structures. However, an important challenge of the study has been to avoid the technological bias and to consider the cultural and social aspects and embodiment of the studied houses, as well. The study also addresses the potential shortcomings that limit the reliability of Iranian vernacular architecture at present in order to arrive at a more holistic understanding of the sustainability of the vernacular architecture in the country.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> In the Souf region of Algeria, all vernacular buildings are covered by domes, built with an unusual building material, the desert rose stone, peculiar to the region. These domes represent an element of identity of the region and describe a unique urban landscape that deserves to be protected and enhanced. Unfortunately, these architectural elements have suffered damage that devalues the urban landscape compromising their conservation. In particular, many domes have severe cracks and have collapsed in large areas.</p><p>Diagnostic investigations were carried out with the aim to understand the causes of the damages and to carry out guidelines for consolidation.</p><p>In particular, in situ surveys have allowed to analyze the employed construction technique, the collection of samples for the chemical-physical and mechanical investigations of the materials and a manual geometric survey of a typical building module. In addition, a Finite Element Model of a building module was realized with the aim of investigating structural behavior.</p><p>Considerations were made on the influence of the dome shape on structural behaviour and on the fractures pattern detected in many domes.</p>

PurposeIn vernacular buildings, many climatic and passive solutions have been used to create indoor thermal comfort. Seasonal occupant movement is an example of a traditional response to increasing thermal comfort. This article investigates the influence of these user behaviours on thermal comfort in courtyard houses.Design/methodology/approachParametric models of three different scenarios of courtyard houses are simulated. The courtyard houses are located in Shiraz, Iran, and share the same orientation and construction materials. To enhance the accuracy of the study, the indoor adaptive thermal comfort (ATC) analysis is performed with three different window-to-wall ratios (WWR) of 25, 50 and 75%. The ACT analysis is performed on an hourly basis for summer and winter scenarios.FindingsThe results demonstrate that the indoor ATC is 8.3% higher in winter than in the summer in the seasonal zones. During the summer, the amount of ATC is relatively sustained in all zones. Unlike common beliefs, seasonal movement can enhance the ATC, especially during winter, specifically in the northern part of the courtyard. In northern zones, the seasonal movement of occupants improves the indoor ATC from 10.1 to 23.7%, and in southern zones, the improvement is from 2.2 to 4.8%.Originality/valueThis research presents a new numerical investigation into occupants' seasonal movements in courtyard houses during summer and winter. It provides a precise pattern to show how much this seasonal movement can affect the habitant's ATC.
