The cultural heritage of river life in Banjarmasin in the form of lanting houses is an important asset that can support the potential for the development of the city. One of the efforts to maintain and develop the existence of the lanting house can be done by tracing the lexicon and aspects of its vernacularism. From the historical and cultural studies of the origin of the lanting house, it was found that the culture of migrating (Lahei-Muara Teweh-Central Kalimantan) and trading culture (Hulu Sungai - South Kalimantan). To lead to a new development with new functions, the lexical "Rumah Lanting” and “Balanting” must be maintained. The word "lanting" and the process of "balanting" must be included such as gallery lanting, lanting guest house, or lanting homestay. Lexical "balanting" emphasis on lanting architecture which can only be docked and not settled. With the lexical "balanting" process, the architecture of the lanting house is floating and moves along the river. From analysis of 14 lanting houses located in the urban city, such as Kampung Seberang Masjid and on Bromo Island Kampung Mantuil, Banjarmasin City, it is found that the character of the lanting house which has spontaneous adaptive ability, multipurpose space expression, and flexibility of movement. The lanting house is able to move flexibly as well as the lexicon that is attached to it in the public perception towards artifact/notation of lanting. The influencing factor was the ethnolinguistic culture which influenced the journey of the Proto Banjar community-Dipa Daha people to the Banjar people during the Banjar Kingdom era. The result of the vernacularism synthesis confirms that the lanting house fulfills the rules as part of the vernacular architecture.
Banjarmasin的河流生活文化遗产以种植房屋的形式存在,这是一项重要的资产,可以支持城市发展的潜力。保持和发展种植屋存在的努力之一可以通过追踪词汇和其方言方面来完成。从对兰亭屋起源的历史文化研究中发现,兰亭屋有迁移文化(拉黑-穆阿拉特威-中加里曼丹)和贸易文化(Hulu Sungai -南加里曼丹)。要实现新功能的新发展,就必须保持“Rumah Lanting”和“balance”的词性。“种植”这个词和“平衡”的过程必须包括在内,如画廊种植,种植宾馆,或种植民宿。词汇的“平衡”强调的是建筑的种植,而建筑只能停靠而不能定居。随着词汇的“平衡”过程,种植屋的建筑是漂浮的,沿着河流移动。通过对位于城市中的14座种植屋的分析,如Kampung Seberang Masjid和Banjarmasin市Kampung Mantuil的Bromo岛,发现种植屋具有自发的适应能力、多用途的空间表达和运动灵活性的特点。植物屋能够灵活移动,以及在公众对植物的人工制品/符号的感知中附加的词汇。影响因素是民族语言文化,它影响了班贾尔王国时期原班贾尔社区迪帕达哈人向班贾尔人的迁移。乡土综合的结果证实了种植屋作为乡土建筑的一部分符合规则。

The focus on the Intelligent System (IS) in our existing types of building is a question of suitability, rather than creativity to enhance the building performance. This research explores the possible application of IS in improving the performance of courtyard houses in Baghdad, Iraq by answering the research two questions which are Q1: What does the traditional courtyard house (TCH) contain that should enhanced its performance? Q2: How (IS) could be added to the TCH in Iraq? The investigation which was done through literature review of courtyard houses type as seen beside intelligent building is supported by case studies investigation 12 (TCH) in Al-Kadhimiya through physical survey, observation, and documentation, in addition to 24 semi structure interviews with occupants of the same houses, and then using the qualitative method to analyse the data collection. The key findings highlight the need for adding new systems and architectural values to such TCH which is the basis of adding intelligence systems in such houses to enhance their performance. This could be improving the partial control of the environment related to structure and materials; decreasing the environmental challenges related to the ease of making modifications, the role of government regulations, and modernization requirements. Minimizing social struggles related to the idea of place psychology. Therefore, the current study concludes that the TCH could be as a contender of IS to enhance its performance through retrofit of such houses that contain high architectural value and re-build these houses with low architectural value and slum structure.

This study aims at the physico-chemical characterization of Alchornea cordifolia oil isolated from the seed of this plant, to identify the bioavailability of epoxidized triglycerides. The ripe fruits of Alchornea cordifolia were harvested in southern Congo-Brazzaville in the localities of Goma-tsétsé and Dolisie. The oil is extracted from the seeds by three different methods: cold method (Folch), Soxhlet method, and water method. The fat contents are of the order of 18 to 28% by the water method, 30 to 37% by the Folch method and 45 to 56% by the Soxhlet method. All these methods exhibit similar fatty acid profiles. They are characterized by the presence of palmitic acids (C16: 0) 8 to 15%, stearic (C18: 0) 1 to 2%, oleic (C18: 1) 8 to 12%, linoleic (C18: 2) 8 to 12%, epoxidized fatty acid 48 to 63%, selacholeic (C24: 1) 2 to 3%. The epoxidized fatty acid contents are of the order of 50 to 63% by the water method, 50 to 61% by the Folch method and 48 to 58% by the Soxhlet method. The oil extracted with water has slightly higher epoxidized fatty acid contents than that extracted by other methods. The fatty acid composition of Alchornea cordifolia seed oil from Congo is characterized by high levels of epoxidized fatty acids in the order of 48-63%. This multi-functional acid has considerable commercial potential.

The aim of this study is to discuss the reasons behind introducing Building Information Modeling into the Architecture domain, an in-depth investigation of its application effects on the design process in architecture pedagogy in Jordanian Architecture schools is carried out. Technology is the new spine of modern societies; architecture discipline is an interconnected sector in which computer programs have boosted, through multi-functioning capabilities. BIM (Building Information Modeling) is the new movement toward linking the Architectural Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry. Its effects on changing the conventional design process, presentation, and communication have altered the architecture profession in addition to education. Many Architecture schools adopted BIM in their curriculum, and many did not, therefore, the evaluation standards for student’s work creativity have changed drastically. The research methodology consists of analyzing the fifth-year architecture student's work (at the Architecture Department/University of Jordan) in reference to their followed design process. The outcomes varied according to the followed design process (manual/Cad/BIM) revealing a pattern in the results. The students’ work was evaluated by several accredited architects in addition to architecture educators from the university itself. The findings were also a huge indicator of the students’ preference for using BIM in their designs. However, the students who adopted the manual method managed to achieve better.

To determine the radon potential level and estimate the related exposure of the public, combined gamma dose rate and radon measurements were performed in 15 dwellings in Yopougon, the largest and inhabited commune of Côte d’Ivoire. Indoor gamma dose rates were measured using a gamma survey meter. Radon concentration measurements were performed using LR-115 films detectors (SSNTDs) for three months. The mean indoor gamma dose rate in air was 20 nSv/h whereas the mean radon concentration indoor was found to be 93.04 Bq/m 3 . The relationship between indoor radon measurements and gamma dose rates was also investigated. A very weak correlation between the two variables was observed.
