Summary
This study presents a new dataset of Balinese traditional architecture, featuring residential and sacred buildings with detailed 2D drawings and metadata. This resource aids in the exploration and preservation of unique Balinese architectural heritage.
Area of Science:
- Architectural Studies
- Cultural Heritage Preservation
- Digital Archiving
Background:
- Balinese traditional architecture is a rich cultural heritage requiring systematic documentation.
- Existing documentation methods may not fully capture the nuances of traditional designs.
- A comprehensive dataset is needed for research and preservation efforts.
Purpose of the Study:
- To introduce a novel dataset of Balinese traditional architecture.
- To provide detailed 2D drawings and metadata for both residential and sacred buildings.
- To facilitate research, cultural preservation, and education in Balinese architecture.
Main Methods:
- Compilation of data from traditional Balinese architectural texts.
- Creation of 2D drawings (front, side, section views, floor plans) using AutoCAD.
- Export of designs to JPG format using Figma with accompanying metadata (size, structural details).
Main Results:
- A dataset comprising 14 types of residential buildings (68 images) and 29 types of sacred buildings (76 images).
- Designs accurately reflect traditional Balinese architectural norms.
- Enhanced usability through comprehensive metadata.
Conclusions:
- The dataset serves as a valuable resource for understanding and preserving Balinese architectural heritage.
- It supports interdisciplinary research and educational initiatives.
- Promotes digital preservation of cultural assets.

As the construction industry moves towards more eco-friendly practices, concrete's adaptability and its ability to incorporate sustainable features make it a key material in the drive towards greener building solutions.
There are multiple approaches to achieve sustainability in a commercial concrete building. For instance, construct a concrete parking area under the building, utilizing pervious concrete paver blocks in open areas to facilitate rainwater collection through an underground...

01:27Movement Joints in Buildings
175
Movement joints in buildings are essential design elements that accommodate inevitable motions caused by various factors such as temperature changes, moisture content variations, and structural deflections. These motions, if not considered in design and construction, can lead to unsightly or dangerous damage. Movement joints are incorporated in different forms to manage these stresses and allow materials to move without causing distress.

01:14Polymer Classification: Architecture
3.0K
Polymers are classified as linear or branched on the basis of their chain architecture. The polymer chains in linear polymers have a long chain-like structure with minimal to no branching at all. Even if a polymer features large substituent groups on the monomer, which appear as branches to the skeleton, it is not considered a branched polymer. A branched polymer contains secondary polymer chains that arise from the main polymer chain. The branching occurs when the polymer growth shifts from...

01:30Types of Building Stone
171
Building stones, essential materials for construction, are extracted from natural rock deposits and processed into specific forms and dimensions suitable for various building applications. These stones are broadly classified into three types based on their geological formation: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic.
Igneous rocks are formed from the solidification of magma or lava. An example is granite, known for its durability and resistance to weathering, making it ideal for parts of...

01:13Design Example: Dimensioning of Concrete Masonry Construction
145
For the construction of a storeroom using concrete masonry units, it's essential to align the dimensions of the structure with the actual sizes of the blocks and the intended mortar joints. On the site in question, there's a stockpile of concrete masonry blocks with a nominal size of eight by eight by sixteen inches, which are to be used in the construction of the storeroom.

01:20Masonry Curtain Walls
1.2K
Masonry curtain walls employ brick or stone veneers supported by the building's structure to form an external cladding system that is both aesthetically appealing and functional. These walls are erected through two principal techniques, first by traditional layering of masonry units and second by using prefabricated panels. Traditional construction relies on steel shelf angles attached to the spandrel beam for support, with high-bond mortars ensuring secure attachment of masonry veneer...
