THE CYCLICAL FORM FROM A COMPOSITIONAL TECHNIQUE TO A THEMATICISM-GENERATING PRINCIPLE
Authors: Sirbu Sirbu
Published: January 2025

Although the roots of the cyclical form can be traced back centuries ago, it was the 19th century that claimed the cyclical principle as its full manifestation. Closely linked to the concept of genre and its affirmation in certain patterns, the cyclical form was adopted by composers as a working tool to ensure the unity of a multipartite sonic organism by utilizing a common thematic material that can be found in several parts of the genre. This thematically charged entity can circulate at the macro-formal level in variants without major changes or it can be transformed at the melodic, rhythmic, harmonic or timbral level. Generally speaking, it raises the level of musical thinking and writing, demonstrating the composer�s skill and the complexity of his/her conception. It can also have an effect on the listener by increasing the emotional impact it can provide by reiterating symbolic themes. Beginning with Beethoven and continuing with Liszt, Franck, Berlioz and Tchaikovsky, this compositional technique is concretely applied as a conscious and premeditated act in musical compositions. The twentieth century and composers such as George Enescu extend the acceptance of cyclicity to the level of a principle generative of thematicism by developing an initial theme and metamorphosing it into a resource of rhythmic-melodic material for defining and shaping the other sound characters that fulfill a formal pattern. Thus, the edifice of a thematic entity enunciated in the first part of a work can become an inexhaustible resource and the embryo of several musical individualities, generating the thematicism of the other parts of the whole.

Authors: Sugar Viktoria , Faczanyi Zsuzsanna , Gall Anthony
Published: January 2025

The stock of the historical tenement houses is the major architectural heritage of Budapest, built largely during the long 19th century, a testimony to a prosperous period in the Hungarian history. These buildings are all unique, yet their massing over an area of 13 km2 forms a unified street and townscape.
The purpose of the study is to analyze and create an architectural typology for this important heritage of the Hungarian capital. As main research methods, architectural measurements and GIS-based data gathering were used, the data processed by mathematical analysis. More than 2000 buildings were examined in various details to create basic typological schemes. The schemes defined in the research support the understanding and protection of heritage values.
The examined data contains the mass and spatial design, including the site layout, the location of courtyards, the materials and structures, the principles of facade design and styles used. The latter, although closely linked to the building and underlying structures, deserves special attention, as these ornaments define the face of the building and therefore of the Budapest streetscape.
As a main result, a summarizing visual matrix is introduced, with new stylistic terminology and periodization applicable to tenement buildings of Budapest. Concerning geometry, it was concluded that the frame-type, Neo-renaissance style tenements are most frequent of the stock, which projects the complex requirements for future large-scale rehabilitation.
VIRTUAL PARAMETRIC 3D MODEL OF A PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE ON A 3D VORONOI DIAGRAM
Authors: Uremovic Boris , Bachler Mandi Orlic , Sojat Domagoj
Published: January 2025

The shape of all constructions has its origin in a geometric shape, such as a cuboid, a pyramid or a cylinder. Every builder (architect or civil engineer) has determined the choice of geometric shape for the requirements of a building primarily by its purpose, but in addition to this utilitarian condition, he also wanted to achieve a certain aesthetic impression. This desire to achieve the desired aesthetic impression led to the use of increasingly complex shapes and their combinations, and this became even easier and simpler with the use of 3D modelling technologies on the computer. The aim of this work is to present a virtual 3D model of a pedestrian bridge inspired by a 3D Voronoi diagram based on a pseudo-random distribution of points in space, created in the form of a parametric model using the computer programme Rhinoceros 3D and its additional tool for visual programming and creation of parametric models Grasshopper. The model obtained in this way facilitates the creation of solution variants of the building, all with the aim of finding the optimal form that meets all the technical conditions for the stability of the structure, fulfils the function for which the building was designed, and finally gives the desired aesthetic impression and fits the building into the space. The Voronoi diagram was chosen as the basis for the creation of the structure due to its organic structure. It gives the building a high-quality aesthetic expression with a good possibility of meeting the technical conditions that the building must fulfil.
THE BEAUTY OF GARBAGE_ART OF PHOTOGRAPHY MEETS ENVIRONMENTALISM
Authors: Svansson Einar
Published: January 2025

Artists and university professors face an increasingly complex environment. There is access to abundance of information and the AI revolution helps everyone to deliver more detailed and structured knowledge. This is an opportunity to try new methods and novel combinations in the artistic and learning processes and use more diverse ideas and methods. We want to highlight the development in recent years in our personal life in Iceland in the use of photography in this context.
It all started in the Covid-19 pandemic crisis with lockout and exile at home. The parents of the university professor found old black & white film negatives from his youth. This ignited a lost hobby in the author who found his old passion again. He had never processed most of these photos so this was now promptly scanned into digital form. This opened a new world of memories and extreme nostalgia. These photos were around 50 years old, so the first idea was to duplicate some of the scenes and compositions in the same locations and even with the original people as possible. This idea is in progress and an exhibition is planned in the next 2-3 years when this project has produced enough material with good enough duplicates.
Another idea is a work in progress. The common trend in photography is to either focus on the technical perfection or the artistic aesthetics of the composition. These two can of course be combined in great work of art. The title of this abstract is to play with these opposite themes of art and perfection. The garbage is a role model for imperfection and the circular economy is very methodical and scientific in the recycling processes. The author has been going around in circles around the island of Iceland to get beautiful photographs of garbage in all diverse forms and colours. The plan is to open an exhibition soon with this theme and collection of garbage photos.
In the future it is on the plan case to utilize old and new photographs in the teaching with pre-recorded audio and/or YouTube -like lectures with both audio and visual appearance. The focus is to connect personal art to lectures in practice. The author likes this teaching method and adds passion and enthusiasm to the lecture recording sessions. Personal photographs are rare in higher education in lecture work but can add a powerful dimension the lectures and will probably increase interest from the students. But personally made photographs used in university lectures are interesting to explore. This is part of the author?s journey to identify himself as a photographer, an artist.
ECDOTIC APPROACH TO INTERDISCIPLINARY ANNOTATED EDITIONS IN THE CONTEMPORARY ITALIAN PANORAMA
Authors: Bandalo Visnja
Published: January 2025

The presentation aims to focus from an ecdotic perspective, and from unexplored hermeneutic angles, on potentially prominent features of the annotated editions in which are brought together those genologically varied literary-type writings that are correlated with the analogous artistic fields, such as the visual arts, architecture or music, starting from relevant concrete examples in the Italian cultural landscape. Furthermore, attention will be drawn to how to make an edition of a philological character, scientifically grounded, in which a literary transposition of the philosophical content takes place, invested in it as well in an interdisciplinary sense. In addition to texts outlining art and philosophy, the current paper explores those belonging to the sphere of the sciences, if they possess similar literary attributes because they present certain thematic connections or consistent stylistic constants. Simultaneously, the intent is to analyze the ways in which a component of literariness is infused into these texts, which is observed both in terms of content and form, that is, emerging from the predilected theme, or from their internal characteristics. Thus in the paper are approached utterly important theoretical and literary-critical questions from an interdisciplinary perspective, making it possible to arrive at innovative knowledge from the unfolding potential, developing such texts.
Using a RAG-enhanced large language model in a virtual teaching assistant role: Experiences from a pilot project in statistics education
Authors: Németh Renáta , Tátrai Annamária , Szabó Miklós , Tamási Árpád
Published: January 2025

The role of artificial intelligence (AI) in education is expected to grow, but how it transforms teaching
and learning remains unclear. This study explores the use of an AI tutor that is similar to ChatGPT
enhanced with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), in a pilot project at the Faculty of Social
Sciences of Eötvös Loránd University in Budapest, Hungary. The tutor provided a searchable
knowledge base for students preparing for admission to the MSc in Survey Statistics and Data
Analytics. Instructor feedback highlighted the tutor’s ability to deliver accurate, textbook-based
responses, but noted limitations in addressing real-world complexities. Student feedback, which was
gathered through focus groups and surveys, showed high satisfaction and many used the tool for
active learning such as comparing concepts and organising material. Students had the flexibility to
adapt the tutor to their own learning strategy, and they also noted the importance of the tutor as a
time-saving supplement rather than a replacement for comprehensive study. Approximately 15% of
student queries demonstrated critical thinking, where students used the AI tutor to confirm their own
interpretations. Similarly, around 15% showed active learning, seeking explanations and
comparisons or generated study guides, while nearly 30% engaged directly with course material,
referencing specific concepts and theories from their readings. Instructor evaluation revealed that
76% of the AI tutor’s responses were fully correct, 17% mostly correct and only 6% were misleading.
The findings suggest that RAG models hold promise for enhancing learning by offering reliable,
interactive and efficient support for students and educators.

Authors: Wang Jie , Mohd. Shah Mohd. Kamal , Choong Wai Heng , Al-Azad Nahiyan
Published: January 2025

The analysis and identification of defect signals in magnetic flux leakage (MFL) inspection are crucial aspects of MFL detection technology. To investigate the impact of defect size and depth on magnetic flux density in steel pipes, this paper creates 100 finite element models of MFL detection for defects with lengths and depths ranging from 1 to 10 mm. Simulation results show that the radial component of the magnetic flux leakage field exhibits two peaks near the defect edges, while the axial component has a peak at the defect center. As the defect size increases, the peak-to-peak distance of the radial component increases, while its peak value decreases; the peak value of the axial component increases with defect length within a certain range. These findings enhance the understanding of MFL detection and its relationship with defect size and depth, providing insights that can inform the development of more accurate and efficient detection techniques.

Authors: Nurfadilla Nurfadilla , Junaidi Junaidi , Rahmawati Rahmawati
Published: January 2025

The high demand for mining products and the need to increase economic value have led the government to build mineral processing plants (smelters) so that local residents can have opportunities to work and increase government revenue from the tax sector. However, few studies discuss the impact of smelter construction in Indonesia, especially from the perspectives of the government, society, employees, and academics. This aligns with the 2019-2024 Indonesia’s government national research priorities (PRN), Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and the Ministry of Education and Culture's vision, which includes the flagship concept of independent learning (MBKM) and the Green Economy program. The urgency of this research stems from the conflicting interests of stakeholders, which can result in suboptimal implementation of the green economy. This can lead to issues such as economic disparities between employees and local communities, environmental damage, and uneven welfare levels. The aim of this study is to examine the effectiveness of the green economy model in the smelter areas from a quadruple helix perspective. The study employs a qualitative research method. The stages of this research are as follows: (i) observation and identification of potential respondents; (ii) preparing participant criteria and research indicators; (iii) data collection; (iv) identification and collection of qualitative data using an ethnographic approach; (v) compiling research results; (vi) compiling research outputs; (vii) reporting and monitoring and evaluation. The results show that the presence of PT Bumi Mineral Sulawesi has had a positive impact on creating jobs and reducing unemployment, as well as improving the local economy and the welfare of the community. However, to achieve inclusive sustainable development, we must address the challenges of equitable welfare distribution and environmental impacts.

Authors: Mitsui Yutaka , Goka Shigeyoshi , Murakami Kazuya , Kakio Shoji , Wada Keiji
Published: January 2025

To enhance isolation in gate-drive circuits for multilevel inverters, we proposed transversal piezoelectric boundary acoustic wave (PBAW) filters to replace previously used surface acoustic wave filters. First, we investigated transversal PBAW in a simple and easy-to-fabricate SiO2/Au/LiNbO3 structure. Calculations demonstrated that reducing the number of electrode pairs enhances propagation characteristics; however, this structure does not effectively mitigate signal degradation. Therefore, we investigated the SiO2/Ta2O5/Au/LiNbO3 structure, enabling better PBAW propagation. By optimizing with impedance matching, we achieved an insertion loss of less than 3 dB. To validate the feasibility of a transversal PBAW filter, we also experimentally investigated the SiO2/Au/LiNbO3 structured PBAW filter. Using substrate cut angles and processes available within our research group, we fabricated and evaluated the prototype, confirming PBAW propagation. These results suggest that transversal PBAW filters exhibiting excellent propagation characteristics using SiO2/Ta2O5/Au/LiNbO3 can be achieved with a precise Ta2O5 fabrication process. The study offers a viable solution for enhancing isolation performance in gate-drive circuits.

Published: January 2025

Background: Sleep is vital, but issues are mounting. Sleep deprivation is dangerous for hospital nurses. This reduces nurse productivity and increases patient-harming medical mistakes. Shift work affects sleep and circadian rhythms; therefore, night shift female nurses' sleep is important. Nurses and patients lose sleep amid disturbances. Objectives: The study examined night-shift female nurses' sleep quality. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Dhaka Medical College's Physiology Department from January to December 2019 among 160 female nurses aged 24-50 who work night shifts from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. in In-patient department of Medicine, Surgery, Obstetrics, and Gynecology. Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index and nurse demographics were obtained. After informed consent was signed, the individual was thoroughly questioned and recorded in the predesigned data form. Statistics were done with Excel and SPSS-26. Results: Mean BMI was 23.91 ± 1.64 kg/m², and systolic and diastolic blood pressures were 105.63 ± 11.10 and 69.94 ± 6.68 mmHg, respectively, without statistical significance (p > 0.05). The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) components showed significant results (p < 0.001), with mean scores for subjective sleep quality (1.09 ± 0.35), latency (1.95 ± 0.84), duration (1.77 ± 0.72), and additional parameters resulting in a mean global PSQI score of 7.94 ± 1.76. Highest number of respondents were belonging to age group 31–40 and 68.75% were married and in medical wards (42.50%). The lowest sleep quality was seen in Obstetrics & Gynecological wards, with 54 nurses scoring over 5 on the global PSQI (p < 0.001). About 69% of nurses had a PSQI score > 5, suggesting poor sleep quality, associated with age, marital status, and ward type (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Female nurses need sleep hygiene instruction, shift schedule adjustments, and stress management to sleep better. These obstacles affect nurses' well-being and care quality.

Authors: Kendra Aro Rinjani  , E.R. Rumbiak Julio , Rusmana Rusmana , Saylendra Andree
Published: January 2025

Aphids (Aphis gossypii) are the primary pests that attack agricultural land in Indonesia. In addition to being pests, aphids can act as plant disease vectors. Controlling this pest is essential to increase crop productivity and maintain economic value. Farmers typically use synthetic insecticides for pest control. However, the continuous use of synthetic insecticides can lead to aphids developing resistance. This study aims to assess the resistance levels of aphids in Serang City to various synthetic insecticides. The study utilized five synthetic insecticide active ingredients: carbamates, organophosphates, pyrethroids, neonicotinoids, and flupyradifurone, at concentrations of 5%, 50%, 95%, and 100%. The study measured LT50, LT99, and LC50 values for each synthetic insecticide and observed morphological changes in aphids. The results indicated that aphids in agricultural areas of Serang sub-district, Serang City, showed resistance to organophosphate insecticides. Additionally, aphids in Cipocok sub-district, Serang City, were suspected of developing resistance to pyrethroid insecticides. Higher concentrations of insecticides resulted in faster pest mortality. Based on the LC50 values, carbamate and neonicotinoid insecticides are recommended for controlling aphid pests (Aphis gossypii). The study also observed changes in behavior and morphology of aphid pests following insecticide application.

Authors: Tarigan Elvina Yulianda , Widihastuty  , Ahmad Sayu Adli Fikri
Published: January 2025

Malaysia's animal feed production exceeds demand, accounting for about 45-65% of the composition of most feed products. In Malaysia, grain corn imports increased from approximately 2.5 million tonnes in 2000 to 4.0 million tonnes in 2019 for use as animal feed. This experiment was conducted at MARDI Seberang Perai, Penang, from June 2018 to the end of February 2020, using a Worldstar 7.0 PLUS (WS7.0PLUS) mini combine harvester. The basic operation of this mini combine harvester is similar to the Kubota mini combine harvester, which is widely used for paddy and grain corn harvesting. During the harvesting process, three methods were employed to test the speed of the mini combine harvester. Although this harvester is capable of harvesting four rows at once, considerations about potential plant losses necessitated harvesting only three rows for the purposes of this study. The harvester’s speed directly affected the loss rate and work efficiency, depending on the soil surface conditions in the test plot. Harvesting losses were categorized into two types: losses on the cutting table and losses during seed separation. Losses on the cutting table occurred in front of the harvester during the cutting process and were measured by collecting plants left in each row after the harvester passed. Losses during separation occurred when plant seeds fell behind the machine during the separation process, and these were measured by collecting samples using a 2 m x 2 m PVC quadrant placed behind the machine. The total losses due to the cutting table and separation system during harvesting using the mini combine harvester ranged from 2.45% to 6.43%. Each harvester speed produced varying results, significantly affecting the overall loss rate and efficiency of the operation.

Teorias da aprendizagem e a educação física (motora): formas de como ensinar
Authors: Brandl Neto Inácio
Published: January 2025

O estudo objetiva explorar as teorias da aprendizagem aplicadas à Educação Física, com enfoque em como diferentes paradigmas pedagógicos influenciam a forma de ensinar e a construção do conhecimento no ambiente escolar. A pesquisa analisa três modelos pedagógicos baseados nos paradigmas epistemológicos descritos por Becker (1994): a pedagogia diretiva, não-diretiva e relacional. A pedagogia diretiva, fundamentada no empirismo, considera o aluno uma "tábula rasa" e prioriza a transmissão de conhecimento pelo professor. Já a pedagogia não-diretiva, sustentada pelo inatismo, minimiza a interferência do professor e enfatiza o aprendizado espontâneo, frequentemente resultando em desigualdades de aprendizagem. Por fim, a pedagogia relacional, associada ao construtivismo/interacionismo, propõe que o conhecimento seja construído por meio da interação entre professor, aluno e o meio, respeitando os saberes prévios dos discentes. Nesta abordagem, estratégias como a "descoberta dirigida" e a "resolução de problemas" são recomendadas, pois promovem a aprendizagem ativa e a co-construção do conhecimento. A pedagogia relacional é destacada como o modelo mais adequado para a Educação Física, pois incentiva a participação ativa dos alunos, respeitando sua individualidade e promovendo o desenvolvimento crítico e criativo. Esse modelo transforma a relação ensino-aprendizagem em um processo colaborativo e contínuo, preparando os alunos para serem agentes de transformação social. A adoção desse paradigma requer mudanças significativas nas práticas pedagógicas, com ênfase na mediação e no estímulo à autonomia e reflexão.

Este estudo objetivou analisar como ocorre a prática de exercícios físicos voltados à promoção da saúde em Marechal Cândido Rondon, Paraná, verificando os motivos da adesão, os métodos empregados e as possíveis inadequações, a fim de orientar práticas mais conscientes e eficazes. A pesquisa, de caráter descritivo, utilizou questionários aplicados a 60 praticantes, abordando aspectos como frequência, intensidade, duração das sessões, orientação profissional e exames médicos prévios. Os resultados apontaram que 45% dos entrevistados praticam exercícios para "sentir-se bem", enquanto outros buscam emagrecimento (31%) ou prevenção de doenças (19%). Apesar disso, 57% não possuem orientação profissional, expondo-se a riscos que podem comprometer os benefícios esperados. A caminhada foi o tipo de exercício preferido por 57% dos participantes, com 63% praticando entre três e seis sessões semanais. Entretanto, 67% realizam sessões dentro da duração recomendada, enquanto uma minoria excede os limites, podendo gerar prejuízos à saúde. O estudo revelou que muitos praticantes não estão plenamente conscientes sobre a execução correta dos exercícios físicos, subestimando a importância da orientação profissional e dos exames médicos. Tais lacunas podem comprometer os benefícios à saúde e aumentar o risco de lesões. Conclui-se que ações educativas e maior engajamento de profissionais de Educação Física são fundamentais para garantir práticas seguras e efetivas, transformando o exercício físico em um verdadeiro instrumento de promoção da saúde.

Authors: Peres Luís Sérgio
Published: January 2025

O estudo analisa os distúrbios comportamentais apresentados por escolares, investigando suas causas e fatores intervenientes, com foco nos contextos familiar, escolar e social. Busca-se compreender como a afetividade e outros aspectos influenciam o desenvolvimento e o comportamento dos estudantes. A pesquisa destaca que as mudanças socioeconômicas, a desestruturação familiar e as condições desfavoráveis nas escolas contribuem significativamente para o surgimento de distúrbios comportamentais. Autores como Piaget e Maslow enfatizam a importância da afetividade no desenvolvimento integral do indivíduo. A afetividade está relacionada ao respeito, amor e aceitação, sendo essencial para a formação de vínculos saudáveis e o desenvolvimento cognitivo e emocional. Contudo, nas escolas, esse aspecto é frequentemente negligenciado, resultando em dificuldades de relacionamento e problemas de comportamento, como agressividade e falta de motivação. A análise também aborda intervenções positivas e negativas, destacando a importância de práticas pedagógicas que valorizem o afeto, o incentivo e o respeito. Conclui-se que a afetividade desempenha um papel central no desenvolvimento integral dos alunos. Recomenda-se que as escolas promovam ambientes acolhedores e inclusivos, trabalhando em conjunto com as famílias para criar estratégias que favoreçam o desenvolvimento emocional e social dos estudantes. Essas ações são fundamentais para minimizar os impactos dos distúrbios comportamentais e melhorar o processo de ensino-aprendizagem.

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis proses berpikir kreatif siswa dalam menyelesaikan masalah matematika pada materi bilangan bulat dan pecahan di kelas VII SMPN 1 Labuhan Badas. Metode yang digunakan adalah deskriptif kualitatif dengan melibatkan enam siswa sebagai subjek penelitian, terdiri atas dua siswa dengan kemampuan matematis tinggi, dua siswa sedang, dan dua siswa rendah. Data dikumpulkan melalui lembar soal berbasis masalah, wawancara, dan analisis jawaban siswa, yang kemudian dianalisis berdasarkan indikator berpikir kreatif, yaitu kefasihan, kelenturan, elaborasi, dan keaslian. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa siswa dengan kemampuan matematis tinggi telah memenuhi indikator kelenturan, elaborasi, dan keaslian, meskipun indikator kefasihan belum terpenuhi karena hanya menggunakan satu cara penyelesaian. Siswa dengan kemampuan sedang menunjukkan pencapaian yang bervariasi; satu siswa mampu memenuhi indikator kelenturan dan keaslian, sementara siswa lainnya hanya memenuhi indikator keaslian. Siswa dengan kemampuan rendah hanya memenuhi indikator keaslian, dengan kesulitan signifikan pada kefasihan, kelenturan, dan elaborasi akibat pemahaman konsep yang kurang dan kesalahan dalam pengoperasian angka. Secara keseluruhan, hanya siswa dengan kemampuan tinggi yang menunjukkan kemampuan berpikir kreatif yang memadai. Temuan ini menyoroti pentingnya pengembangan metode pembelajaran yang inovatif, seperti diskusi kelompok dan latihan soal berbasis masalah, untuk mendorong kemampuan berpikir kreatif siswa pada semua kategori kemampuan matematis.

Indonesia adalah negara yang berkomitmen terhadap pemerataan pembangunan di seluruh wilayah, termasuk daerah tertinggal. Pengaruh pembangunan berkelanjutan telah mendorong penggunaan semen dan penggunaannya semakin meningkat setiap tahunnya. Hal ini dapat merusak lingkungan, karena untuk setiap juta ton semen yang diproduksi, satu juta ton gas CO? dihasilkan dan dilepaskan ke atmosfer.mempertimbangkan bahwa 8-10% dari total emisi CO? di seluruh dunia berasal dari produksi semen. Studi ini memecahkan masalah ini dengan menggunakan beton rendah semen yang ramah lingkungan dan ekonomis dengan menggunakan kalsium karbonat dan bubuk kerang yang inovatif. Kalsium karbonat (CaCO?) merupakan bahan baku semen Portland dan tidak melalui proses pembakaran sehingga dapat digunakan sebagai alternatif beton ramah lingkungan. Cangkang kerang banyak mengandung kalsium (CaO) dan bersifat basa. Selain itu, ia juga mengandung silika dan aluminium oksida, sehingga berpotensi menjadi pengganti material semen. Pada tahap ini dilakukan tahap mixed design berdasarkan SNI 7656-2012. Pengujian yang dilakukan menunjukkan hasil optimal pada masing-masing inovasi yaitu pemberian 15% kalsium karbonat dan 20% kerang, sehingga menghasilkan kuat tekan rata-rata beton umur 28 hari sebesar 27 MPa, 34 MPa, 37 MPa, dan 38 MPa. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa LCC kalsium karbonat dan cangkang mempunyai kuat tekan paling tinggi, lebih tinggi 7,4 % dan mampu bersaing dengan beton normal
