The Study of Potential Application of Modular Construction in The Development of Indonesia’s New Capital City

Abstract

Abstrak Sand spit (lidah pasir) adalah salah satu contoh bentuk sedimen yang sering dijumpai di kawasan daerah pantai. Lidah pasir yang terbentuk biasanya dihasilkan dari pergerakan sedimen transpor yang terjadi di laut. Proses lidah pasir yang terbentuk dalam kurun waktu yang lama menyebabkan terbentuknya daratan baru di sekitar pantai. Oleh karenanya untuk mengurangi pendangkalan di daerah alur pelayaran yang digunakan nelayan, diperlukan analisa terhadap pergerakan lidah pasir yang terjadi. Dalam penelitian ini analisa yang digunakan yaitu analisa spatio-temporal, yaitu pengamatan perubahan data spasial secara temporal atau dari waktu ke waktu. Dalam penelitian ini menggunakan alat UAV (Unmannde Aerial Vehicle) DJI Phantom 4 Pro untuk membantuu observasi spatio-temporal dari lidah pasir yang terbentuk di sekitar laguna. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode survey fotogrametri. Analisis yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu dengan bantuan software Agisoft dalam permodelan, dan QGIS (Quantum Geographic Information System) untuk menghitung data spasial yang mengalami perubahan. Berdasarkan dari hasil analisis regresi, koefisien korelasi antara hubungan laju angkutan sedimen sejajar pantai dengan volume adalah 0.85 dan korelasi dengan luasan adalah 0.89. Hal ini menunjukkan penggunaan drone untu observasi spatio-temporal memiliki tingkat validitas yang baik dibandingkan dengan penggunaan rumus empiris transpor sedimen. Akurasi hasil pengukuran fotogrametri dibandingkan dengan hasil pengukuran RTK GPS (Real Time Kinematic Global Positioning System) adalah 98% sama. Simpulan dari penelitian ini adalah penggunanan UAV mempunya nilai validitas yang baik untuk observasi jangka panjang pembbentukan lidah pasir disekitar laguna. Kata-kata Kunci: Lidah pasir, sedimentasi, pantai, fotogrametri, spatio-temporal, alur pelayaran, gelombang. Abstract Sand spit is one example of sedimentary forms that are often found in coastal areas. The sand spit formed usually are results from the movement of longshore sediment transport around littoral zone. The process of sand spit requires a long period of time of coastal processes. At some cases, the sand spits block navigation channels, inlets, and river mouths. Therefore, to understand the siltation process in the navigation channel used by fishermen, it is necessary to analyze the movement of the sand spit in the modes of spatio-temporal observations. This study is aimed at utilizing aerial unmanned vehicle DJI Phantom 4 Pro to assist spatio-temporal observations of sand spits formation around inlet of a coastal lagoon. This research applied a photogrammetric survey method to analyze a series of aerial images taken around an inlet of coastal lagoon. The analysis used in this research was performed with the help of Agisoft software in the modeling and QGIS (Quantum Geographic Information System) to calculate the spatial data. Based on the results of the regression analysis, the correlation coefficient between the longshore sediment transport rate and the volume is 0.85 and the correlation coefficient between the longshore sediment transport rate and the area is 0.89. These show that the use of the drone for spatio-temporal observations has a reasonable rate of validity compared to empirical sediment budget formulas. The accuracy of the photogrammetric measurement results compared to the RTK GPS (Real Time Kinematic Global Positioning System) measurement results is 98%. This study concludes that the use of UAV has an acceptable validity value for long-term observations of sand spit formation around a coastal lagoon.

1. Introduction

1.1 New capital city of Indonesia

1.1.1 Background

The historical record shows that in the Dutch Colonial era, the government mentioned the idea of Indonesia's capital city translocation (Purwanto, 2021). The idea

emerged since then but never turned into concrete action until the second reign of President Joko Widodo. There are a few considerations for switching the location of Indonesia's capital city to Penajam Paser, Borneo Island, such as the lower potential of disaster risk compared to other regions, geographically positioned in the centre of Indonesia's territory and near the well-developed urban areas (Balikpapan and Samarinda). The land is primarily government-owned

(Purwanto, 2021). Industrial plantation forests dominate most of the designated areas (Widjayatnika, 2018). The geological structure condition of the Sotek district is anti-clinal and synclinal, dominated by limestone (BAPPEDA Penajam Paser Utara, 2014). As limestone is well-known as a durable material for construction, the Head of Development Penajam Paser Utara City Council confirmed that the soil condition could suit the infrastructure development (AM. 2019). The new capital city of Indonesia in East Kalimantan is called Nusantara. This paper will express the New Capital City in Indonesia as Nusantara City. The relocation of Indonesia's capital city is a national large -scale strategic project requiring massive resources and many construction projects. The government planned to construct the development into three main zones: blue, yellow, and grey (AM. 2019), where blue is for the Central Governmental Region and yellow is for the Main Capital City Region. Grey will be an extension of the Capital City Region. The planned total area is about 256.142,74 hectares, with 56.180,87 hectares dedicated to the city centre (Purwanto, 2021). The city centre will include the government's essential facilities such as National Palace, government offices, main worship places, complex diplomatic area, Indonesian police and an army base, educational facility, medical facility, and residency area for public servant officers (Nainggolan, 2020). About 221.000 government officers were assigned and moved to the Nusantara, the National Development Planning Agency estimates that around 2.918 landed houses and 1.484 flats will accommodate them (Nainggolan, 2020). The construction of these massive residences starts in 2021-2024 .

1.1.2 The concept of future city.

In 2019, National Development Planning Agency stated that the development of Nusantara would bring in the concept of Smart and the Most Sustainable City (Ministry of National Development Planning, 2019) (updated based on the interview with the Ministry of Public Works). Creating a future city in the urban area in developing countries has challenges. There are challenges in the local government's system, the inadequacy of transport infrastructures, social and economic inequality and environmental consideration (Riffat, 2016). There are probably about 43 national regulations that need to be revised regarding Nusantara's positioning arrangement, regional boundaries, constitution and structure of local government, particular region for the centre of administration, and spatial and environmental planning for the Nusantara's development (Purwanto, 2021). There is a possibility of a functional shift of land use because the existing forest in the surrounding area of the designated location for Nusantara is unclassified as a protected forest (AM. 2019).

The infrastructure development of Nusantara requires to meet international standards and requirements. Developing a Smart Cities framework should align the strategic aspect (management process and implementations), processes (interoperability aspects), and technical aspects (developing the digital infrastructures) (Heaton, 2020). The currently adopted building, structural, mechanical, and plumbing codes follow the International Building Code, International Residential Code, and International Plumbing Code. The energy regulation follows the International Energy Conservation Code (Lee, 2018).

Table 1 shows the international standards for the creation of smart infrastructures.

2. Infrastructure development in Indonesia

According to the 2020 Quarterly Construction Establishment Survey (QCES) (BPS, 2020), the Central Bureau of Statistics (Indonesia) stated that Indonesia's Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was at a 10.56 per cent rate. The housing demand will continuously increase following the growth of the population, with a growth rate of 0.62 % within 2030-2035 (Jones, 2010). The initiative of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) and the decarbonisation pathway toward 2030 has

become one of the criteria for public policy development. Intelligent, green, and sustainable infrastructure is developing the future city. In developed countries such as EU countries, Japan and Singapore, their construction sector has focused on the sustainability requirement. Their government also incentivised the industry towards the net-zero carbon era in 2050 (McKinsey & Company, 2019). Modular construction offers a higher value for energy efficiency index, interchangeability functionality, the standard quality, which are worth its values compared to the conventional method, as shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1. Onsite construction vs modular construction (The American Institute of Architects, 2019)

By adopting the modular construction method, Indonesia will meet the eight criteria of sustainable development goals. The modular construction method achieves eight Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) parameters. Figure 2 shows the SDG applicable to the implementation of modular construction.

Figure 2. Sustainable development goals for modular construction.

The sustainability criterion for building infrastructures should consider a few aspects such as (1) Environmental: related to material, water, and energy consumption, waste generation, and carbon emission; (2) Economical: related to construction lifecycle cost; (3) Social: people comfort (noise reduction, thermal condition, indoor air quality), human interaction, and user flexibility; (4) Disaster resiliency: earthquake resistance and flood resistance (Maleki, 2019).

The decision-making for the infrastructure development should consider the dignity of the built environment

lifecycle that consists of (1) Process for land acquisition concerning the socio-economical condition of the local people; (2) Planning and financing of the public infrastructure, housing and transportation infrastructure with consideration of non-corruption and climate resiliency; (3) Design of the civil and architecture with inclusion of accessibility, physical and mental health; (4) Construction stage with consideration of high quality and managing construction worker's rights, health, and safety; (5) Operational, management and maintenance stage with technology adaption; and (6) Demolition & redevelopment with consideration of responsible disposal, re-use, recycling of building materials, project legacy, or land vacating (Institute for Human Rights and Business, 2019).

Performing standardisation and modularisation minimises the difficulty of ensuring the dignity of design and construction, where continuous monitoring of project integration is required. In this paper, the authors propose a strategy to overcome the challenges of creating a future city in North Penajam, East Kalimantan, by implementing the modular or off-site construction method to supply supporting infrastructures such as hospitals and school and office buildings. The modular construction concept can be the answer to the idea of Green, Smart and Sustainable (Ministry of National Development Planning, 2019). The supply chain modular construction cost is considered on the high-end side with about 10% to 15% of the entire building to accommodate the higher outlay cost for an initial fee of prefabricated construction, the off-site yard, and installation cost using heavy-duty cranes to lift and stack the modules (McKinsey & Company, 2019). Gibb (1999) stated that there are four degrees of modularisation comprising (1) components manufacture and subassembly, (2) non-volumetric preassembly, (3) volumetric preassembly and (4) an assembled modular building (Wuni, 2020). Figure 3 shows the stakeholder mapping for the modular construction (Manley, at al., 2009).

3. Research Methodology

The possibility of modular construction starts by examining the site condition from the building's environmental state, supply, and demand. The authors evaluate the modular construction application and the

comparison with the traditional construction from technical and cost aspects. Figure 4 shows the research methodology for this study.

4. Result and Discussion

4.1 The production management

Managing off-site infrastructure production or modular construction should be supported with five components: workforce, materials, methods, machines, and money. The details are as follows

a. Workforce

In modular construction development, considering the labour supply is essential. According to the Ministry of Public Works (Works Mi of P, 2021), East Kalimantan Province has 9,481 skilled construction workers with 3 Class Qualifications, as shown in Table 2.

Table 2. The total number of skilled construction workers (Works Mi of P, 2021)

Workers
1Minimum D1 (Diploma 1)Min. 3 years5443
2Minimum Vocational High
School
Min. 3 years1216
3Minimum Elementary

Min. 2 years2882

Based on the above data, East Kalimantan Province has an ample supply of skilled labour and can be a potential indicator for the development of modular construction. On the other side, the migration of government officials from the current Capital City of Jakarta will support the level of engineers' and officers' needs.

b. Materials

There are two primary materials for making modular construction modules: cement/concrete and steel. Researchers found that Balikpapan City has quite a several suppliers for both materials. Cement/concrete is supplied from Tuban (East Java), Maros (South Sulawesi), and Pangkep (South Sulawesi). Furthermore, steel is supplied from Cilegon (Banten), Derawan (South Kalimantan), Sebuku (South Kalimantan), Lengkabana (South Sulawesi), Longkana (South Sulawesi), and Verbeek, (Central Sulawesi).

c. Methods

The modular block for the apartment building is usually divided into two types of alternatives the reinforced concrete module with an estimated weight of 20-35 tons each and the steel module with a lighter weight of 15 to 20 tons. The module blocks require completed protection packaging during transportation and handling, with either temporary or fixed roof decking, temporary stiffening, and lifting. A lifting frame is used during the handling - the installation methods are stacking with the hoisting by crane (Koraishy, at al., 2011).

d. Machine

Modular block fabrications use automatic or semiautomatic constructions. The components use precast technology, mass engineer timber (MET) or hybrid (Koraishy, at al., 2011). The welding for steel modules usually uses robotic welding - the concrete precast uses an automated machine to produce uniform quality.

e. Money

Modular construction models are considered standard in a developed country. The government in the developing countries emphasises the contractors to adopt this smart construction since it reduces waste and adopts a sustainability mindset - the infrastructure's funding from the national budget, public-private partnership scheme, or international bank loan. The recent funding criteria are clean environmental goals and financial sustainability indicators (Asian Development Bank, 2022).

4.2 SWOT analysis

The application of modular construction in Nusantara's infrastructure development promotes sustainability and a green environment, aligned with Nusantara's development theme. Figure 5 shows the drivers, enablers, and barriers to applying modular construction in Nusantara.

The analysis has focused on assessing the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of implementing modular construction. Table 3 shows the SWOT analysis for implementing the modular construction method in Nusantara.

4.3 Risk analysis

In the modular construction methods, to avoid issues during construction stages, the designer should consider the module assembly modification and installation, water penetration during construction (stacked and unstacked modules), the access for inspection, the fire protection cost, the work environmental safety issues, the construction worker skills, module access hole and architectural flexibility (Pang, at al., 2016). The authors perform a risk analysis to understand the high risk of implementing modular construction for infrastructure development in Nusantara, as shown in Table 4.

The monitoring of the modular construction using the application of a combination of BIM software and

RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification) tag. The authentication check for the module part performs when composing the moulding part onto a module. The RFID tag also improves the efficiency in creating the cargo manifest for transporting to the construction site (Abbott, at al., 2020). The combination of BIM software and RFID is considered a good tool for monitoring modular construction's entire supply chain process. Figure 6 shows the flowchart for the adaption of BIM software into the whole of modular construction planning.

the apartment block. Modular construction methods should consider multi-criteria factors such as resources, lifecycle cost, environmental requirements, architectural quality, and functionality (Balcomb and Curtner, 2002). The analysis of infrastructure development costs starts from the preliminary to the disposal stage. The lifecycle cost for modular construction (Mao, at al., 2016) uses the following equation:

\[MLC = FC + MC + PC + CC + FMC + DC + OC\] (1)

Where:

MLC = Modular construction lifecycle cost PC = Preliminary Cost (Land acquisition cost and development fees)

MC = Management cost

FC = Financial cost OC = Overhead cost

CC = Capital Cost (Tendering Cost, Design Cost, Prefabricated Cost, Construction Cost)

FMC = Facility Management Cost (Operating Cost, Maintenance and Replacement Cost)

DC = Disposal cost (Demolition and site clearance)

The onsite construction cost includes site preparation, substructure, super substructure, finishes, assembly, fitout, and external works. In contrast, the prefabricated price consists of prefabrication component cost and transportation fee (Mao, at al., 2016). Table 6 shows the modular construction unit cost model (Mills, 2017).

The cost analysis for the modular construction includes the pricing of MEP (Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing) installation as part of the modular blocks in the manufacturing facility. MEP installation in conventional construction methods requires completing all the structural buildings. For Nusantara's infrastructure development, the government may utilise the off-site modular construction method to accelerate the provision of essential infrastructure in Nusantara. Converting the existing fabrication yard in the East Kalimantan area into a modular fabrication space will open new job markets.

5. Conclusion and Further Research

5.1 Conclusion
