Performance Assessment on Porous Paving Made with Fly Ash as Landscape Architecture Element in Bandung Urban Area

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper discusses the performance of locally made porous paving that has been applied in West Bandung, Indonesia, for almost one year. The porous paving uses fly ash and bottom ash produced by a local coal mining industry to minimize the use of cement and to reuse the industry’s waste. The porous properties of the paving corresponds substantially to the context of the high yearly rainfall in the tropical region up to 442 mm3 and to the high terrain of Lembang in 1080 meters above sea level which is best to immediately recharge ground water. In this paper, the paving’s performance is assessed for its role as a landscape architecture element by applying Vitruvius’ design theories of beauty: firmitas (by the ability to maintain shape or strength), utilitas (by its ability to infiltrate water) and venustas (by its physical appearance or signs of deterioration). The results show that the porous fly-ash paving demonstrate environmentally landscape architectural element. It will significantly contribute to the degrading quality of spatially dense urban environment of Bandung
