Training on the Installation of Steel Frame Construction to the Johar Baru Community, Central Jakarta City

The decreasing supply of conventional timber resources, specifically teak, combined with escalating material expenses, has prompted investigation into substitute building components for structural applications such as roofing frameworks. Low-carbon steel presents promising characteristics including reduced weight, malleability, and immunity to insect degradation, positioning it as a practical option. Nevertheless, implementing this metal-based construction approach necessitates skilled personnel to maintain both efficiency and workmanship standards. Addressing this requirement, the Community Engagement Division of Christian University of Indonesia organized a capacity-building workshop focused on low-carbon steel framework assembly for Johar Baru Village inhabitants. The initiative utilized educational seminars coupled with practical demonstration techniques to strengthen participants' comprehension of material properties, installation protocols compliant with technical specifications, and hands-on proficiency in autonomous roof truss construction.
