Evaluasi Kondisi Jembatan Kereta Api Bentang Tunggal

Degradation of railway bridge are influenced by aging, operational load, and environmental condition. Routine inspections on bridge are very important to give the information about existing condition. Limited of maintenance funding is the reason to rank bridge maintenance program or priority. PT KAI uses the Manajemen Perawatan Jembatan (MPJ, 1993) as bridge inspection procedure. The information however is in qualitative manner, which cannot justify the rank, so maintenance program is ineffective. Index condition model is one of alternative to resolve the problem, which can be used to rank the bridge structures or its components. The research carried out show index of 95.18 (very good) for BH (Bangunan Hikmat) 641 and index of 88.38 (very good) for BH 577. However condition of railroads for both of the bridges have index of 39.71(bad), thus need to be prioritized in maintenance program

A Critical Review of the Link Between Social Capital and Microfinance in Indonesia

Literatur meyebutkan bahwa metode kredit mikro secara kelompok (group lending method) dapat meghasilkan tingkat pengembalian yang tinggi karena berfungsinya modal social (social capital), seperti kekerabatan dan kerja-sama antar anggota kelompok, serta adanya sangsi kelompok (peer sanctions). Studi ini mengidentifikasi keterkaitan antara modal sosial dan keuangan mikro di Indonesia. Ada dua kesimpulan yang dapat diambil.Pertama, metode kredit secara kelompok di Indonesia masih jauh dari memuaskan karena kecilnya skala operasional. Disamping perkembankan kredit kelompok di Indonesia juga masih tergantung pada keberadaan subsidi dari pemerintah maupun lembaga donor lainnya.Kedua, kredit mikro yang mendasarkan pada modal sosial tidak harus mrenggunakan metode kredit kelompok. Kredit mikro yang diberikan secara individual, seperti BRI unit desa dan BKK, menunjukan perkembangan yang baik karena mengaitkan kredit denganmodal-modal sosial di masyarakat. Dalam hal ini kredit mikro yang disalurkan dengan cara memperkuat rasa saling mempercayai (mutual trust), kekerabatan antara peminjam dan petugas bank, serta keterlibatan tokoh masyarakat dapat menghasilkan tingkatpengembalian yang baik. Hal ini dimungkinkan karena modal-modal sosial tersebut dapat memperkuat loyalitas, dan memberi insentif kepada peminjam untuk berlaku jujur, dan mengembalikan kredit yang telah diberikan

Kajian Kelayakan Ekonomi Rencana Pembangunan Instalasi Pengolahan Air Limbah (Ipal) Domestik Komunal Sistem Uasb-dhs Di Kota Bogor

Domestic wastewater is one of the potential sources of environment pollution. Based on the JICA Report, 1995 the environmental pollution in Jabodetabek was 80% caused by the domestic wastewater. To minimize the environmental pollution, the wastewater have to be treated before discharge to river. Problem which often emerge in management of domestic waste is the limited land area and existing fund to built a wastewater treatment facility and also the high operating cost. To overcome these problems, it needs development of low cost wastewater treatment technology with high removal efficiency, easy to operate and also should be compact. A combination technology of Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) and Downflow Hanging Sponge (DHS) represents an economic wastewater treatment, easy to operate and has high removal efficiency that is 98% for BOD and 99,8% for bacterium. However, to build the wastewater treatment facility by using the UASB and DHS technology, it needs a feasibility study. This paper explains an economic and social feasibility study of application the UASB and DHS wastewater treatment technology at Bogor City. By the calculation of benefit and cost ratio (BCR), the result shows that the BCR is 2.13. It means the UASB and DHS wastewater treatment project at Bogor City was feasible

Kajian Pendahuluan Kelayakan Penerapan Instalasi Pengolahan Air Limbah Domestik secara Komunal di Permukiman Kota Bogor

A preliminary assessment of an application of sewerage system with Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) and Down flow Hanging Sponge (DHS) technology was conducted inNorth Bogor. The Problem which often emerge in management of domestic wastewater is the limited land area and fund to built and operate a wastewater treatment facility. To overcome such problem, it is needed to develop a cheap wastewater treatment technology with high efficiency, easy to operate and also should be compact. The combination technology of UASB and DHS is proposed as an economic wastewater treatment which easy to handling. Therefore, to make sure that the technology is feasible or not to be built inNorth Bogor, there is need the preliminary assessment. The assessment was conducted through a survey of technical and social economic aspect. The results show that sewerage system using UASB and DHS technology is feasible

Pengaruh Karakteristik Perusahaan, Struktur Kepemilikan, Dan Good Corporate Governance Terhadap Pengungkapan Triple Bottom Line Di Indonesia

This study aimed to analyze the effect of firm characteristics, ownership structure, corporate governance disclosure on the triple bottom line in Indonesia. Disclosure of the triple bottom line concept is defined as a result of the company's accounts reflect overall company performance both from the economic, social, and environmental. This study uses nine variables that predicted disclosure could affect the company's triple bottom line. Four variables are indicators of the characteristics of companies that leverage, profitability, liquidity, and industry types. Furthermore, there are three variables that are indicators of the ownership structure of the company is management ownership, foreign ownership, and institutional ownership. Meanwhile, two other variables show indicators of good corporate governance and the size of the board audit committee.This study used a sample of manufacturing firms listed Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2008-2011. A total of 200 annual reports of companies that meet the criteria have complete data for the study expressed as a sample. This study uses quantitative and analytical methods used is multiple regression.The results showed that not all of the variables in this study significantly influence the disclosure of the triple bottom line. Only the leverage variable, type of industry, size of board of directors, and audit committees that significantly influence the disclosure by the triple bottom line of the company. Other factors examined in this study such as profitability, liquidity, institutional ownership, management ownership, and foreign ownership does not significantly influence the triple bottom line disclosure by companies
