Eksistensi Aksara Pegon : Media Penyebaran Ilmu Agama di Demak Kota Wali dengan Pendekatan Mix Method

This study aims to determine the existence of Pegon script in students and students in Demak Regency as the “kota wali”, then also to know how to write and read Pegon script. Then Knowing the effect of reading and writing Pegon script with BTQ (Read Write Al-Qur'an) lessons which are mandatory local content for schools in Demak.  this research district using Mix Method Analysis. The results of this study indicate the level of understanding of students and students about literacy development, there are high school students who still do not know much about the Pegon script. Most of them are junior high school students. However, Mts and MA schools have started to provide additional local content, nahwu shorof. How to read and write this script is quite easy. Here, in terms of reading and writing, it is necessary to pay attention to the rules and how to cooperate with the hijaiyah letters. The influence of BTQ (Read Write Al-Qur'an) lessons by reading and writing pegon script is that respondents who are able to read and write pegon script admit that this script is very useful when they want to increase fluency in reading the Qur'an

Prediction of flexural behavior of woven reinforced for concrete reinforcement

Plain concrete possesses very low tensile strength, limited ductility and little resistance to cracking. Fibers glass-reinforced concrete supposed to improve the strain properties well as crack resistance, ductility, as flexural strength and toughness. This paper aims to predict the flexural behavior of fiber-glass reinforced concrete and optimize the beam design by applying woven layer in M35 grade concrete using finite element method. The several techniques were implemented to study flexural performance, woven position on bottom, middle and upper surface and several woven thickness layers employed to investigate flexural performance such as 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 mm for beam size of 100 × 100 × 500 mm. It found that the flexural strength increased by positioned the woven on the bottom side and it given the improvement in designing when the layer thickness of fiber varied. It is because the fiber usually reduces the brittleness of concrete by providing post cracking ductility and increase toughness. The difference flexural strength between 50mm and 40mm thickness of fiberglass is about 1.29%
