Building Joglo The Javanise Traditional Home


Building Joglo generate interpretations that reflect the tranquility of Javanese architecture.
NOT just a magnificent, beautiful, full of meaning and sociocultural values, architecture can also reduce joglo earth quake.A joglo generating interpretations reflect the tranquility of Javanese architecture, present in between the buildings of diverse. This interpretation has the characteristics of the use of a solid roof construction and the arch-arch shape in space per room.
Joglo frame of the main building of the Holy traditional house consists of a four-pillar of the main pole with a sleigh songo overlap (overlap nine) or intercropping telu (three overlapping) on top. Joglo structure like that, except as the support of the main structure of the house, as well as the pedestal to the roof of a house roof can be shaped pencu.
In joglo house building architecture, the art of architecture is not just an understanding of art house construction, is also a reflection of values and norms of society supporters. At the entrance has three doors, the main door in the middle and the second door on the left and right side of the main door. The third part of the door has a symbolic meaning that the moth fight in the middle for a big family, while two doors on the right side and left for besan.
In the inner room called Gedongan used as a sanctuary, where the Imam leading the prayers associated with symbolic meaning as a place that is sanctified, sacred, and sacred. Gedongan also serves as the main bed are respected and in particular waktuwaktu used as a bridal bedchamber.
Traditional buildings such as houses joglo many wearing natural elements in it, proved to be resistant to natural disasters such as earthquakes. Many factors cause joglo earthquake response. Deliberately used the word rather than perceptive earthquake resistant buildings earthquakes because this seems to be able to respond and dialogue with the force of the earthquake.
First, the structural system used. People thought joglo structured framework because it is seen logs that are prepared to form the framework. Joglo structure implements a tent or pull. This is based on the system and the connection properties of wood used (cathokan and birds), it is anticipated tensile force.
“Building joglo able to reduce the earthquake because it has a linkage antarstruktur and its material, the connection is not rigid antarkayu so flexible and have a high tolerance for earthquakes,” says architect and contractor from Mitra Mandiri Graha Asri Ir Wisnu Brata. Second, the system load distribution.
Joglo have a cornerstone (main beam) 4 fruit and 12 fruit pengarak cornerstone. Space created by the fourth pillar is called rong-drive, which is the core structure joglo. Soko-united by a pillar of the blocks (blandar-sledge and sunduk-seam) and compiled by the composition-kakukan berundak punden shaped timber upside down on the edge (intercropping) and the shape of a pyramid in the middle (brunjung).
The composition of this wood are bobby pins and creates a very rigid rigidity. Soko-pillar pengarak in fairies is seen as supporting the core structure. The third factor is the support system and connection system. Joglo pedestal system using the character umpak joints. This is to compensate for the behavior of structures that are flops. Systems that do not wear nail joints, but tongue groove system, allows tolerance of the forces acting on the logs. “Tolerance is causing some friction so that the building can accommodate accept earthquake forces.
Selection and use of building materials is the fourth factor. The use of wood for the walls (gebyok) and clay tile roofing materials due to this relatively mild so not to burden the building.

At first roof covering that is used is straw, coconut leaves, sugarcane leaves, shingles, and the weeds. Therefore, bubonic plague broke out, the Dutch colonial government to replace the tile roof coverings to be more healthy.(By:Cheriatna)
