STUDY OF THE EFFECT OF ROOF MATERIAL AND JOGLO ROOF SHAPE ON THE TEMPERATURE OF THE INDOOR ROOM

Abstract

Architecture is a manifestation of cultural identity that involves a cultural process and has an internal nature. In Javanese society, the knowledge of building houses is carried out through traditions and simple methods. Traditional Javanese houses have many variations in roof forms, with the Joglo roof drawing particular interest and encouraging deeper exploration into traditional Javanese architecture. However, many people still lack an understanding of how the traditional Javanese roof affects indoor temperature. It is important to understand the factors that influence the choice of roofing materials and the shape of the Joglo roof in relation to indoor thermal comfort. Additionally, identifying the research landscape related to this topic is essential. This study uses a systematic literature review by collecting several journals related to roofing materials, Joglo roofs, indoor thermal comfort, and traditional Javanese house comfort. The aim is to analyze research conducted over the past ten years. The results explain how the realization of Javanese houses and their spatial and formal meanings are deeply rooted in culture. Over time, the development and use of various roofing materials and forms have become influential factors in determining indoor temperature, as seen in studies from the last decade.
