description | This study investigated the utilization of currently available energy
and its implication on the ecological production of architecture materials. The
study focused on the sun-drying process used by craftsmen in the traditional
brickmaking process, arguing that such a practice demonstrates ways of utilizing
current energy that are informed by local knowledge and are ecological. Such a brick drying process was observed at two sites of traditional
brickmaking in Central Java, Indonesia. The result of the study indicated that
the drying process in brickmaking utilized various exposure strategies to maximize
the potential amount of heat from the sun that can be transferred to the bricks, which in turn influenced the flow of the
production process. The study then discussed the potential applications of such
knowledge in the modern brick manufacturing process to create a more ecological
production of architecture materials. |
