Redesain Fasilitas Tangga Sebagai Evaluasi Ergonomi dengan Kerangka Ideas dan Analisis Posture Evaluation Index pada Objek Wisata Muria Kudus

Abstract

As part of the building that connects between rooms, the staircase design is actually equipped with SNI 03-1746-2000 standard. But in its application, there are stairs that are less ergonomic and pose potential hazards, such as the stairs at Muria Kudus tourism site. The hiking trail has approximately 400 steps and a distance of about one kilometer. This study was conducted as an ergonomics evaluation to this condition. Based on the preliminary questionnaire results to 30 tourists and the analysis of Posture Evaluation Index (PEI), it was known that the stair design caused tourists to experience excessive pressure on the skeletal muscles which include the back, waist and lower muscles. The study then continued with simulation and Task Analysis Toolkit (TAT) on the actual Virtual Environment posture using the 8.2 Jack software. Four types of configuration formulation were proposed to improve hand grip height and stair height, according to the SNI 03-1746-2000. Based on the recalculation of the PEI value and the TAT analysis in the proposed posture, we concluded that the 10-96 configuration was the best. By applying this practical solution in the future, the potential hazard of injury for tourists visiting the Muria Kudus sure can be minimized.
