Summary: | The objective of this research is to make an effective effort to utilize dry leafs and paper waste to produce environment-friendly products. One of the implementations is to produce panels from dry leafs waste and paper to be applied as interior design materials. The considerations for selecting panel materials include the flexibility, the broad scope of utilization, the ease of application, the achievement of solid perception, and the familiarity to community.
The method to construct those materials is called vertical cross configuration, in which several types of waste paper and dry leafs were experimented into panel arrangements for the use of construction and aesthetic structures. In accordance with the theme of this study, 'fragility forms solidity', the treatment process adjusted to the character of waste: in the form of sheets, thin, brittle, and limp into a solid, strong, and solid panel area through the manufacturing method produced from previous research, namely the cross configuration method. This method utilized dry leafs and paper that is weak and fragile into a unified, hard, and sturdy panel area with a thickness of 20 mm. Several laboratory tests were carried out to determine the technical capabilities of the panel.
The test results show that dry leafs and paper waste materials can be combined into panels called com-boards with the same direction of function but with increased capabilities. To conclude, waste paper and dry leafs can be made into interior elements through a vertical cross configuration method that has aesthetic and economic value. |
