Abstract

Lam Neuheun Village, Kuta Baro, located in Aceh Besar, Aceh, is one of the villages in Aceh Besar district, Aceh that strongly supports the government in preventing the spread of the COVID-19 virus. Currently, the transmission of COVID-19 is extremely fast and widespread in rural areas. Therefore, the village apparatus along with the citizens formed several task forces responsible for the transmission of COVID-19. Otherwise, they provide communal isolation houses for isolation COVID-19 sufferers and village people who have just returned from a long trip. Based on several recent studies, including airflow and daylight into the room to prevent the transmission of covid-19. The airflow that flows through the opening can replace the air pollution in the room, while natural light other than lighting can also provide health effects for humans. Therefore, this paper aims to evaluate the intensity of daylight in communal isolation houses to the community during this pandemic. Daylight intensity will be measured using the Velux daylight visualizer and Andrewmarsh: Dynamic Daylight. Based on the simulation results using the Velux daylight visualizer, Andrewmarsh application: Dynamic Daylight based on a certain time can provide strategies and design recommendations for isolation and quarantine for the people of Lam Neuhen Village, Kuta Baro.
