Indonesia is a disaster-prone country and has a large population, as evidenced by the increasing number of disasters almost every year. In Aceh province, the second earthquake occurred on 7 December 2016 Wednesday, in the area of Pidie Jaya Regency. This earthquake has caused many deaths and injuries, and damage to buildings. The victims died and were injured mainly due to collapsed residential buildings and other damaged public buildings. The methodology used in this research is by observing and measuring both quantitative and qualitative in the field and then analyzed based on the components of government regulations. The first qualitative measurement uses a map digitization checklist prepared, then the field survey to take pictures and quantitative inspection based on the type of building, building level, and building construction elements. Finally, analyzing the data uses the building regulation component of the government. The results showed that the earthquake that occurred resulted in almost all buildings with modern structures suffered minor damage. The rest sustained small loss and severe damage (collapsing). All buildings with modern structures consist mostly of structural elements/materials that are not under government regulations. This study also found that there are still residential buildings with traditional structures not damaged by the earthquake. This finding is expected to provide public awareness that constructing settlements with modern structures must use structural elements and components under building regulations from the government.

The earthquake that occurred on 7 December 2016 with a magnitude of 6.4 SR in Pidie Jaya District, Aceh has resulted in many material and immaterial losses. Where many facilities and infrastructure are damaged, buildings are not multi-storey to high-rise buildings. One of them is a residential area around the At-Taqarrub mosque, which is in the Keude area, Trienggading sub-district, Pidie Jaya district. At-Taqarrub Mosque is one of the worship facilities that is heavily damaged and cannot be repaired. In the area only the At-Taqarrub mosque was the only building that collapsed, while the surrounding buildings were still standing with various kinds of damage. This journal is to find out the results of rapid assessment of the level of damage to buildings against structures and building materials around the At-Taqarrub mosque. The method used is the method of mapping and direct survey of the surrounding buildings and then determine the level of damage to the structural components and building architecture. The results of this study indicate various levels of post-earthquake building damage that occur and provide recommendations for buildings damaged in the earthquake in Pidie Jaya in particular and throughout Indonesia in general.
