The transportation of deceased bodies is still commonly performed manually, requiring considerable manpower and often causing difficulties for attendants, especially when passing through narrow, uneven, or stairway areas. This study aims to design a modular bier based on a wheeled platform and a scissor lift mechanism, as well as to analyze its structural strength using the Finite Element Method (FEM). The design was developed as a three-dimensional model with a modular concept, allowing the bier to be used in two modes: a wheeled mode for flat surfaces and a manual mode for areas that are difficult for wheels to access. The main material used in this design is SS304. The FEM simulation was carried out under a static load of 1962 N, equivalent to 200 kg, distributed over five loading points. The simulation results showed a maximum von Mises stress of 1028 MPa and a maximum displacement of 10.11 mm. The stress value exceeded the yield strength of SS304, which is 206.8 MPa. Therefore, design optimization is required in the joint areas, scissor lift arms, support points, and upper platform frame before the design can be developed into a prototype.
