Ben-Bow Enrichment Learning Centre in Klang
29/ 12 / 2018
The design develops into the final scheme of design where it interprets the tendency of creating interest through enclosure. The enclosure setting fits the contexts of creating a separate realm in conjunction of the prevailing street context. The realm where people can retreat and dwell into by having spaces to informally and formally elaborate learn through the form of classrooms &workshops, public rentable outlets giving a sense of place for anyone, a canteen to rehydrate oneself, public toilets accessible for everyone, dynamic facade initiative where greenery can be planted and replanted, and a compact "park". Spaces of place-making which develops with humankind in relation with the built form.

BEN - BOW LEARNING CENTER IN KLANG
Klang heeds the call towards a new form of social living through an architectural intervention which embodies the vibrancy nature in people to further gentrify the vicinity of the area regularly. Thus, the proposal of a design to interpret the needs of the people ideal learning centre of what can be done for the people, whilst an initiative adjourning the sprout of negative perception of the withered site. The Ben-Bow learning centre as a catalyst to reform the social vibrancy amongst the immediate column of people, to inject a social bond with one another which then results to the meaning of the site and its context.
Building Service
Menara PMI
Case study of building services in office buildings
11 / 5 / 2018
This group project to perform a case study on building services systems applied and installed in an office building less than 14 storeys. We are to discover and investigate the common building service systems that are used in a bigger volume for the users. This exercise requires us to develop our own understanding and analysis in the application of building services to make a building technically functional. This discovery will be useful in their future design studio projects to ensure that the building design proposals are practical and efficient.
The task were to elaborate and identify the practicality of the systems within Menara PMI
-
Mechanical ventilation
-
Mechanical transportation
-
Fire protection (active and passive)
-
Construction methods that could be used- special fixings and fixtures
LEARNING OUTCOME
-
To introduce us to the basic principles. process and equipment of various building services systems found in buildings (experiential learning)
-
To expose us into the integration of various building services systems in a building.
-
To allow us to demonstrate our understanding of building services systems and statutory requirements
-
To develop our understanding and familiarization in applying the correct graphic communications according the required standards（MSI 1184）
The report outcome of analyzing the building services is documentated and compacted within a format of a report
Aside from the report, a videologue is fabricated to showcase the building services of the decades old building
It was a fun and interesting experience. The freedom to explore within an office ,in KL, building along with a kind tour around the building by Mr. Norazli. He was gladful to allow us to record and explore the various building service functions of Menara PMI. This whole experience was filled with laughter, yet knowledge; fun whilst tiring, but to involve ourselves and to understand the practicality of these services in the building, a little humor attains the human values in us.

Building services- sanitary and sewerage
22 / 6 / 2018
An anatomy of a building will always compromise of sewerage and sanitary. They are where waste is managed and allocated moreover. Understanding the basic principles of implementing such services is essential to make a building a habitable whilst safe place to be. According to the By-Laws, we must abide with the regulations imposed for such amenities to work in a house. For this task, exploring how appliances and amenities are placed within the existing project of Ken's Home.
TASK
We are to demonstrate their understanding of building services by providing the most appropriate systems for the building, which include:
i) electrical supply system
ii) cold water and hot water supply system
iii) sewerage and sanitary system
iv) rainwater/ surface water drainage system
Along with the drawings to be reproduced into a computer-aided drawing with annotations which describe the planning and installation of all building services required. Students may also include specific clauses from the Uniform Building By-Law (UBBL) or other relevant Acts, Laws or guidelines that narrate to the proposed systems into their presentation drawings.
and also to produce a catalogue of the fixatures in the house.
LEARNING OUTCOME
-
Identify relevant information related to water and electrical supply, liquid waste disposal, sanitary and rainwater management system.
-
Describe the planning of building services within the design and construction peripheries.
-
Propose the more/most suitable systems for a specific type of building
Below presented, are the compilation of the appliance and sanitary within the home.
