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.
Studio V
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 Construction II
Skeletal design in a Bus shelter
Skeletal Construction
6 / 10 / 2017
With my group consisting of 5 people: Kalvin Bong Jia Ying, Kang Zi Shan, Chee Jia Xin, and Chin Man Choong. We are to understand and study the practicality of the construction of a bus stop at a small scale.
TASK
-
SCALE- shelter is constructed within scale of 1:5 and to accommodate 5-6 people. Max height of 600mm and 400mm x 800mm base size.
-
CONSTRUCTION- have basic understanding of the use and applications of roof, columns, beams, and floor.
-
FORM- use any mix of 2 forms give to us such as: cuboid and cube
-
JOINTS- understanding use and representation of actual joints in real life scale of model
-
MATERIALS- use of suitable materials with appropriate properties of strength and stability of the model
TEST
-
ensure small scale model is able to withstand lateral forces
LEARNING OUTCOME
-
Apply construction system into design
-
Recognize implications of construction system in design
-
Analyze issues of strength, stiffness, and stability of structures in modes of structural systems, forces, strains/ stress, and laws of statics.
Mock up models of our initial idea and take of the bus shelter design
initial massing of form
exploration of technique and form
final layout of intended form along with consideration of structural analysis and components
initial massing of form
Progress work-in-progress of the construction of our bus station
Model representation of our Bus Stop withstanding heavy loads of more than 6-10kg.
The progress is bounded and compacted into a format of a report. Essentially it demonstrates the design practicality among the steel structures universally and in Malaysia. The Bus Shelter created depicts the effort and knowledge in design to be an understandable process in which relevant people among the construction industry can comprehend and perform the required task in design.
