Assignment 02:
Application of Building Services
Cooperating with Architecture Design Studio V, the design scheme is related to a domestic size building, Project 02 assigning us to demonstrate our understanding on building services by proposing and designing the most appropriate system for our final design building individually on
​
-
Cold and Hot water supply system
-
Sewerage & Sanitary system
-
Drainage system
-
Electricity supply system
​
The objective of this project is as follows:
1. To develop students understanding and knowledge of building services systems in design and construction.
2. To apply appropriate building services system and solution for a specific design.
3. To demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of applicability of specific building services systems in the design in response to practical considerations.
4. To develop students’ ability to resolve issues related to specific building services systems.
​
Students are expected to be able to:
1. Identify relevant information related to cold and hot water supply system, sewerage & sanitary system, drainage system, and electricity supply system.
2. Describe the planning of building services within the total design and construction process.
3. Describe the installation of building services within the total design and construction process.
Final Outcome
The site is located on a highly dense urban area at the city center of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Hence along this project, the first step I have done is understanding the local building law and regulation on each respective system to ensure the building is functionable and operate legally.
Then, is the understanding of each element on each system with its function which is very important to me when allocate each element for a complete system through the building.
Reflection
The assignments in this subject give me a chance to explore to another part of architecture by assigning us to include ourselves in the planning, designing and execute in both building design and building services.
​
I am appreciate this which will give me a hand along this architecture life avoiding me from the mistake and the impropriate designing method by putting the reality in to our design which necessary, the BUILDING SEERVICES as one of the consideration from the design phase.
