Learning Outcomes of this Project
On completion of this assignment, students will be able to:
1. Identify relevant information related to water supply, liquid waste disposal, mechanical air-conditioning, fire safety and vertical transportation 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.
Tasks - Methodology
This project is related to the students’ studio design project in semester 2 which relates to a domestic size building (i.e. a retreat house, etc.)
Students are expected to demonstrate their understanding of building services by proposing and designing the most appropriate systems for the building which include:
i) electrical supply system (including split unit air-cond)
ii) cold water and hot water supply system
iii) sewerage and sanitary system iv) drainage system
Objectives of Project 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.
