2.0 Air conditioning system 2.1 Introduction Air conditioning is the process of altering the properties of air to a more habitable condition, typically on countering the problems regarding temperature and humidity. Besides, it can also be referred to various application such as heating, cooling, de-humidification, humidification, cleaning, ventilation, air movement and others that modifies the condition of air. The invention of air conditioning has not just made inhabitable spaces habitable, but making it more comfortable in which hugely increases the overall productivity of employees, workers, professionals and even machinery in the community. Air conditioning has proven sustainable and health conscious when it gives optimal air quality, reduces dust, smoke and harmful microorganisms in the air. Hence, it is also very efficient and protects other electrical equipment.

2.2 Implementation of air conditioners Several factors are taken into considerations when the implementation of air conditioning in a space of building is determined. It starts with the building orientation to the position of the sun. Absorption of heat is more prominent when the longer side of the building is on the east or west facade compared to north and south side. Moreover, the building materials used is also a huge factor in the relative heat gain in a building. The architectural approach, climate condition of the site, design of the building also affects the overall amount of heat penetration into a building, a poor ventilated building will require more units of air conditioners. Lastly, the function and program of the room will determine the electrical system planning necessary for the building.

2.3 Thermal comfort Air conditioner contribute to human comfort with regulating four factors of the air. Firstly, it is the temperature of the surrounding. Air conditioner is capable of altering the properties of air by heating or cooling till it falls in the comfort and habitable range, which ranged between 20 to 26. Humidity of the air is also one of the factors being altered with air conditioning, to regulate the moisture so that it achieves the ideal relative humidity. The next factor is air movement, which must be balanced without too extreme or too weak. It depends hugely on the temperature and air purity for filtering dust and airborne pollutants.

2.4 Refrigeration cycle The air conditioner uses principles of simple physics which is known as phase conversion of liquid into gas which absorbs heat. The air conditioner forces specific chemical compounds known as refrigerant through constant process of evaporation and condensation to condition air continuously. In the refrigerant cycle, the cold and low pressured evaporator coils which is filled with coolants which absorbs heat. This heat converts the refrigerant from liquid to gas through a process of evaporation. It is transferred to the compressor which coverts low pressured gas to high pressured gas, thus the gas is being released into the condenser coil and transferred to outside. Secondly, the hot condenser coils converts hot vapour refrigerant to liquid refrigerant by releasing its heat to the surrounding. This technology circulates only the minimum amount of refrigerant needed at any one time and enables individual climate control of air conditioning zones. The name VRV * derives from this technology that we call “variable refrigerant volume.�

VRV is an air condition system for commercial building application with sophisticated individual zone control. A VRF air conditioning system is a particular type of heat-pump air conditioning system in which one outdoor unit can be connected to multiple indoor units. Each indoor unit is individually controllable by its user and a variety of unit styles can be mixed & matched to suit individual tenancy requirements e.g. high-walls, cassettes and ducted units.

7


The outdoor unit can be made up of a number of modules to create the required capacity. The compressors can be operated at varying speeds, so the VRF units work at only the rate needed to meet the prevailing heating or cooling requirements, considerably enhancing their efficiency. Each ‘outdoor unit’ can be made up of up to 3 modules, each having up to3 compressors. Often there will be a separate ‘outdoor unit’ for each floor or pair of floors sized to match the load. Large buildings can have up to 30 or 40 compressors in total. A large building can have in the order of 50-60 indoor units, and up to 1,000 metres of refrigerant piping to connect them to their outdoor units. The refrigerant pipework will also be fitted with several control boxes to create the correct flow of refrigerant to the indoor units. The efficiency of many VRF systems can be further enhanced by their ability to provide simultaneous heating and cooling. An example of this would be cooling an east facing office subject to direct sunlight on a cool sunny morning, and using the heat extracted to warm up a cooler west facing office which does not have the benefit of direct sunlight. A basic (simplified) schematic of a typical 2-pipe VRF system is provided below, indicating simultaneous heating (red) and cooling (Blue).

3.0 Mechanical transportation system 3.1 Introduction A lift or an elevator is a vertical transport equipment used to move goods and people efficiently in a vertical matter between levels of a building and other structures. Generally powered by electric motor that drive by traction cable and counterweight systems like a hoist or hydraulic pump. Lift is very important because of buildings nowadays are built in a more vertical fashion due to high land cost. An elevator or lift is serving two or more defined levels, whereby dimensions and means of construction permit the access of people. Vehicle responsible of raising and lowering people or goods from one floor to another floor within a building or with intermediate stops. Characteristic of lifts Lift needed for the building more then 6 storey Installation must be in accordancde with the regulation in UBBL Suitable speed 100-150ft/min. Too fast will result in a nervous breakdown to the user. If too slow will cause lack of function Types of lift systems There are three types of convoying methods in buildings, elevations & escalators & ramps, have different dimensions and uses according to building type & number of users in it. Elevator types 1- Hoist mechanism 2- Building height 3- Building type 4- Elevator location 5- Special location

Based on UBBL requirements, for all non-residential buildings exceeding 4 storeys above or below the main access level at least one lift shall be provided. 1. Traction elevators 10


Traction elevators are elevated by ropes, which pass over a wheel attached to an electric motor above the elevator shaft. They are used for mid and high rise applications and have much higher travel speeds then hydraulic elevators. B- Gearle ss traction elevators They have the wheel attached directly to the motor. Gear less traction elevators are capable of speeds up to 2000 feet per minute. Besides, traction elevators do not have a dedicated machine room above the elevator shaft .

Electrical lift Common type used today Use electric lift cable to lift the weight and movement is the catalyst action Use the traction with the motor Used in most building>60ft Motor room on top of lift shaft will increase the load of building structure Possibility of noise structure Need a lift wells and maintenance room near the engine room

3.2 Universal Building By Law ( UBBL ), Malaysia According to UBBL 1984 clause 124, a lift shall be used provided for non residential buildings which exceeds 4 storeys above or below the main entrance of the building. It is also essential in buildings less than 4 storeys if access for older or disabled. The maximum walking distance is 45 meter to the lift lobby. Section 153 1 All lift lobbies shall be provided with smoke detectors. 2 Lift not opening into a smoke lobby shall not use door reopening devices controlled by light beam or poto detectors unless incorporated with a force close method which closes the door within a present time after 30 seconds of any interruption. Section 151 Ventilation to the lift shafts Where `openings to lift shafts are not connected to protected lobbies, such lift shafts shall be provided with vents of not less than 0.09 sqm located at the top of the shaft, Where the vent does not discharge directly to the open air lift shafts be vented to the exterior through a duct of required FRP as for the lift shaft. Section 152 Car operating panel COP 1. Every opening in a lift shaft or lift entrance shall open into a protected lobby unless other suitable means of protection to the opening to the satisfaction of the local authority is provided. These requirements shall not apply to open type industrial and the other special buildings as may be approved by the DGFS. 2. Landing doors shall have a FRP of not less than half the FRP of the hoistway structure with a minimum FRP of half hour.

15


Section 154 (1) On failure of mains power all lifts shall return in sequence directly to the designated floor, connecting with the fire lifts, without answering any car or landing calls and park with doors open. (2) After all lifts are parked the lifts on emergency power shall resume normal operation:

Provided that where sufficient emergency power is available for operation of all lifts, this mode of operation need not apply.

Traction elevators Traction elevator is the most common elevator used. Elevator car is pulled using steel belts over a pulley system which is commonly called sheave in the industry. The car is balanced with a counterweight. Steel belts has high friction coating and they are light because of its carbon fibre core.

16


Geared Traction Elevators Geared traction elevator has a gearbox attached to AC or DC motors. The electric motor drives a worm-and-gear-type reduction unit. This gear reduction gives an advantage of requiring less powerful motor to turn the sheave. This elevators are able to travel speeds up to 500 feet per minute and its maximum distance is around 250 feet.

Counterweight Counterweight is to counterbalance the weight of elevator car with additional of approximately 40% load. This is to maintain a proper traction for the elevator car while under varying loads. Counterweight fillers are weight pieces stacked together within the frame.

Buffers Buffer is to stop a descending car or counterweight and soften the force of the elevator during an emergency. Oil buffer are commonly used in traction elevators because they travels with speeds higher than 200 feet per minute. It uses a combination of oil and springs to cushion descending cars. It is usually located in elevator pit because its location in pit buffers have tendency to be exposed to water. Oil buffers require oil checked and changed if exposed to wate

4.0 Fire protection system 4.1 Introduction Fire safety management is very important in the concept of providing total safety in a building. This system should be planned at the design stage of fire safety provisions using the engineering approach. Without the proper protection of a fire fighting system, the risk of material loss, injuries and even death of occupant are immensely increased.

4.2 Literature Review There are no excuses to ignore fire safety within the building, therefore early proper fire safety planning before the building was built is so important because it could save numbers of million people from hazardous smoke and deadly fire. Inside the building, tools, equipment and system used ranging between firefighting, warning alarm, smoke detector and 24 hours monitoring system and duty communication. As the matter of fact, fire safety is classified in two main categories which are Passive and Active fire protection. Passive fire protection allows the fire to act upon the system itself with the attempt to slow the spread of the fire through fire resistant walls, floors and doors. It is basically a planner matter considered at the early stage of the building design, Such as the selection of fire resistant materials, providing access for fire appliance, installation of fire wall and floor, and dividing the building into compartments both vertically and horizontally with the aim to limit the size of the fire and minimizing the loss of occupant even in the critical circumstances when active fire protection fails to operate. Architects are advised to follow (UBBL) 1984 standard, in order to achieve a better fire protection system and safety for the occupants. Beside passive protection, building also operates under full time duty active fire protection system. This method also described as direct suppression method which refers to the tools used in terms of controlling fire damage. The system works under collaboration between electronic, mechanical and software engineering which to be used to fight the fire when in the same time to alert the occupants in case of overheat or particular explosion occurred. In the event when the smoke or fire was not detected or warning signal was unsuccessfully sent to the control room, occupants also can trigger the warning alarm by breaking the glass in common way. Firefighting system will be launched when a building is catching a comparative massive fire to extinguish it. There are 2 main fire suppression methods, which is non- water based and water based system. Non-water based system discharge co2 gas or aragonite gas to extinguish the fire only in 18


unoccupied room such as HVAC room, MSB room, and PA room. In water based system, water is stored in its own respective tank with an adequate capacity located in basement. Water is pumped to hydrant, hose reel, and sprinkles that provided in each floor in standby condition. Fire detection systems are mainly consists of alarm bell, smoke detector and manual call point. These instruments are connected to the control panel room at the ground floor. In the event of fire, silent warning and location of fire will be displayed in control panel. From that point, control guard will do double checking through CCTV on that respective area and trigger the warning alert to all the occupants to leave the building immediately in case of fire or explosion. Bell alarm located at every floor of the building mainly next to emergency exit door. Smoke detectors can be found in every floor ceiling to make the fire suppression more effective. Portable fire extinguisher has to be placed in strategic area so it can be used upon the emergency circumstances. Dry powder and Co2 are mainly used in commercial building. Dry powder commonly can be found around emergency staircase, lobby, and corridors, while co2 can be found in water sensitive area such as HVAC room, MSB room, and PA room. Fire escapes must be located in protected areas and provided with proper standardized equipment such as fire proof door, portable fire extinguisher, and emergency sign on the door. Smoke exhausts are also installed which is connected to giant fan on the roof top to control the smoke during the evacuation.

2.3 Components Hose Reels Hydraulic hosereel conforming to the requirements in SS CP 29 Code of Practice for Fire Hydrant Systems and Hose Reels shall be provided in every storey of every building regardless of building height, except the following: (iii) Any other small building such as guardhouse/post, bin centre, open-sided shed, etc Small buildings, refer to detached buildings, such as pump room to swimming pool, bin compound, guardhouse, greenhouse, garden tools shed, etc, would not be required to be provided with hydraulic hosereel. However, suitable type of fire extinguisher should be provided instead.

23


(b) Size and type

The hose reel should be of 20mm or 25mm nominal diameter, non-kinking reinforced rubber or reinforced PVC to either BS3169 Type A or AS1221, not exceeding 30 m in length and terminating in “shut-off” branches with 4 mm or 6 mm nozzles.

(1) The reel or drum should be of adequate size to wind up the 30m length hose. (2) The length of the hose should not exceed 30m. The main reasons are: (a) an occupant using the hose reel to fight an incipient fire need not traverse more than 30m. Consideration must be given that the occupant needs to retrace his path to a safe exit if the incipient fire could not be put out. Thus, the aggregate travel distance to and from the incipient fire should not be excessive; (b) longer than 30m hose would require a bigger reel which would create some difficulties in running out the hose and that jamming of tubing could occur when in use. (3) An operating instruction notice plate should be provided next to the stop valve. The hose reel operating instructions shall be: “Turn on the inlet valve before running out the hose” (4) All hose reels should be tested at least once a year. The test is to ensure that they are maintained in working order and able produce a jet of water with a minimum of 6m throw. (5) Hose reels located in recesses or cabinets shall bear the appropriate sign in accordance with SS 364 1993 on ‘Fire Safety Signs’. (6) Hose reels are now required to be type tested by a recognised testing laboratory to meet the standard of EN 671 – 1 or equivalent and are subject to the Productivity & Standards Board Inspection Scheme.

CO2 system Types of Carbon Dioxide Fire Suppression Systems The high pressure system utilizes DOT spun steel storage cylinders. These cylinders are kept at room temperature and the pressure within the cylinder varies according to temperature. At a 70 degrees F ambient temperature, the internal pressure in such a unit would reach 850 PSI. These cylinders are available in 50, 75 and 100 pound capacities.

On the other hand, the low pressure storage unit maintains the CO2 in a refrigerated pressure vessel. Typical storage temperature is 0 degrees F with a corresponding CO2 vapor pressure of 300 PSI. The refrigerated storage concept uses an ASME coded pressure vessel with a 350 PSI working pressure. Such units are available in standard capacities from 1 1/4 through 60 tons. Larger units have been made for special applications.

From this basic difference in storage configuration, different methods of application and control for the two types of systems are derived. Since the maximum capacity of a high pressure cylinder is 100 pounds of CO2, most systems consist of multiple cylinders manifolded together to provide the required quantity of carbon dioxide. Each cylinder has its own individual discharge valve and once opened, the cylinder contents will completely discharge.

26


3.5.6 Argonite and CO2 suppression system Besides using the fire extinguisher, Menara KLK is also equipped with the usage of argonite and carbon dioxide suppression system. The Main Control Panel Room uses the argonite suppression system. It functions when a fire occurs and spreads in the control room; high pressure of argonite is

released and fills the room. Argonite is used because the occupants’ still has time to be able to exit the room even when the argonite is released. It is safer than carbon dioxide since carbon dioxide kills when inhaled. When argonite is released, it prevents oxygen in the room to produce combustion with the fire, but in fact suppressing it. CO2 suppression system is found in the LV room as it is more hazardous than any other room in the building and has very limited human activity in the room. CO2 suppression system is presented by low toxicity and excellent insulation property. The system us used to put out fire within location that is surrounded by adaptors, panels, fittings, and electrical connections. CO2 assists by extinguishing fire by the reduction of temperature to eliminate oxygen gas from the surrounding and substitute them with CO2 gas, which controls the function of the system instantly – heat and smoke detectors to detect fire and sprinklers to deploy in the area. Therefore, CO2 suppression system would be a better choice as usage in the LV room. UBBL: Where hazardous processes, storage or occupancy are of such character as to require automatic sprinklers or other automatic extinguishing system, it shall be of a type and standard appropriate to extinguish fires in hazardous materials stored handled or for the safety of the occupants. (UBBL pg 82, 226)

27


Hydrant system (wet & dry riser) Dry and wet rising mains are intended for use by the fire brigade or other trained personnel It provide a readily available means of delivering considerable quantities of water to extinguish or to prevent the spread of fire. Dry risers Design Standard M.S.1489 Part 1: Hydrant System, Hose Reels and Foam Inlets; M.S.1210 Part 2: Landing Valves for Dry Risers; M.S 1210 Part 3: Inlet Breeching Inlet for Risers Inlet M.S 1210 Part 4: Boxes for Landing Valves for Dry Risers

Design Method of Dry Riser System; It should be complied with UBBL 1984, the by Laws 230 and 232 Dry Risers are a form of internal hydrant and are only required for buildings where the topmost floor is higher than 18.3 meters and less than 30.5 meters. Dry Risers are basically dry and all depends upon the Fire Engine to pump water into the system by considering the Breeching Inlet to be located about 30 meters from the External Hydrant System.

28


Landing Valves are provided on each floor and should comply with M.S 1210: Part 2. Those Landing Valves would be located within the fire access lobbies, protected staircases or other protected lobbies at not more than 0.75 meters from the floor level. To protect the landing valves, boxes may be provided and these should comply with M.S.1210 Part 4. Fire Hose Reel Pipings > 38mm dia., 30 meters in length, complete with 65mm dia. Quick Coupling and nozzle should be provided at each landing valve. Breeching Inlet would be installed at the bottom of the riser and should comply with M.S. 1210: Part 3. The breeching inlet is enclosed within a box, the enclosure should comply with M.S.1210 Part 5 and labeled ‘Dry Riser Inlet’ and a typical drain should be provided at the bottom of the riser to drain the system after used. 2 – Way Breeching Inlet should be provided for a 100mm dia. Of dry riser pipes but 4 – Way Breeching Inlets : 200mm dia. Of Dry Riser Pipes and should be located 18 meters from the fire appliance access road. (the distance of fire fighters truck to be placed) The riser pipe diameter size – 150mm usually located within the fire access lobby or staircase if the highest outlet is more than 22.875m above the breeching inlet. Otherwise the riser pipe diameter size – 100mm. The material of the Riser Pipe shall be Galvanised Iron to B.S. 1387 (heavy gauge) or Class C, tested to 21 Bars (305 Psi) All feeding Pipe-works that runs horizontally need to be sloped to enable proper draining after used and also an Air Release Valve should be installed at the top of the riser to relief air trapped in the system. The riser pipe should be electrically earthed or connected to the building earth to achieve equipotential. The riser to be hydraulically tested to a pressure of 14 Bars for 2 hours that to be measured at the Breeching inlet and not forget to check all leakage at the joints and landing valves connections. Wet riser is a pipe kept permanently charged with water available either direct from a storage tank, via a booster pump, or fed directly from the towns main water supply. Before installation of a dry or wet riser mains the local fire brigade must be consulted, to ascertain their exact requirements. Wet risers are a form of internal hydrant for the fireman to use and are always charged with water.

29


Sprinkler system Major features of the fire suppression systems are documented based on a review of the available information. In addition to describing in detail the sprinkler, standpipe, and preconnected hose systems, special fire suppression systems are briefly discussed. System features documented include riser systems, zone arrangements, water tanks, pumps, fire department connections, control valves, and hose rack arrangements. Additionally, documentation of the sprinkler, standpipe, and preconnected hose system installations was examined for consistency with the applicable installation standards and state-of-the-art engineering practices at the time of system installation. A description water supply, including sizes, locations, and directions of water mains surrounding the building complex and distribution system within the buildings is provided to adequately evaluate the primary source of water for the automatic sprinkler and hose systems. Adequacy of the sprinkler system water supply was based on a detailed review of the available documentation. Flow capacity and duration of water supplies to the installed sprinkler systems were estimated using industry accepted software. Hydraulic calculations were performed with variations in primary and secondary water supplies, the number of sprinklers flowing, and floor level elevations. The results from the calculations were used to evaluate the expected sprinkler system performance.

30


Downcomer system

Downcomers are also a form of internal hydrant for the firemen to use and are always charged with water from a water tank located at the top of a building but without any pumps. Downcomers are only permitted for private residential buildings with open balcony approach where the topmost floor is not higher than 60 metres above the fire appliance access level and should be adopted for low cost flats only. Downcomers system comprises a high level water storage tank discharging into 150mm diameter riser pipe with landing valves at each floor and to which canvas hose with nozzles can be connected to direct the water jet at the fire. No pumps are provided and therefore the system pressure is limited to the static pressure only.

31


Fire alarm system Alerting the occupants and detecting the incident at early stage is very important before the fire spread and combusting the whole building. Hence, the use of fire or smoke sensitive detector and early warning is a compulsory procedure within the building. Fire alarm panels, bells, manual switch (break glass), smoke detector and heat detector are tools and equipment that used under the active fire protection system

32


Clean agent system Clean Agent systems provide protection for facilities containing valuable corporate assets from people and processes to equipment and software. They combine the benefits of clean agent systems and active fire protection with peoplesafe, environmentally friendly performance. The Value of the facilities contents (such as a church) or the importance of the facility to a company's business continuity (for example, a data processing center) requires a fire suppression system that can react in seconds. Water sprinkler systems are not available, or if present, may damage the contents of the facility to be protected or pose an electrical safety problem for fire fighters. People occupy the facility to be protected (a process control center is a typical application). The use of a clean fire suppression agent is required to keep downtime to a minimum (as in an automated plant). There is a limited amount of storage space available for the fire suppression system agent containers. Portable fire extinguisher Fire extinguisher is an extinguishing agent. Eureka building uses dry chemical extinguishing agent. Dry chemicals usually use a mix of monoammonium phosphate and ammonium sulfate. It insulates class A fire by melting at approximately 350400째C. The powder breaks the chain reaction of class B fire by removing oxygen from the area and prevents vapour from reaching the explosion source. IPharm uses two types of fire extinguishers which are dry powder and carbon dioxide suppression system. T he formation of the fog is due to discharging of gases in the protected

33


area due to drastic lowering of the temperature to the dew point. It is stored in strong steel, pressure resistant tanks. The system is activated by the smoke and heat detectors

34


Smoke control system

Smoke detection is a detection system that alerts and warns the building occupants of the occurrence of a fire, thus providing them an early warning to escape from the building. Smoke detection can help to give the first indication to the occupants inside if there is fire. There are smoke detectors installed in the office s too. Rooms where electricity current is more prominent and highly flammable . Thus, smoke detectors are required to detectors are required to detect the occurrence of fire . Smoke detection are recommended when there is no pressurized escape route in the building. This, smoke detectors are required to detect the occurrence of fire.

Keluar/Emergency Lighting

An escape route should lead to a safety place without reliance on external assistance . The ultimate safety place is the open air outside the building, clear from the effect of fire. In large complexes, it should be possible to reach a place of reasonable safety such as protected staircase/corridor where people can travel in relative safely to a final exit.

35

5.0 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM 5.1 Introduction of the system Getting back to the origin of the energy source, electricity as we are talking about electrical service system, in Malaysia the current distribution is set by Tenaga Nasional Berhad through a national grid which disperse high voltage to a certain perimeter. The current is filtered through transformers set by TNB itself and is distributed to individual units for domestic usage. Different category of buildings requires different amount and rate of distribution as for example; from shop-houses to high rise buildings. As for the present time, this report illustrates an analysis and observation records of the electrical system of a 5-storey building.

5.2 What is Electricity? In physics: Electricity is a form of energy resulting from the existence of charged particles (such as electrons or protons), either statically as an accumulation of charge or dynamically as a current. In our everyday life: In order to make it more simple and understandable, electricity in its simplest basis, is a machine generated form of energy produced through the assistance of other type of energy such as kinetic and solar energy and which are by next converted into this form of energy. Electricity aliments our everyday routine, as from household to society well-being.

5.3 What are the systems available in the building? When it comes to building services, various categories of systems are concerned even when it serves for the wellness of one purpose, which in this case is to analyse the provision of electricity within the Kuala Lumpur Baptist Church.

The systems available within the facility are listed below: 1. Lightning protection 2. Lighting system 3. Electrical generated acoustic system 4. Power point system 5. Electrical generated security system 6. External infrastructure (TNB)

As from the analysis covered various facilities as the ones listed above are available within the facility and are functioning by electricity generated function in order the carry on their own distinctive role within the premises.

5.5 ANALYSIS OF SYSTEMS 1. Lightning protection system According to the international building standard every built premises should provide security alternatives concerning electricity circuits in cases of short-circuits or system blackout. The analysis has been categorized in three (3) main features in order to achieve a proper understanding of the subject matter.

Sub content:   

Function of system Components available in system On-site analysis and comments

The unique and primordial function of this system is to distribute electrical power through the overall of the premises in order to allow sub-systems and the other basic systems to function uniformly. The Distribution of electrical allows the building to act as a living body and aliments systems such as the acoustic system and the fire prevention system as they are both power-assisted systems, whereas electrical system is a stand-alone system.

What is a lightning protection system? A Lightning Protection System, commonly known as LPS is a specifically designed configuration to secure the protection of the premises and of its contents from damage caused by the intensely high voltage discharges caused by lightning strikes. (Often exceeding a numerical value of 1,000,000,000 Volts Amps). The concept of the Faraday’s cage is being used in this case. The whole system is brought from the peak of the building to its lowest ground through the use of a highly conductive material, which in our case copper tape in being employed. The current is being transferred to the ground, causing the earth effect which negates the current as ground is considered as an insulator. The Lightning protection system accomplishes its unique and system task from impact point which is incoming from the sky to the ground. Several devices are involved in the system in order to create a pathway for the lightning strikes to get negated.

Devices involves in the Lighting Protection System are:     

Air Terminals (Lightning rods) Braided Conductor (Cable) Bonds to Metallic bodies Ground Rods or Ground plates Surge Arrestors

44


Air Terminals (Lightning rods) The Lightning rods technically known as the Air Terminals are set at the peak of the building nearest spot to the sky in order to attract the lightning strikes at impact instance. The lightning rods are made out of copper alloys as copper in its original properties is an excellent and the most available conducting material.

The lightning rods are located at the circled spots on the roof plan. The rods are connected to copper tape bands which link all of the rods as one in order to facilitate the dissipation of the lightning strike high voltage currents.

45


Braided Conductor (Cable) The Braided Conductor has for main function to transfer the current in contact during lightning strike instance from the lightning rod to the earth point. Basically the Braided conductor also called as Copper Tape conductor is installed in a 3D grid configuration in order to connect all the available Lightning rods together and lead them all to the earth points at constant intervals.

As shown by the above picture, the copper tape is being held on place by a non-conductive material, usually rubber, in order to prevent electrocution at any moment that external conductive bodies gets into contact with the device.

46


The brown lines determines the lightning protection circuit set up within the premises. As stated before the Lightning rods are set in a closed circuit manner and are connected to each other through the connection of the braided conductors which at the green spots on the plan, shows the earth locations. The tape is basically a flat and flexible device which facilitates its installation and easy to access any spot.

Bond to Metallic Bodies The Bond to metallic Bodies usually known as being junctions or assisted connections or links are devices that help to connect the copper tapes into a grip form in order to keep the lightning rods into connection. The Metallic Bonds usually happens through the use of PVC trunking junctions or simply PVC cubicles. In order to keep the metallic bonds out of reach and to limit risks of electrocution, the PVC trunking and cubes are involved into the design of the circuit

. The Junction box helps to keep the copper tape isolated as for concern that human contact risks is highly expected within the premises. As to be noted that the lightning protection system not only happens to the exterior of the building but as well as the interior in order to protect the electrical appliances available within.

47


The second type of Junction is the Test Clamp Plate. It is used as a disconnecting joint between the down conductor (which is the copper tape carrying incoming current from lightning strikes) and earthing system. In order to prevent excessive current cancellation during the impact instant, Test clamp plates are installed at mid distance to the lightning rod and the earth spot to partially earth the current. As the process of insulating current happens at constant rate, the test clamps are used in order to earth the current at constant intervals to the point of reaching the earth spot.

Note: The copper tape is being interconnected through the use of square tape clamps at turning points and at drastic change in orientation.

48


Ground Rods or Ground plates The Ground rods are known as being the end of the line of the lightning protection system which can also be commonly called the earthing system. The Ground rods are normally set into the configuration of a ground bed in order to transfer the current to the ground at equal and constant rate. The electrodes of the ground rod system are pilled from 1.0m to 2.0m deep into the ground. (As to be noted that the entity of the length provided is found in the ground.)

The picture below shows an illustration of the ground rod earthing configuration.

49


Surge Arrestors The surge arrestor is a product installed near the end of any conductor (as to mention that in the current situation, the conductor is known as being the lightning rod) which is long enough before the conductor lands on its intended electrical component (as in present case, the electrical component is the copper tape). In this particular case, no surge arrestor is being used as the lightning protection system requires fast and direct contact to the current transportation unit to allow quick earthing process. As in this case, the lightning rods are connected by test clamps which allows direct contact to the copper alloy tape.

The picture shows the connection of the lightning rod to the copper tape.

Operation of Lightning Protection system

The picture illustrates the earthing process in its most simple form: from roof to ground. To sum up the in individual function of the earthing devices into a whole circuit, it can be said that the system begins at sky level and end to ground level.

50


Operation Process: 

Incoming Lightning Strike

Impact instance to Lightning rod

Transition through the surge arrestor

Conduction to the copper tape circuit

Distribution of incoming lightning current to the test clamps at the allocated spots

Earth Process starts at the first contact to the first test clamp

The process repeats at different intervals until the current reaches the ground bed

Conduction to the Ground rods at the ground bed

Earth process is accomplished

The Systems has been divided into 2 categories, the protection system and the domestic usage system. Previously the Lightning Protection system which is considered as the protection system category has been analysed. In this Section of the Electrical report, the domestic electrical systems will be analysed in depth in order to achieve an adequate understanding of Electrical Domestic Services.

The available domestic usage electrical system available within the premises are listed below: 1.

Lighting Layout

2.

Electrical generated acoustic system

3.

Power point system

4.

Electrical generated security system

5.

External infrastructure (TNB)

An overview of Electrical supply through the building

52


53


54


Incoming from TNB, the electricity is transferred to the available terminal room available at the back of the building. Through the terminal room, set up by TNB itself, the room contains electricity distribution control boards and transformers which controls and distributes the incoming electricity through the entity of the premises. As shown in the above floorplans, the electricity distribution through the different categories of devices requiring electricity for function is being identified. It is shown that electricity is required for most of the services available in the building, such as lighting system, alarm system, emergency systems.

55


The transformer is contained within the TNB substation. The role of the transformer is to convert the high voltage current incoming from the TNB main into usable domestic power feed.

56


How does the system function? Once the current received at the TNB substation situated within the premises of the building, the power is being distributed through every floor and is being controlled by distribution boards which by the same time distributes the power provided to their respective appliances. The Electrical Schematic shows the installation layout of the main distribution boards on each floor.

57


Distribution Board The electrical distribution board also known as the breaker panel is a component which divides an electrical power feed into subsidiary circuits, while providing a protective fuse or circuit breaker for each individual circuit, in a common enclosure. However the type of distribution board within building premises varies according to each country’s laws and allocated regulations. As for Malaysia the type of distribution board applied to building size like the KLBC is a single phase 230V distribution board.

The picture shows the internal circuit of a breaker panel.

Lighting Devices Once the power feed distributed by the Distribution Board, the different lighting devices are alimented. Some of the Lighting Devices available within the premises are: 

Emergency Lights

Fluorescent light tube

Down lights

Wall light

One-gang switch

Two-gang switch

Light Control Panel

58


Emergency lights The emergency light system is a lighting system specifically designed to light the building in any case of system breakdown or blackout. The system is being alimented by an emergency system generator designated only for the emergency lighting system. The emergency lights are found at every access points and corridors leading to exits and emergency exits available in the building.

SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS OF POWER FEED DISTRIBUTION BY FLOOR

Ground Floor

59


Observation at Ground Floor: Since the ground floor which is shown as being an opened area, is exposed to direct contact to weather conditions and preventions have to be taken in order for the appliances to not get damaged. As the schematic diagram of the first floor shows it clearly, the ground floor is composed of extra spare sockets which are to be used in case of any terminal breakdown or short circuit.

First Floor

60


Observation at First Floor: It can be observed from the first floor schematic that it specially contains two distribution panels as the floor is divided into two categories of spaces, as per the special arrangement. The floor is divided into the sanctuary part where church services and mass happens which is a big scale space and requires an individual distribution board due to the big number of appliances present within the space. The second distribution board is allocated to the kindergarten classrooms and other facilities present on the first floor which can be grouped together.

On-site Observation and Analysis As per the Electrical System Layout Designed, the premises’ electrical facilities are considered as being constantly stable. It can be observed from the schematic diagrams that the electric circuits as per floor contains spare socket slots which allows immerdiate change of circuit way in order to keep the entity of the system operational. It has also been observed that although individual switch sockets were located at multiple spots and that the employment of 2-way circuits was minimized, a centralized circuit leading to a switch control panel was available. Mostly available in the Sanctuary space, the lighting control panel is located behind the stage and allows operation of the whole space’s lighting devices through one command board. As for the emergency lights, it has been found that they were alimented by an emergency generator specially designated for the operation of this system.

6.0 SEWERAGE, SANITARY AND DRAINAGE SYSTEM 6.1 The Evolution of Sewerage Treatment As societies moved from nomadic cultures to more permanent sites, waste (solid and wastewater) disposal became an important concern. Those concerned issues have been deal with many different solutions and knowledge. As cities developed, other mechanisms were necessary to address waste issues. Until recently, wastewater sanitation concentrated on minimizing health risks, primarily infectious diseases. More recently, scope of wastewater management issues has extended to include long term health risks and environmental concerns.

6.2 Introduction A sanitary sewer is definite as an underground carriage system to transport sewage from houses and commercial buildings to treatment or disposal through pipes. At early period of time, sewers were designed just to carry street overflow away from populated areas and into waterways without further treatment. Through the 19th century, interior sanitation was often drained to combined sewers. However, sewage treatment facilities built for combined sewers become ineffective during precipitation. As populations increased, it emphasis more attention on the environment and threatening sources of fresh water supplies, it was then recognized the need of an appropriate management on the problem of human waste. From the early 1900s, a stable evolution of sewage treatment into nowadays modern sewage treatment plants producing high quality effluent, which can be safely discharged to the environment or reused. Indah Water Konsortium is a company owned by Minister of Finance Incorporated, is Malaysia's national sewerage company which has been entrusted with the task of developing and maintaining a modern and efficient sewerage system. A modern and efficient sewerage system is vital for the country so as to ensure that wastewater is treated before being discharged into the waterways. Furthermore, a well maintained sewerage will help to preserve the country's waste resources, protect public health and provide a cleaner and safer environment. More recent developments in sewage treatment have been to improve the efficiency to treat sewage to meet standards and decrease the land area occupied by treatment works.

Main features of sewerage system are: a. b. c. d.

Collection Carriage Treatment Disposal

A. Collection and Carriage Sewage is collected and transport through a system of pipe lines or sewerage. The system of sewers is called sewerage. Sewage is collected in septic tank where sewerage system is not provided. C. Treatment Sewerage treatment is a process of removing impurities from sewage. It aims to ensure the effluent and sludge is environmentally safe treated and suitable for disposal or reuse. The discharge of sewage to the environment must be capable without transmitting infections or risking aquatic organisms. There are two types of treatment system: a. b.

Septic Treatment System Waste Water Treatment Plant

A. Septic Treatment

Big Bore Drilling. (2011). Introduction to septic. Retrieved on 10 June 2014. from http://bigboredrilling.com/introduction-toseptic/

A septic treatment involves two main parts which is the septic tank and drain field. The septic tank splits the sewage into three components: a.

Sludge (Solid Waste)

b.

Scum (Floatable)

c.

Effluent (Grey Water)

Working of Septic Tank i.

Sewerage enters via the inlet pipe.

ii.

Gravitational force pulls the solids into the base.

iii. Anaerobic biological action happened and formed a layer of scum on the surface. iv. Grey water leaves through the outlet pipes. v.

The effluent flows into a distribution box waiting.

66


Working of Drain Field i.

The final stage of treatment takes place in drain field.

ii.

Effluent is filters out of the pipes, through the gravel layer passes into the soil.

iii. Waste water will be filtered as it passed through the pore spaces in soil. iv. The soil microbes deactivate the infection germs that contained in the remaining effluent. v.

Treated water entered the groundwater.

vi. This process shows the best result when the soil is dry and permeable. B. Waste Water Treatment Plant It undergoes physical, chemical, and biological processes to eliminate contaminants.

Sewage treatment involves four stages: a. Preliminary treatment b. Primary treatment c. Secondary treatment d. Tertiary treatment A. Preliminary Treatment First is to remove large and non-degradable materials. This action in order to prevent damage occurs on the pumps and equipment. Consists of a bar screen, grit chamber and mesh screen. a.

Bar Screen catches large objects into sewer system such as bricks, bottles, wood pieces, etc.

b.

Grit Chamber removes rocks, gravel, broken glass, etc.

c.

Mesh Screen removes diapers, combs, towels, plastic bags, syringes, etc.

B. Primary Treatment This stage is a physical process which is also known as sedimentation stage. Sewage flow is slowed down to allow gravity acts on suspended solids for settling to the bottom. The settled substance is called sludge or bio solids. Sludge is pumped to the sludge digestion tank while effluent is pumped to the trickling filter or aeration tank for secondary treatment.

67


C. Secondary Treatment The previous stage trickles effluent into an aeration tank which is mixed with air. Organic component is eaten by aerobic bacteria. Later on the mixture of uneaten particles and microbes is moved to secondary clarifier. Those microbes & organic components settle down in the aid of gravity. Part of them are directed back to digest more sewage while the rest is sent to sludge digestion tank. The solid free effluent from the clarifier is further sent for Tertiary treatment.

Di. Tertiary Effluent Treatment It is a chemical process while nitrogen, phosphorus, fine suspended particles and microbes are removed and disinfectants are added to destroy micro-organisms. Common disinfectants used are ozone, chlorine & ultra-violet rays. Thus effluent is then discharged to the water body.

Dii. Tertiary Sludge Treatment The sludge is transported to digestion tank. Bacteria will break down those organic substances anaerobically. Sludge with effluent obtained after digestion is further kept for drying. Some portion of the sludge effluent is disposed while rest is converted to methane gas to power the treatment processes.

Features of Sewerage System D. Sewage Disposal Sewerage disposal is a process of discharging the sewage.

Purpose of Sewage disposal a.

To conserve water resources.

b.

To prevent impurity of drinking supplies and other water supplies for daily uses.

c.

To encourage healthier living.

Various ways of disposing sewage are: a. Dumping of treated effluent into underground. b. Incineration: Dumping of effluent into seas.

Two groups of sanitary appliances: a.

Waste appliances

For example: bidet wash basin sink shower

b.

Soil appliances

For example: water closet urinal

All sanitary appliances are made of non-absorbent, non-corroding, long lasting, smooth and easily cleaned material For example, ceramic ware, vitreous enameled cast iron, vitreous enameled pressed steel, stainless steel or plastics (thermosetting and thermoplastic).

78


Plumbing systems One pipe system In one pipe system, all soil and waste water discharge into one common pipe and all subdivision ventilating pipes go into one main ventilating pipe. This system largely replaces the two pipe system as it is useful in multi stories developments and more economical than the two pipes system.

Two pipe system The waste stack received the discharge its components and carry them to the ground level. It was delivered above the water seal in a trapped gully connected to the drainage system. While the soil stack receives the discharge from soil appliances and transported directly to the underground drainage system. The waste and soil water did not combine until they reached the below ground drainage system.

7.0 WATER SUPPLY 7.1 Introduction to Water Distribution System Incoming from SYABAS main duct, the water is being transferred to the KLBC piping network. The water gets through the meter pipe then into the main distribution water tank situated next to the water processing unit located within the premises of the Building. As to be said, the distribution system of the building can be divided into 2 categories, as to be said: 

Rainwater Harvesting System

Main Duct Water Distribution incoming from SYABAS

Aforesaid, both of the systems follows the same processing process before attaining the allocated terminals as to be said taps and other water outlets. The process goes by: 

Incoming Water

Water filtration

Water Purification

Water is cycled back to premises mechanical pump

Water is distributed to the entity of the premises

Outgoing distribution through outlets

7.2 Rainwater Harvesting System The rainwater harvesting system within the premises denominates the approach of sustainable design as per sign that a purification system of high efficiency has been installed within the premises. The rainwater harvesting system mainly concerns the irrigation of plants within the garden and courtyard perimeter and the toilet flushing system. As to be said, the system has been designed in such a way that energy and resource consumption is reduced through the entity of the distribution and consumption process.

82


The Harvesting Process: 

Incoming Water

In the nominated case, the incoming water is considered as being received from the rain. The rainwater gets collected through the help of floor traps which leads to water harvesting drains. The incoming water being in a raw and non-purified state, is first of all collected down a reinforced concrete water tank.



Purification Process

The purification process starts at the eve of the water harvesting tank. The water is being pumped into the purification unit through the assist of an electrical generated water pump. Once into the system, the water is diverted to the filtration unit, where the purification process begins. Once through the filtration unit, comes the last stage of the purification process, the water is lastly drove to the electrical generated water purifies which is a 24/7 system available in order to allow water recycling.



Water Distribution

Once the water processed through the in-built purification system of the premises, the water is finally usable for domestic purposes. The water accomplishes the requirements of Garden irrigation Task and Toilet Flushing Task. The water can also be used for any other domestic usage as well.

The purified water is even distributed to the entity of all the water outlets available within the premises.

83


7.3 Incoming water from SYABAS

The main water supply being provided by SYABAS, is an already processed water from main station to distribution points.

How does the distribution work within the premises?

From SYABAS, the water is incoming through the main duct, which is then segmented into water portions once in contact to the water piping grid system. The Water first goes through the primary water tank which distributes relays the water back and forth to the mechanical water pump located in the purification chamber. The water is then distributed from ground to roof top. Available water distribution devices: 

Water Processing Control Panel

Water Filtration Unit

Water Purifying Unit

Mechanical Water Pump

Incoming Water Tank

Incoming Water Meter

Fire Fighting Water System

RC rainwater harvesting tank

Water Metering Device

84


1.

Water Processing Control Panel

The water processing Control panel takes control of the entity of the purification process. The devices are being controlled through the connection of the Control Panel. The Purification system, Mechanical Assistance System and filtration system are being connected to it.

2.

Water Filtration Unit

The water filtration unit is considered as being the first station in the purification journey of the incoming water. Once out of the receiving tank to the filtration unit, the water is distributed through mechanical assistance to the entity of the infrastructure.

85


3.

Water Purifying Unit

The water purifying unit is a special unit designed to purify the incoming water from the filtration unit, as the water received into the device is mostly the water harvested from the rainwater harvesting system. The incoming water, even being filtered still is potent of bacterial substances, in that case the purifying device is set up in order to ensure the secure consummation of the water throughout the premises. As to not forget to say that the system is composed of 2 of the unit, one for main usage and the other in any case of current system breakdown.

4.

Mechanical Water Pump

According to the size of the building, mechanical assistance shall be provided to the water distribution throughout the entity of the building. In this case 2 sets of mechanical water pumping system has been setup in the premises, one for current usage and the other in case of system breakdown. The Mechanical Water Pump receives and distributes back and forth the water to the allocated facilities within the site perimeter and infrastructure.

86


5.

Incoming water Tank

Basically the system has been designed in such a way that the incoming water from SYABAS main will be converged back to a single point which is the incoming water tank. This Water Tank has for specific function to only receive the incoming water and distributes it back to the pumping system. The Water Tank, as the name says, stores water and creates a delay to allow the purification and distribution system to function at constant rate.

6.

Fire Fighting Water Tank

The Fire Fighting Water Tank is located on the Roof Top of the building. The huge cubicle device has for sole purpose to store water in case of any unfortunate incident. The device also forms part of the emergency Fire Fighting System designed for the Building. The Water recipient aliments the sprinklers and the hose reels available on every floor of the building. The Water Tank can be manually or remotely be opened in order to activate the firefighting prevention system.

7.

RC Rainwater Harvesting Tank

The RC Rainwater Harvesting Tank is a water recipient designed through the underground of the building and is linked to a series of drain pipes which collects the incoming rain water.

87


8.

Water Meter

The Water meter is installed at the main entrance of the building’s premises and is utterly connected to the SYABAS main as its main purpose is to measure and record the usage amount of incoming water.

88


7.4 Overall System Operation Rainwater Harvesting System Using excess rainwater when water supply becomes limited is the practice of harvesting rainwater. It simultaneously provides water storage as well as distribution of water for usage purposes. The water undergoes various filtering and processing systems.

Collection of water: The process commences by the collection of rainwater from the catchment area – the roof. Water enters the conveyance system (gutters and downspouts) that surrounds the roof and filtered several times then stored in a large containers located on the ground.

First-flushing: The first-flush device is a valve ensures that runoff from the first spell of rain does not enter the containers because it contains the most pollutants; this is the first filtering process in the rainwater harvesting system.

Filtering: The rainwater filter systems are chambers consist of fibre, coarse and gravel layers to filter pollutants from the rainwater before it enters the water tanks or recharge structures.

Water Piping System The water piping system is considered as the interconnection devices for the water distribution within the building’s water outlets and other facilities.

On-Site Observation and Analysis of current system state at current situation At current situation, summing back into an overview of the water distribution system, it can be deduced that the system is working at full efficiency and that no redundant design has been implied to the premises. Emergency spare devices in cases of breakdown situations or system blackout, are available to relay the damaged system.

92


7.6 Uniform Building By-Laws (ACT 133)  Section 247 Water storage  Water storage capacity and water flow rate for fire fighting systems and installations shall be provided in accordance with scale and set out in the Tenth Schedule to there By-laws. 

Main water storage tanks within the building, other than for hose reel systems, shall be located at ground, first to second basement levels, with fire brigade pumping inlet connections accessible to fire appliances.

Storage tanks for automatic sprinkler installations where full capacity is provided without need for replenishment shall be exempted from the restrictions in their location.

 Section 123 Pipes and service duct.  Where ducts or enclosures are provided in any building to accommodate pipes, cables or conduits the dimensions of such ducts or enclosures shall be (a) adequate for the accommodation of the pipes, cables or conduits and for crossings of branches and mains together with supports and fixing; and (b) Sufficiently large to permit access to cleaning eyes, stop cocks and other controls there to enable repairs, extensions and modifications to be made to each or all of the services accommodated. 

The access openings to ducts or enclosures shall be long enough and suitably places to enable lengths of pipe to be installed and removed.

8.0 Drainage Drainage can be either natural or artificial. Many areas have some natural drainage; this means that excess water flows from the or to lakes and rivers. Natural drainage, however, is often inadequate and artificial or man-made drainage is required. There are two types of artificial drainage: surface drainage and subsurface drainage.

Types of Drainage (i)

Surface Drainage

(ii)

Subsurface Drainage

Figure: Indication of perimeter drain and catch pit. 94


Surface drainage is the removal of excess water from the surface of the land. This is normally accomplished by shallow ditches, also called open drains. The shallow ditches discharge into larger and deeper collector drains. In order to facilitate the flow of excess water toward the drains, the field is given an artificial slope by means of land grading . Surface drainage systems are usually applied in relatively flat lands that have soils with a low or medium infiltration capacity or in lands with high-intensity rainfalls that exceed the normal infiltration capacity, so that frequent waterlogging occurs on the soil surface.

Surface drainage - channel by single ditches

95


Catchpits A manhole on a drainage system with a sump; i.e. the bottom of it is lower than the pipes which go in and out of it. This allows sediment in the water to settle out, helping to keep the pipes clear. Catchpit sumps are emptied before they fill up so that they continue to be effective.

Catch pit with grill- lead water flow towards the drainage gratings at the edges of the road.

96


Subsurface drainage is the removal of water from the rootzone. It is accomplished by deep open drains or buried pipe drains. Subsurface drainage system is installed in soils with a low infiltration capacity, where a surface drainage problem may improve the soil structure and the infiltration capacity so greatly that a surface drainage system is no longer required. On the other hand, it can also happen that a surface drainage system diminishes the recharge of the groundwater to such an extent that the subsurface drainage problem is considerably reduced or even eliminated. i. Deep open drains with grills The excess water from the root zone flows into the open drains The disadvantage of this type of subsurface drainage is that it makes the use of machinery difficult.

Road grills - Drainage gratings at the edges of the road.

97


CASE STUDY The site of the building seems to offer easier solutions than some areas because is in a higher ground, the stormwater drainage in the street have existing single drains with double drains and catchpits in the low section the opposite housing area. And larger pipes connecting to the gully, to cope with the maximum expected water flow.

Situated on a sloped site. Which has an advantage- water will flows to the stable fill areas.( towards the street.)
