Pivoting Radial Connection My concept behind the design is to include the old world architecture that sentul has through the usage of arches and implementing them into the connection in bringing up the importance of a healthy lifestyle by educating the residents of sentul with this building
This is to evoke a sense of nostalgia within them so that they would appreciate the rustic architecture of sentul that is slowing fading away due to current developments
Design Approach The pivoting action of sentul depot longitudinal form to embrace the Form

Materiality To generate the old world charm of sentul depot and klpac, which was also the main building material
bricks Weathered steel that gives off a reddish brown hue which goes well with the tone of bricks
corten
Makes up the foundation, the floor slabs and a small part of the walls
concrete As an accent material that contrasts between the rich reddish brown hue of bricks and corten steel

Natural Lighting
Artificial Lighting Natural lighting is the usage of daylighting in setting the mood and illumination of a particular space, as it takes advantage of the light emitted from the sun which reduces energy consumption
Artificial lighting as the name suggests is the illumination of
Buildings with natural lighting
spaces with lighting fixtures that
implemented in them usually
require electricity
have strategically place openings to capture sunlight
It is deemed required during

sunlight is absent
Implementation on Design My building places quite a heavy emphasis on the usage of natural
The morning sun illuminates the east elevation of
light through the arch facade of the main building, skylights and
my building, and the arch facade provides a

window to allow natural light to flood the building space making it feel light and airy while omitting the dependence of artificial lighting

Ventilation Study Cross Ventilation
Artificial Ventilation Cross ventilation is considered as a natural method of cooling spaces within a building, as it only relies on wind to force cool air into the building while expelling the hot air at the same time
Buildings that implement cross ventilation are generally design to have big openings and multiple voids to emphasize the effect of

A water supply system is considered to be one of the most important infrastructures for a country to advance and develop into a first world country
Water Supply System
Direct Water Supply
Indirect Water Supply
Direct water supply system is when
Indirect water supply system is
the pipeline in a building is
much more complex than its direct
directly connected to the mains
counterpart, which has a water
and each of the faucets and
cistern located around the roof
water outlets are dependent on
level of a building
the pressure from the rising mains This is to ensure even water Less pipework is needed in this
pressure throughout the building
configuration compared to its
with the help of gravity, however
indirect counterpart, however,
more pipework is to be laid as
there will be no supply of water at
each water outlet needs to be
all during a water shortage
connected to the cistern
Implementation on Design Due to my building being a library, co-working space as well as a courtyard garden with basic water outlets such as toilets and sinks, direct water supply is much preferable
The ground floor plan shows the pipework of water supply from the mains along the road, then it passes through a water meter located around the parking area before going to their respective outlets which are the toilets and sinks
water supply system on ground floor plan
With all of the water outlets on the ground floor connected to the mains, the water supply pipework is then laid vertically to connect those that are on the first floor
Due to the toilets and sinks being in almost the same position on both floor plans, it is quite easy to connect them

A sewerage system is also an important
Sewerage System
infrastructure when it comes to disposing and the treatment of wastewater from a huge number of sources
There are two types of sewerage
Sewerage System
The standard sewerage system is connected with a series of
Storm Sewer System
name suggests collects rainwater from drain inlets and disposes
of wastewater from various
them into rivers. Unlike normal
plant for processing and the
system and the storm sewer system
The storm sewer system as its
pipework to allow the collection
fixtures and inlets to a treatment
systems mainly the normal sewerage
sewerage, they do not require any treatment
filtration of wastewater into clean usable water
Implementation on Design Since my building only has minimal water outlets, the ones being wash closets and sinks, a fairly simple sewerage system is required with the inclusion of a septic tank before connecting to the sewer mains along the road
The connection of the sewerage system is pretty much straight forward while being concerned about its placement so that it has a 3m gap between the water supply line
The sewerage system connects all of the toilets and sinks on the ground floor in a straight forward way
sewerage system on ground floor plan
Also, similar to the water supply system, the toilets and sinks are almost at similar locations on the ground floor and the first floor, therefore the pipework for the sewerage system is petty much straight forwards as well
It is just that the sewerage downpipes are located in a different location, away from the water supply downpipes
