The upper floor provides a more intimate work area and a sitting area.

The containers were painted dark charcoal to maintain continuity with the original house and to recede in the shadows of a dense wooded site.

The total area of the studio is 840 sf.

3.1 SUCCESS CRITERIA Project success criteria is a design that can be exceeded client’s expectations which can be constructed within six months and within the budget not exceed the preliminary cost agreed with client.

3.1.1 Project Management Constraints

TIME The project is to be completed within six months to avoid higher exposure and risk. Therefore, in ensuring successful project delivery, the following conditions are to be met during the construction phase: 1. Transportation of materials and site monitoring is strictly adhered.

2. Construction workers are supervised by our company assigned contractors with our company architect and engineer to ensure a consistent workflow, as well as ensuring their wellbeing and fair wages.

3. Construction and installations of building components are to be completed as scheduled in Gantt Chart.

COST The success criteria of the project must be attained at the client’s budget that benefit both the stakeholder and the client.

The project manager is tasked with meeting the expectations of the project stakeholders. The challenge is to identify their interests and define clear objectives and boundaries, based on the three core dimensions of scope, costs and time.

1. Clear articulations of plan by the company consultants for attaining lowest cost with long term usable materials for building structure and furniture including reusing and salvaging materials.

2. The completed project should be attained locally and sustainable as per client’s requirement.

3. The cost must be achieved with client’s satisfaction that beneficial in long term.

3.5 MAINTENANCE PROPOSAL

Mechanical & Electrical

Programme

As per above, maintenance crew is to take note on the building manual and ensure comprehensive strategic use of facilities. In-house technicians are also encouraged to be present on site for frequent checking and monitoring.

Staffs are encouraged to proactively utilize the newly built container studios with care. Whereas the management are encouraged to carry out some marketing strategies to promote the many perks of using the container studios.

Interior Architecture

Architecture Containers may come cheap in bulk, but maintenance cost may not be justified if it is not properly treated during installation. All opening should be thoroughly checked for any uneven gap to prevent leakage in time.

Containers should also be treated with anticorrosion paint to prevent the containers from rusting. However, it is still advised to re-furbish the exterior panels of the containers after every 5–10years.

Interior of container are encouraged to be replaced or refurbished with new interior panels in every 5–10 years along with the exterior wall façade. This is to prevent and unwanted hidden corrosion or the toxic emission from the container flooring.

Landscape Architecture Management are highly advised to assign gardener or vegetation experts to carefully maintain the ample greeneries proposed in the container studio.

3.6 PROJECT VIABILITY 3.6.1 Programme Viability

3.6.3 Building Operating Lifespan

Taylor’s University serves as one of Malaysia’s top architecture schools and the number of students enrolling in each new semester only increases. It would make perfect sense for Taylor’s to further expand its accommodation capacity.

The current existing Block E (which is shared by student of many schools) can accommodate an approximate of 800+ students at a time. Thus by proposing the new container studios, it is capable of expanding it with an additional 300+student accommodation. Existing student, especially the semester 3 and semester 4 students, are writing in feedback and it seems totally with our expected response which is lack of dedicated studios to be utilized.

By following the proposed maintenance method and excluding any unforeseen natural disaster, the Container Studio is capable to last for 50 years at very least.

With an operating studio for just 5years, the capital invested into building the Container Studio has already met its break-even point, which is only 10% of the Container Studio’s lifespan.

Time taken to break-even: 10% of Container’s lifespan

Existing Block: 800+ Students

Proposed Container Studios: 300+ Students

3.6.2 Estimated Capital vs Profit Margin With the preliminary cost being estimated and calculated by Architect Small Eyes’s in-house quantity surveyor, it is said to be approximately RM3mil. Being compared to a permanent block extension, it would have costed well over RM10mil easily. Moreover, the temporary studio containers do not require a permanent land building contract thus further reduces the capital cost. As for profit margin wise, profit is estimated RM 900,000 annually based on a predicted increase in number of student enrolment. Putting things into perspective, the annual profit margin is 22% of the total estimated construction cost.

3.6.4 GBI Award Winning Potential With the generous usage of green material that has low embodied energy and generally recyclable. The container studio brightens up the chance of Taylor’s receiving a GBI Gold Award for the Non-residential New Construction category.

3.6.5 Problem Solving Existing Issue With the proposal of a temporary container studio being situated in between the rear end of block D and block E, it has helped solved a few existing issues.

The proposed container studio actually work as a wind buffer to turn the wind tunnel effect in to a nice breeze through the container walkway into the existing level 2 podium. Besides, it also reduces the need of cleaner labour to clear off water puddles on existing level 2 and level 1 walkways after each heavy rain.

Capital/ Budget: approx. RM3mil

Annual Profit Margin: Approx. 22%

4.1 CONCEPTUAL DESIGN

4.1.3 Conceptual Ideas Mood Board

4.1.1 Design Statement The container studio is integrated as an education academic building extension for the School of Architecture, Building & Design (SABD) in Taylor’s University.

Recycled container is the chosen as the main building material for this project as it is not only durable and easy to manipulate but cost effective as well. In order to achieve a holistic design, a congregation of engineers and architects are essential.

The Container Studio building responds with its respective users through its various spaces; furniture layout, material used, and landscape spaces.

Key images and words are shown to evoke the proposed concept, such as architecture design mood, landscape mood and colour scheme.

The overall design concept is to integrate recycled shipping containers with the existing building and not over shine it, to provide a spacious, bright and bold learning space. The idea is to provoke the creativity of architecture students, while giving a strong architecture identity to the container studio.

A large learning indoors and outdoors studio space is providing for all the architectural needs. All the spaces are design to be appearred as a natural extension from the two neighboring blocks with close proximity to nature.

4.2 SCHEMATIC DESIGN 4.2.1 Container Properties This container studio uses 10ft,20ft & 40ft,three different sizes of container as building material. Due to the use of containers as the main construction methodology, it is uncomfortable to just use one due to the limited height with a drop ceiling for services, therefore it is logically to double the volume by using a double stack per floor. The final design follows a basic layout which consists of 15 containers (7x40ft, 3x20ft, 5x10ft) but doubled to achieve the appropriate height.

4.2.2 Design Strategy

4.2.3 Site analysis The current site conditions with a split leveled green-scape and lower ground basement is much like a doubled edged sword in design, as it creates both a problem and opportunity. The main pedestrian circulation occurs at ground level where the existing paths allow people from Block D and Block E to the rear main road. A dual direction vehicular occurs on the open side of the site, which is unfavorable in the sense of acoustics and visuals but also provides the advantage of being viewed as node points. Certain services such as toilets and vending machines are unnecessary due them already being provided from the adjacent buildings. Two fire escape provide the access points to the proposed building as a given which is actually a midway staircase landing.

4.2.4 Faรงade Studies Doors and window In order to response the sides facing the existing facades, identical but bottom hinged windows with a similar arrangement style were used to mimic and pay homage to its neighbor. Double swing doors welcome occupants to the building, single door for the privacy and a four piece sliding door to completely open up the outdoor space.

4.0 Architectural

4.2.5 Design process The initial concept was to have a series of containers surrounding a central garden with trees but the single container layout was too cramped to be practical for its application. In order to have adequate floor area and to be structurally sound, the container corner points needed to be connected, hence the green area is pushed towards the front in a U-shaped form with a wide main area in the rear. The final form are containers arranged to appear as if sliding to exploit the advantages of the green-scape by first creating a cave-like dent in the front facade to increase exposure out and into the spaces. The rear is mainly viewed from the connecting bridges but faces directly to a bare wall, therefore the discussion room, asporadically used space, is placed there. In doing so, a large open studio is created in the center necessary to satisfy the brief while outdoor spaces are connected to the existing greenery.

5.1 CONTAINER PROPERTIES 5.1.1 Container Structure Shipping containers as structural support

ADVANTAGES: - Designed to carry heavy loads - Could be stacked in high columns, up to 12 high - Designed to resist harsh environment - Strong 4 corner to support stack of other containers - A limit of 300kg is recommended for the roof part

Typical container type that is used: 10 ft, 20 ft and 40 ft containers. All of them have the same height of 2.4m high.

DEAD LOAD The size and the mass: The standard 40’ weight 3,655 kg The standard 20’ weight 2,200 kg The standard 10’ weight 1,300 kg

CALCULATION OF DEAD LOAD FIRST, SECOND, THIRD AND FOURTH FLOOR 28 of 40’ shipping containers + 6 of 20’ shipping containers + 10 of 10’ shipping containers = (28 x 3655 kg) + (6 x 2200 kg) + (10 x 1300 kg) = 102,340 + 13,200 + 13,000 =128540 kg TOTAL DEAD LOAD =1285400 N

Temporary formwork during curing

Raft foundations tend to be cheaper and quicker to use than traditional footings.

Advantages: The foundation and floor slab is combined which then, -saves time and materials -Less excavation is required -ideal for poor ground condition -Reduces differential settlement Raft Foundations are built is this following steps: 1) The soil removed down to correct depth 2) The foundation bed is then compacted by ramming 3) Lay reinforcement on spacers over the foundation bed 4) Pour the concrete over the reinforcement *The foundation may stiffened by ribs or beams built in during construction which will add extra strength and rigidity.

Completed raft foundation

5.4 CONTAINER CONNECTION AND JOINT 5.4.1 Container to Container Container architecture is still a new type of architecture in Malaysia. Its construction method is slightly different from the traditional building construction.

Few of the related construction methods are introduced in the following content.

Structure Detail CONTAINER TO CONTAINER A twistlock and corner casting together form a standardized rotating connector for securing shipping containers. The primary uses are for locking a container into place.

5.0 Civil + Structural Eng.

1. Position twist lock in ‘open’ position by mobbing handle to the right.

Top Left (Top Right is mirror inverted)

2. Insert Twist lock into top corner casting of shipping container with flat twist clamp at bottom.

Bottom Left (Bottom Right is mirror inverted)

DOUBLE END TWIST LOCK Weldable shipping container twist locks are approximately 175mm x 140mm x 135mm in size.

They are designed to connect a shipping container to another structure either by welding the shipping container twist lock directly to the new structure or by installing slipper shoes to allow the twist lock to be mechanically connected to the new structure.

3. Insert twist locks in all four corners of shipping container prior to installing second shipping container.

4. Install second shipping container on top of first shipping container.

5. Close all twist locks by pushing handles to left.

5.0 Civil + Structural Eng.

CONTAINER BRIDGE CLAMP Bridge clamps are engineered to connect shipping containers together horizontally.

The diagram below will clearly show the position of each connector:

Shipping container bridge are used in combination with shipping container twist locks to create a container wall, locked together both vertically and horizontally. The bridge clamps and twist locks make use of the container corner casting connecting shipping containers. Twist locks utilise the top and bottom holes of the corner casting, the bridge clamp utilises the side holes.

5.4.2 Container to Steel Structure Type of Column and Beam BEAM – UNIVERSAL BEAM (203mm x 133mm x 206.8mm) without finishes COLUMN – UNIVERSAL COLUMN (203mm x 133mm x 206.8mm) without finishes

5.0 Civil + Structural Eng.

The shipping container bottom corner blocks are welded to steel plates imbedded in the concrete slab to secure the house to the foundation. All corner blocks are welded to each other to secure the containers to themselves in the image below.

The connection between column and beam are using bolted connection. This construction method is easy to reuse and dismantle.

TYPE OF COLUMN AND BEAM (BASEMENT) The connection between container and steel structure are using bolted connection and welding method. Applying both connection method are to ensure the stability.

Typical prefabricated module and placing it on regular centres, the length of the building determined and limited only by the number of modules. It have a large span upto 29000m allowing the space clear, requires no column.

5.0 Civil + Structural Eng.

It is an extension of the beam-and-column solution which provides an economic means to increase the span (above 15m spans).

Detailed drawing of steel truss to RC foundation

Detailed drawing of steel frame truss

The trusses have been fabricated from round HSS members. The chords are of a larger diameter than the web members. This results in easier geometries when it comes to the all welded connections. It also reflects the additional strength requirements of the outer members.

Looking closely it is revealed that the end elevation setback has been created from a pair of these triangular trusses. They are joined with cross bracing members, bolted in place on site.

5.0 Civil + Structural Eng.

A closer view of the connection between the horizontal and vertical truss elements.

Here you can see that a seat has been created to allow for an easy connection between the members. The seat is quite discreet and permits for alignment and structural security while the final physical attachment is being performed.

This view also shows the variation in the size of the round members as they merge at a welded joint.

Welding would have been chosen here to achieve both structural rigidity and uncluttered lines that would have resulted from bolting. The welding is all able to be carried out in the shop for quality control.

A view of the bracing members that join the triangular truss sections. Simple bolted lapped connections are used to create the attachment. Plates have been welded to the vertical round chord members of the truss. The round bracing members have had their ends flattened to permit easy bolting

A close view of the interior connection between the truss members. Here you can see how the stub column with plate uses a bolted connection to attach the horizontal and vertical truss members. The welding lines are also visible. Even for this type of highly exposed structure, if the welding is done well, there is no need to grind the connection. This saves both time and money.

6.2 MECHANICAL VENTILATION 6.2.1 Cassette type Air-conditioner The usage of indoor unit with energy efficient ratio (EER) reading of 4.47 is much more cost effective as the ratio goes higher. The usage of ceiling mounted indoor unit (cassette AC) is able to cool large area in container studio where other types of AC don’t reach out. The cost of mechanical ventilation will be lower as only few units of AC are needed to provide comfort. It is best at saving space, and also silent operation therefore providing a comfortable working environment for the architecture students.

Model: Daikin Air conditioning Multi 4MXS68F Heat Pump Inverter 4 x FFQ35C Cassette (3.5 kW / 12000 Btu) The inverter outdoor units are suitable for 4 connected indoor units, each indoor unit is connected directly by a pair of small diameter refrigerant pipe and condensate pipe to the outdoor unit.

By using the multi head split system outdoor units, it provides greater efficiency and flexibility to designs. The use of multi head split system are much more convenient and economical and is more space saving.

6.3.3 Innovative water technology Rainwater Harvesting is the practice of capturing, infiltrating or utilizing rainfall from roofs, constructed catchment surfaces, and driveways, sidewalks, parking lots and streets. Implementing rainwater harvesting is beneficial because it reduces demand on existing water supply, and reduces run-off, erosion, and contamination of surface water.

Rainwater Harvesting System is an effective water conservation strategy in urban and rural areas around the globe, decreasing unnecessary use of heavily treated drinking water for fire-fighting purpose, landscaping, toilet flushing, and laundry washing. With proper filtration, rainwater can also serve for potable water uses.

A rainwater harvesting system can range in size and complexity. All systems have basics components, which include a catchment surface, conveyance system, storage, and distribution.

6.4 FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEM

6.4.1 Active fire protection system Active fire protection is the process of protecting a building or structure from fire with methods that use the action of moving parts. These systems can be automatic, or operated manually, but they require some sort of action in order to work. A couple of examples of active fire protection would be building sprinkler systems and fire alarm systems. These systems are an extremely important part of protecting property and the lives of the people within. An important factor that active fire protection systems share is that they involve action of some kind.
