SITE : COCHRANE MRT STATION PARK

LOCATION : JALAN SHELLEY, MALURI, KUALA LUMPUR BUILT : 17 JULY 2017 OWNED BY : MRT CORPORATION

NEARBY BUILDINGS : COCHRANE MRT STATION MYTOWN SHOPPING CENTRE IKEA CHERAS SUNWAY VISIO TOWER

CONSIDERATION APPLICATION OF STRUCTURE ABLE TO WITHSTAND LOADS FROM THE ROOF (ROOFTOP GARDEN) REQUIRES A SHORTER CONSTRUCTION TIME AND LOW CONSTRUCTION COST ( EASY AFFORD BY CLIENT ) HIGH DURABILITY TO WITHSTAND THE NECESSARY TRAFFIC ( REDUCE EXTENSIVE MAINTENANCE )

CONSIDERATION OF FUNCTION ABLE TO CONVERT INTO A PLANTING SPACE ( TERRACE GARDEN/ROOFTOP GARDEN/COURTYARD GARDEN ) EASY TO MAINTAIN AND HAVE A LONG LIFE SPAN ( REQUIRES LOW MAINTENANCE )

CONSIDERATION OF ENVIRONMENT REQUIREMENT FLEXIBLE ENOUGH TO WITHSTAND WIND AND WEATHER ( MONSOON SEASON IN MALAYSIA ) ABLE TO MODERATE THE INTERIOR TEMPERATURE DURING THE DAYTIME ( NO SHADING SURROUNDED THE SITE ) PROVIDE MORE PRIVACY AND BETTER SOUND INSULATION ( TRAFFIC NOISE FROM SOUTH DIRECTION )

2.1 STRUCTURE PRECEDENT STUDY CONCRETE VILLA COMANO BUILT: 2018 LOCATION: COMANO, SWITZERLAND ARCHITECT: DF_DC BUILDING TYPE: HOUSE

REINFORCED CONCRETE COLUMN AND BEAM ( FRAME STRUCTURE ) THE REINFORCED CONCRETE FRAME IS A SUPERSTRUCTURE MADE UP OF HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL COMPONENTS, SUCH AS COLUMNS AND BEAMS. THE ENTIRE STRUCTURE, INCLUDING THE BEAMS AND COLUMNS, IS MONOLITHIC, MEANING THE ENTIRE STRUCTURE IS CAST IN A SINGLE OPERATION. THE VERTICAL ELEMENTS, OR COLUMNS, OF THIS STRUCTURE, SUPPORT THE WHOLE LOAD OF THE BUILDING. IF A BEAM OR SLAB IN THIS CONSTRUCTION IS DAMAGED, IT WILL ONLY EFFECT ONE LEVEL; HOWEVER, IF COLUMNS ARE DAMAGED, IT WILL AFFECT THE ENTIRE STRUCTURE. THE ENTIRE STRUCTURE IS REINFORCED WITH STEEL SINCE STEEL CANNOT CARRY THE ENTIRE TENSILE LOAD OF THE STRUCTURE, AND THE COMPRESSIVE STRESS IS SHARED BY BOTH CONCRETE AND REINFORCEMENT.

REASON OF CHOICE IT IS ONE OF THE SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS USE IN A STRUCTURE OF A BUILDING. BESIDES, IT IS EASY TO OBTAIN AND MAINTAIN AS IT IS COMMONLY USE AS A STRUCTURE OF A BUILDING IN MALAYSIA.

CONSTRUCTION METHOD THE FORMWORK IS PREPARED WHICH ENSURES THE CONCRETE IS THE PERFECT SIZE AND SHAPE. THE REINFORCEMENT IS THEN FIX INTO THE FORMWORK. THE CONCRETE IS POURED INTO THE FORMWORK. CURING IS NEEDED FOR THE CONCRETE TO GET ITS ACTUAL STRENGTH.

ADVANTAGES GOOD COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH (WITHSTAND EXCESSIVE PRESSURE) GOOD QUALITY OF TENSILE STRESS (PRESENCE OF REINFORCEMENT) GOOD WEATHER AND FIRE RESISTANCE (SUITABLE & COMMON USED IN MALAYSIA) STABLE ARRANGEMENT OR SYSTEM FLEXIBLE TO CREATE ANY SHAPE WITH THE RIGHT MOULDING

DISADVANTAGES EXPENSIVE COMPARE TO OTHER MATERIALS LONGER CONSTRUCTION TIME (WAIT FOR THE CONCRETE TO DRY AND COMPLETELY BECOME SOLID THAN ONLY MOVE TO THE NEXT FLOOR) LOW COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH COMPARED TO STEEL MIXING, CASTING, AND CURING IS REQUIRED (MIGHT AFFECT THE FINAL STRENGTH OF THE CONCRETE)

2.2 FLOORING SYSTEM PRECEDENT STUDY HASS HOUSE BUILT: 2019 LOCATION: LIVINGSTON MANOR, UNITED STATES ARCHITECT: FEUERSTEIN QUAGLIARA BUILDING TYPE: HOUSE

REINFORCED CONCRETE FLOOR (POLISHED) REINFORCED CONCRETE HAS A HIGH COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH BY EMBEDDING THE STEEL BARS IN THE FLOOR BEFORE THE CONCRETE IS POURED OVER IT AND CURED. IT HELPS CONCRETE FLOORS RESIST HIGH PRESSURE, HIGH TRAFFIC, AND A LOT OF WEAR AND TEAR OVER TIME. A REINFORCED CONCRETE FLOOR IS POLISHED BY DENSIFYING AND SEALING THE SURFACE TO TIGHTENS A POROUS CONCRETE FLOOR, MAKING IT DENSE ENOUGH TO REJECT WATER, OIL, AND OTHER IMPURITIES AND KEEP THEM FROM ENTERING THE SURFACE. AT THE SAME TIME CREATES AN AESTHETIC APPEARANCETO THE ENTIRE HOUSE.

REASON OF CHOICE A REINFORCED CONCRETE FLOORING SYSTEM HAS A RAW APPEARANCE AS IT CAN BE USED WITHOUT INSTALLING ANY TILES OR TIMBER FINISHING WHICH REDUCES THE CONSTRUCTION COST. BESIDES, THE POLISHED REINFORCED CONCRETE FLOOR HELPS TO RETAIN HEAT DURING THE DAYTIME AS THERE IS PENETRATION OF DIRECT SUNLIGHT FROM THE COURTYARD GARDEN WHICH WILL INCREASE THE INTERIOR TEMPERATURE OF THE DWELLING. BESIDES, THE POLISHED SURFACE HELPS TO IMPROVE THE REFLECTIVITY AND AMBIENT LIGHTING IN THE DWELLING WHICH CAN REDUCE THE USAGE OF ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING.

CONSTRUCTION METHOD FORMWORK IS PREPARED AS THE FRAME OF THE CONCRETE SLAB. THE SITE IS CUT CUT TO NEAR LEVEL WITH EXCAVATION MACHINERY. SLAB BEDDING IS PREPARED BY USING ROAD BASE OR CRUSHER DUST. SERVICE PIPES ARE INSTALLED AND REINFORCEMENT IS INSTALLED TO IMPROVE THE TENSILE STRENGTH. THE PRE-MIXED CONCRETE IS POURED, COMPACTED AND FINALLY POLISHED.

ADVANTAGES HIGH COMPRESSIVE & TENSILE STRENGTH (WITHSTAND EXCESSIVE PRESSURE) ONE OF THE MOST BUDGETFRIENDLY FLOORING OPTIONS SHORTER CONSTRUCTION TIME (IF USING PRE-CAST PIECES) HELPS RETAINING HEAT IN SUMMER IMPROVED REFLECTIVITY AND AMBIENT LIGHTING (REDUCE USAGE OF ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING)

DISADVANTAGES REQUIRES SKILLED LABOUR (REQUIRES A LARGE AMOUNT OF FORMWORK, CENTERING, AND SHUTTERING TO BE INSTALLED) CANNOT BE USED IMMEDIATELY AFTER CONSTRUCTION (IT TAKES TIME FOR CONCRETE TO REACH ITS FULL STRENGTH) REQUIRE SPECIAL ATTENTION (AVOID DURABILITY ISSUES)

3.0 FACADE PRECEDENT STUDY KMC CORPORATE OFFICE BUILT: 2012 LOCATION: HYDERABAD, INDIA ARCHITECT: RMA Architects BUILDING TYPE: OFFICE BUILDING

ALUMINIUM TRELLIS FACADE IT IS KNOWN AS THE OUTER FACADE COMPRISES OF A CUSTOM CAST ALUMINUM TRELLIS. IT COMES WITH THE HYDROPONIC TRAYS INTEGRATED FOR GROWING PLANTS. THE FACADE'S PRINCIPLE IS BASED ON THE CONCEPT OF A DOUBLE-SKIN THAT ALLOWS LIGHT AND AIR TO BE MODULATED VIA THE STRUCTURE. THE SCREEN ALSO SERVES AS AN AESTHETIC PURPOSE IN THIS PROJECT, SERVING AS A DYNAMIC FAÇADE WHERE VARIOUS SPECIES ARE GROUPED TO PRODUCE PATTERNS.

REASON OF CHOICE THE ALUMINIUM TRELLIS FACADE CAN BE EASILY ASSEMBLE AND ATTACH WITH THE WIRE MESH WHICH FUNCTIONS AS ONE OF THE PLANTING SYSTEMS ESPECIALLY THE CLIMBING PLANTS. WHEN IT IS COVERED WITH CERTAIN AMOUNT OF CLIMBING PLANTS, IT PROVIDE CERTAIN PRIVACY TO THE DWELLING AS THE SITE IS QUITE EXPOSED TO THE SURROUNDING.

CONSTRUCTION METHOD IT IS CONSTRUCTED WITH THICK VERTICAL ALUMINIUM POST AND THIN HORIZOTAL BRACING BY USING THE WELDING TECHNIC THEN TIED WITH CABLES FOR THE GROW OF CLIMBING PLANTS ON THE TRELLIS.

ADVANTAGES PROVIDE A CLASSIC LOOK HIGHLY SECURE MATERIAL LOW CONSTRUCTION COST EASY MAINTENANCE HIGHLY RECYCLABLE MATERIAL (REDUCE WASTAGE) COMES IN A VARIETY OF COLOURS (MORE CHOICES) LIGHT MATERIAL

DISADVANTAGES EXPENSIVE THAN STEEL COSTLY WELDING PROCESS

4.0 ROOF PRECEDENT STUDY HOUSE M7 BUILT: 2020 LOCATION: WARSAW, POLAND ARCHITECT: MFRMGR Architekci BUILDING TYPE: HOUSE

WITHOUT OVERHANG

WITH OVERHANG

FLAT PARAPET ROOF A PARAPET ROOF OCCURS WHEN A STRUCTURE'S OUTERMOST WALLS PROTRUDE UPWARDS PAST THE ROOF AROUND THE EDGES, USUALLY BY A FEW FEET. ALTHOUGH THEY ARE LABELED AS "FLAT," PRACTICALLY ALL FLAT ROOFS HAVE A SLOPE TO ALLOW RAINFALL TO RUN OFF TO THE LOWER SIDE. THEY'RE USUALLY PLANNED TO HAVE A MINIMUM FALL OF 1:40, WHICH, GIVEN ON-SITE IMPERFECTIONS, SHOULD RESULT IN A MINIMUM FALL OF AT LEAST 1:80 IN THE FINISHED PRODUCT.

REASON OF CHOICE A FLAT PARAPET ROOF IS CHOSEN AS IT PROVIDED AN EXTRA SPACE THAT CAN BE USE AS A ROOFTOP GARDEN IN THE DWELLING. THE ROOFTOP SPACE IS FULLY UTILISED WHICH INITIALLY CREATED A BEAUTIFUL GARDEN FOR PLANTING THE HERBS AND ALSO SERVED AS A RELAXING ZONE. BESIDES, IT IS THE SIMPLEST TO CONVERT INTO A ROOFTOP GARDEN WITH THE USE OF CONTAINERS AND RAISED BEDS.

CONSTRUCTION METHOD IT TYPICALLY CONSISTS OF A STRUCTURAL LAYER OF CONCRETE FINISHED WITH A SMOOTH SCREED, ON TOP OF WHICH A WATER-PROOF LAYER, SUCH AS A MEMBRANE, IS APPLIED. TO PREVENT INTERSTITIAL CONDENSATION, THE ROOF SHOULD INCLUDE INSULATION AND, IN MOST CASES, A VAPOUR CONTROL LAYER.

ADVANTAGES LOW CONSTRUCTION COST (CHEAPER THAN PITCHED ROOF) PROVIDE AN EXTRA SPACE FOR MULTI-FUNCTIONS (ROOFTOP GARDEN / RELAXATION AREA) TAKE LESS CONSTRUCTION TIME (FEWER MATERIALS AND TOOLS TO WORK WITH) EVENLY DISTRIBUTED THE WIND PRESSURE FROM SURROUNDING

DISADVANTAGES LACK OF DRAINAGE SYSTEM (CHECK THE ROOF REGULARLY) ROOFING MATERIAL IS LIMITED THE DRAIN WILL BE CLOGGED BY LEAVES, TWIGS & DIRT (LEADS TO RAINWATER NOT DRAINING PROPERLY)
