Synopsis
Integration:
|
:
|
The course provides exercises in designing a complex of buildings with a medium/long span structure and with a complexity involving the site planning of several medium scale public access structures such as commercial buildings, educational institutions, housing, government buildings, health institutions, transportation and telecommunication hubs, as well as religious institution that has a building height of four to eight stories (Low-rise) involving the occupancy of 150 - 200 persons within an area of 1 to 3 acres. Students are required to integrate some knowledge of architectural theory/approach/investigation in designing the buildings with awareness of the services, structural systems, the required construction materials and components and address the related building by-laws. However, design theme for this semester will focus on Aquilaria Research Centre. The choosing and location of the site depends on the appropriate social cultural related issues.

CLO1 To demonstrate the ability to produce the building brief related to a particular architectural issue.
CLO2 To solve design issues related to the site planning of several buildings with the appropriate layout of architectural spaces, image and forms to cater to the needs of a medium rise and medium/long span building.
CLO3 To integrate the necessary technical support aspects such as building services, structures, examples of a significant construction detail whilst illustrating complete compliance to building by-laws on siting and fire safety.
CLO4 To communicate and justify graphically and orally the design in a clear and concise manner
CLO5 To integrate ethics , lifelong learning in studio program (addressed only)
