project 1 | case study of building services in public buildings
This is a group project to perform a case study on building services systems applied and installed in multi-storey buildings. Students will be introduced to the common systems that are used in a bigger volume of spaces and a variety of users.
We are required to choose one multi-storey building as a case study to analyse the following systems associated to building services:
i. mechanical ventilation
ii. air-conditioning system
iii. fire protection system (active and passive fire protection system)
iv. mechanical transportation system (elevator and escalator/ travellator systems)
Project 2 | Application of Building Services
This is an individual project to apply building services systems to a domestic sized building. This exercise requires students to demonstrate their understanding on the application by producing technical drawings incorporating the necessary building services.
Students will demonstrate their understanding of building services by providing the most appropriate systems for the building, which include:
i) electrical supply system
ii) cold water and hot water supply system
iii) sewerage and sanitary system
iv) rainwater/ surface water drainage system
