Internship 

Abstract

A short semester of internship at the beginning of a new year was the perfect start to value of what’s coming ahead. As a student in Taylor’s university, we are trained to do projects which are marked and graded by our beloved lecturers. What lies beyond a university’s studies is a working life of an architect who works day and night to strive in this never ending growth of built environment. An architect’s life at work is very contrasting to what we do a university as everything done in office will be accounted and held responsible if anything is wrong or right. A smallest amount of error can make things go real bad, from endangering a built environment or even people’s lives. The experience I got from an intensive nine weeks of internship was extremely valuable and worth remembering.

Learning Outcomes:

1. Recognize and recall authorities’ procedures and requirements with regards Planning Submission and/or Building Submission drawings.

2. Appreciate the requirements of a complete set of Planning and/or Building Submission drawings and the need for compliance with the relevant by-laws.

3. Appreciate a typical written specification in support of a set of working drawings

4. Produce a typical set of Client-Consultant Meeting (CCM) minutes

5. Work successfully in small teams for the success of medium-sized projects.

6. Appreciate the resource planning issues that take place in a typical architect’s practice.

7. Produce a complete logbook documenting experience in a typical architect’s practice. 

Objective: 

1. Create awareness and understanding among students of the existence and application of the Uniform Building by Laws and similar Building Regulations existing nationally and internationally

2. Create an awareness among students with regards the different activities that occur within the typical architect’s office

Representing place

Project 1

This project require use to carry out with site visit at Petaling Street in order to produce a book as the final out come of this module. The assignment is continues and related briefly is a procedure of producing a book from an idea until a solid book outcome. In a group of 6 we are require to survey curtain part in Petaling Street and end up combining information with other groups to produce a book.

Presentation slides

Reflection

Throughout this module i had much skills toward interviewing and some music band knowledge as well according to our tutor is an amazing influencer and sharing so much personal experience during the class in order to create better atmosphere during the class. Furthermore, i had learn about process of publishing a book and a procedure of producing a book thank you to this module and i had become more skilled toward this procedure.  

Building Structure

Project 1

For this project, in a group of 5 members, we need to select the design of one of the members in studio 3. Working in a group, we are required to re-design the roof of that building by using truss designs. By using any material of our choice, we construct the model of our design. The size of the model must be appropriate to fit well on an A2 baord. 

Project 2

This project, it is divided into two parts, first part should be done in a group while the second part is an individual work.

Part 1 – 15% (Group components)

Working in a group of 3 members, each group is to design a 2 storey bungalow which consist of the following components:

1. 1 master bedroom with attached bathroom

2. Minimum 3 bedrooms

3. 2 bathrooms

4. Kitchen

5. Living hall

6. Dining area

7. 1 store room.

​

Part 2 – 25% (Individual components)

Each student is required to:

1. To analysis minimum 6 beams (each beam must subject to different types of load, i.e. UDL from one or more than one slabs, beam with point load(s) or combination of UDL and PL)

2. To analysis minimum 3 columns (from roof to foundation level)

Final Report

Building Services

Project 1

Aims to develop an understanding of building services through the demonstration of appropriate service system in the building design by ourselves in Semester 2 Design Studio. Related drawings, diagrams, appropriate symbols and ubbl are required to develop ability to resolve issues related to specific building services system. These systems include:

i) electrical supply system

ii) cold water and hot water supply system

iii) sewerage and sanitary system

iv) drainage system

Project 2

This project aim to introduce basic principles and integrate various building systems through real life project. It also helps to gain basic understanding on the drawing conventions as well as standards for various building system. In a group of 6, we are to select a multi storey building with the following service system:

i. Mechanical Ventilation 

ii. Air-conditioning System 

iii. Active and Passive Fire Protection System 

iv. Mechanical Transportation System

A site visit to the selected building have given us an opportunity to have a hands on experience in exploring various building service in a building. We are required to carry out an analytical study and document all the findings, diagrams, literature reviews, as well as photos accordingly. UBBL are referred to justify if the selected building meets all the requirements stated.

Asian architecture

Project 1

We are required to choose a contextual architecture and conduct an in depth analytical case studies. The building that i have chosen is S11 house. According to the brief, it calls for a house for 2 generational family equipped with resort facilities and green features. Attached below is the presentation board showcasing the understanding.

Project 2

The second project is a collaborative effort between the six members of the group to produce a detailed written paper on a chosen topic proposed on our own regarding the building. We must then write a 2000 word case study paper to showcase our findings in relation to the topic chosen. Our topic is "Building Orientation of the S11 House as a Passive Design Consideration for Architecture in a Tropical Climate". Below is our report:

studio 4

Project 1

Personal space

Elderly needs extra care due to physical deterioration. The furniture is required to be flexible, lightweight, and easy to be operated. A visit to the nursing homhas given us an opportunity to approach the aged group and understand their basic needs. Later, we are required to choose a client and design a furniture for him/her based on their daily as well as emotional needs.

Project 2A

Project 2B

Upon completing the site analysis, it helps us to gain a basic understanding on site and derived the concept as well as poetic quality in respond to the site context. One of the idea is to strengthen the bonding between aged group and youngster together by utilizing the existing space for related activities and make them interact together.  I have studied on a few nursing home from different countries and tried to applied the related concept into my building. The floor plans and the approaches are satisfying but i think there are so much room of improvements in term of building elevations and overall relationship with the site. The feedback on the judgement day are very helpful and have given me more idea to achieve my concept. Interesting landscapes and the public gathering space should be more well thought and designed in order to make the elderly home integrate more with the site. I understand that there are more space for improvement and will definitely work harder for the coming assignments.
