BUILDING SERVICES 1
PROJECT 1:
In a group of between 5 to 6 students in the same tutorial group.
We were required to choose a building which was at least 4-storey high which can be either public or commercial buildings (i.e. office blocks, institutional buildings, shopping malls, etc.).We were to perform a thorough study and analysis of the following services systems associated to the building; i) mechanical ventilation and air-conditioning system, ii) electrical supply system, iii), mechanical transportation system as well as iv) fire protection system and document our findings accordingly.
The requirements of the project are as follows.
Identify all the required building services components installed in the building.
Perform a thorough study on all the services systems;
i) mechanical ventilation and air conditioning system,
ii) electrical supply system,
iii) mechanical transportation system, and
iv) fire protection system
Obtain estimate dimensions and sizes of the spaces required for all the equipment and plant rooms identified.
Provide brief explanation on how the building services components function. This explanation shall be in qualitative form and therefore no calculation is required.
Summarize the systems in diagrammatic form.
REFLECTIONS:
This assignment helped me research each of the systems in depth.
I learnt to produce my work with clarity in terms of visual images.
There was production of quality drawings and diagrams including appropriate drawing standards and conventions.
