ARC 2423 BUILDING SERVICES

 

PROJECT 1 - APPLICATION OF BUILDING SERVICES

 

Objectives of Project

The objective of this project is as follows:

• Develop students understanding and knowledge of building services systems in design and construction.

• Apply appropriate building services system and solution for a specific design.

• Demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of applicability of specific building services system in the

  design in response to practical considerations

• Develop students’ understanding and familiarity on the drawing conventions and standards for different

  building services systems

 

Learning Outcomes of this Project

On completion of this assignment, students will be able to:

• Propose a complete installation of appropriate building services systems for the students’ own design; cold and hot water supply, sewerage, sanitary and drainage systems as well as electricity supply.

• Familiarize with the images of different components for each building services system proposed.

• Produce drawings and diagrams of building services systems which relate to the design. 

 

In this project, we are to apply four types of building services- cold water system, sewerage system, drainage system and electricity system to our Studio 2 Tea House design. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

PROJECT 2 (Group) Case Study, Analysis and Documentation of Building Services Systems 

 

Objectives of Project

The objectives of this assignment are as follows:

• To introduce students to the basic principles, process and equipment of various building services systems through real life project (experiential learning).

• To expose students to the integration of various building services systems in a building.

• To allow students to demonstrate their understanding of building services systems

• To develop students’ understanding and familiarity on the drawing conventions and standards for different

  building services systems

 

Learning Outcomes of this Project

On completion of this assignment, students will be able to:

• Identify and understand relevant information related to water and electrical supply, sewerage, mechanical ventilation and air-conditioning as well as fire protection systems.

• Understand how each building services functions including the connections and position of different parts equipment.

• Understand and explain the principles and systems as well as space implications and regulations related to different building services.
