GROUP PROJECT

Project 1

Industrialised Building System

Project 1 is a group project which is related to the topics on Industrialised Building System (IBS). Each group is required to design simple apartment units using IBS construction system. The objective of this project is to expose and engage students in a critical and analytical study of the different IBS construction methods and engage students to assessment of IBS scoring. Accordingly a model shall be produced together with a video documentation of the assembly process of the model.

We are to perform a study on a building preferably an apartment, which was constructed fully or partially using IBS method and identify all the IBS components used including appropriate sizes, etc.
Design an apartment units which size should not exceed 100 square meters per unit and each unit must consists of a living hall, a dining area, three bedrooms and two toilets. The design should incorporate mainly IBS structure and components such as precast wall, blockwork, hollow core slab, precast staircase, toilet pod, prefabricated timber roof truss, etc. with appropriate sizes.
The units shall be arranged as follows and made into three levels.

The content of report may include concept and framework of proposed IBS categories, relevant drawings such as plans, elevations, sections, isometric view, sectional perspectives and details, sequence of construction and schedule of modular components.
Concept and framework may include the suitability of proposed system, features of the proposed IBS components, fabrication process and sequence of construction shall be included in the report.

Outcome

Reflection

This assignment has introduced me to blockwork system and the construction process and details of it. I have learnt a lot in this assignment.
