1.1 PURPOSE The purpose of this project is for students to find amusement and outing with friends quick for them without the need to find taxis or buses to go to other places. The purpose of the food stalls are for students to find a place to rest from their outing and have a place to hang out and have fun. 1.2 BACKGROUND Taylor’s University is full of facilities that would help students in many problems. Although, students still take their time going to Sunway Pyramid to reduce stress and have a fun time with their friends with the sole purpose of celebrating such as birthdays or finishing a hard assignment without the need to even shop. Some people were left out of the celebrating group as the celebration might end at a late time and they need to get back to their homes quickly. This project, which would be built in the campus would make a good way to prevent such things, as it would amuse students and have fun with their friends inside the campus, with facilities such as arcade games, skateboard ramps, paintball and laser tag games, a great way to enhance bonds between friends. Students can just take a quick 30 minutes in the area rather than spending hours in Sunway Pyramid, also needing to find taxis or wait for the bus. 1.3 OBJECTIVES

• Creating space to allow Taylor’s students to have fun and release stress

• Another land mark for Taylor’s Lakeside • Attract people to come and study at Taylor’s Lakeside • Another development project for Taylor’s • To provide opportunity of business • Enhance rate of investment • Potentially attract crowd into university without spending money to

make advertisement

1.4 BENEFITS

• Encourages social interaction • Enhance bonds between friends • A place for students to hang out and get to know each other • Provides a pleasant atmosphere right outside classes, to get away

from stress from studies • Improves communication skills between students • Develop new relationships • Cost effective leisure for students • A Source Of Healthy Entertainment • Improves the image of the university

The amusement park will provide complete satisfaction to the students. During their visit, they will not only participate and get entertained but also derive thrill. The food is going to be heavenly and the facilities available at the park are educative for the students and informative for the adults.

• Amusement Park as a Source of Education

Most of the university students in the country are confined to theoretical academic curriculum, which tends to be stereotype, monotonous and less receptive. When the education is coupled with entertainment, it brings out the desired results. By visiting this amusement park, they learn to work and enjoy work as a group and team spirit is inculcated in them. They are taught discipline, patience and tolerance etc. As during their visit to the park they have to wait for their turn, enjoy even while striking against each other and tolerate any discomfort. That is the reason why this Amusement park is very important

1.5 SUCCESS CRITERIA Success has always been the ultimate goal of every activity, and a construction project is no exception. Due to the ambiguous definition of project success and the different perceptions of participants toward this concept, it may be difficult to tell whether a project is successful as there is a lack of consensus. Time, cost, and quality have long been the success criteria used to evaluate the performance of a construction project. However, such a list has been criticized as not being comprehensive. Even studies of the project success of a particular construction method, such as the design/build procurement system, are lacking in most previous research considering construction projects in general.

2. PROJECT DEFINITION

2.1 BUDGET

2.2 SCHEDULE

2.3 CONSTRAINT COST / RESOURCE

• Statistics used in preparing the estimates are unreliable.

• The consulting requirements from outside cannot be accurately estimated

TIME

• Deliverables submitted for approval will require only working days for review.

• There is no limit to review and approval cycles.

• Equipment order lead times cannot be specified with accuracy in time.

• The project might be delayed because of weather which most of the time is raining.

• The muslim worker might work slower than other because the construction is in fasting month.

SCOPE

• The scope of the project is unclear and hard to evaluate .

• The project depends upon receiving data from other, such as external applications and private application.

• Key decision-makers are difficult to contact when issues arise with the project.

• Key staff resources will be available only on a part-time basis not full- time.

• Computer resources will be available on a limited basis

4. RISKS The many students going in and out of the amusement park and food stalls would give so much noise, where the arcade games, skateboarding, paintball & laser tag games would contribute too. This would distract studies from the classroom, which is just next to the site. Moreover, it would distract lecturers as the Divisional office is also next to the site. The site also contains an important part on ventilation for the classrooms and divisional offices, making a building on the site would eliminate the ventilation for the buildings. 5.
