ABSTRACT

(his proposal reveals the suggestion to build a sport club for the students and

also outsiders at niversity of #alaya. In this assignment, we are given a site which is

located next to the -arsity +ake and also near to the main road. (here are some factors

which need to be taken in account before start to design a new sport club.

First at all, the purpose and function of the building need to be determined. %e

need to concern on the ma&or functions of a sport club and also its advantages for

niversity of #alaya itself or the occupants including students and staffs. !ext,

appearance of a building also important to be included since the site is located near to

the main road and main entrance /+ gate0. )ther than that, we also need to consider

the amount of occupants can be accommodated and also types of activities that can be

held in the sport club.

Furthermore, the site location and site condition are the most significant

criteria for designing a building. %e need to do the %)( analysis on the site, to get

know well the site condition. For designing a building, we are need to include some

factors that may affect the design and structure of the buildings, for example

orientation of the building, climate change, topography, vegetation, landscape, natural

ventilation and so on. "ence, site analysis is needed before design a building, to make

sure that the design of the building is depend on the site conditions and safe for use.

Before coming out with a floor plan of the sport club, bubble diagram or

spatial plan is needed to be decided. Bubble diagram is very useful for people to

decide the location of different rooms and also relationships between spaces. +ist of

spaces also need to be considered in this very first stage which consist of four types of

spaces such as private, semi private, semi1public and public. Bubble diagram and list

of spaces is the first stage for designing a building.

(he proposed sport club is also designed based on the legislations and

regulations in #alaysia, especially niform Building By1+aws 2345, to ensure the

safety of the occupants and fulfil the re6uirement of a building. In this proposal. (he

design development for the sport club is shown and the final output is explained in

form of details. Besides that, the submission drawing plans for the sport club are

attached to give a clearer imagination on the proposed sport club.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

(he proposal aims to design and build a sport club with floor area 577 metres s6uare

at the propose site, which named -arsity port Club. (he new design is done based on

the re6uirements of legislations and regulations, knowledge of sub&ects that I learnt

before, such as #aterial and Construction (echnology, 8nvironmental 9hysics,

Building +aw and also #echanical and 8lectrical ervices. (he sketch plans are

prepared and attached with the re6uired documents.

1.1 OBJECTIVE

2． (o perform site analysis to document site specific characteristics as part of essential

process for a design.

Figure 2.2 Site plan drawingSource: Author. 2015

From the figure :.2=:.:, we can clearly see the location of the site which we are assigned to

build a sport club. (he site location is a very good strategy place since it is access to the main

road alan +ingkung Budi0 which is connected with the /+ gate main entrance0 and also

9etaling aya gate main entrance0. (here are also a lot of faculties and residential around the

site, such as Faculty of +aw, first residential, second residential and so on.

(he dimension and shape of the site is shown as above. (he dimension of the sites are

measured by using the measuring tape.

.0 SITE ANALYSIS


7/23

%e need to go through the site analysis in order to get more information about the site before

the design process is started. For site analysis. %e need to consider the strategic location of

the site, site condition, current context, accessibility. (opography, vegetation, sun orientation

and so on.

(here is also a lot of existing vegetation at the site. %e will consider this as our building

design factor, so that we will minimi$e use of the green space in order to maintain the green

environment and achieve the environment sustainability. -egetation on the site can supply

fresh air to the people around there as well as for the occupants of a new sport club in future.

Figure 3.6 "ind direction on the site.Source: Author, 2015

un orientation on the site is very important to decide the building location and

orientation. %e need to avoid the building from direct sunlight, so that the

temperature of the sport club will not be affected. For wind direction, it is not

necessary to take in account because they are always different in the time and days, so

actually can be said that the wind direction may come to any angle of ;7 degree of

the site. But, it is possible to consider the wind direction as the building design criteria

with determine the most wind direction along the site in a year.

(he landscape of the site is considered flat althought there is some holes at the

middle of the site. "ence, there &ust need a minor site clearance need to be done and

same as the excavation works in the construction stage. !onetheless, the soil at the

site is considered low bearing capacity soft0 may be due to the -arsity +ake is beside

the site. "ence, during the construction process, the soil compaction process is needed

to make sure the soil can withstand high load bearing, so that the sport club will not

sink in the future. Besides that, there is also a potential problem which the sport club

may face is the risk of flooding although there is a river along the site, ungai 9antai

can somehow function as drainage but the drainage system at the site is not proper

installed yet. In history of #, niversity of #alaya has faced a serious flooding

which is included the proposed site.

!.0 SWOT ANALYSIS

%)( analysis is a study of determining the possible strength, weakness, potential

opportunities and threats of the site. trength and weakness are considered to be the

internal positive and internal negative impacts whereas the opportunities and threats

are categoti$ed as the extenal latent affects on this site. (he %)( analysis for this

building is showed as the table below. By doing this assessment, useful outcomes

such as the strengths and opportunities could be reinforced while the weaknesses and

threars would be improved through appropriate solutions.

7.0 DESIGN CONCEPT

(he figure above shows the location of the sport club on the site which is facing the

-arsity +ake. (he total floor area for the sport club is 577 s6uare metres only because we

need to maintain the vacant green environment. 't the ground floor, there are plant room,

store room, pantry for officers0, office space, meeting room, foyer, lounge space, reception

area, staff water closet, changing room and caf?, meanwhile, at the first floor, there are

gymnasium, two multipurpose rooms and water closet. For the sport club that I have

designed, all the sport activities will be conducted at the first floor and the ground floor is for

reception, light refreshment and also area for people to change clothes.

(here are four different types of spaces at the ground floor which are private

spaces, semi1private spaces, semi1public spaces and also public spaces. From the

ground floor plan, we can see that the flow of the different spaces and there is no

mixing of public and private spaces due to the privacy.


18/23

(here is a caf? with total floor areas ;< s6uare metres which consists of a A.<

s6uare metres of kitchen and two of 2.< s6uare metres of water closets. 8stimated

floor area for seating and counter space is 2


19/23

space because office space is a private space, so it is not allowed for other people

simply to get in. (here is also a back exit for the building to let people exit or enter

the building and also fulfil the re6uirement of fire safety according the BB+ 2345.

For the first floor, there is only one type of space which is semi1private space.

@ymnasium and multipurpose room are considered as semi1private spaces because the

first floor only for the sport club members and the members share to use.

For gymnasium, there are divided into three different areas which are stretch

area, cardiovascular area and also resistance or free weight area. (he stretch area is

the first and last area to be used, for warming up and warming down, hence it should

located near to the fitness gym entrance to promote its use. (his area will be supplied

with vinyl covered padded floor matting. (he cardiovascular area is supplied and

located next to the gla$ing external wall which is facing the -arsity +ake. "ence, for

those who work out at cardiovascular area such as using treadmills, upper body

ergometers, exercise bicycle and so on, will face the -arsity +ake when they are doing

their exercises. 9eople can en&oy the beauty of the lake and at the same time, they also

can en&oy their exercises. For the resistance and free weight area, such as dumbbell

weights, arm machine, smith machines and so on are located at the behind of the

gymnasium. (he minimum re6uired space is :< s6uare metres. (he gymnasium can

accommodate about ;7 to 57 people and full with exercise e6uipment. For the

multipurpose room, it can be used as aerobic room, dancing room, martial arts room.

#ultipurpose room can accommodate about

;.0 CONCLUSION

(he proposal of designing the sport club is need to be considered in many

considerations and re6uirements which is related to legislations and regulations,

mechanical and electrical services, materials and construction technology, building

services etc.

(o start the design of the sport club, we need to do research about the

background and history of the site. %e need to do the site analysis to observe and

determine the site conditions. Besides that, %)( analysis is need for every design of

building, to identify the Mtrengths, %eaknesses, )pportunities and (hreatsN of the

site. 'fter that, re6uirement and purpose of the building is need to be considered

during design the sport club, such as amount of occupants, functions of the building,

thermal comfort and so on.

During building designing process, we need to consider the re6uirement andregulations of #alaysia. For instance, we need to fulfil the minimum re6uirement for

natural ventilation and also natural lighting of a building which is stated in the

niform Building By1laws 2345. Besides that, minimum re6uirement for area of a

room also need to be taken in account in the designing of the sport club.

'lthough there are some weaknesses and threats for the site, but we can

overcome them by change them into strengths and opportunities of the site. (hus, the

sport club can attract more people to come for recreation purpose and en&oy the nice

scenery view from the building.
