3. INTRODUCTION
Outcomes:
1. To coordinate and develop an understanding of coherent
working relations and to improve the communication channels.
2. Ability to document their observations and understanding
from interview session and research resources as well as to
communicate their findings in a systematic and convincing
presentation and reports.
3. Explain and illustrate structures of organizations involved in
the construction industry from the design stage to final account
stage.
Task:
In a group work of 2 students, we need to find a specific land
within campus area to initiate a small construction project. The
size of the land shall not be more than 30m x 30m. We should
propose one project that serves one of the following purposes.
1. Recreation area
2. Study Enhancement Area
3. Rest area
4. Food and beverage (dining area)
5. Commercial area (exclude food and beverage)
4. Suggestion / proposal
Towards the site that we had chosen, my group member and I
did a lot of website and book references research. Throughout this
process we had suggested that the empty land next to the theater TV
studio is most suitable to develop a food and beverage area (dining
area).
We initially wanted to propose on a café shop, due the space
within the area, it’s more suitable to design a dining area. Our
proposal on the design is much like fine dining or classic restaurant
for the purpose for students and people within the campus can enjoy
the dining experience.
Dining area
5. INTRODUCTION TO THE SITE
Our 8m x 16m selected site is the empty open public spaces beside the
experimental theatre. Our chosen site is between Block B and Block C. Go left
after you walk out from library, then go straight. It’s on your right hand side
after you walk about 5 to 10 meters.
The selected site is a space that people passes by everyday so we decided
to construct a food and beverage area on this site because people can easily find
where our site locates.
6. Site analysis and observation
As me and my group partner did a site analysis before choosing it.
The result was quite satisfying, due to the spacious of the area, the wind
flow direction comes directly to the area which makes the whole entire
place very breezy. Also through our observation as I mention earlier the
area has many route that connect to this area, which makes the
community easier to access.
7. Rationale and benefits
Of your project
To client and community
The reasons that we had our site chosen on the 2nd floor, which is
next to the theater TV studio is because this area is located within the
study area whereby, when it’s lunch time for the students they are
able to access to this area for dining, which is nearer than going to the
commercial block (syopz mall) for dining purpose.
Also we did a survey on the circulation for the site, which there
are many route to enter the area so that is an easy access for the
community. Not only it benefits the client and the community, the
location of the place attracted attention for people to come and also
they are able to enjoy the dining experience.
8. Sketch plan of your proposal
From our discussion and some inspiration we have come up with
a very suitable plan we would like to propose. After a few sketches of
plan, we decided to pick one of them to be the finalize plan that will be
put into develop.
9. Images of your ideas

10. Site plan
Our site plan is located at 2nd floor of the campus, which is beside
the theater TV studio.
11. Zoning of the plan layout
As you can see this is the finalize plan layout for the design of the
dining area that we would be proposing, as the full measurement of this
plan is 19.170m X 15.745m. As you can see the zoning of this plan
consists of two parts, the dining area which included lounge area, drink
counter, cashier counter, toilet, kitchen and dining tables and chairs.
Whereas for the second part is the balcony which included several ding
tables and chairs, L shape sofa and some softscape at the border of the
balcony.

30. Conclusion
Throughout this project, as a group of two, we had participated lot in
site investigation. As the result, we had learned how to distribute task
accordingly, work individually, and corporate when doing site
investigation.
During this period of time we had did a lot of research and asking our
senior about their previous experience. With that we gradually gain more
knowledge and more experience.
Lastly, after this project I had really enhance my observation and
analysis skill which I think is very useful that able to put skill to the test for
the next semester. Most important is that our aim for this project is to
design to its full potential so that people able to enjoy the full experience of
dining in campus.
