STRAITS INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL RAWANG (SIS RAWANG)
 Private International School
 Straits International Education Group Sdn Bhd
 Located in Taman Sari Rawang, Selangor
 3 storey building – Max. 1000 students
PROJECT BRIEF SUMMARY

4. Front Elevation

5. Sides Elevation

6.  Vibrating floor on 3rd floor as the sport activities are active on that floor causing
noise pollution affecting room on the lower level facilities such as Classrooms
 The open-air area on the roof floor is not appropriate for badminton court to function
 Lack of roofing to sports courts on 3rd floor, affecting the function of the space and
its whole life costing.
 Having playground and playroom on the Ground Floor, which both spaces are
supporting function with the same objective
PROBLEM BRIEF SUMMARY

7. Vibrating floor on 3rd floor as the sport activities are active on that floor1
Fast Diagram – Acoustic wall panel
To provide a better sound proof system to the
classroom at second floor to avoid interferences
from the surrounding.
To provide a better study and working
environment for the user.
To prevent idling of the space due to the
distraction from surrounding.
To avoid extra cost of installation after the
building constructed.

8. Vibrating floor on 3rd floor as the sport activities are active on that floor (Cont’d)1
Fast Diagram – Sound and vibration absorbing mat
To install sound and vibration absorbing mat below 3rd floor slab, above ceiling, for all classroom at 2nd floor to absorb
the vibration and noise from the floor above due to heavy activities.
Provide a better environment to the classroom and for user. As for the Multipurpose hall, the sound and vibration
absorbing mat will be adding above the slab to prevent the sound pollution to other activities happen near to the hall.

9. The open-air area on the roof floor is not appropriate for badminton court to function2
Value Tree Diagram
To put the space of badminton court for a
better use, it could be replace by tennis
course where the expenses to build a tennis
court will nearly be the same cost as the
original badminton court.
Tennis game will not affect by the wind
effect at the top floor of the building.
The value tree analysis tool shows that
changing the space to a tennis court is the
most efficient way to add more value to the
space and at the same time it is also the
most cost saving plan.

12. Steel roofing lifespan are expected to last a lot longer.
No need for any chemical treatments to maintain the frame and prevent risk of insect infestations
A strong and firm structure and also lightweight, making them easier and quicker to transport and
install.
Any climate changes, steel roofing could withstand it better than the other material.

14. Playground and playroom on GF, both supporting function with the same objective (Cont’d)4
Creativity Technique
One of the underlying fundamental concepts of VM is to promote innovative solutions. The VM team used
the functional analysis to foster innovation. Solving question such as ‘What must the component do?’ which
raises the level of abstraction enabling the team to come up with alternative ways to fulfill the function
‘What must the component do?’ – To accommodate students and to facilitate activities
Alternative ways to fulfill the function? – Combining the two space into one

24. CONCLUSION
The introduction to Value Management during the design stage is vital as it is considered the
perfect timing to address all existing issues of the project as any changes implied to the
design will not be costly and negates all imposition of risk. With both design and functional
aspects resolved, the Client will not have to worry about additional costs of changes to be
implied later on. The total outcome of the design changes will impose an additional sum of
costs, while assuring the low maintenance costs of these elements in the prospective future.
