4. INTRODUCTION
In our subject Introduction to Construction Industry, we were
given an assignment that require us select a site in Taylor’s University
that create a certain purpose of it. Our site is located in block A, ground
floor on the left side of Taylor’s University entrance.
We are going to create a recreational area consisting an elevated
garden that will attract students to rest there and have a breath of fresh
air from the hustle of college.
5. PURPOSE
The purpose of this project is for Taylor’s Lakeside University
students for them to have a better place to rest. We would like to also
bring the students closer to nature.
This area is also to create fresh air for the students from all the
carbon dioxide air coming from all the car at the main entrance of the
campus.
This project will also make the school compound more greener
because of its green implantation to the site.
6. CONCEPT
We choose that area because Taylor’s Lakeside University is not
putting use to that area. It’s a wasted area. The site size is 10m x 7m.
The reason why we chose this site is because this site was not really
appreciated and also not put to use
The concept of this project is to give the students a rest/ waiting
area. We are going to provide an area for the students to wait for their
parents at a more comfortable way and also more convenient for them.
The materials we are going to use are wooden planks, beams,
columns and etc.
This new concept for this project will increase the population in
that area and it will increase the usage in that area.
