3. Introduction
In this project we were tasked to locate a site
of 30m x 30m of vacant land to initiate a certain
construction to serve a purpose.
The aim of this project is to enable students
to develop an understanding of the building team,
its organization, duties and inter-relations within
which they will seek employment, career
progression or further study. To develop an
awareness of their professional responsibilities
and to appreciate their profession in the
construction industry.
During every section of the proposal, we can
learn about the coherent working relations among
various industry players. We will be able be to
document our analysis and research resources as
well communicate ideas in systematic and
convincing presentations and reports.

4. Introduction to The Site
In this assignment our site of 30m x 30m will be allocated at Jalan PJS 7/7. My group
mate and I have discussed about the site and decided to present a construction proposal to
recreate the empty area, which is an underdeveloped park in PJS 7/7 close to a residential
area. We decided to choose this area because it would be such a waste to let this
undeveloped land to not be used, so I decided to propose a residential construction here
because there is a university located nearby Taylor’s Lakeside Campus, this will help
students looking for a place to rent.

6. Site Analysis and Observation
The site we had chosen is a place in Pjs 7/7 located near the Lebuhraya Damansara
Puchong highway around the residential areas. The size of the site is approximately 30m x
38m. It has a small cottage in the middle of the park with the size of 2m x 2m. There is also
some small bushes aligned together with some other tress with different sized. The west
side of the site overlooks a road with a long stretch of houses leading further into the
residential area. The east side look looks out to the highway while the south side look are
terrace houses.

8. Suggestion and Proposal
There are a few things that should be taken noted of when trying to construct a
residential area. The area first must be clean, safe and the neighbours should be friendly
and understanding. To create a good living space firstly we should design the area to be
comfortable to be able to live in. Fully furnished with daily home essentials.
To create a harmony place to stay few elements are required such as lighting,
decoration, facilities and materials used to make the house.

done by the industry leaders who take these
proposals and apply them to projects and through
that process, create best practices that can be
replicated easily and cost effectively.
