PROJECT BACKGROUND
Klangis the royalcity and former capital of the state of Selangor in Malaysia. The
name Klang is inspired fromDatoEe. Itis located within the Klang District in Klang
Valley. Itis located about 32 km to the westof Kuala Lumpur and 6 km east of
PortKlang. Itwas the civil capital of Selangor in an earlier era prior to the
emergence of Kuala Lumpur and the current capital, Shah Alam. We see that it
has potential to be developed because it has quite a number of empty lands.
The empty land we havechosen is located near JalanTelukPulai, 41100 Klang. In
this area, we have a restaurant, a residential area anda motorbikeshop in frontof
the land, a hindu temple and a residential area oppositethe road. Our site is full
of weeds and trees. We think we should develop this land as it is wide and not
being used by the land owner. We wantto makeit as a usefulplace to servefor
the residents in this area.

SITE OBSERVATION
The location we have chosen is an abandoned empty land which is located near JalanTelukPulai,
41100, Klang. This land has been abandoned more than 10 years because the land owner
doesn’t have enough budget to develop it. This land is filled with overgrown weeds and woody
trees. The bushes is very messy and this affect the whole appearance of the land. The whole
land looks like a small forest surrounded by residential areas. The empty land is approximately
40m x 64m and measures about 2560m2. We think that this area lack ofcommercial area like 7-
11 or 99- speedmart and bookshop. With the dense population in this area, we think we should
build a bookshop for people who loves reading and a convenience store for the residents to buy
their daily needs. This would bring lots of benefits to the residents living nearby.

hours available, to provide people who does not sleep early a place to have

CONCEPT
Our convenience storewill be made fromglass. This idea is based on the concept
of Apple Store Fifth Avenuelocated at New York City, United States of America.
Using glass design for the building brings numerous benefits. First, this will save
electricity as the whole convenience will be brighten up during the days with the
help of strong sunlight. We will only have to open the lights at night and this will
sharply decreasethe cost for electricity bills. Furthermore, people passing by can
have a clear look of the whole convenience store. They can easily notice what is in
the storeand they will be attracted to enter the shop. Besides, people inside the
storecan enjoy the scenery outside when they are buying groceries or enjoying a
cup of coffee. They can also notice their car easily inside the store to prevent theft
of their cars.

MATERIAL USED
Type of glassused forbuilding
-3 typesof glassesare combinedtogethertoprovide useful functionsforthe convenience store.
1) Securityglass
Laminated glass isusedto improve itsresistance toimpactandbreakage.
Laminated glass can be made so strong that it is practically impossible to break, making it
feasible to use glass wherever desired, even where high security requirements apply,
including bullet-resistant applications. In the case of breakage, fragments adhere to the
flexible "interlayer"betweenglasslayers,reducingthe chance of injuries.
2) Solarcontrolledglass
Tintedglass is glassdesignedtoreduce orpreventsolarheatingof buildings.
In the body tint approach, the colour causes the glass to absorb solar energy, which is then
re-radiated back out and away from the building. This technology reduces the solar heating
that tends to take place in the convenience store, and thus reduce the need for air
conditioning.Itistherefore anenergy-savingtechnology.
It helps prevent uncomfortable overheating in the store, and it can also reduce irritating
glare fromdirectsunlight.
3) Noise controlledglass
The acoustic glass in a double-glazed unit uses a special interlayer that acts as a dampening
core so that sound energy is effectively blocked from passing from the outside to the inside
pane of glass.
Acoustic glass is used to prevent noise from entering the convenience store as the store is
nearto busy roadsthat will cause noise pollution.
