The document summarizes the urban development of Jalan Enam in Kuala Lumpur over three phases:
1) British colonization with buildings scattered around a focal point.
2) Wartime Japanese occupation led to urban sprawl.
3) Ongoing urban revival by property developer YTL, including new mixed-use developments D6 and D7.
However, the new developments have disrupted existing communities and movement patterns by limiting access to their own users and acting as a physical barrier separating the area.

Facade design schemes are also proposed, featuring different treatments for exposed and solid areas using double-skin facades.
The document analyzes and summarizes the lighting and acoustic performance of spaces in a new library building in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It calculates the daylight factor, illuminance levels, artificial lighting requirements, sound pressure levels, reverberation times, and sound reduction indices for the gallery, studio, academic collection, children's collection, and study lounge spaces. The analyses show that the spaces generally meet or exceed recommended lighting and acoustic standards to provide optimal environments for their intended uses.
The document discusses a case study of acoustic analysis conducted at the SOCSO
Rehabilitation Centre in Malacca, Malaysia. It identifies two key spaces - a gymnasium and
physiotherapy room. Noise sources within each space like electronic equipment, cooling
systems, and human activity are examined. Data on the existing noise conditions is collected
using sound level meters. The results will be used to evaluate each space and their acoustic
performance. Relevant calculations like reverberation time are also described.

The document discusses the eye as a poetic symbol representing perception. Eyes are seen as windows to the soul across many religions and cultures. They reflect one's state of consciousness and allow for deeper understanding between individuals through eye contact and reading emotional messages. However, what we see is also a perception and potentially a deception, as our vision is limited and we interpret images based on our own understanding. Symbolically, eyes often represent humanity and values like wisdom, life, and protection.
The document discusses the design and construction of a fettuccine truss bridge with a clear span of 350mm and weight limit of 180g by a group of 7 students. It includes sections on precedent studies of truss bridges, material testing and selection, structural analysis, model making process, and efficiency calculations. The goal is to design a truss bridge with high aesthetic value, minimal materials, and understanding of structural forces.
This document outlines plans for a project to extend the structure of a three-story residential building called Royal Segar Bungalow. It includes architectural plans showing the layout of each floor and roof, as well as structural plans identifying the building's columns and beams. Distributary plans divide each level into tributary areas. The conclusion states that working on this project provided experience with structural analysis, calculation, and regulations that will help with future structural design work.
The document analyzes beams and slabs in a two-story building. It identifies various slabs as either one-way or two-way slabs based on ratios of dimensions. It then calculates dead loads, live loads, ultimate loads, reactions and bending moments for different beam and slab combinations using given properties and load values. Diagrams and calculations are shown for Beams A-B/6, A/2-8, B/2-6, B/6-8, and B-H/6.
The document provides information about Lembah Bujang archaeological site in Kedah, Malaysia. It includes details about the site's location and background, historical context of Hinduism and Buddhism in the area. Site plans and sections show layouts of proposed developments like roads, buildings and water features. Vegetation types, vehicle and human circulation routes, climate factors like sun paths and wind are also mapped out. Strengths include scenic views and historical structures, while weaknesses are lack of shelters and safety hazards. Opportunities exist to improve facilities and offer more activities.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise boosts blood flow, releases endorphins, and promotes changes in the brain which help enhance one's emotional well-being and mental clarity.
The document provides steps for extruding and modeling various architectural components in AutoCad including extruding from plans to create massing, copying louver points along a divided line, extruding first floors into the model, using pipes along curves for handrails, copying extrusions to create staircases, extruding surfaces along curves for I-beams, assigning layers to components, splitting and grouping columns and I-beams, using boolean differences to create floor layers from walls, and modeling glass, doors, roofs, and contours to assemble an overall architectural model.
This document contains a site plan, floor plans, elevations and sections of a proposed guard house building. The site plan shows the location of the guard house building within the site context, including existing roads, plantations and structures. The floor plans and elevations provide dimensions and descriptions of the internal and external layout of the guard house building. The sections cut through the building and site to illustrate the relative levels.
Construction is ongoing at the site, with workers building the foundation of the structure. The foundation involves laying concrete and ensuring it properly supports and anchors the building. Once complete, construction of the superstructure above ground will begin.

This document provides a portfolio summary of Eugene Peng, a graduate of the Foundation in Natural and Built Environment program who is pursuing a career in architecture. It includes examples of his earliest design works from "Falling Sky" and projects completed in the program from April 2013 to February 2014, including orthographic drawings, site plans, elevations, sections, and models for displaying toys based on the movie "Chicken Little".
Malaysians have developed unique waiting styles and habits as part of their culture. Some examples include:
1) Pedestrians will slowly inch into the road and signal cars to stop so they can cross, rather than waiting for a full break in traffic.
2) On escalators, everyone waits by standing still on the moving stairs rather than walking, blocking the entire space.
3) Parents will often park their cars in the middle of roads to wait for their children, causing traffic jams, or use motorcycles instead to avoid them.
4) Malaysians will find any opportunity to sit while waiting, even on the ground in alleys while collecting recyclables or at busy bus stops
The document provides instructions for a final individual assignment project on culture and civilization for a course. Students are asked to research a theme related to art, architecture, and culture through site visits and literature reviews. They must then design a coffee table book graphical expression of their findings. The project aims to introduce Western and Eastern cultures through historical discoveries, monuments, artworks and achievements. Students will be assessed based on critical thinking demonstrated, originality, research thoroughness, creativity, and understanding of the brief. Deadlines for progress checks and the final submission are provided.
This document discusses cognitive dissonance and ego defense mechanisms. When a belief is challenged, people experience discomfort and will either maintain their original belief or rationalize to preserve their status quo. Common rationalizations seen in students include saying an assignment was unimportant after completing it ("sour grapes") or downplaying their effort after receiving a good grade ("sweet lemons"). While these defenses help achieve psychological equilibrium, overusing them can lead one to excuse failure and avoid challenges to growth. The document concludes with an anecdote where Sigmund Freud tries to use a "sweet lemons" rationalization with his daughter after complimenting her looks, but she defuses it with humor instead of denying reality.
