3. INTRODUCTION
For this assignment,we were assigned to search for a specifc empty
piece of land with a size between 2500m² – 3500m² to initiate a small
construction project along with a report proposal.
The size of the land chosen, should not be smaller nor exceed the
required size of 2500m² – 3500m². What is mentioned in the project
brief is that we require to serve one of the purposes
mentioned.Including, Recreational Area, Residential Area,
Commercial Area, Industrial Area, Agriculture Area, Tourism Area and
Residential areas.
PROJECT OBJECTIVE
The objective of this project is to enable us students to aquire an
understanding of the construction team, organization, inter-relations,
and duties within which they seek employment, career progressions as
well as future studies.
Other than that, it also helps us become aware of the construction
processes of the construction team's professional roles and
responsibilities. Not to forget the values of the professions present in
the construction industry.
We students are also encouraged to deepen our understandings on
the processes in which it takes to submit the accurate building
proposal to our local authorities.

4. PROJECT BENEFITS
On successful completion of this assignment, we students are able to
demonstrate the need to coordinate and develop an understanding of
coherent working relations among various industries players as well as
improving our communication channels. Other than that, we also
gained abilities to document our observation and understanding from
research resources and to communicate their fndings in a systematic
also convincing presentation and report. Not to forget, the ability to
justify the feasibility of a development and to improve our proposal to
serve the aim of it.
SUCESS CRITERIA
If all the construction scheduling goes according to plan,
materials arrived on site on time, documentations gets
approved, workers do not slack, I believe that this will be
an interesting empty site to develop on.

5. INTRODUCTION TO OUR SITE
The selected site is located at Subang Jaya, Selangor. Originally, this
site is nothing but an empty land that is overgrown nature with wild
stray dogs inhabiting the land. However, this site has raw potentials as
it is surrounded by residential area, commercial area, sports
recreational area and an educational area. The site is located in Jalan
SS16/1, 47500 Subang Jaya, Selangor Darul Ehsan. It is surrounded
with commercial areas namely Toyota Service Centre which is just
beside the site, a driving range namely Subang Racquet and Golf
centre which is facing the site. Other than that, residential areas such
as Olive Residence which is a condominium nearby. Furthermore,
SS19 a housing area which consists of landed properties which
includes terrace houses and semi-detached houses. There is also a
school in the neighbourhood namely SK SS17. In addition, this
neighbourhood takes a few minutes to reach nearby town such as
Shah Alam. This neighbourhood can also be easily linked via roads
and highway such as Jalan Kemajuan Subang Highway.

9. SITE ANALYSIS
The plot of land we have chosen to propose on is totally undeveloped.
After establishing the proposed building it will be facing the north.
The size of our site is approximately 3470.55m².
Our site is located right next to the main road that leads to a
roundabout. The road will lead to SS15 and SS16. The traffc fow is
smooth except during peak hours where traffc grows heavy as the
highway is near by.

10. VIEW FROM SITE
ADVANTAGES
Our site is surrounded by residential area, commercial area and recreational
area, with that already built around our propose site it already generate existing
traffc to the area. With a large community around the site, it will help promote
more visitors to come to our site. The land is also barren because it does not
have any obstruction of any sort from any area, giving us a wide expense of open
space, providing us with a great space for development. Ohter than that, there
are currently existing shades such as trees and high rise condominiums. So, it has
rather good air ventilation. Hence, the air quality at the site is in good hands.
DISADVANTAGES
Despite the positive elements present in our site, but nothing comes completely
perfect. Therefore, one of the faws would be the limited amount of highways and
roads to the site, there is only one highway leading to our site. Other than that,
the land is not readily fatten which makes things harder to develop, thus the cost
for develop is higher and consumes more time.

12. PROJECT CONCEPT
1.HEALTH AND FITNESS
The main concept that I will be implementing in
this project focuses on health and ftness. By
developing a functional commercial used area
with this concept, it could bring benefts to the
residents living around the area such as, to
promote the health and well-being to be more
productive, safe, and health-conscious through
ftness. The purpose of this concept is for most
individual to have a place to escape from their
hectic and stressful lives as the best way to relieve
stress or tension through ftness.
2. ECOFRIENDLY
This project will also emphasis on being
environmentally friendly. We insist to implement a
garden on the rooftop. This will help customers
feel more connnected to mother nature and also
help improve microclimate to make the area
cooler. Other than that, customers can go for
classes that cover a wide range of health-related
topics, such as perform yoga, meditation and
breathing exercises on the rooftop. The purpose
of this concept is to provide an escape area for a
moment of peace after hardcore workouts or in an
otherwise busy and stressful day.
12

13. PROJECT PROPOSAL
After carrying out the site visit and SWOT
analysis, I discovered the strength,
weakness, opportunity and threats of this
site. I also studied about the facilities nearby
and the potential of the site. There are a lot
of residential areas surrounding this
location, but there is no main ftness centre
besides the driving range just right next to
the site. Hence, after careful considerations, I’ve decided to propose
the empty land into a commercial area which will be a ftness centre. It
will be named as the “Empire Fitness Centre”. There will be six foors
including a garden on the rooftop. It will be a benefcial place to
residents that suits their needs as an individual since everyone has
their own needs when it comes to maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
Besides, the goal of my proposed ftness centre is to enhance the
quality of ones health through ftness. By this mean, the residents
living around won’t have to travel far just to workout. All they have to
do is just to walk or drive for several minutes and there they are, the
perfect place for them to sweat it off.

Empire indoor trampoline park is about being active
because you are burning calories with every jump. It’s
about experiencing the freedom of jumping, which
actually helps get your body in better shape. It is also
that exhilarating feeling of accomplishment you get
from just an hour of wall-to-wall fun. Burn up to 1,000
calories an hour. The park is flled with 10,000 foam
sponges and there will be tons of different types of
workouts customers can join in.
BENEFITS
Getting to the gym can be a challenge for the ones who do
not workout often, but this trampoline park makes exercise
a joy! Bouncing uses almost every muscle and focuses
specifcally on the stomach, arms and legs. Start toning
your muscles, burning fat and increasing your metabolism
by having fun! To promote cardiovascular health, young
people need at least one and a half hours of intense
physical activity per day. Regular bouncing helps tone the
body, especially the stomach, back, and legs. Core stability
muscles are consistently engaged to help enhance
balance. This type of training helps boost your metabolic
rate and the ability to burn fat and calories.

ROOFTOP GARDEN
There are many benefts of a rooftop garden
beyond the fact that they can be quiet retreats. They
add another dimension of green space to an urban
scape without taking up an extensive area of land in
densely populated places.These relatively simple
changes to rooftops can greatly beneft our urban
areas. Here are some examples of the advantages of
rooftop gardens: Green roofs can help in the
absorption of carbon dioxide and help reduce air
pollution,economically, there are no additional land
costs and temperatures around the building can be
lowered in the summer. Therefore, I have
implemented this idea into my proposal. There will also be a:
YOGA PIT
Customers can go for classes that cover a wide
range of health-related topics, such as perform
yoga, meditation and breathing exercises on the
rooftop. The purpose of this concept is to provide

23. THE RATIONALE
After studying the facilities nearby and the potential of the site, i've noticed that there
are a lot of residential areas surrounding this location, but there is no main ftness centre
besides the driving range just right next to the site. Hence, after careful considerations,
I’ve decided to propose a ftness centre because It will be a benefcial place to residents
that suits their needs as an individual since everyone has their own needs when it comes
to maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
Other than that, to enhance the quality of the resident's health and lifestyle through
ftness. By this mean, the residents living around won’t have to travel far just to workout.
All they have to do is just to walk or drive for several minutes and there they are, the
perfect place for them to sweat it off.
PROJECT BENEFITS AND IMPACTS
From this project, there are ample of positive effects and impacts to the community, a
person's health and also the environment. I have analysed as listed below to ensure this
project will be benefcial and functional in the future.
COMMUNITY BENEFITS:
A ftness centre wil give communities an important identity. Well-maintained, accessible
place and ftness facilities are key elements of safe, strong, family-friendly communities.
Other than that, Citizens’ qualities of health improves when they are welcomed to a
more healthier life through ftness.Furthermore,exercising reduces depression,
alienation, loneliness, and anti-social behaviour.Last but not least, ftness centre provide
opportunities that encourage citizens to get involved in sports to be more productive
and health-conscious.
23

24. HEALTH BENEFITS:
Citizens will then have proper facilities to exercise that leads to a healthier lifestyles for
people from every age range. Other than that, strong evidence shows that when people
go to ftness centres, they exercise more because they will have motivation looking at
others leading a healthy life through ftness. In addition, in every time sedentary people
walk a mile on a threadmill or exercise, they add 21 minutes to their life. On average,
every hour they spend exercising increases their life expectancy by two hours. Exercise
also increases the brain’s capacity for learning and developing skills. Physical activities
such as jogging, wall climbing and skating can improve mental health effectively.
ECONOMIC BENEFITS:
Fitness centres enhance property values, contribute to healthy and productive
workforces and help attract and retain businesses.A ftness centre can facilitate and
make communities desirable places to live, work, play and visit.They motivate business
relocation and expansion in the community.
ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS:
While this project will emphasis on being environmentally friendly. A rooftop garden is
implementef. Rooftop gardens help improve microclimate to make the area cooler.
Here are some examples of the advantages of rooftop gardens: Green roofs can help in
the absorption of carbon dioxide and help reduce air pollution,economically, there are
no additional land costs and temperatures around the building can be lowered in the
summer. Therefore, it brings benefts to the environment.

25. PROJECT MANAGEMENT TASK
Professions involved in this project :
1) Architect
2) Landscape Architect
3) Quantity Surveyor
4) Civil Engineer
5) Mechanical Engineer
6) Electrical Engineer
7) Contractor
1. ARCHITECT
An architect is someone who designs, and is specifcally trained and licensed to work on
the planning and design of buildings. The facets of an architect's role are as varied and
fascinating as their work; these are professionals who lead the process of creating
functional spaces, from concept and design to a full realization of those designs.
Therefore, as a leader of various projects, from something as small as an addition to
someone's home, to something as large as a hospital, college campus, or an entire
neighbourhood, the role of an architect is to bring together the creative ideas and
visions of the client and keep in mind the needs of those that will be using the new
space.An architect is not just involved in the design of a building. As a licensed
professional they are also responsible for public safety and overseeing of projects. Their
role is important in every stage of the building's construction, from the initial concept to
the opening ceremony when the building is complete. Beyond completion, an architect
often remains involved in a project as buildings evolve to incorporate new surroundings
and ideas. The aspects of work can be split into three main roles or phases- the design,
documentation and construction roles. In the design role, an architect is hired by a client
to produce detailed designs of a concept or idea that the client wants to bring to reality.
As well as needing creative design ideas, this part of the role involves a great deal of
technical knowledge and responsibility. There is a need to comply with building and
safety regulations, local planning regulations and restrictions. Depending on the project
there may be laws surrounding the preservation of the local environment or any historic
parts of a building. Regular client meetings are important to establish requirements and
discuss detailed design proposals.
25

26. 2. LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT
Landscape architects are the people that beautify the areas around public and private
buildings. Golf courses, parks, and public gardens with beautiful fowers and stonework
are the fnished products of a talented landscape and garden architect. These artists
create breathtaking outdoor places by using fowers, trees, stone, fountains, sidewalks,
and pathways as well as other structures to complement each other. People in this
profession will create the layouts for popular arboretums and public walking trails.
Whimsical, fun playgrounds are also designed by these outdoor architects. Landscape
architects work with their clients to meet the end result the client would like to see for
their plot of land. No matter how big or small the plot, landscape architects can turn a
bland piece of earth into something marvelous.. The job of the architect is to come up
with the vision for the space and draw up the plans in explicit detail so they can be easily
read and followed by other workers. Landscape architects design the aesthetic layout of
golf courses and shopping malls as well as other public places. They can also be hired
privately to design the landscaping of homes and gardens. Landscape architects can
also choose to work in the environmental feld designing conservation lands, such as
wetlands, and participating in historic restoration endeavors. Though it is a large part of
the job, landscape architecture isn’t all about the aesthetics. Architects must also take
the environment into consideration, as well as the budget of the people they are
designing the garden or landscaping for.
3. QUANTITY SURVEYOR
A quantity surveyor manages all costs relating to building and civil engineering projects,
from the initial calculations to the fnal fgures. Surveyors seek to minimise the costs of a
project and enhance value for money, while still achieving the required standards and
quality. Many of these are specifed by statutory building regulations, which the
surveyor needs to understand and adhere to. A quantity surveyor may work for either
the client or the contractor, working in an offce or on site. They are involved in a project
from the start, preparing estimates and costs of the work. When the project is in
progress, quantity surveyors keep track of any variations to the contract that may affect
costs and create reports to show proftability. The title of the job may also be referred to
as a construction cost consultant or commercial manager.
26

27. 4.CIVIL ENGINEER
A civil engineer works in engineering areas in overseeing, designing and planning
construction and maintenance of building structures and/or facilities, like, irrigation
projects, power plants, bridges and other sites. They inspect work sites to ensure
conformance to safety and design specifcations and monitor progress of the project.
They give estimates of cost materials and quantities or the project site's maintenance.
They can provide the technical advice needed for structural repairs, program
modifcations or regarding design. A civil engineer would determine the strength and
adequacy of steel, foundations, asphalt or concrete by testing materials or soils. In
determining design specifcations to material stress factors or water fow rates they
would grade and compute load requirements. A civil engineer uses design software
and drawing tools to follow construction and/or government standards in designing
and planning hydraulic systems or transportation and structures. They analyze aerial
photography, geologic data, maps, blueprints and other types of reports and surveys to
plan projects. He or she would sometimes give reports on subjects, like, environmental
impact statements, bid proposals or other public reports.
5.MECHANICAL ENGINEER
Mechanical engineers are typically involved with the generation, distribution, and use of
energy; the processing of materials; the control and automation of manufacturing
systems; the design and development of machines; and the solutions to environmental
problems. Research, testing manufacturing, operations, marketing, and administration
are some other key activities associated with practicing Mechanical Engineers.
Mechanical engineers are characterized by personal creativity, breadth of knowledge,
and versatility. They are also valuable and reliable multidisciplinary team members. The
technical subject areas that form the main basis for their work include mechanics,
energy transfer and conversion, design and manufacturing, and the engineering
sciences. Through clever use of analysis, modeling, design, and synthesis, they solve
important problems to improve quality of life. Mechanical engineers work on teams
responsible for developing a wide range of products and systems including, for
example, space shuttle vehicles, aircraft of all sizes and shapes, automobiles, turbines,
pumps, power plants, and factories. Virtually any machine or process you can think of
has benefted from the infuence of a mechanical engineer. Everyday conveniences such
as refrigeration, microwave cooking, high-fdelity sound reproduction, transportation,
communication, and copying are affordable largely because mechanical and other
engineers worked together to make it happen. Mechanical engineers are in demand
now, and projections for the future suggest a long-term need for professionals in this
specialty.
27

28. 6.ELECTRICAL ENGINEER
An electrical engineer is someone who designs and develops new electrical equipment,
solves problems and tests equipment. They work with all kinds of electronic devices,
from the smallest pocket devices to large supercomputers. Electrical engineering deals
with electricity, electro-magnetism and electronics. It also covers power, control
systems, telecommunications and signal processing. These engineers are usually
concerned with large-scale electrical systems such as motor control and power
transmission, as well as utilizing electricity to transmit energy. Electrical engineers may
work on a diverse range of technologies, from the design of household appliances,
lighting and wiring of buildings, telecommunication systems, electrical power stations
and satellite communications. They may plan their designs using computer-aided
software or they may also sketch ideas by hand. Electrical engineers work on a variety of
projects, such as computers, robots, cell phones, cards, radars, navigation systems,
wiring and lighting in buildings and other kinds of electrical systems. Electrical
engineers start out a project by defning what a new electronics should be able to do.
They will then design the circuits and parts of the electronics using a computer. They will
create a prototype and test the product to improve it. Most products do not work
initially or have some bugs that need to be fxed. The electrical engineer needs to fgure
out the problem and make the product work.
7.CONTRACTOR
A contractor is a manager, and possibly a tradesman, employed by the client on the advice of
the architect,engineer or the architectural technologist,or the client him/herself if acting as the
manager. A contractor is responsible for the overall coordination of a project. A general
contractor must frst assess the project-specifc documents referred as a proposal. In the case of
renovations, a site visit is required to get a better understanding of the project. Depending on
the project delivery method, the contractor will submit a fxed price proposal or bid, cost plus
price or an estimate. The contractor considers the cost of home offce overhead, general
conditions, materials and equipment as well as the cost of labor to provide the owner with a
price for the project. Contract documents include drawings, project manual (including general,
supplementary and/or special conditions and specifcations), addendum or modifcations issued
prior to proposal/ bidding and prepared by a design professional such as an architect. The
general contractor may be the construction manager or construction manager at risk. Other
than that, they are responsible for providing all of the material, labor, equipment such as
engineering vehicles and tools and ervices necessary for the construction of the project. The
general contractor hires specialized subcontractors to perform all or portions of the construction
work. Responsibilities may include applying for building permits, securing the property,
providing temporary utilities on site, managing personnel on site, providing site surveying and
engineering, disposing or recycling of construction waste, monitoring schedules and cash fows.‪

NAME OF PROJECT:
SERENE CENTER
NAME:
MELARIE MANDY DONOUGH
STUDENT ID:
0323660

31. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Among the list of possible functions of the land, I have chosen to
develop a small recreational area on the piece of vacant area. The
main reason I chose to develop the vacant land into a recreational
area is because the land is located within a residential area,
commercial area and a driving ranch which is located opposite of the
piece of vacant land.
After site analysis, possible ideas and concepts that focus on
recreation and relaxation functions are conducted. I propose to build
an eco-friendly indoor pool centre named Serene Centre. It is to be
constructed for the benefts of locals and tourists to come relax and
enjoy themselves with the facilities that will be provided indoors and
outdoors.
Taking inspirational designs of the layout of Serene Centre from the
internet and magazines I have chose to design an eco-friendly indoor
pool centre with solar panels installed to conserve electricity and also
regulate the temperature indoors. The building will be designed with
clear glass as the back wall and windows on the top of the side walls.
Abasement carpark will be buillt under the building. Visitors can take
the lift up to the indoor pool level.
31

32. CONCEPT AND INSPIRATIONAL IMAGES
The following concepts will be combined in the proposed site:
INDOOR POOL
The indoor pool centre is a place where people can come and enjoy
themselves inside rather than the outside when the days are too hot
for us to take a dip in the pool outside. This is a place where kids and
families can splash around in the pool. Kids pool will be installed too
for the safety of the children.
32

33. SAUNA
Sauna rooms are provided for female and male respectively. People
can use the sauna for relax and also for health benefts by raising the
room tempertaure and humidity.
ROOFTOP GARDEN
A rooftop garden is a garden on top of the building. Rooftop garden
serves lots of beneft purpose such as decorative beneft, temperature
control, recreational opportunities and many more. Parents who are
waiting for their children who are swimming below can come up here
to wait and relax. People can also come up here for some packed
lunch during lunch time.
33

34. PROJECT ADVANTAGES
The Serene Centre needs to be able to beneft the client and also the
surrounding community and also deliver the following elements and
charactheristics:
BONDING TIME
The proposed project site allows families and friends to come
together to enjoy each others company which can strengthen their
bond by spending together.
HEALTH MAINTENANCE
It is an advantage for the people who rarely have the time to exercise
on a regular basis in the hustle and bustle of the city life by
constructing a recreation area like the Serene Centre. The community
can maintain their health by conducting physical exercise indoors. The
saunas provided in Serene Centre also serves health beneft purpose
for the visitors.
SECURITY
To ensure the safety of the community, the area will be fenced to
prevent unwanted accidetnts to occur. 24 hour surveillance camera
will be installed around the compound. Fire alarm will be installed
indoors for possible fre occurance. Lifeguards will be on duty during
open hours and the pool centre will provide frst aid kits for injuries.

As the project bring positivity upon building an indoor pool cantre, it
will also cause negative impact. In order to ensure that the project will
be functional for the future, the following elements and characteristics
will be taken to account:
ENVIRONMENT
As an increase amount of people coming and going from Serene
Centre, some inconsiderate people will be throwing waste around the
area causing cluster of rubbish accumulating in the area. The increase
in traffc fow will cause the environment condition to worsen as the
cars produces smoke that are harmful to the environment.
TRAFFIC JAM
Increase in traffc will occur as there is only one route to Serene Centre
and also one route out of Serene Centre. Accidents and bad weather
can also increase the traffc jam.
PEOPLE
A school is located nearby and students might skip school and come
to Serene Centre without parental supervision or awareness. The
people will also be spending quite a lot of money by coming to the
indoor pool centre frequently.

36. PROJECT OBJECTIVES
INDOOR
The main role of the indoor facilty is to enable to community to come
and enjoy themselves in the pool without worrying about their safety
and also the weather. During operating hours, the general manager
will make sure everything runs smoothly and the needs of the visitors
will be attended to.
OUTDOORS
The purpose of the rooftop garden is to enable the visitors to be able
to enjoy the natural environment provided. The increase of the
softscape reduces the negative impact of the urban development.

37. RATIONALE
The project is built to cater to the people's enjoyment and health
purpose. The design of the building is to built an eco-friendly building
that bring as little harm to the environment as little as possible and,
also in which we could beneft from. A sustainable building that is
energy effcient. An extraordinary experience cannot only be built in
the walls of our home, school or offce, we can also create memories
and strengthen the relationship between each other with outdoor
curriculum activities. It is also about the relationship that we can built
with the nature. It is for that reason that Serene Center was built to
implement the beauty of nature and also to maintain a healty lifestyle.
As most of the people who lives in the hustle and bustle of the city, we
rarely get the chance to get a chance of regular exercise. By building a
recreation area nearby residential areas, I would like to give the
people an opportunity to promote a more healthy lifestyle. I want to
create a space with an atmosphere that provides the most relaxing,
enjoyable experience for the visitors. And also providing facilties for
the visitors to be comfortable and safe in Serene Center.
To fulfll my objective of proposing this idea of creating a recreation
area at my project site, I would like to re-introduce a healthy lifestyle
for the community of Subang Jaya through the creation of Serene
Centre.

43. PARKING AREA
In order to ease the traffc condition, an underground basement
parking will be built under the building. With the parking built
underground the visitors will not park their cars outside by the main
road which will cause traffc. The entrance of the parking will be on the
east side of the building and the exit will be on the west side as there
is only a single fow of traffc direction on the main road.
It is also safer to park in the underground basement parking as there
will be security doing rounds from time to time to make sure that the
area is safe and the vehicles are not disturbed.
PARKING TICKET SYSTEM
A parking ticket system will be incorporated in the building. Visitors
will have to collect a parking ticket at the entrance before entering the
