26. 1. Introduction to case study
The case study we chosen is a two storey
bungalow, located in Kuala Terengganu. The
bungalow is owned by current MB (menteri besar) of
Terengganu, Designed by LWC architect.
A pond is place in the middle of the
bungalow as the genius loci of the building
surrounded by all other space such as living room,
dining, bedroom and etc. the pond also act as
cooling strategy of the building other than its
aesthetic value which enhance the comfort of the
users.
we had studied and analyzed architectural
plans from the architect and came up with structural
plans which indicating the position of columns, beam
and slabs.

Through this project, we had learnt a lot of
the structural design, not only drawing it yet proving
with mathematic formula and diagrams. We also
explored possibility of different type placement of
columns and beams that not only affecting the safety
yet aesthetic and comfort for the user experience.
We also learnt how the load are transferred
from top to the bottom until the ground, identifying
those structural members and understanding how
the force is acting on the structural members whether
is it capable to withstand ideal amount of load with
the space we designed.
we are grateful for the experience and the
opportunity to explore the structural members of the
building and will apply in our work in future.
