OF THE SITE
3. Introduction
We are required to find a specific empty land to initiate a small
construction project. The size of the land shall between 50m x 50m (2500m2)
– 50m x 70m (3500m2).
Individually, we have to propose one project that serves on any one or
combination of two or more of the following purposes: Recreation area,
Commercial area, Industrial area, Agricultural area, Tourism area, Residential
area. Subsequently, we are required to identify the professions required in our
development. Besides that, we need to list down the tasks each profession
needs to do.
This project enabled us to develop an understanding of the building
team, its organization, duties and inter-relations. In addition, it also enabled
us to develop an awareness of their professional responsibilities and to
appreciate their profession in the construction industry.

4. Objective
The objective of this project is to provide convenience to residents living
around the site. Residents do not need to go a commercial shop or a place to
do recreational activities by car. They just need to go to the spot by walking
within 4 minutes.
Project Benefits
Commercial areas enabled people to reduce stress and relax. Positive
and enjoyable recreation experiences can decrease stress and psychological
tensions. Leisure activities provide people with the opportunity to expel
energy and emotion not being released in other aspects of their lives.
Recreation area creates an opportunity to people to control weight,
look better, and build strong bodies. Sports participants had significantly
lower body mass index values, lower blood pressures, and lower resting pulse
rates. In addition, people who exercised regularly were happier than people
who didn’t exercise at all. Besides that, family bonds are improved by the
sharing of leisure time. Families that recreate together tend to be closer, more
cohesive and improve their chances of staying together. This is true with both
parent-child relationships and married couples. One can meet friends and
create memories too. People can develop social skills, problem solving and
creativity. The best opportunities are those that are planned and supervised.
For children, physical activity is intellectually stimulating and enhances the
learning process and the development of cognitive skills.

5. Introduction to Site
The undeveloped empty land that we have looked upon is located at
Jalan Kemajuan Subang. It is approximately 26,896 Sq.Ft. There are greenery
and woody trees on the empty land.
In addition, there are several residential areas located near to our site
and there are two apartments which is Subang Soho and Olives residence are
just opposite to our site. Besides that, there is one primary school, Sekolah
Kebangsaan Perdana Jaya near to the site as well. It is a great area to be
developed since it is near to residential areas and school.
Some commercial shops such as 7-Eleven, stationary stores as well as
food court and recreation area such as sports complex should be built within
this area in order to bring convenience to people. Hence, this empty land has
high potential to become a successful recreation and commercial spot in the
future.

people can enjoy the view of the sunrise and sunset. The wind direction is

13. Ambience
There is little to none traffic noises as there is only a highway located quite a
distance away.
Pros and Cons
The land is surrounded by residential area and industrial area. Furthermore, it
is lacking of commercial and recreation area. Hence, this empty land has high
potential to become a successful recreation and commercial spot. Residents
can walk or go by bicycle to the spot.

also available there. There are also a music centers, a golf center and more.
The site has a lack of proper waste management as seen by garbage being
seen around the site. There are also no office and commercial blocks built

road.
