Introduction
The project is an integrated component where it involves structural theory, force calculation and basic structural proposal. This project is designed to allow the demonstration of knowledge and understanding of building structure
- Identify and quantify the load acting on the structure. Analyse the structure.
- To analysis minimum 6 beams (each beam must subject to different types of load, i.e. UDL from one or more than one slabs, beam with point load(s) or combination of UDL and PL)
- To analysis minimum 4 columns (from roof to foundation level)
The objectives of this project are as follows:
- To introduce the basic process of building structures design process to the students.- To enable the students to have a holistic experience including Concept and Structure Layout Design, Building Structure Engineering Considerations, Structure Members Sizing and Calculations, Final Report and Presentation.
Task
Group
Working in a group of 8 members, each group is to obtain floor plan of a maximum 3 storeys bungalow, preferably 2 storeys. Students are required to carry out structural framing and prepare structural drawings for the bungalow. Structural plans should include foundation plan, ground floor plan, first floor plan and roof plan.
Individual
Understanding of structural analysis which inclusive the following : - 20%
- Ability to Identify and quantify loads acting on beams and columns
- Understanding of structural analysis
- Ability to choose the appropriate member size

Reflection
This is one of the most challenging project because we really have to understand the topics well so that we can deal with the calculations as there are a lot of different kind of questions, which we have to analyse ourselves on how to solve it. Not only that, this project also taught me how the structure of a building actually works to make it sustainable as this is very important for architecture because safety always comes first.
