ASSIGNMENT 1

COLLABORATIVE BIM PROJECT

 

In this project, as a member of a multidisciplinary design team, our task is to develop a schematic building design proposal, adhering to the client's request to implement Building Information Modelling (BIM) for the design process. This involves planning and executing work tasks, assigning roles and responsibilities, and managing BIM coordination and design optimization.

​
Objective:
Our goal is to provide the client with an accurate, efficient, and well-structured set of information. This will help the client make informed decisions, understand the design process, and ensure that the building can be maintained and operated efficiently in the future. By demonstrating our competency in collaborative work, we aim to increase productivity, optimize building performance, minimize risks, and reduce construction waste. The project will be developed and completed based on the allocated roles and responsibilities, with a focus on improving energy performance and constructability.​​

Design Brief:​

In collaboration with Think City Malaysia, the Kuala Lumpur City Council (DBKL) has invited qualified multidisciplinary consortiums to bid for a schematic design development proposal. The project encompasses the development of two residential blocks and the renovation of an existing community surau at Lot 4537, PPR Seri Chempaka, Jalan Kampung Pasir, Kuala Lumpur.

​

Project Overview:​

​

  • Project Components:

    1. Residential Quarters:

      • Two 4-storey residential blocks, with each level containing two apartment units.

      • Each apartment unit is capped at a maximum built-up area of 100 sqm, comprising a living hall, dining area, three bedrooms, and two toilets.

      • The design will include services and circulation spaces such as service risers, toilets, fire access, balconies, and corridors, ideally making up 30% of the Gross Floor Area (GFA).

      • Ground floor supporting spaces will include a retail space, kindergarten, and public toilets, designed with a focus on energy efficiency and green building principles, benchmarked against standards like MS1525: 2019.

      • A common vehicle drop-off area will be included, with no dedicated parking space required.

    2. Community Surau Renovation:

      • The surau, located at PPR Chempaka Ria (Block E), will be renovated to accommodate 100-150 people.

      • Design enhancements will focus on improving natural lighting, adding storage space, and optimizing the preparation and ablution areas.

      • The community hall section will undergo reconfiguration to include better storage and preparation areas, addressing issues of dull lighting.

​

Scope and Collaboration:

  • The project is divided into two packages, with each residential block assigned to a different architect group from the consortium.

  • The renovation of the community surau will be divided into two sections: the surau space and the community hall, each handled by the consortium members.

​

Objective:

The project aims to create a functional, sustainable, and energy-efficient residential and community space. The residential quarters are designed to meet the needs of the residents while adhering to green building standards. The surau renovation will enhance the space’s usability, lighting, and functionality, contributing to the overall community experience.
