Building Services 1

Building Services 1

Building service considered a new subject for me in my semester 2, and I must pass this subject to continue Building services 2 in my next semester. Miss Mariatul Liza Bt Meor Gheda. This subject is about services that are usually provided in a building, which are ventilation system, telecommunication services, storm water management cold and hot water supply, and sewerage disposal and treatment. We also have Illustrate services construction in schematic diagrams during our lecture so that we can have more clearer picture in our mind how the services work in a building. Before this, I have no idea how the installation process of those services work, but now I finally have some ideas how the installation process work in a building. By now, I am able to distinguish and differentiate the installation of various types of services in a building.

During the week that we were learning storm water management this topic, our lecturer, Miss Mariatul Liza has brought us to visit the SMART tunnel in Malaysia so that we can have better understanding about the management process of storm water in our country. Basically, SMART stands for  Stormwater Management and Road Tunnel. It is to solve the problem of flash floods in Kuala Lumpur and also to reduce traffic jams along Jalan Sungai Besi and Loke Yew flyover at Pudu during rush hour. The SMART is the  first dual-purpose tunnel in the world, so we should appreciate it and be proud of our our country. 

For the assignment of this subject, we are asked to form a group of five members in a group in order to complete our group assignment. The topic of my group assignment is " The integration of communications networks in the intelligent building". For this group assignment, we need to prepare a multimedia presentation so that the other groups which were doing another topic can have the opportunity to have the knowledge of the topic that our group has covered.
