This project involves proposing efficient building services systems for a high-rise building at Taylor’s University to support student and staff safety and convenience. The building design incorporates zones for parking, classrooms, lecture theatres, and accommodation. The assignment focuses on integrating key services such as mechanical ventilation, centralized air-conditioning, fire protection (active and passive), and mechanical transportation. Students form groups to develop schematic designs, including detailed floor plans, elevations, and sections for specified areas. Deliverables include system drawings, functional explanations, reasons for placement, and visualizations. Precedent studies support proposals without being directly included in the report. The project emphasizes understanding building services principles, statutory requirements, and practical integration to ensure energy efficiency and public safety. The final A3 report includes analysis, diagrams, and references, showcasing the rationale and impact of the proposed systems on building functionality and aesthetics.
