Project 1 :Experiencing Construction: Experiencing,
documentation and analysing CONSTRUCTION
PROCESS (Group Work)
Introduction:
This project required us, group of 8, to visit an ongoing construction site to identify different types of building elements and its construction process, details and materials. We are also required to study and record construction of different building elements that we have learnt in this module.
We went to 3 different construction sites to carry out our studies. 3 of the sites are in different state of construction, which are the initial state, middle state and almost the final state. We are so lucky that the project managers kindly gave us much basic and useful information of construction and some experiences are shared as well. I was assigned to do the introduction.
Here are some photo on site:

Reflection：
This is the first time i went to site for a long period for research. I learn a lot on the construction method and tools/ machine. the contractor teach us a lot and share his experience with us. its really a nice project.
Project 2: Integrated Construction Detailing/ Drawings (Individual)
Introduction:
This project is integrated with Architecture Design Studio 2. We are required to identify and propose 3 architectural detailing of the building we designed and hand drawn it on one piece of A2 size paper.
Reflection:
I choose the canopy detail, glass wall and roof, and the spiral stair. they have detail construction method for me to learn. In this project, i ask some senior for the detail and learn from there, really impress after got the research.
