*KINDLY CLICK THE TITLE 'PROJECT 1 - CASE STUDY: BUILDING SERVICES IN THE PAM CENTRE' FOR THE PROJECT' 1'S BRIEF

THIS GROUP PROJECT REQUIRES US TO CONDUCT A CASE STUDY ON BUILDING SERVICES SYSTEMS APPLIED AND INSTALLED IN MULTI-STOREY BUILDINGS. WE CHOSE THE PAM CENTRE, BANGSAR AS A CHOICE OF STUDY. THE RATIONAL BEHIND IT WAS BECAUSE THE BUILDING HAS A RAW AND INDUSTRIAL FINISH WHICH WOULD HAVE MOST OF ITS SERVICES EXPOSED FOR AN EASIER IDENTIFICATION FOR CONDUCTING THE STUDY. WE WERE EXPOSED TO MANY COMMONLY USED BUILDING SERVICES. THIS RESEARCH STUDY HAS BROADENED OUR UNDERSTANDING ON THE APPLICATION OF BUILDING SERVICES TO MAKE THE BUILDING TECHNICALLY FUNCTIONAL. HAVING A BACKGROUND IN THE FIELD WHILE I WAS PRACTICING AS A PROJECT ARCHITECT, I HAVE ATTAINED VARIOUS INFORMATION REGARDING THE GENERAL BUILDING SERVICES IN A LARGE BUILDING. THE PAM CENTRE HAS STRENGTHENED THE CONFIDENCE IN THE INFORMATION I HAVE GATHERED IN THE PAST YEARS BY PHYSICALLY WITNESSING CERTAIN BUILDING SERVICES WHILE I WAS CONDUCTING THE STUDY ON THE PAM CENTRE. A REPORT WAS THEN CREATED WITH THE COMPILATION OF INFORMATION COVERING FIRE PROTECTIONS SYSTEMS, MECHANICAL VENTILATION SYSTEMS, AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEMS, MECHANICAL TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS, MECHANICAL PARKING SYSTEMS, AND SAFETY SYSTEMS.
