PROJECT 1: SKELETAL CONSTRUCTION (TEMPORARY BUS SHELTER)
In a group of 5 - 6 people, we are required to design a temporary bus shelter where it can accommodate around 5-6 people with a max height of 600mm and a base of 400mmx800mm. The main aim for this project is to demonstrate the knowledge of skeletal frame and its joints. It must clearly define all the building components such as roofs, columns, walls and floors. We were given several shapes to choose from, which in our case, we chose the prism and cuboid.

PROJECT 2 : UNDERSTANDING FORCES IN BUILDING CONSTRUCTION
In this project, a group of 2 is formed. We have to propose a building, be it tensile or grid, then identify the structural system used in the construction of the building. Throughout this project, we will be able to identify the basic structural systems in a construction. And also differentiate in terms of loads and forces acting on structural elements. Last, we will be able to analyse the issues of strength, stiffness and stability of structure including modes of structural systems, forces, stress and strain and laws of static. We chose the grid system, and the analysed building would be the Manheimm Multihalle by Frei Otto.
