INTRODUCTION TO PROJECT:
In this project, we are tasked to commence a small
construction project in Taylor’s University Lakeside
Campus. We are to use a land area of about
10mx10m anywhere on campus ground.
As we have decided to construct a rest area, the
small project that we are commencing is the
construction of a Taxi Stand. The construction of
this project will take place at an empty space
beside the Food Arena food court. A 10mx10m
area will be taken from that open space.

TAYLORS UNIVERSITY ICI FINAL PROJECT
1969 as a college, was awarded university college
status in 2006, and university status in 2010.
Taylor's University offers courses in tertiary
education, from foundation and diploma to degree,
post-graduate and professional programmes.
The Lakeside Campus houses all existing tertiary
programmes under one roof. Set on 27 acres of
tropical greenery near Jalan PJS 7/5, the campus is
surrounded by a revived 5.5 acre man-made lake,
as well as a landscape of water plants, trees and
flowering shrubs, and groundcover that provides a
rich and stimulating natural environment in the

neighbourhood.
SITE ANALYSIS:
The site that is selected to construct this Taxi
Stand located at the open space beside Arena Food
Court which is located inside the commercial block
of TAYLORS UNIVERSITY LAKESIDE CAMPUS.
The open space beside the food court measures
approximately 30x100m and to construct this taxi
stand, only 10mx10m of the entire space will be
used. This is to ensure that the open space is not
completely affected to maintain its aesthetics.
The site is covered by glass roofing and the floor is
covered with masonry flooring. There is also a 24-
hour security office nearby for safety.

Commercial activities include the buying and
selling of goods and services in retail businesses,
wholesale buying and selling, financial
establishments, and wide variety of services that
are broadly classified as "business".
Even though commercial activities use only a
small amount of land, they are extremely
important to a community’s economy.
Some examples of commercial area buildings
include the following:
Bank Gas station
Grocery store
Movie theatre

THE TAXI STAND
This is a revolutionary taxi stand that offers a
waiting /resting lounge, office space, lavatory and
also gadget charging stations for all mobile
devices. This is the result of incorporating universal
language and modern technology.
Electrical and lighting systems are assembled
within the installation floor, which is hidden,
between ceiling and the roof that can help improve
its aesthetic value. Other than that there is a
system that is in place to collect rainwater and use
it within the infrastructure.
PURPOSE AND CONCEPT
10
TAYLORS UNIVERSITY ICI FINAL PROJECT
The aim of constructing this taxi stand is to allow
people to wait for their taxi at the commercial
block in a more comfortable and stylish manner as
there is a choice of sitting in the modern designed
air-conditioned waiting lounge or the non-air-
conditioned lounge.
Continuously, the taxi stand also has a mini
vertical garden that serves it purpose to help
improve the environment. Not only that, this taxi
stand also offers taxi-booking services to ease the
amount of waiting time. Other than that, the taxi
stand also has a gadget charging station for all
mobile devices.
As mentioned above, this project will be
constructed at the commercial block. Since the
commercial has many people coming in and out, it
will make a huge amount of difference for the
people that are frequently traveling by taxi and will
make a perfect resting area for not only the
passengers but also for the taxi drivers.

MATERIALS
1)Recycled steel

TAYLORS UNIVERSITY ICI FINAL PROJECT
Recycling steel reduces the consumption of other
valuable resources. Every ton of recycled steel
saves 1.5 tons of iron ore, .5 tons of coal and 40
percent of the water normally used in the
production process
2) Recycled Wood/Plastic Composite Lumber
15
TAYLORS UNIVERSITY ICI FINAL PROJECT
Composite lumber is a material that is a mixture
of wood fiber, plastic, and some type of binding
agent. These ingredients are put together to form
a material that is denser, stronger, and heavier
than wood alone, a wood-plastic composite.
3)Low-E Glass
16
TAYLORS UNIVERSITY ICI FINAL PROJECT
The "E" in low-E stands for emissivity, and a clear
coating of metallic oxide on these windows keeps
the heat inside the house in the winter and outside
in the summer.
4)LED Lights
17
TAYLORS UNIVERSITY ICI FINAL PROJECT
An LED lamp is a light-emitting diode (LED) product
that is assembled into a lamp (or light bulb) for use
in lighting fixtures. LED lamps have a lifespan
and electrical efficiency that is several times better
than incandescent lamps, and significantly better
than most fluorescent lamps, with some chips able
to emit more than 100 lumens per watt.

TAYLORS UNIVERSITY ICI FINAL PROJECT
In conclusion, the taxi stand is very convenient for
the people in tailors lakeside university especially
when public holiday and Sunday. The people who
want to take a taxi can wait in comfort and style.
Although it is just 10m x 10m but it already help
the people a lot in terms of time saving and rest.
Also, people can charge their mobile devices and
be at ease. We hope that by constructing this taxi
stand, we can help reduce the burden of the
people in Taylor’s lakeside university and make it a
better place for people to visit and be known as a
world-class education hub.
