MSSA/CIDB OPEN IDEAS COMPETITION FOR UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS OIC-2015:

“HIGH-RISE RESIDENCE FOR STUDENTS” (HRS)

1.0 INTRODUCTION Welcome to MSSA/CIDB Open Ideas Competition for Undergraduate Students (OIC-2015). The

competition is entitled High-rise Residence for Students, with the acronym HRS.

1.1 Aim of competition

The primary intention of this design competition is to provide students of architecture and structural engineering in Malaysia with the unique opportunity to collaborate in a building design that employs steel as the main structural and finishing material. It is for these architectural and structure engineering students to grasp the fact that building design does not lie within the jurisdiction of the architect or structure engineer individually, but it is a means for them to arrive at a meaningful realization of both architectural fascination and structural manifestation. It aims to bridge the gap between the teaching of architecture and structural engineering. It is also for students to appreciate that the realisation of a building project depends on the work of the various consultants within the project team and not the work of an individual.

1.2 Students’ residence in a university

Most colleges and universities provide single or multiple occupancy rooms for their students, usually at a cost. These buildings consist of many such rooms, like an apartment building, and the number of rooms varies quite widely from just a few to hundreds. College and university residential rooms vary in size, shape, facilities and number of occupants. The largest dormitory building is Bancroft Hall at the United States Naval Academy. Most residence halls are much closer to campus than comparable private housing such as apartment buildings. This convenience is a major factor in the choice of where to live since living physically closer to classrooms is often preferred, particularly for first-year students who may not be permitted to park vehicles on campus.

1.3 Definition of terms Students’ residence is a building primarily providing sleeping and residential quarters for

large numbers of people, often in a boarding school, and for college or university students.

In the United Kingdom, the definition for such a building where university students live is ‘hall of residence’ or simply ‘hall’.

In the United States ‘dormitory’ or ‘dorm’ is the most common term.

1.4 Categories of students At any institution of higher learning there are bound to various categories of students. Their different needs and spatial requirements must be met amidst all kinds of subtlety, nuances, and spatial behaviour. The student categories may be described as below:

Students may be single or married, and those who are married may have families.

In a university that offers both undergraduate and post-graduate courses, students will be of different age groups.

There will be both male and female students. In Malaysia, residence halls are segregated by gender, with men living in one group of rooms, and women in another.

Barrier-free design must be provided for students with disabilities.

Normally university halls cater for regular students without taking into account the special needs of design-based students. This is especially true for those studying architecture whereby the students have their own ‘time zone’ for studying and designing. Therefore, it will be quite a challenge for architecture students themselves to design their own dwellings suited to their spatial needs and requirements. This is not exceptional as University Malaya medical schools provide accommodation specifically for medical students only at its Ibnu Sina college.

1.5 Design objectives

The proposed design should strive to conceive a hall of residence that: • Provides the essential facilities whilst at the same time create an academia with social and

recreational environments governed by by-laws, authority and university’s management requirements.

Supports community living, be almost self-contained, and whereby the organizational patterns include residences and other shared facilities situated together for sociability.

Focuses on functionality in planning; produce innovative solutions that relate to context, scale and building users; emphasize the use of local materials in creating quality spaces; and integration with the site context whilst retaining the natural physical features of the site as much as possible.

Integrated with the community and contribute positively to it. An environment of haven should be created, inspiring and empowering these students into becoming productive and dynamic citizens.

2.0 PROJECT BRIEF OF HRS

2.1 The challenge The challenges in the design of the hall of residence include:

Creatively lay out the overall master plan of the hall of residence,

Comply with the social and religious norms of Malaysian students,

Cater for students with disability/special needs.

Able to be let out to outsiders during semester holidays,

Utilise steel as the main structural and finishing material in an innovative way,

Employ creative use of Industrialized Building System (IBS), and

Incorporate green building strategies (GBI).

2.2 The site Each competing team is to identify its own site within Malaysia. The site area shall be approximately 5 acres. It may be located within the grounds or boundaries of a university, whereby the residents shall be the students of that particular university. Alternatively the site could be centrally located within the vicinity of several universities. In this case the hall provides accommodation for students of varying universities.

2.3 The client If the hall of residence is located on a site that is within the grounds or boundaries of a university, then the university itself shall be the client. Should the hall of residence be located outside and is to serve several universities within the vicinity, then the client shall be an independent developer. The developer shall provide shuttle services for the students to travel back and forth. The competing team shall determine its own developer client.

2.4 Schedule of Accommodation (SoA) Research on students’ requirements and the development of own design brief, with reference to the brief given herewith, is to encourage greater judgement and decision-

making skill. The accommodation to be provided for HRS shall include the following:

To cater for a maximum of 2,500 students.

A mixture of accommodation types for 2 students and 4-5 students; catered and/or self catered student accommodations.

The accommodation typology is open to creativity (Could be apartments with 1, 2 or 3 bedrooms, studio or penthouse apartment, split level, duplex, linked or clustered).

Maximum height of building is 20 storeys.

Have communal open spaces (at least 30% of site) for recreation, play, green or picnic area.

Shared facilities to support students’ life: Study/discussion area, resource/small library, cafe/eating and food preparation area (dining hall/kitchen), praying area, community space, sick bay/medical room and counselling, laundry services area, sundry/stationery shops.

Administration office for 5 staff, maintenance office, storage

ABOUT THE ORGANISERS

The design competition is jointly organised by the CIDB and the MSSA, with CIDB giving substantial funds for the success of the competition including the first prize cash.

MALAYSIAN STRUCTURAL STEEL ASSOCIATION The Malaysian Structural Steel Association, MSSA, was formed 18 years ago

to promote the growth of the structural steel industry through enhancing the perception of structural steel as a construction material and encouraging the usage of steel as the primary building material of choice. The organization supports the interests of the constructional steel and oil and gas industry and its associated professionals. MSSA is made up of engineers, fabricators, contractors, architects, designers, surveyors as well as academics and students from several tertiary institutions in the country. As these individuals and their respective organizations offer much more in terms of diversity and practicality for the local construction industry, MSSA complements these efforts by working to re-define the industry in providing leadership, enhancing standards and improving construction practices at building sites through the use of structural steel.

CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENT BOARD MALAYSIA The Construction Industry Development Board Malaysia, CIDB

Malaysia, was established in July 1994 as a statutory body under the Ministry of Works Malaysia to develop, enhance and increase the competitiveness of the construction industry. The objectives of CIDB Malaysia are to develop the capacity and capability of the construction industry through the enhancement of quality and productivity by placing great emphasis on professionalism, innovation and knowledge in the endeavour to improve the quality of life.
