PROJECT 6: INTEGRATED PROJECT: DESIGN & BUILD ‘AN AMPHITHEATRE STAGE (Project 6b: Project Report)

• Each group is required to prepare two types of project report for their proposed ‘Amphitheatre Stage’, which are:

1. Progress Report
2. Design Proposal Report (Final Report)

There are many things to be included in these reports.

For the ‘Proposed Design Development’ part, students are encouraged to just reduce the A1 size presentation drawing board to A3 size presentation drawing paper and attached it as Appendix A in the report.  

For the construction method, students need to mention the type (traditional/conventional, modular, IBS, mixed etc.), propose the superstructure and substructure used and explain the rationales why the method of construction is selected.  

For the ‘material selection’, students need to mention the material selected for roof, floor area, stage background (if any) and all applied structures (column, roof structure, shading device, base etc.) together with the detailing of structural joints (3 details). 

 For building services, students should focus on lighting system, sound and Public Address (PA) system. 

 As simple estimation budget for the stage construction, each group need to provide an Elemental Cost Analysis (ECA) that consider the structure, finishes and basic services of their project.  In addition to ECA, each group also needs to provide estimation cost for their physical scale model construction (Model Cost Estimate) of their STAGE.  In the report, each group needs to provide its own project scheduling and management plan. Besides, each group also needs to state the role of each group members, organization chart of the Group and simple gantt chart (reporting on the project). 

From here, I had learnt about many different things in which other courses/major will learn. With this, it enables me to gain more knowledge about it and I believe that it is going to be very useful for me.
