Building Construction and Materials

Lecturers: Mr. Azim Sulaiman, Dr. Sujatavani, and Ar. Edwin Chan

Tutor: Ar. Edwin Chan

From their manufacture and type to their practical function and characteristics, this module helped us better understand the materials used in construction. Through the past weeks, we've learned how to judge a material's architectural and structural use more wisely.

Famous Architect’s building

Materials Application: Architectural and Structural

This assignment required each of us to choose a renowned architect's building and analyze its use of materials. My choice was Kengo Kuma's Asakusa Culture and Tourist Information Centre.

02

Construction Detailing of Building Elements

In a group of 5 or more, we had to modify and detail the construction required of a previous project in ADII. The design we chose was "Echoes of Light" by some fellow coursemates.
