Introduction
Our case study is a two storey bungalow corner house. It is located at 8, Jalan Pulau
Angsa U10/5A, Puncak Perdana, 40150, Shah Alam. This bungalow sits at the end of one road;
right beside it is a numerous forest which provides good scenery. It is corner house and has
own garden area around existing building. This potential really benefits us to extend the existing
structure.
A documentation of drawings are done to identify the structural elements of the building
and after that, we are to propose a renovation idea individually. After designing a renovated
space with appropriate structural elements, the load acting on the structure must be identified.
An analysis of the beams load distribution, bending moment and shear force will be carried out
along with the columns load distribution.
Design Brief
The proposed extension area must not exceed 100m per floor and 30% of the total area
of the house. The extension must also be sideways and of two-storey in height. Taking a fellow
course mate as a client, the extension includes a music room on the ground floor as they are an
avid follower of music. There is a gym adjacent to the room to promote exercise in the
convenience of their own home. The gym has a glass faade to get a good view of the garden.
This faade is shaded by the balcony on the first floor. On the first floor, a dedicated
multipurpose studio is designed right before a store room to enable easy storage of supplies
and keep the room looking neat as the course mate is an architecture student. A balcony is
connected to the studio to allow fresh air and daylight into the room.
