CHAPTER 7: ADJECENT BUILDING
The adjacent buildings around our site were mostly accommodation for the students of UiTM Shah Alam that stay inside the UiTM. The road access at the site and accommodation were easy to access for the student,
staff of Taska, parents of the students of taska and staff of UiTM. Besides that, the parking area at the site and the surrounding site are likely suitable because of the limited parking for student and staff. Other than
that, the adjacent building that were located around the site are nursery, swimming pool and Kolej Teratai.

student at Impian Cemerlang Child Care is a lecturer and staff of UiTM children. Other than that, close to
the child care there is Teratai College, Police Station, Bank and also food stall (Dataran Cendikia). The
food stall known as Dataran Cendikia, there have a lot of food choices and it also be the most economic
place.

Furthermore, nearby the child care it has UiTM swimming pool complex and vending machine, but the
vending machine is located at Teratai college. UiTM swimming pool complex have their own charge which
is for swimming session and swimming class for gain their economy. The price is so affordable to person
who want to swimming there but it is free for UiTM student, that is why that place is one of the most
attraction economy place in UiTM. Vending machine and Nescafe kiosk that located at Teratai College is
focus to student who stay in college, with the large number of student vending machine can get so much
income from there.

Summary
The activities that in the most popular and the main contributor to the site economy are retailing in short the site economics that can conclude here is business. Based on the observation and analysis on
economics of this site, we found out that there are strengths, weakness, opportunities, and threat on this child care. The strength is, this site has an attraction which is UiTM swimming pool complex and Dataran
Cendikia. So, all the attraction can contribute to the higher profit for the economy site. Lastly, the child care should maintain their building very well. It is because, it can overcome the weakness of the site area.

CHAPTER 11: SITE VEGETATION

11.1 Definition of landscape? 11.2 Definition of open space or green space?

A landscape is the visible features of an area of land, its landforms, and how they integrate with
natural or man-made features. A landscape includes the physical elements of geophysical defined
landforms such as (ice-capped) mountains, hills, water bodies such as rivers, lakes, ponds and the sea,
living elements of land cover including indigenous vegetation, human elements including different forms
of land use, buildings, and structures, and transitory elements such as lighting and weather conditions.
Combining both their physical origins and the cultural overlay of human presence, often created over
millennia, landscapes reflect a living synthesis of people and place that is vital to local and national
identity.
The character of a landscape helps define the self-image of the people who inhabit it and a sense
of place that differentiates one region from other regions. It is the dynamic backdrop to people's lives.
Landscape can be as varied as farmland, a landscape park or wilderness. The Earth has a vast range of
landscapes, including the icy landscapes of polar regions, mountainous landscapes, vast arid desert
landscapes, islands, and coastal landscapes, densely forested or wooded landscapes including past
boreal forests and tropical rainforests, and agricultural landscapes of temperate and tropical regions. The
activity of modifying the visible features of an area of land is referred to as landscaping.
Open space is any open piece of land that is undeveloped (has no buildings or other built
structures) and is accessible to the public. Open space can include:
• Green space (land that is partly or completely covered with grass, trees, shrubs, or other
vegetation). Green space includes parks, community gardens, and cemeteries.
• Schoolyards, Playgrounds, Public seating areas, Public plazas, Vacant lots
• Open space provides recreational areas for residents and helps to enhance the beauty and
environmental quality of neighborhoods. But with this broad range of recreational sites comes
an equally broad range of environmental issues. Just as in any other land uses, the way parks
are managed can have good or bad environmental impacts, from pesticide runoff, siltation
from overused hiking and logging trails, and destruction of habitat.
• Lack of community and public access to safe open and green space is a critical area of
concern for urban residents in New England.

i. The first one when building new stairs is to determine
where the stairs will start and where it will end. Find these
two places and determine if you have enough space at
both ends to be standing up safely, or at least have 24
inches available to use as the landing area.
ii. Measure the total rise to the landing spot with a leveled 2
x 4. The angle between both landings should be around
40 degrees, at a maximum. That will be the total stair rise
iii. To find the number of treads, subtract one from the
number of risers, as there’s always one fewer tread than
risers. Multiply the number of treads by 10.25 inches
wide, or the same as two 2x6s. Measure the horizontal
projected distance from the top landing to the bottom
landing to be sure you are correct.
iv. Mark on the bottom landing where the stair will actually
end. Measure to determine the stringer and skirt length.
Take the stringer or the 2x12 and put them on top of a
sawhorse to layout the place where the riser and treads
will be
v. Mark the left and right position of the skirts and mark
horizontal lines to mark the top treads location. Tack the
skirts and screw the skirts to the top landing surface
vi. Attach the bottom riser into each stringer and check the
squareness of the stair. Nail the second riser and screw
on the two 2x6 bottom treads leaving a ¼ in gap between
the boards. Add all risers and treads up to the top of the
stairs. The bottom riser will probably need to be cut to

iv. Insert the drainage tube. Connect the tube so it forms a

very important the tube is level so water is able to freely
move through the tube.
v. Run the drainage tube out to the drainage area. Ensure
the drainage tube is on a decline to ensure water runs
away from the building and does not become an
entrance.
vi. Cover the drainage tube with crushed rock and back fill
the hole with dirt.
vii. Ensure the end of the drainage tube is free and clear
from debris. It is a good idea to cover the end of the tube
with wire mesh or screening to stop small animals from
climbing inside and blocking the drain.

complex and tedious. The spectrum of threats is ever changing so that the risk analysis for each building
might be unique and changing as well. Buildings also evolve over time through aging, wear and tear of
use, and the effects of climate. Human factors and concepts of operations have to be considered as well.

In a conclusion for this task, we are divided into three group which is site analysis group, condition
survey and measured drawing group. Site analysis group have been carried out the task by observing
the adjacent building around the area, surrounding environment such as surrounding facilities, main road
and traffic flow, vegetation, existing services, natural impact for instance the sun orientation, wind
direction and also culture on that area. In this way from the information that they had gain, would help the
other group to the best picture regarding the task that they had carried out. Besides that, for measured

drawing group, they had measured all parts of Tadika & Taman Asuhan Kanak-Kanak Universiti Teknologi
Mara and it covered the entrance area including ground floor and first floor area, site plan and the other
drawing. To record the entire measured element they had used measuring tape and laser distance by
pointing the detector to determine the height, in this case that would be useful to produce the purposed
refurbishment drawing. For condition survey group, they already make an inspection and determine the
types of defect occur on the building, find the causes and suggest the best remedial works for the defect
they have found.
