A SYSTEM OF SUSTAINABLE BUILDING CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS INCORPORATING THE RAISED FLOOR INNOVATION – THE TASIK CHINI RESEARCH CENTRE EXPERIENCE

摘要: The Malaysian construction industry sector covers the aspects of planning, design, conservation, demolition and repairing various types buildings all mechanical civil engineering works as well other field work involved. It has attracted many researchers most studies that have been done on revolved around study technology a design analysis. However, in reality it is still largely dependant conventional system established decades ago. This paper intends to propose sustainable materials by redefining traditional Malay architecture element raised floor its innovation with Industrialised Building System (IBS). will present experience from Tasik Chini Research Centre UKM an alternative solution providing more significant comprehensive process, offering fast efficient using components or are sustainable. development itself incorporated philosophy treading earth gently, aimed at reducing impact environment lifting ground. complied UNESCO guidelines Strategic Implementation Action Plan for Chini's Biosphere Reserves. used architectural principles references applied constructs variables may influence tropical setting. A concept was integrated structural system, thus diverse range functions. An IBS systems implemented use structures, panels modular walls low thermal mass (low mass) materials, green roofs concrete prevent heat sunlight. proposes new paradigm includes sustainability concern, technological simplicity social aspiration identity. designed incorporate passive climatic controls combine making easy-to-install system.
