Building Construction & Materials
Project 2
Tutor: Mr Stefan
CONTRUCTION DETAILING OF BUILDING ELEMENTS
The second project of BCM required me to work in a team of 6. Through the form of drawings and model making, we study and demonstrate our understandings on the construction of a double storey terraced house. Each group had to work with either timber or reinforced concrete as the focal construction material of their house. The goal of this project is to understand the construction details and design of the said building while working as a team.
Assigned Material: Timber
MODEL
DRAWINGS
Reflection
This project once again reminded me on the importance of team cohesion and the ability to manage a team. At first, the team seemed to be vibrant and eager to display their skills regarding the detailed construction drawings but as time goes on, the team as a whole does not seem to work in coordination. Despite being aware of the difficulties the team is undergoing, I still had hopes to get our task done accordingly. But all fell through when the members are not following instructions given to them. Consequently, although I am proud to have work with a hardworking individual, I was not satisfied with the overall production of the team after the project submission. On the other hand, I was genuinely happy to work with a resilient friend on this project together. Nevertheless, I will take this as another learning lesson and be more proactive as a team leader in the future.
