lecture 5 HOUSING
Lecture 5 is on 8/8/2007
Intention: To discuss about Housing
Actor: Mr Wan Burhanuddin Wan Abidin and all first year HBP students.
Site: E48BProduct: To know more about housing
Act: lecture was given by our lecturer, we wrote down the notes, listened and answered his questions
Firstly, what is HOUSING? An act or a product? Housing is a product in the production of build environment. It can be in the form of building, road, drain and others. The main purpose is for living and carry out all activities of hoursehold or formal activities. Every people has their own ideal house. They buy house according to their financial ability.Housing has never been a problem. Housing is to make money or profit. Therefore, developers try to create and identify the problems of housing so that the owners will try to find out solution from developers and developers can earn money from it.
the defination:
Housing (n) [perumahan] = product
Housing is devided into 3 main type which are low cost housing, mediun cost housing and high cost housing, in the form of aggregation and division. Besides that, the management of housing can be divided into self management and condominium management.Developers construct different type of housing for different level status of people. Actually, the paid of low cost housing buyers are insufficient to cover the capital of housing construction. Therefore, medium and high cost housing subsidising the low cost housing. In other word, the buyers of medium and high cost housing had to pay some small amount for the buyers of low cost housing.
Housing (v) = can be identified as an act that consisting 5 elements,
which are:
1) hand key
2) structure and infill
3) core house
4) site and services
5) provide land
Handing Key-
Buyers will get their own house's key and move into ready-made housing.
Structure and Infill-
Provide structure with basic facilities such as toilet in different unit or size as they want according to their own budget.-different people need different units according to their requirement, need and affordability.-in other word, owner can infill on the existing structure as they like.
Core House-
owner can extend as they like when the need is arising.-is a house that put on site with the basic equipments such as water, electricity, phone line, etc.-provide basic house and owner can do their additional units according to their need and affordability.
Site and Services-
the surrounding of housing area will keep on building on an existing infrastructure as time go longer.Provide Land-just provide land only without water supply and electricity unless they pay for it.
Questions:Who are the actors who use HOUSING AS A PRODUCT?
-contractors, renters, buyers
Who are the actors who use HOUSING AS AN ACT?-
contractors, construction labours
lecture 4 : the element and introduction of "project celah"
Lecture 4 is on 1/8/2007
Intention:
a brief discuss about element and introduction of the assignment Project "Celah".Actor: Mr Wan Burhanuddin Wan Abidin and all first year HBP students.
Site:
E48BProduct: to understand what is the project about
Act:
lecture was given by lecture and we listen, write down important notes and ask questions about the project.
Rule:
lecturer listed down all requirements of the project and we must follow the rules in order to finish our assignment with better mark
ELEMENT
is the smallest invisible particles of the language. For example, a word is element. When we join all word(element), it become complex substances. Word can survive by itself , for instance "Help!". However, when we combine that word with other words, it become different meaning. There are many elements in build environment which can determine the production. Production is a non-stop process. Whereas the meaning of reproduction is to produce again.
There are 6 elements in production of built environment which are intention, actor, act, rule, site, and product.
Next is the introduction of assignment-Project "Celah".
The intention is to understand
"Act" by intervening.Intention: To construct 1M plate and to improve the area of HBP quadrangle.
Actor: 6 members from different majors in a group such as architecture, interior design, planning, quantity surveying, construction management and building technology.
Act: To identify the existing of path and node in HBP quadrangle, create team name and logo, print out name card, prepare proposal, construct plate.Site: Surrounding of HBP quadrangle
Product: 1M plate
Rule: plate must be able to take a load of 200kg, use the concept of 3R's, life span of plate is 12 months and zero cost.

Spatial Construction
Spatial characterization.
The definition of the spatial presence of an entity constrains the possible analyses which can be applied to that entity and influences the final conclusions that can be reached. While this property is fundamentally true of all analysis, it is particularly important in spatial analysis because the tools to define and study entities favour specific characterizations of the entities being studied. Statistical techniques favour the spatial definition of objects as points because there are very few statistical techniques which operate directly on line, area, or volume elements. Computer tools favour the spatial definition of objects as homogeneous and separate elements because of the primitive nature of the computational structures available and the ease with which these primitive structures can be created.

Scale,nanoscale,celest scale and extreme scale
THE DEFINATION:
SCALE.
The scale of a map is the ratio of a single unit of distance on the map to the equivalent distance on the ground. The scale can be expressed in four ways: as a ratio, a fraction, in words and as a graphical (bar) scale.
A scale expressed as a ratio of say 1:25,000 means that one unit on the map represents 25,000 units on the ground, ie 1 millimetre represents 25,000 mm, expressed better as 25 metres.
The statement 'one millimetre represents 25 metres' is an expression of scale in words.
Scale expressed as a fraction, 1/25,000, means that any distance on the map is 1/25,000 th the distance on the ground. It expresses the amount of reduction of distances used to represent detail on the map. The 25,000 value is called the scale denominator.
Due to showing the curved surface of the earth on a flat map surface, the scale varies from place to place. Thus a representative fraction is stated for scale which is correct at the centre of the map and which varies elsewhere. While called representative fraction, it really is the representative ratio.

SCALE (RATIO)
The concept of scale is applicable if a system is represented proportionally by another system. For example, for a scale model of an object, the ratio of corresponding lengths is a dimensionless scale, e.g. 1:25; this scale is larger than 1:50.
In the general case of a differentiable bijection, the concept of scale can, to some extent, still be used, but it may depend on location and direction. It can be described by the Jacobian matrix. The modulus of the matrix times a unit vector is the scale in that direction. The non-linear case applies for example if a curved surface like part of the Earth's surface is mapped to a plane, see map projection.
In the case of an affine transformation the scale does not depend on location but it depends in general on direction. If the affine transformation can be decomposed into isometries and a transformation given by a diagonal matrix, we have directionally differential scaling and the diagonal elements (the eigenvalues) are the scale factors in two or three perpendicular directions. For example, on some profile maps horizontal and vertical scale are different; in particular elevation may be shown in a larger scale than horizontal distance.
In the case of directional scaling (in one direction only) there is just one scale factor for one direction.
The case of uniform scaling corresponds to a geometric similarity. There is just one scale throughout.
In the case of an isometry the scale is 1:1.

NANOSCALE
Although a metre is defined by the International Standards Organization as `the length of the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299 792 458 of a second' and a nanometre is by definition 10- 9 of a metre, this does not help scientists to communicate the nanoscale to non-scientists. It is in human nature to relate sizes by reference to everyday objects, and the commonest definition of nanotechnology is in relation to the width of a human hair.
Unfortunately, human hairs are highly variable, ranging from tens to hundreds of microns in diameter (10-6 of a metre), depending on the colour, type and the part of the body from which they are taken, so what is needed is a standard to which we can relate the nanoscale. Rather than asking anyone to imagine a millionth or a billionth of something, which few sane people can accomplish with ease, relating nanotechnology to atoms often makes the nanometre easier to imagine. While few non-scientists have a clear idea of how large an atom is, defining a nanometre as the size of 10 hydrogen, or 5 silicon atoms in a line is within the power of the human mind to grasp. The exact size of the atoms is less important than communicating the fact that nanotechnology is dealing with the smallest parts of matter that we can manipulate.

CELEST SCALE
The defination of celest scale is it not related with nanoscale.
The mean this scale is getting bigger.
EXTREME SCALE
Getting bigger then ever. The saize is more bigger the celest meter.
This scale give more detailing on an object.
sustainable development (S.D)
THE DEFINITION:
S.D is defined of balancing the fulfillment by human needs with the protection of the natural environment so that its needs can be met not only in the present, but in the indefinite future. The term was used by the Brundtland Commission which coined what has become the most often-quoted definition of S.D as development that "meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
S.D does not focus solely on environmental issues. More broadly, S.D policies encompass three general policy areas:

S.D does not focus solely on environmental issues. More broadly, S.D policies encompass three general policy areas:
1) economic,
2) environmental
3) social.
In support of this, several United Nations texts, most recently the 2005 World Summit Outcome Document, refer to the "interdependent and mutually reinforcing pillars" of S.D as economic development, social development, and environmental protection
Green development is generally differentiated from S.D in that Green development prioritizes what its proponents consider to be environmental sustainability over economic and cultural considerations. Proponents of S.D argue that it provides a context in which to improve overall sustainability where cutting edge Green development is unattainable. For example, a cutting edge treatment plant with extremely high maintenance costs may not be sustainable in regions of the world with less financial resources. An environmentally ideal plant that is shut down due to bankruptcy is obviously less sustainable than one that is maintainable by the indigenous community, even if it is somewhat less effective from an environmental standpoint.

the 6 elements in ours field
The defination of Build environment is it have are connection with building, development and environment. People who involves into this field mostly are architects, quantity surveying, construction management, engineer and contractor.
the first elements is an ACTOR
A person who involves to construct and build the product for a comfortable living to the comunity. This group of people will work together from searching, planning, constructing and other steps until the building completely accomplish finish. for example, thereare architects, quantity surveying and construction management.
the 2nd elements is INTENTION
A group of people must have an vision and target to build a product. This people should have a high knowledge about the building, place, weather and so on . for example, an architect want to build a building which is comfortable and safe for their clients.
3rd is LOCATION
An architect must study the location first. They will study and understand about the nature of the location. Then they will study the type of earth and soil to choose the suitable product design and material to use of building. They also should think about the side effects that can happen while or after the product have been build.
fourth is RULES
Rules is rules. That is the rules. The actor should follow the rules,laws and understanding that.
anything can happen when the rules broken. They should read the source about the laws to get the knowledge and have to understand it.
fifth is ACT
After all the process is done, then the product will be construct. People who expert in construction management will guide during this construction process to ensure it will complete on the right time givin.
lastly is PRODUCT
After all the planing of construction work has been done, then, we can see the product. At this time, all the people who involves in this work like architect, quantity surveying and others will have their satisfaction. They will be proud of what they have done.
