Design concept
General requirements
‘Transitory Accommodation for Disaster Victims’ must be separate from ‘Disaster Operation
and Distribution Centre’ but can be close together for seamless operations.
Besides the large multi-purpose hall, the other slighter spaces of the Community Centre may
be converted for disaster operations.
New spaces may also be created in between the Community Centre buildings to achieve
this end.
All the buildings must satisfy or meet the requirements of administrative, services and logistics
facilities.
The challenge
The challenge is to plan and design the community centre that is convertible into a disaster relief
centre. The design proposal should:
Creatively lay out the overall master plan of the community facilities,
Display competency in being convertible into a disaster relief centre,
Utilise steel as the main structural and finishing material in an innovative way,
Employ creative use of Industrialized Building System (IBS),
Incorporate green building strategies (GBI),and
Cater for people with disability/special needs.
Each team needs to identify its own site (not more than 5 acres) within Malaysia. Choose
a site that can benefit from the existing surrounding facilities. The site itself should not be
disaster prone. (if applicable)
