We will have an individual assignment consisting of 20% and a group assignment of 30% and the remaining for final exam for this module.For the individual assignment, we are required to write an essay report regarding the topic of how to enhance an green technology air conditioning system while for the group task, we are required to form a group of 12 and go to a site visit to study about the building's services that had covered during our lecture class .Then we will need to write a report and presentation on the system follow by the requirement from Uniform Building By Laws (UBBL).
Learning Outcome:
1. To create awareness and understanding of the principles of building services system in a building.
2. To introduce various building services system that are available and the limitation of the choices - the services considered are primarily fire protection system, vertical transportation systems, mechanical air-conditioning system and electricity generation and supply system.
3. To prepare students to apply their understanding and knowledge for their preparation of the Bills of Quantities and for estimating purposes.

Reflection:
I have improved my lifelong learning skills as this subject has taught me a lot. I have gained much knowledge on this area. I know how does the whole building services system operate in a high rise building by having a case study on it. I have also get the opportunity to visit the pump room, AHU unit which is normally we will not have the chance to go in.To accomplish this assignment, teamwork and communication skills play an important role. To complete the task, we will have to work collaboratively to develop a good report and make the site visit success. Moreover, communication skills is therefore very important for a group of people who needs to work together. Lastly, I have also learned alot of theory in class such as the drawing for the HVAC System and etc which is very useful for my measurement for HVAC system.
