ASSIGNMENT 1


MY PARTS IN THIS ASSIGNMENT (ELEVATOR SYSTEM AND SOUND SYSTEM)

ELEVATOR SYSTEM

What is elevator system?An elevator system is a vertical transport system that carries people or goods between the floors of building safely and efficiently.

Problem: Due to the research, I find that even in Taylor’s University or in DK Senza got the different problems.


In Taylor’s University, the lifts always out of service, and only three elevators available in one building with 9 floors. Once the lift out of service, it will causing student jamming in one block while waiting the elevator. Besides, the ventilation in the elevator is not very good. From my experience, my body will sweat when using the lift from ground floor to the highest floor. Last ,the lift only can accommodate 20 persons, 1360kg, per lift.


In DK SENZA, the lifts in always in good condition, but only 6 elevators available in one building with 22 floors. From my analysis, i find that waiting the lift to lobby take the average time is 8 minutes. Students in DK always wasting much time while waiting the lifts. Besides, the elevator only can accommodate 14 persons with total weight of 953kg. Ventilation inside the elevators is much better than Taylors University elevator, but, it still feel uncomfortable because of its long squeeze space inside.



SOUND SYSTEM

What is sound system?
Sound system is a set of equipment for the reproduction and amplification of sound.

PROBLEM: From my research, i found that Taylors University has a better sound quality than DK SENZA but still have alot of problems.

In Taylors University, the sound system in commercial block is wall mounting and condition is quite good. The sound come out is clear but low, when got people laughing, shouting or cleaning machine sound will overlap the sound. Besides, the distance between each speaker is far.

In DK SENZA, the sound system is ceiling mounting and condition is not good. The sound come out is not clear sometimes, but the volume is high enough although people are playing, shouting and chitchatting. Besides, the distance between each speaker is nearer.

REFLECTION:
          After finish the assignment, i feel i have a lot of knowledge still need to know and improve. Base on the research and comparison, i find that different building have different problems. it is interesting to define a problem in every corner of a building. i have a great learning in this assignment 1 with my group mates.
