Aim was to fit the unit up in a truck, therefore the dimension of our unit is basically base on a truck size dimension, pretty restricted but we were able to get out with a good solution.
The truck is able to catter up to 8 units, a typical classroom takes up to about 7 units..
therefore about 2-3 trucks is require to transport our proposed scheme classroom shown below.
Once everything was finallize, we built a site model reflecting on how the classroom are meant to orientate on the sight. We decided all glazings should be shaded by timber battens louvers. The scheme consist of an internal courtyard for children to play and social with each other during break time. It is also a good outdoor learning place for the teacher to utilize.
Diagram of winter and summer sun is shown on the system we design... More other systems were introduced such as hydraulic floor heating, solar power, rainwater catchment and etc. . All these systems are available on the following weblink: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7O61Z4rO-ec. It is our final product compiled into a video.
