INTRODUCTION
Introduction
This project is form by a group of five to six people, to construct a temporary bus shelter according to the max height
600mm, max base 400mm x 800mm which is able to accommodate 5-6 people with 1:5 scale.
The design of the bus shelter is a combination of pentagonal prism and ellipsoid.

DESIGN DERIVATIVE
Design Concept
FUNCTION
Tropical climate
-Hot and humid
-Rainfall during certain period, thunderstorms
can occurs
CONCEPT
Urban area
-Town
-One sided roadway
-5-8 people
-Height average: 175cm
Proposed Design
Option 1
Steel Structure - Half cylinder + Cuboid
Option 2
Timber Structure - Pentagonal prism + Ellipsoid
Proposed Design
Out of option 1 and 2, we decided to stick with the timber frame system with vertical columns and a pitched roof. We
continued to further explore the form as well as the structures load distribution abilities.

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
Weather Resistance
The materials are able to withstand the uplift of strong wind and rain falls. The extended part of the roof is to give
shades under the sun and to allow rain to run smoothly without entering the structure. [Ref. 2]
Access
The users may enter the bus shelter from either front or rear of the structure. It is designed to allow users enter easily and
give non-obstructed views of approaching buses.

CONSTRUCTION PROCESS
FLOOR
FOUNDATION
Formwork is created
and tested.
Concrete is poured in
and left to set for 2
days.

ROOF
It is attached to the
column by using L
brackets.
SEAT
A bench is constructed
using wood.

TEST RESULT
Forces Studies
Load Distribution
There are two different forces found in our temporary bus shelter : [Ref. 1]
a)Dead loads
Roof top and the columns are the stationary loads. Dead loads is the force transferred to the structure throughout the
lifespan.
Roof top is primarily due to self weight of the structure which is fixed permanently and it has weight of different
materials.
b)Live loads
The bench is known as a moving load in the structure. Although it is installed by the columns but its easy to uninstall
and change the position of the installation. The decking is designed to carry live loads or concentrated loads
whichever produce greater stresses in the part.

CONCLUSION
Conclusion
This project had given us an anxiety into the fundamental understanding of skeleton structure and its relevant
structural components. Throughout this project, we had gained a fair amount of knowledge on the ability to apply the
skeleton construction and its joints to actual construction.
As this project focuses more on the skeletal construction as compared to the design aesthetics, we decided to set a
theme for our bus shelter to suit the given requirements. Our designs evolved and progressed a fair amount of times, as
we noticed several weaknesses and limitation along the way. We also took the convenience of the temporary bus
shelter into consideration, which included the ease of assembling and disassembling the bus shelter.
The seating for the users of the temporary bus shelter was placed according to the human anthropometry research and
studies. The drainage of rainfall and ventilation were also considered.
Merging cosmetics and construction, we produced a bus shelter that renders the potential of the fabrication of both
appearance and load and force construction apposite.
