1.0 INTRODUCTION Housing is a critical issue here and everywhere in the world today. With the mismatch between demand and supply, between expectations and reality, there needs to be a re-think and overhaul in how we address and tackle the issues regarding housing today, in order to engage with new societal aspirations and the current conditions for the future. As architects, this is an area where we can demonstrate leadership, to bring the entire knowledge and skills of the discipline with the powers of architectural imagination and organisation. With new technology and digital tools available now, this is an opportune moment to re-engage with the ambitions for a new positive future for Malaysian housing. It is time for architects to deliver re-energised imagination, innovation and beauty to this typology On 18th March, 2019, the Malaysian Institute of Architects (PAM - Pertubuhan Akitek Malaysia) entered into an Agreement with Gamuda Industrial Building System Sdn Bhd to collaborate on project HOUSING 4.0, which comprises two key planks: an open architectural design ideas competition and a digital innovation lab towards transforming housing in Malaysia. The collaboration involves emphasising innovation in building future homes by harnessing digital tools including the use of Industrialised Building Systems (IBS) and Building Information Modelling (BIM), in addition to promoting exemplary and prototypical design ideas for the future of housing in the country. HOUSING 4.0 thus is both design and technology, to seek the best architectural propositions for a Malaysian urbanscape that underlines its context and social frameworks, and as an advocacy platform for the utilisation of digital technology in the industry. The project initiative is also in response to the Dasar Perumahan Negara (National Housing Policy) issued earlier in 2019.

2.0 ORGANISERS HOUSING 4.0 is a collaboration between Pertubuhan Akitek Malaysia (PAM) — Malaysian Institute of Architects — the national professional institute of architects in Malaysia, and digital technology partner, GAMUDA Industrial Building System Sdn Bhd (GIBS).


about Gamuda Industrial Building System Sdn Bhd Gamuda IBS is an end-to-end digital IBS solutions provider, pioneering digital IBS adoption in Malaysia with the country’s first digital IBS facility in Sepang. Leveraging on today's digital design tools and robotic construction, digital IBS means flexibility in design, fast construction and superior quality finish. Gamuda IBS is able to easily build a wide range of products, be it affordable homes, luxurious landed homes, high-rise buildings and even public facilities like schools and hospitals. Every component is produced at our controlled factory environment and fully tested, meaning quality is assured through this safer and more sustainable construction method with minimal wastage.

3.0 COMPETITION OBJECTIVE To seek the best architectural design solutions for the middle mass housing sector in Malaysia incorporating digital innovation and utilising digital tools including the use of Industrialised Building Systems (IBS) and Building Information Modelling (BIM). To achieve this, the Organisers have developed a competition design brief with criteria’s and assumptions matching the nations requirements and needs to be located within a 3D digitally constructed project site.

We expect to see submissions which display a high level of innovation in design, configuration and assembly, to be able to collectively establish new benchmarks of understanding when discussing housing in this country. We anticipate much attention in the areas of housing technology, community planning and social equity, construction techniques and processes, engineering, sustainability innovations, tropical design, etc.

The competition project is an open architectural design ideas competition. The Organisers are under no obligation from this exercise to appoint any particular participant as Architect for any project.

Appendix “D” TECHNICAL DIGITAL BRIEF

1. INDUSTRIAL BUILDING SYSTEMS (IBS) CONTENT SCORE

Industrialised Building System (IBS) is a home-grown term to describe the use of automation, mechanisation and prefabrication of components for the building industry in Malaysia.

The CIDB IBS score is a systematic and structured assessment system to measure the usage of IBS in a consistent way, with emphasis on the following attributes:

1. The use of prefabricated and precast concrete components 2. Off-site production of components 3. The use of standardised components 4. Repeatability 5. Design using Modular Coordination concept

Higher IBS score is a reflection of a higher reduction of site labour, lower wastage, less site materials, cleaner environment, better quality, neater and safer construction sites, faster project completion as well as lower total construction costs.

A minimum score of 75 is required for Housing 4.0 submissions.

Each entry shall be accompanied with IBS score form and working calculations, and for Stage 2 shortlisted candidates, this scoring will be verified by a Certified IBS professional by CIDB.

IBS score form: http://www.cidb.gov.my/images/content/pdf/ibs/Form-CIDB-IBS-Score-M1-rev-2010.pdf

Manual for IBS content scoring may be downloaded from CIBD web portal : http://ibsportal.cidb.gov.my/ibsnetfiles//PublicationAndGuidelinesController/4bcb60ac-f877-4c6d-9e18-40387406d693.pdf 2. BUILDING INFORMATION MODELLING (BIM) ADOPTION

BIM or Building Information Modelling is a process for creating and managing information on a construction project across the project lifecycle. One of the key outputs of this process is the Building Information Model, the digital description of every aspect of the built asset. This model draws on information assembled collaboratively and updated at key stages of a project. Creating a digital Building Information Model enables those who interact with the building to optimize their actions, resulting in a greater whole life value for the asset.

In Malaysia, BIM's role is defined as a modelling technology and the associated set of processes to produce, communicate, analyse and use digital information models throughout the construction project life cycle. BIM usage is promoted by CIDB, and is focused on assisting industry players to implement BIM in their projects.

Stage 2 shortlisted entries to include a partial 3d model to illustrate the generalized building components, and architecture, structure, and M&E coordination.


3. DIGITAL DESIGN (BIM) AND PRECAST CONCRETE SYSTEM INTEGRATION

Digital precast concrete system comprising floor slabs, wall panels and bathroom pods as the primary architectural and structural elements is an economical and practical construction method which is co-ordinated and error free. Advantages of using precast concrete include:

• It is manufactured in a controlled environment where greater accuracy and superior quality control are possible.

• Flexible moulds formed by robots with reusable moulds mean it is economical to produce customised units. • There is significantly less waste from a robotics and automated factory manufacturing. • On-site assembly can be very fast and is generally weather independent, reducing site delays and ensuring

the construction programme can be maintained. • Precast concrete is very durable and fire resistant. • There are fewer local environmental impacts such as dust and noise pollution at the construction site. • All members can be done in horizontal formworks on a pallet carousel plant.

Housing 4.0 promotes the integration of digital design in BIM with precast concrete systems as a means to produce high quality and housing efficiently.

Design entries shall be judge on the extent and creative usage of precast structure elements, eg. walls, floor slabs, staircase, bathroom pods, etc (ref: Guidelines on Precast Elements)

4. DESIGN FOR MANUFACTURE & ASSEMBLY (DfMA)

Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) is a design approach that focuses on ease of manufacture and efficiency of assembly. By simplifying the design of a product it is possible to manufacture and assemble it more efficiently, in the minimum time and with less wastage.

Housing 4.0 focuses on 2 principles of DfMA that have particular relevance to the construction industry, namely

i. Design for ease of assembly ii. Use of modular design

Participants are encouraged to include their design for a prefabricated, factory finishes module – with attention to the geometry of parts, assembly, and joint detail (ref: Guidelines on Precast Elements)

5. ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE DESIGN (ESD)

Housing 4.0 advocates sustainable design and development to ensure that the quality of the environment is protected and enhanced for future generations. ESD principles incorporation shall be an assessment criteria, as early consideration of ESD at the concept and design stage is key to achieving the most benefits.
