4. 2.1 ROOF SYSTEM
Ceiling sound proof layering to minimise the noise
created during the raining time on the zinc roof.
Curved roof design is achievable in large span as a coverage of the
building and create an introvert space.
The extension of roof as a facade of the building can be done
as part of the design.
Lightweight of the zinc roofing structure allows it to cover the
balcony with only galvanised steels within it.
Ceiling finishes can follow the angle of the roofing to form
interesting internal spaces.
A layer of fire-rated coating is sprayed on the zinc inner roof
to minimise the hazard during fire events.Double Standing Seam Linitherm Details

5. 2.2 STRUCTURAL SYSTEM
However, if the slab is connected positively to the
beam and the studs, then a portion of the slab can
be assured to act compositely with the beam. In
effect, this composite creates a larger and stronger
beam than would be provided by the steel beam
alone.
Steel-concrete composite elements use the
concrete’s compressive strength alongside steel’s
high resistance to tension, and when they are being
tied together, a high efficient and lightweight unit will
be formed. Composite action is formed during low
load carrying structural members are integratedly
connected and deflect as a single unit.

1. Concrete Slab reinforced with welded Wire Mesh: at required locations
and behaves structurally as a continuous one-way reinforced concrete slab.
2. Concrete Slab & Joist: interaction between them begins to occur once the
wet concrete begins to set. Achieve within 24hours for construction loads.
3. Rigid Plywood Sheets & Rollbars: simple forms for placing concrete, to
provide the essential lateral and torsional stability to the entire floor system
during concreting stage.
7. 2.3 FACADE SYSTEM
The lightwash of the daylight to the interior reading space enhance the
ambiance of the spaces other than providing sufficient lighting.

8. 2.3 FACADE SYSTEM
The building brings the atmosphere of the light from
the tabaco drying-building through a ceramic fabric
inspired by the traditional brick. Light enters spaces
through holes on the facade. This produces a
dematerialized facade with refined geometries,
which allows the filtration of sunlight through the
walls.The facade is made up of a double skin
composedcomposed of a glass-wall and ceramic-fabric named
FLEXBRICK. In this way a thermal space is created
and it directs the views from the inside, prevents
heating in the summer season and forms a picture of
the tobacco drying-buildings.
