Audit of facilities management performance in higher education properties. Case studies: Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) and Universiti Malaya (UM) / Hasnan Hashim, Mohd Esham Mamat and Noorazlina Kamarulzaman
No full textPerformance management has a strong relationship with facilities management practices. The unclear information of the method of managing performance in higher education properties is emerged the research to be undertaken. In order to identify the relationship and the implementation of FM performance in higher education properties in Malaysia, this dissertation has been carried out. The first objective of doing this research is to identify the method FM performance management in higher education properties of public university. The second objective is to identify problem associated with the FM implementation within the higher education organizations. Analysis for the research comprises of comparative and descriptive approach as well as qualitative and quantitative analysis which are based on case studies, interview and structured questionnaire. The findings revealed that performance management practices is systematically established, implemented and enforced as part of their quality objectives achievements by introduced the performance indicators and using the four tested research variables which are flexibility, effectiveness, efficiency and creativity. The opinions gathered from respondents are very encouraging. The information is obtained from FM personnel in multiple disciplines and customer (students, ordinary staff and public) where the results are thoroughly analyzed. At the end of this paper is proposed a basic framework of FM performance in higher education properties highlighted the areas that type of assessment that should be done. From the findings, the author anticipate that this research would provide better understanding and perception to the readers on the FM performance management in higher education properties and the extent of its benefits as well
Dampness defects on wall using infrared thermography at Pasar Besar Siti Khadijah, Kota Bharu Kelantan / Norida Maziantie Muhammad and Hasnan Hashim
No full textUsing infrared thermography for the analysis of buildings and structures is reliable and accurate. To measure the extent of dampness to a structure or building, an infrared scanner detects energy and maps the temperature contours over the surface of a target object. There is consideration of the application of infrared thermography in two specific situations - the delamination of external/ internal wall finishes and the assessment building’s physical condition. However, this study will focus on dampness on the building surface as well as the causes that affect this problem through the use of infrared thermography. Accordingly, a samples test (imager pictures) was taken to find the cause and effect of the occurrence of the defect dampness in the case study. From the research done, it can be concluded that there is indeed an effect of humidity on the walls of Pasar Besar Siti Khadijah, that is from an average temperature of 30 degrees Celsius, the colour from the observation of the thermograph image is purple which the indicator from the device shows in the lower range, the relative humidity is 70 percent to 79.4 percent. This percentage also shows the presence of moisture in the air around the building. In addition, there are also various defects that exist which show the action of this dampness. Finally, from the findings of this study, it is to identify the existence of this dampness. The data and findings obtained can be used by the Kota Bharu Municipal Council and vendors to ensure the safety of consumers and residents of the market as well as being able to carry out better maintenance plans in the future
Building performance optimization strategies and practices – a impact and achievement on sustainable built environment / Alia Abdullah Saleh, Hasnan Hashim , Noorazlina Kamarulzaman
No full textBuilding performance optimization is one of the trivial of the building characterization according to sustainable built environment approach. The introduction of Optimize Building Performance and System Control Strategies helps to optimize the usage for building in particular to Productivity, Functional or Operational - Product or Systems Integration, Meet Performance Objectives. Aesthetics Preservation, Secure or Safe, Sustainable -
Optimize Site Potential, Protect and Conserve Water, Use Environmentally Preferable Products, Enhance Indoor Environmental Quality and Optimize Operational and Maintenance Practices. The building industry has been judged to consume large quantities of material resources and energy. So as to promote sustainability in this sector, definite intend and programs need to be cultivated to nurture awareness among team member, including developers, owners, designers, engineers, contractor, occupant and authorities. The anticipated
finding of this research is to substantiate the importance of building performance optimization including whole building design process, cost effective, functional or operational, productive, Building Information Modeling (BIM), products and systems, energy efficiency programs, building commissioning, operational and maintenance practices, Facility Performance Evaluation, Codes and Compliances Standard and associated
strategies including Building Monitoring, High-Efficiency Equipment, Life Cycle Assessment, Rightsizing Equipment, Staff Training, Systems Tune-up and Total Building Commissionin

Interactive learning: The use of virtual reality in UiTM education system / Anis Hasliza Abu Hashim …[et al.]
No full textCurrent rapid development in Virtual Reality (VR) technology has led to many successful applications that are very useful in many fields such as in learning and training in many disciplines. VR technologies have been evolving during the past few years, leaving research laboratories and finding application in a number of areas. Virtual reality promises the creation of environments that are vivid, lifelike. and highly interactive, and where the user will be able to emerge in a synthetic world that may not exist or may be too difficult or too dangerous to visit in a real-world situation. Many examples of where VR has been used for educational purposes around the world. Each has shown a level of success even though the technology was extremely limited. It seems that the successful of the area was attributed to the flexibility offered by the virtual environment. There is no doubt that the students who used a VR based system enjoyed themselves. It is highly likely that this factor contributed to the sense of fulfillment that the students reported. The main objective of this paper is to introduce the use of virtual reality in educational field and convey the knowledge and the applications that have been done and currently being done in the virtual reality area. UiTM could benefit the technology of VR in many ways as this technology is becoming very well-known and easy to access
