Abstract: Traditional vernacular architectures in Malaysia include public buildings such as a
masjid were designed with the tropical climate in mind and have proven to be an excellent
example of providing indoor thermal comfort to the occupants. It is a naturally ventilated
building being greatly influenced by the building designs. In traditional vernacular architecture,
the roof is the main building enclosure that contributes to the total heat gain. Hence, the research
aims to assess the indoor thermal condition of Masjid Kampung Laut, Kelantan, the first
traditional vernacular masjid in Malaysia. Data were collected using the method of field
measurement to evaluate the indoor comfort level of the masjid, in terms of indoor air
temperature, air velocity, and relative humidity. The results demonstrate that the average indoor
air temperature is acceptable and Masjid Kampung Laut responded favorably to the local
climate. However, it is believed that with an increase of 0.4m/s to 1.2m/s of air movement, will
further enhance indoor thermal comfort. Therefore, the findings can guide further thermal
comfort prediction studies for other naturally ventilated buildings. Several other potential
passive design strategies for roof design are proposed in this study to achieve acceptable indoor
thermal comfort conditions for the masjid in Malaysia.

Keywords: traditional vernacular masjid, field measurement, indoor thermal comfort

Abstract: Since December 2019, COVID-19 infection rates have risen considerably, and the
virus is currently widespread around the world. Following the initial epidemic of COVID-19,
medical waste output and demand have skyrocketed. Disposable face masks are considered
medical waste. Alternative measures must be implemented to assist in reducing medical waste
disposal, which can result in serious public health problems and have a negative influence on
the environment. In this regard, this research was conducted to investigate the effect of
disposable face mask (DFM) ash with varied rates ranging from 5% to 20% by weight on
bitumen with a 5% increment to be utilised as an alternative material in asphalt pavement. A
series of physical and rheological tests were conducted on the bitumen samples to study the
behaviour of the DFM ash in bituminous material. Overall, the physical and rheological test
results revealed that introducing 20% DFM ash to the modified bitumen was unable to achieve
the same properties as with the conventional SMA14 asphalt binder. However, the modified
bitumen has improved the properties and quality of the asphalt in the flexible pavement. In
addition, utilising the DFM waste in road construction would be a sustainable technique for
protecting the environment by minimising face mask waste caused by the COVID-19 epidemic
while lowering the pavement’s construction cost. The research findings may be commercialised
to generate revenue in the construction industry for sustainable transportation pathways.

Abstract: Despite the geospatial potential of Unmanned Aerial System, its application in the
construction industry is still at an early stage and limited exposure on the application. A survey
was conducted to identify the factor of utilization level, their difficulties, as well as the
perception associated with this technology. Responses from the Penang Contractors showed
that the most common utilization factor is cost expectancy and limited payload and battery life,
sensitivity to weather, as well as large volume of the generated data and data loss, as difficulties
to utilizing UASs in earthwork volumetric estimation during preliminary stage, deployment
stage and post-deployment stage respectively. This study also used a qualitative technique, in
which data were gathered via interviews with a contractor. Participant consider all variables
affecting the perception except project requirements. By understanding UAS utilization in
construction, this study offers a pathway for researchers and professionals to investigate
utilization factors, difficulties, and perceptions that may have the most impact on Malaysia's
construction industry. These barriers to UAS utilization in Malaysia's construction industry will
not preclude its use. However, government assistance is critical in encouraging the use of UAS
and increasing public awareness in the construction industry.

Abstract: Although a considerable amount of research has been focused on how building
information modeling (BIM) helps improve sustainable construction, BIM(6D) model
validation and efficient data analysis methods are still lacking. This study aims to provide
the more effective research method and analytical method. The Greenjiansville Sunshine
analysis software Sun2020 and daylight analysis software. Dali2020 were used for 6D
modeling and simulation and real simulation of a building outside the daylight range and
time. The daylight coefficients, outdoor visual field observation rate, and daylight quality
were calculated for the rooms inside the building. The results show that single the daylight
statistics and analysis color map can not accurately analyze whether the actual daylighting
meets the demand, but combined with Power BI comprehensive analysis can get fast and
accurate results. This paper provides important guidance for building researchers and
practitioners to better align BIM development with green building development in the
future.

Abstract: Improvements in transportation and logistics have forced many ports lost their
functional status even abandoned in the recent globalization context. While these deteriorated
port-related area could get revitalization when reusing the port heritage as a catalyst to rebuild
the better connection to the city, just as the ideal redevelopment projects worldwide have
revealed. They provide ways to identify and conserve the port heritage, especially set a
research foundation to explore how to use them for urban economic, social-cultural and
environmental sustainability. In this sense, three common perspectives towards adaptive
reuse of the port heritage have been introduced, respectively representing as multi-functional
creator, adhesive back to the city and environmental-friendly messenger, based on which,
practical implementation can be directly performed despite the scale of the port area.
Consequently, this approach selects a typical port heritage site (Yong Li dockyard) in
Zhuzhou, which is just an average industrial port city in center China, to illustrate that the
essential factors extracted from project icons will also work for proceedings with considering
their own context. In addition, a visual adaptive reuse plan is proposed, aiming to trigger the
urban waterfront regeneration by recreating the port heritage as new roles to increase
economy, satisfy residents and improve environment. Additionally, this research might shed
lights on other cities with potentials.

Abstract: The social distancing among people is vital in minimizing spread of COVID-19
among community and can be effective in flattening the outbreak. This research work on
developing a close contact proximity detection system among smartphone users and
particularly of COVID-19 patient using Bluetooth signal to identify and analyze close
contact proximity and social distancing from other anonymous smartphone user in his/her
surrounding and to alert user if the social distancing is breached. The methodology used the
Radio Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) signal to analyze and estimate the proximity
distance and duration of the individual’s exposure to other peoples in surrounding area. The
overlap zone of 1-meter is used to indicate detection of closed contact proximity between
users. Furthermore, the collected data can be used to do contact tracing that enable health
official to identify the closed contact of infected patient systematically, faster and can ensure
coverage of people that anonymously and not directly known to the COVID-19 patient. An
encouraging result is obtained on the closed contact proximity detection which shown
within the mobile apps. Furthermore, the performance of system for close contact proximity
detection shown that indoor location has a good signal distribution compared to outdoor
location.

Abstract: Modern civilization is increasing the commercial and residential buildings demand,
while a big part of the energy consumed in buildings is for cooling purposes. Modern building
design requires sustainable cooling facilities when an excellent roofing system plays an
important role. This paper investigates the performance of a cool roofing system that integrates
lightweight foam concrete roof tile and a passive cool roofing system. The concrete fabrication
process introduced the concrete roof tile hollow sections to improve the roof's thermal
resistance. The densities of the lightweight foam concrete roof tile were varied at 1300 kg/m3
and 1100 kg/m3, respectively, to determine a better performance of roof tile than a basic
concrete roof with a density of 2500 kg/m3. Two spotlight lamps that imitated solar irradiation
in the afternoon were used as the heat supplied on four roof prototypes. The results showed that

Abstract: Half-Scissor Like Elements (H-SLEs) deployable mechanism is the prefab scissor
based structural mechanism consists of two bars with bolted connection to enable structure
change shape. An experimental investigation on the isolated H-SLEs deployable mechanism
under compression axial load was presented. A total of twelve specimens were fabricated in
two series with six specimens each series were tested on their strength and stability at deployed
configuration. The test specimens in series 1 mm thick C75 section were namely S1, S2, S3,
S4, S5 and S6 while series 0.75 mm thick C 75 section were namely S7, S8, S9, S10, S11 and
S12. The test specimens consist of C 75 and C 100 section which connected with M6, M8 and
M10 bolt in grade 8.8. The compression axial load was applied at the center of 3 mm thick
loading platform. The experimental results obtained indicated that four types of failure modes
observed, i.e. bolt bending failure, section bearing failure, member buckling failure and
instability due to horizontal displacement at mid-height of H-SLEs deployable mechanism
(Bolted joint area). Among these failure modes, bolt bending failure was dominated the overall
structure stability and impacts others failure modes indirectly while section thickness has
impacted the buckling and bearing failure. The ultimate load capacity over BS EN 1993 design
bearing resistance ratio obtained for M10 bolt was satisfactory. Besides, twisted effect observed
during load applied also contributed to the failure modes identified. Thus, the H-SLEs deployable
mechanism with stiffener with M10 bolt connection is necessary for future research in the
application of spatial deployable structure purposes.

Abstract: Despite the rising demand for rubber products, the global production of rubber has
decreased recently. In this paper, a prototype of an automated latex cups collecting robot is
constructed to assist the workers in the collecting latex cups for rubber production. This robot
is built on a portable platform with a latex storage tank, motor-driven manipulator arm with
four degrees of freedom (DoF), double wishbone suspension, and Ackermann's steer
transmission. Rubber trees and latex cups are located using ultrasonic sensors and a camera. To
ensure that the control system is functioning properly, the developed prototype robot undergone
the functional test, in which the robot can collecting the latex cup located at the height of 105
cm and 160 cm. In the mobility test, the robot can overcome obstacles of 15 mm height. While
in the static test, the platform and the robotic arm can withstand the stress in the range of 107
N/m2. In the balance test, the topple angle is more than 40°, guaranteeing the stability of the
robot platform. These outcomes demonstrated that the prototype design can perform
fundamental functions automatically in the unstructured terrain of rubber plantation.

Abstract: Providing appropriate space for movement is one of the best ways needed to increase
cows' comfort in optimizing their productivity. Currently, several farms have made some
changes to the housing system by implementing a free-stall housing system. The system makes
the cows more comfortable to rest and do activities because they are not tied up. Due to the
large number of cows that are kept, sometimes farmers find it difficult to detect the health
condition of each cow individually. Hence, an early detection system is needed to control and
monitor cattle activity. The study aimed to develop a monitoring system at the free stall barn
farm based on the internet of things. The method used for the study adopted the steps in the
System Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Microcontroller-based dairy cow mobility
monitoring tool built with NodeMCU ESP8266, GPS sensor, 5v booster, 18650 battery and
housing to protect all components. All components used cables with the provisions of the
NodeMCU ESP8266 as the tool control centre, GPS sensor as a coordinate point reader, battery
as a voltage source, and 5v voltage booster as a component that controls the tool and controls
the power off or on. The tool works by getting a power source from the battery and then
displaying all the components. The GPS antenna will search for satellites to determine the
coordinates of the tool and the coordinate point information will be sent to the NodeMCU
ESP8266. When the GPS antenna searches for coordinates, the NodeMCU ESP8266 will look
for a WiFi connection in it to then be able to access the internet and send information from the
GPS sensor to the hosting website.

Abstract: Estuaries are transition zones between the sea and inland rivers, where oceanic tidal
waves and fluvial flows control hydrodynamic processes. However, these natural changes and
implications are not thoroughly understood, particularly in tropical estuaries. The interactions
between tidal and riverine flows in the Kuala Pahang Estuary were examined using numerical
modelling techniques applying TELEMAC2D. Our results model demonstrate that prolonged
heavy rainfall significantly impacted water levels in the estuary system during the neap tide
cycle. Moreover, the results show that the tidal range and current speed significantly influenced
estuary morphological changes. The flood-ebb current can affect sediment transport near the
river bank, leading to erosion. Meanwhile, the ebb-flood current significantly affected the bed
sediment and suspension in the estuary mouth area while deposition happens during the slack
water, either flood or ebb. Our results have a major impact on estuary morphology and sediment
transport in the estuary water column, which will lead to a reduction in estuary water quality
and the local economy, particularly fisheries.

Abstract: Thermal comfort is a part of indoor environmental quality that should be considered
to ensure the occupants' well-being. Unconducive buildings not only bring occupants
discomfort but also tend to affect health, disrupt the process of teaching and learning, and
reduce work productivity. Thus, this study determines the thermal condition of existing
workshop buildings used in Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET)
implementation. Evaluations of comfort are based on occupant surveys and environmental
measurements. A total of 257 people completed a questionnaire distributed at three technical
institutions in Kedah, Malaysia. According to the findings, the average thermal sensation vote
is 1.85, which leads to 66.5% of respondents feeling discomfort. Meanwhile, the adaptive
model analysis showed that the workshop environmental conditions were out of the comfort
zone and did not comply with the ASHRAE 55 standard. Hence, the thermal discomfort factors
from the occupants' perspective were identified and widely discussed. As a result, the research
findings will benefit parties involved in new building construction or existing building
renovations to improve indoor air quality.

Abstract: This paper presents the results of an investigation to evaluate the effect of Palm
Oil Boiler Ash (POBA) and a chemical warm mix additive, Rediset on the physicochemical
and thermal properties of bituminous binders. Modified binder preparation was carried out
by varying the composition of POBA (0, 3, 5, 7, and 9%) and Rediset with 2% by total weight
of the binder, into a 60/70 penetration grade of bitumen through a wet mixing method.
The physicochemical properties of the POBA/Rediset modified binders were examined
using Fourier Transform InfraRed (FTIR), while the thermal analysis was conducted using
Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), and Thermogravimetry analysis (TGA)
techniques. Based on FTIR analysis, POBA/Rediset modified binders have almost similar
functional groups as for the control sample (0%) which indicate the compatibility of POBA in
the bituminous binder. Meanwhile, the thermos-grams shows an insignificant effect of POBA
on the thermal stability of the binder. Overall, the inclusion of POBA as bitumen modifier
in WMA binder for pavement construction is a promising and potential alternative in
lowering the asphalt production temperature without compromising the binder properties.

Abstract: The implementation and maintenance of highway infrastructure often requires
significant capital throughout its life cycle which affects stakeholders including the
government, developers, operators, users, etc. Furthermore, the sustainability aspect and
existing toll systems in Malaysia are currently in the midst of being re-evaluated in order to
attain a long-term gain that benefits both road users and relevant stakeholders. The objective of
this study is to propose a Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) model for sustainable highway
projects in Malaysia which considers certain cost optimisation measures throughout the stages
of concept, design, construction, and operation & maintenance. The proposed LCCA model
intends to act as a cost optimisation tool that provides sustainability recommendations for toll
systems, highway alignments, pavement maintenance and rehabilitation, existing policies,
contract and project type, material, equipment, time-cost factor, etc. Additionally, a relationship
between the financial efficiency of toll systems and the affect it has on the overall cost of
highway projects was established. The significance of cost pertaining to highway infrastructure
components and the perception of toll systems was evaluated via a survey questionnaire;
distributed to a select group of senior and principal engineers. The survey utilised a 5-point
Likert scale which assisted in forming a regression analysis along with determining a
correlation between toll systems and the overall cost of highway projects. Secondary data
obtained from a reputable consultancy aided in understanding highway components that could
potentially undergo further cost optimisation. Lastly, the sustainable and cost optimised LCCA
model consists of recommendations and measures intended for a new age of sustainable
highway projects in Malaysia.

Abstract: The culture of business construction, which currently focuses on winning new
project tenders and revenue based on terms, is significantly affected when activity restrictions
occur. What happened during the pandemic in 2019 noting that 25% of construction companies
could not survive the pandemic. As a result, various innovations need to be deployed to save
the business from bankruptcy, so that new revenue streams are needed outside of the ongoing
business, one of which is the development of social media. Social media has an increasingly
prominent role in impact interactions, and it has been proven that this sector does not experience
a decline when almost all sectors are bad in the pandemic era. This research will examine how
social media can have an impact on the construction industry, not only increasing participation
and driving public opinion but can also be a new revenue stream for companies. This research
will focus on companies engaged in toll road infrastructure developer in Indonesia. The case
study was designed to combine both qualitative and quantitative methods. The results show that
the use of social media in infrastructure development businesses that focus on corporate
branding can be developed into a new revenue stream with a content focus, namely project
progress, educational shows, and the use of technology impact the influence and awareness.

Abstract: Soil shear strength is an essential engineering characteristic used in designing and
evaluating geotechnical structures. In this study, we intend to analyse and compare the
performance of the Genetic Algorithm - Adaptive Network-based Fuzzy Inference System
(GANFIS) and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) in predicting the strength of soft clay. Case
studies of 45 bag plastic soft clay soil samples from Sarang Buaya, Semerah, Malaysia, were
utilised to generate training and testing datasets for developing and validating models. RMSE
and R have been employed to validate and compare the models. The GANFIS has the highest
prediction capability (RMSE=0.042 and R=0.850), while the ANN has the lowest
(RMSE=0.065 and R=0.49). From a comparison of the two models, it can be stated that
GANFIS is the most promising technique for predicting the strength of soft clay.

seramai 144 responden dikalangan pelajar politeknik. Data dikutip dengan cara mengedarkan
soal selidik secara “google form” menggunakan teknik Pensampelan Bertujuan. Data yang
diperoleh telah dianalisis dengan mengunakan perisian SPSS v.23 untuk analisis deskriptif bagi
mendapatkan nilai skor min. Hasil kajian mendapati responden bersetuju menerima telefon
pintar untuk pembelajaran. Responden juga bersikap positif terhadap telefon pintar untuk
pembelajaran dan bersetuju dengan penggunaan telefon pintar untuk pembelajaran pada masa
hadapan. Walaupun begitu, ianya pada tahap sederhana. Penerimaan telefon pintar yang
sederhana terhadap pembelajaran dan sikap yang sederhana terhadap telefon pintar untuk
pembelajaran masa kini dan masa akan datang menggambarkan pelajar tidak menggunakan
sepenuhnya telefon pintar untuk tujuan akademik dan pencarian ilmu pengetahuan. Pelajar
mungkin menggunakan telefon pintar untuk tujuan lain yang kurang bermanfaat seperti hiburan
dan permainan video. Pelajar perlu diberi pendedahan oleh ibubapa, guru-guru dan orang yang
lebih dewasa tentang pelbagai manfaat yang boleh pelajar perolehi dari penggunaan telefon
pintar dengan cara yang betul. Perisian pembelajaran yang menarik dan interaktif, yang boleh
dilayari melalui telefon pintar juga perlu dibangunkan oleh pihak yang bertanggungjawab bagi
menarik perhatian pelajar terhadap pembelajaran dalam.
