BAM property Design Contest #9

Abstract

A commercial architecture consists of a community mall and home offices. The project’s main concept concerns the lack of activities around the given site. The project tackles the main issues of underdevelopment by aiming to bring back the liveliness of the local people back by integrating work-life symbolism and natural spaces, resulting in an interesting design.

Objective

โปรเจคตามหลักสูตรออกแบบสถาปัตยกรรม 4 ชั้นปีที่ 3 เพื่อเปิดโอกาสให้นักศึกษาได้แสดงความรู้ ความสามารถ รวมถึงความคิดสร้างสรรค์ด้านการออกแบบ สําหรับการลงทุนเพื่อการพัฒนาที่ดิน ให้เป็น พื้นที่เชิงพาณิชย์พร้อมบ้านพักอาศัย ให้มีความพิเศษและน่าสนใจ ตามแนวคิด Concept Green & Digital

THE DEVELOPMENT OF DENDROCALAMUS ASPER BLENDED FIBER FOR ECO-FRIENDLY TEXTILE PRODUCT DESIGN

This research confirms the potential of bamboo fiber as a sustainable raw material for the textile industry, demonstrating exceptional properties that meet both functional requirements and environmental friendliness. The study focuses on integrating sustainability concepts with material innovation, encompassing fiber property analysis, production process development, and product design. The research objectives were to: 1) develop the properties of bamboo fiber for production; 2) study factors in designing environmentally friendly textile products from bamboo fiber; and 3) forecast future prospects for environmentally friendly textile product design using bamboo fiber. The findings revealed that 60-day-old bamboo possessed optimal properties for fiber separation, with an average fiber size of 5.32 μm, smaller than other natural fibers, resulting in superior moisture absorption and ventilation properties. When blended with recycled polyester fiber in a 30:70 ratio, the yarn exhibited strength and unique tactile characteristics. Although the antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus were low, the fibers demonstrated excellent whiteness and softness. Factor analysis identified four key components in product design: Local Materials, Green Products, Healthy, and Sustainability. Consumer satisfaction evaluation of the prototype products showed high levels of acceptance, with the model explaining 84.7% of consumer satisfaction. The developed production process reduced chemical usage and hazardous waste. Furthermore, utilizing fast-growing bamboo minimized long-term environmental impact, contributing to sustainable development in Thailand's rural communities across economic, environmental, and occupational stability dimensions. The research demonstrates that developing bamboo fiber blended with recycled polyester creates sustainable products that meet consumer demands for health consciousness, local material utilization, and green product promotion. Commercial implementation of these products can enhance economic value and promote environmentally friendly product development in the future.

Distributed Control System for Boiler in Sugar Plants

This cooperative education report presents a project for developing a Distributed Control System (DCS) for boilers in a sugar factory. The objective is to enhance the control system for boilers 1-8 to operate cohesively within the DCS framework provided by ABB, utilizing the ABB Ability™ System 800xA software. The overall functionality of the system involves creating a control program that begins with the utilization of bagasse, a byproduct from the sugar extraction process, as fuel for the boiler. The program manages various operations of the boiler, including the intake of air into the combustion chamber, the internal functioning of the boiler, and the treatment of flue gases before their release into the atmosphere. The project encompasses the development of the DCS program, the design and creation of HMI display graphics, the study and design of the boiler control system, the documentation of the project, and the control processes utilizing the ABB Ability™ System 800xA software, culminating in the operational outcomes.

"Blood D": Application and Campaign for Physically and Mentally Preparation of Thai Red Cross’s Blood Doner

In the world of blood donation, there are 2 types of people: those who donate blood and those who don't. Most campaigners emphasize how to persuade more people to donate blood and recruit more new blood donors. We believe that even though such focus is important, there're more critical aspects that might have been neglected, which is: for those who have already made up their minds to be blood doners, will they be successful in donating when the time comes? According to our studies, only 63 % of attempted doners are successful. Regrettably, 37 % has to go home disappointed as their bodies are not fit for the conditions required by Red Cross medical staff at blood donation centers (which include some most basic preparations such as low-fat food intake and 8-hours sleep on the night before). Our campaign, ‘Blood in Need, Buddy Indeed’, focuses on 2 aspects. Firstly, to persuade more people to donate blood. Secondly, for those who have made up their minds to donate blood, we will provide necessary support (both body and mind) so that they are fully prepared and successful in donating blood when the time comes via networks of systems, staffs and the newly designed and prototype of the application ‘Blood D’. Our campaign covers the whole ‘before/during/after’ experience of users (as blood doners). Support includes assessment of their current condition whether they are within the requirement of Red Cross Blood Bank. ‘Blood D’ will also provide relevant information on blood donating events, such as locations, and time booking. Once sign-up, the application “Blood D” will sent friendly reminder and clear infographic on how to prepare their bodies as daily notifications during the 7 days countdown. This is to ensure that the users’ blood will be ‘D’ (homophone of the Thai word ‘ดี’ which mean ‘good’ and at the same time playing on the word ‘ Buddy’) or be the ‘good blood’ that can save lives for those in need. After organizing 4 blood donation events both within and outside the KMITL. The numbers of successful blood doners have increased from 63 % to 78 % (this number is the average of 4 events, with the most successful event of 89%). The campaign has won the first runner up in national blood donation campaign competition. It is highly anticipated that once the application “Blood D” is fully launched, it will help increase the amount of blood collected up to 15% with the same numbers of existing doners.
