Abstract
The basic idea of the project is to design a 4-star hotel in Sabastiya. It is well known that many Arab and foreign tourists travel to Sabastiya many reason including recreational, therapeutic and religious reasons. Therefore, we selected the design of a hotel in this region to be our project. The project will include an integrated design of all aspects that we have learned over 5 years in the Faculty of Engineering. This means that the project will involve a study of the nature of the site, architectural, structural, electrical, environmental and mechanical design, and safety aspects. Architectural and environmental design will takes into consideration the orientation, form, spaces; fenestration will be designed based on environmental requirements. The structure will be designed using computer software where the analysis will include a 3-D model, soil structure interaction and dynamic analysis for seismic design. In addition, the project will be designed for fire safety using fire alarms, elevators, exits and other systems that may be important to provide public safety. The electrical design involves lighting systems, electrical wiring, and sockets, especially for high-power devices. The design will comprise mechanical and HVAC installations and plumbing. At the end of the project, a report which includes all design and analysis details will be submitted. The report contains table of quantities, cost estimate and shop drawings that can be implemented in practice.
