1. Introduction (Student Name : Chee Huei Ying)
The name of the building is Kiara Indah Condominium which is located at Paya Terubong area
in Penang Island. The address is Tingkat Paya Terubong 1, Kiara Indah Condominium,Ayer Itam,
11060 Pulau Pinang. The building consists of 13 floors and 72 units in total. The building is 850
square feet per unit. The building is used to provide shelter to humans.
2. Roof (Student Name : Chee Huei Ying)
Figure 1: Roof
Materials: roof tiles - clay
Properties:
1. It is a natural thermal mass insulator.
2. High durability.
3. High sustainability.
4. Long-lasting.
5. Smooth surface.
Advantages:
1. Can recycled by reuse clay to make tiles.
2. Resist wind.Because clay has has natural air ventilation due to its high porosity.
3. Easy to repair.Because clay tiles have high durability.
4. Natural.It is because clay is a natural material composed from fine minerals.
5. Good stability because clay possessed small voids and pores to capable in retaining water.
Disadvantages:
1. Heavy. So we need to ensure that the framing and structure of roof can support the clay.
2. Fragile and crack easily when in moisture places. The moisture can penetrate into the pores
and expand when in hot weather and promote cracking.
3. High cost. Clay roof tiles are expensive than concrete tiles.
4. Hard to install. Because we need to have a right pattern and techniques to fit the roof and
also ensure there is not any moisture will go into the clay roof tiles.
Usage:
Clay can used to make earth plaster. It used to cover interior and exterior of structures of
materials. Besides, clay is one of the components in building bricks. It mixed with other
components to make good quality of bricks.Clay can used to make furnitures. They formed,
dried and burned in kiln to make in dry form.

1. Good compressive strength
2. Easily produced
3. Economical
4. Good insulation properties
5. Good conductor of sound
Disadvantages:
1. Have a high carbon footprint due to the presence of the concrete which will release
large amounts of carbon dioxides into the atmosphere during its production process
2. Not very ductile
