First step of site selection process
Confirm readiness : emphasizes that decision made during the feasibility study should be reviewed and validated prior to commencing detailed site investigations (formal/informal)
Second step of site selection
Develop the work plan – reviews the development of a work plan and a communications plan and the selection of the evaluation criteria.
Forth step of site selection
Evaluate long list – focuses on the analysis of the long list to identify the top three (3) sites for the project.
Fifth step of site selection
Evaluate short list/recommend site(s) – describes the detailed evaluation process to develop the recommendation for site selection.
Third step of site selection
Conduct search for sites – starts the real work of collecting and analysing data, finalizing the delineated area and evaluation factors, advertising for sites, and compiling all offers to be evaluated.
5 conclusion of site collection
-Involves the comparative analysis of potential sites.
-Need to consider a lot of factors.
-Suitable site dispersed across the world.
-Site selection study determines which property is best suited to accommodate the client’s development program/project.
-Potential problems should be identified before the site is acquired
Market studies provide information on:
-Competition for selling or renting comparable properties.
-Reveal consumer preferences for site building features or amenities.
Site analysis according to Lynch
-preparatory step to site planning
-primarily deals with basic data as it relates to a specific site
Goals of site analysis
1.Achieving a successful design (site analysis is a MUST) and should be done carefully.
2.Taking an inventory of site elements and analyzing these factors relative to the client needs and aims.
3.Gathering relevant information about the properties of the site, from topography to climate to wind pattern, vegetation, etc.
4.Analyzing these features and incorporating them into the design.
Primary data
-Type of data that is collected directly from main resources
-originates
-interview,survey
Secondary data
-Data that has already been collected through primary sources
-readily available for researchers
-been collected in the past
Example of secondary data
-site plan
-site background
-land status
Factors in site analysis
-natural/physical factors
-biological factors
-Cultural factors
What is topography and 3 important elements
The study of the forms and features of land surface
1. Elevation
2. Slope
3. Cross section
Elevation in topography
-distance above sea level
-in meters or feet
-can be shown on maps by contour lines, which connect points with the same elevation, by bands of colour or by numbers giving the exact elevations of particular points on the earth surface
-only topo map has elevation
-most of the world people live on coastal plains at elevations of 150 meters (500 feet) or less
- (5334m>) the climate becomes too cold for growing crops and there is also not enough oxygen in the air to sustain human life
Slope in topography
-measure of its steepness
-most important morphological attributes which helps in studying the surface configuration of the terrain
-degree of slope affects: flow of running water,amount of surface run-off,intensity of soil erosion
-controls surface materials and weathering processes
Cross section in topography
-provides a side view or profile of a landscape
GPP pembangunan kawasan built dan tanga tinggi
Lowland: <150m
Hill land: 150m-300m
Highlands (tanah tinggi) : 300m-1000m
Highlands (gunung): >1000m
Slope analysis
An analytic process made on a topographic map that produces an overall pattern of slopes
To help planner determine the best uses for various portions of the site
Geology
-refer to the study of earth
-interior and exterior surface
-changes that we can anticipate will take place in the near future
Soil
-have different characteristics that make them unique
-knowing what kind of soul helps determine it’s strength and weakness
Good drainage
-soil ability to transfer gravity water downward
-and the soil is not conducive to prolonged periods of saturation
Poor drainage
