Assignment No 3

Students will submit their chosen site that best describes their brief as proposed in Assignment No 2. Of course further development on the brief would be required at a later stage. This assignment is a development whereby the student will be acquainted to site properties, orientation, plot usage and coverage, existing constraints, mitigation factors, sustainability, water efficiency, energy, materials and resources and existing environment characteristics, in order to develop their master plan further to a sustainable development.

  2. Now its time to be more realistic with regards to your site and brief. Eg % of zoning and density of development, no of buildings heights size , parking, etc...

  3. NOTE: Please ensure that your brief is well defined and your methodology is clear and concise, bearing in mind that you should be able to a BOQ at a later stage. Ideas are great and putting it in practice is marvellous.

  6. This is the time for your to choose your site where later it wont be possible. The way you present your site with your brief should be sustainble. make sure all details are relevant to the site context

  7. Sir choosing the site, does it mean that we can discard the site for assignment no.2 and use a new site of our choice ?

  8. Well if you think that the site is good then go for it, as this would be the last time that you are changing site.

  23. hi sir, the amendments that we rae going to implement on the site project can be totally different from that of assignment 2 or partly is sufficient?? thanks in advance.

  24. As from Assignment No 3 you will not be able to make further amendments to the site. Your layout may be improved as long we proceed in the module. Now if you wish to change your site at a later stage, it may complicate matters and your deadline for assignments may be breached.
