The rain garden captures water runoff and allows it to soak into the ground. after several purify processes such as infiltrating , filtering , sediment....then released to the city drainage system.The vegetation selected emphasizes conservation and use of local natural features which can tolerate wet and dry conditions.

There are four systems composed of the wooden deck, wooden paver coving, wooden bar, steel beam,and ground beam. The wooden deck is located near the riverside, as the foundation of the site is not solid, therefore the ground beam as the main structure system. As the heading and ending side of slope has various gradients to make axon drawing with relative elevation for the layout work.

Tree transfer issue In Taiwan, while a land was in the process of being developed , thousands of trees will be facing a transplant issue. Most of the trees died from transfer process. However, people in Taiwan care of trees a lot becacuse It's always sunny in Taiwan, trees provide shade for people form sunburn. Therefore many people condemn and fight for this issue.

Urban problems + How to create a system to saving and loading tree as a bank in the city ? + What are software and hardware devices will be needed?

As a tree park + In this treebank system, how to deal with human activity and tree’s transplantation?

Oreginal method The way the government deals with the tree transfer issue is to carry them to undeveloped land or marginal areas at suburban temporary, which is not a good approach for those of impaired trees because the location is too far from where the trees grow.

Museum system Trees Pattern The process of tree transplanting is the most crucial part deciding the life or death of the trees. Since then, this project uses the standard transplanting procedure as the basis of design development. There are four systems form this transplanting park, and they are dealing with the root, water, transportation, exhibition of this park.

All transplanted tree can be moved depends on their feature. 18

An effective transport system can cover every part in site.

Main water system followed Treebox display system from the main stucture. deal with trees' circulation continously.

The initial design action is zoning, using the diameter of the crane car’s working area as basis. As a result, the whole area is divided into five zones and the crane cars can locate any trees at any place. The next step is to arrange the irrigation system, which responds to such a changeable environment. After the irrigation system, is to construct a crane system extending out from the greenhouse so that it will be much easier to deploy trees and take care of the sick one.

Pattern of trees Controaling densities & activities

The tree box is a 5 meters by 5 meters unit. There are fixed tree boxes in the center and around the central area is the changeable tree boxes. The more central the changeable tree boxes is located, means the tree in it will be replaced more frequently.

Season is the main factor of the arrangement of the trees in park. The transplanting rate of spring and winter are usually lower than the rate of fall and summer. As long all different kinds of trees are move-in and move-out, the special character of this park will be different. This part is trying to prescribe a set of rules to control the arrangement of trees to form the activity space.

Tree hospital This south-located greenhouse is the threshold of whole transplanting park. Before moving a tree into the park, health examination is a necessary task. All the sick trees will be cured in the greenhouse and separated from the health trees. After the treatment, the trees shall be delivered into the park. In conclusion, this greenhouse contains ED unloading area,control room, treatment area Program and temporary area for tree. The greenhouse D. curing area E. office is a steel-structured building with crane system in it.

Detail of the tree box An empty tree box is a platform paved by punched-plate, with four columns at the button, by adding roofs or walls, people can conduct various activities in the tree box.There are several different types of tree box to contains from shallow-root to deep-root trees. Also, there is different equipment that can meet different need of different tree.

Irrigation system

With four pipes attach on, the tree box can water the trees around.

Glasses

Glass can show people the Soil condition and the underground environment that growing trees.
