AD5604_Semester2_Assignment: The A0 General arrangement plan drawing in Autocad is set as meter in unit and drawing scale is 1:200 attached as .dwg file. Same as the A1 vegetation planting details which is also set as 1:200 drawing scale and meter for drawing unit which are both converted to be pdf file for assignment submission. Another two A1 section drawing and technical drawing are hand-drawn in paper based. There is a change of location of the building from previous design in semester 1. The chalets are now located at the small hill and between the two lightmoor pool. Residents can enjoy the panoramic view and surround by the natural beauty scenery at the site. The Proposed contour level for chalets are 172.2, 179.35 and 181.55 respectively with the spot height are 179.3, 186.55 and 188.35 respectively. There is steep slope in between the chalets area on the hiil slope, the gradient is 1:1.07 which belong to the vertical cut slope and retaining wall is needed and need to make sure the slope cut in rock and very well-cement soil to make sure it is stable in long term. The highest contour level remains 193 at the site with a green garden path built at 190.2 for people to go for a walk and enjoy the view. The walking path is connected green garden path and to the cycling path for people to walk up and down and to the lightmoor pool area. A retention basin is set at the Western edge of the site at coutour level 178.2 to control surface runoff and prevent flooding as impermeable surface coverage increases after the construction. A bride is built crossing the retention basin so people can go for a walk on the way to the lightmoor pool. A green area is set in between the chalets and the cycling path at 174.2 and two glasshouse are there for special tree species. Next to the cycling path is the pedestrian paving and there is also the maple zone at contour level 172.2. A variety of maple such as Acer Platanoides, Acer Campestre and Acer Pseudoplatanus and a mix with to other plants such as willow and alder will be planted along the path. People can enjoy the walk and a nice red maple view during autumn. Cycling Path is still the same all the way connected to the ancient woodland. The cycling path is constructed at 172.2 but will have a follow the natural topography between 168-170 contour level at the woodland area and the existing cycling path. Cycling shop and bike parking are located at the NE side of the site. Cycling path pass through the cycling shop which is convenient for people to hire and return bike for leisure activity.
