So now we're going to look at our site design for the office park.
We've concentrated on getting our building layouts correct.
We have two floor layouts and the roof layout, but there's going to be more than one of these offices.
We're going to be developing a whole office park site here.
So now we're going to concentrate on the actual site layout.
We have some markups in the resource folder, so this first one.
This is just a general kind of site location drawing, so imagine.
There's a greenfield site, a field somewhere all over is at the moment is a road running through this
greenfield and.
We've been given a section of it to build our office port, so we'll probably be working with a surveyor
here and we'll be given something like a coordinate and some dimensions of where our site is so we can
start our design.
And then what we will do, we will flesh out the basic site layout, put some more coordinates on that
which we can then give to a surveyor.
A surveyor will go to site and stake out the site and that becomes our site to work on will then look
at creating the actual design of the layout in terms of a car park and things like that and where the
offices are going.
And then we'll bring in our offices and we'll use it.
We'll use an extra for that.
An external reference will bring him out of the offices and put them in.
And this process is going to let us look at.
Quite a few techniques, so we're going to be as an experts for the officers, we're going to be using
coordinates for plotting things out.
We're going to be using some arrays.
We're probably going to use some.
We're giving you some blocks for the landscaping.
And it's going it's going to be a good exercise for them kind of skills.
One thing I will say.
Up until now, we've been working in MM.
And that's normal, at least in the U.K., that's normal.
I know in Europe, some places are first centimeters.
In the US, it's 15 inches.
It's the same process.
You obviously familiar with whatever units use in your country, but it is the same process we've been
through.
If you've done our beginner's course, but in this example, where we've used millimeters of the building
layout for the site layout, you would usually be meters.
And so this gives us a good opportunity, you probably will come across this difference in scale.
So we're going to be really into that in this example, and it gives us a good opportunity to show you
how to work with different things like that.
So.
This is our kind of site location plan, and it's in meters and this is in your resource folder.
And if we zoom in all, we've always been given here.
Is one coordinate now, if rounded up in this case in real life, this would generally be all sorts
of jumbled numbers, it's not going to be exact.
Let's make it easy.
I've made it a hundred thousand by 50000 and we'll go for what that means in the first chapter and we'll
lay out this site location.
But we are going to have this issue of meters of millimeters, so we're going to show how to work with
that.
And we're going to go through the process from start to finish, so we're going to pretend we've got
a team of surveyors.
We're going to give them a survey trying to stake out.
Then we're going to create our site layout.
Then we're going to bring in now a different floor plans as external references and we'll create landscape
and car park and all that kind of stuff.
So gives us a very good range of topics to practice with.
And is the kind of a thing you would be doing in the real world in kind of a small.
Developer of construction company, so first off, we'll look at actually the information we're going
to receive in terms of a base plan and the this coordinate and how we can get a drawing of more coordinates
to give to the surveyor on site to stake out.
