Take-home Exercise 2
In this exercise, you are tasked to identify a location suitable for building a national Communicable Disease Quarantine Centre. The selected site must be located at Gombak planning subzone, with a contiguous area of at least 10,000m2 and it must meet the following decision factors:
- Economic factor: The selected site should avoid steep slope. This is because construction at steep slope tends to involve a lot of cut-and-fill and will lend to relatively higher development costs.
- Accessibility factor: The selected site should be close to existing local roads, namely: service roads and tracks. This is to ensure easy transportation of building materials during the construction stage.
- Health risk factor: The selected site should be away from population i.e. housing areas and offices in order to avoid disease spreading to the nearby population.
- Natural conservation factor: The selected site should be away from forested land, park, and water.
Maps depicting the target features within Gombak - Roads, Buildings, Natural Areas and Slope
The following map images depict factors taken into consideration for building a national Communicable Disease Quarantine Centre within Gombak. The four key factors are as follows - Accessibility Factor (Roads), Economic Factor (Slope), Health Risk Factor (Buildings) and Natural Conservation Factor
Accessibility Factor (Roads)
Economic Factor (Slope)
Health Risk Factor (Buildings)
Natural Conservation Factor
