The investigation methods used for a site survey involve a walk over survey and a desktop survey, a walk over survey is a survey which is conducted when a person walks around the land and examines the soil and the structure of the land, a desktop survey is a survey which is conducted at a desk inside and it uses paper based or internet search records such as online maps and other records. The budget of £25 million should mostly be spent on the investigation methods as everything needs to be exact otherwise it could cause complications which could be costly such as the foundations being put in the wrong place or the wrong foundations being used. Building and planning permissions, this is when the local authority websites have an online database …show more content…
Another feature is the archaeological features which means that if there were any historical buildings or assets the budget would need to be used to pay for the archaeologists to come and uncover the site as the remains of old buildings or assets are protected under the planning law, also the course of the water needs to be planned as the rainfall on the site will be above average at 1250mm per year therefore development needs to be within reach of the flood …show more content…
Another desktop survey that can be conducted is an online address search which means that you enter the address of the site and it shows public documents that are connected to that address, such as, previous site investigation reports, historical values of properties and average value of property in the area, the county court judgements and the previous use of the building. This will help with the design of the building as the constructors and archaeologists will know what kind of area they will have to build on and what kind of complications that they may face as it could affect the timescale and use more of the budget, this would be bad as the budget is only £25 million and it is a big area which means that a lot of the budget will be used to do a site investigation therefore they won’t have as much money to spend on the
I believe that we should continue with construction on the Rio Salado Project because of all its benefits to the valley area. The plan I am proposing is comprehensive of many plans already proposed since Rio Salado was first an idea over 30 years ago. The difference is that my plan combines the positive features of many different plans to make a new one. This includes ensuring that Town Lake provides a safe environment for all activities, providing flood control, encouraging development along the river, promoting recreation, improving the regional quality of life, attaining the economic benefits of the area, while still maintaining the historical content of the area.
Investigating Why Developers Prefer to Built on Greenfield Sites Rather than Brownfield Sites Many businesses and industries prefer developing green fields to avoid the complications involved with Brownfield’s, specifically with development in urban areas. Extensive development of green fields particularly combined with underdevelopment of Brownfield’s and other infill properties can intensify problems of urban sprawl. Developers prefer Greenfield sites, despite the huge rise in land values, because they are straightforward and produce better returns at lower risk. In high-demand areas, such as the east of England around Cambridge, land costs more than £2m an acre. The trouble is, the biggest house builders still prefer to build on Greenfield sites, because Brownfield sites are much more expensive to develop.
As can be seen from the map (Figure 2), the sites have been selected for this analysis. Site 1 is Top carpark (55H 31044.20m E 5821325.06m S), which is located on the top of the Brimbank Park. Site 2 is Ford on Maribyrnong River (55H 309261.56m
The Graves family property is surrounded by the Acadia National Park on the North and East side. Their intentions were to divide their property into three lots and construct a house on the northern most part of the property. The contractor on the job recommended to use S.E. Downey to survey the land. The construction would include to install a septic system, drill a well, improve an existing road and provide power to the new home.
The need to reduce these imposts is a key driver for continued improvement in Council processes to streamline the approval of housing related development applications. There is a direct correlation between the cost of housing and the time it takes for Council approval to be obtained for a development. It is the intention of this project to isolate the unnecessary costs and, where possible, remove them from the assessment process.
To ground this discussion one case that I will be referring to is a planned hydro-electric project in Chile. The proposed five dams are to be located in the Aysen region of Chile in sout...
Having a large sample size in a survey does not assure accurate statistics. What really matters is the sample diversity. For example: you wanted to find out how many of your workmates watch football, it would be foolish to only survey the men in your office and assume that the statistic applies for all the company’s employees. In order to get accurate statistics, you would have to expand the survey to include the female employees and the workers in other company offices.
...ments. Geospatial technologies, such as LiDAR, can assist in mapping the flood vulnerability of particular areas. There is a wealth of information from the federal agencies, such as flood hazard maps developed by FEMA and sea level rise calculators. This information can also be used proactively to identify locations where restoration could be most effective and to discourage development in areas that still have their natural coastlines in tact. In some cases, structures can be updated to be more hurricane and flood proof by as using stronger materials and building at higher elevations. Buildings can also be designed to allow flooding to occur with minimal damage. Another alternative is to actually relocating people and buildings in the most high-risk areas. This will be exceedingly difficult as population increases and demand for coastal development is on the rise.
Construction can be very expensive due to the need for material, amount, and labor. The price becomes even more severe when considering the cost of preservation and upkeep. Weather and other forms of erosion eventually deteriorate monuments over a long period of time, requiring extensive reconstruction. This process requires more material and labor hours, steadily increasing the already monumental expense. These factors can be detrimental to an unprepared monument.
The beauty of the structure is remarkable and needs to be looked upon not just architecturally but as a historically site as

The building is still historically valued: “today it is both a grade I listed building and a scheduled ancient monument”
The first day we got to know each other. We did a few different interest survey. Mark is a fifteen years old student at Zanesville High School. He has four older brothers and one older sister. His hobbies include sports, video games, sleep, and watching the walking dead. His favorite sport is football. When asked will he go out for the team he said no. he said, “I just enjoy playing with me friends in my backyard”. I redirected from friendly questions and moved on to academics questions. I had him feel out a survey about reading. His favorite types of books are about ghost and zombies. It was interesting to me that he did not read on his own. Another interesting fact was that he enjoyed reading in class. I know that is a good fact. What
The people of Bangladesh suffer so much from flooding because of the location of Bangladesh, population, monsoon climate, wealth of people/country, lack of emergency services, low amount of food and unclean water and loss of life and injures caused by diseases and flooding. The government have developed a Flood Action Plan, but this plan to reconstruct the whole country will definitely be very difficult because of the inundating amount of problems.
The sampling design process includes five steps which are closely related and are important to all aspect of the marketing research project. The five steps are: defining the target population; determining the sample frame; selecting a sampling technique; determining the sample size; and executing the sampling process.
