辅导 building materials and methodologies employed in residential construction讲解 留学生SQL语言

Purpose

The purpose of this assignment is to provide students with a deeper comprehension of the building materials and methodologies employed in residential construction. Additionally, it aims to familiarise them with the primary legal requirements associated with residential developments.

Instructions

The assessment should cover two main tasks. To initiate the research report, begin by investigating and identifying two different types of residential accommodation (such as houses, townhouses, duplexes, etc.) located in close proximity to Stockland Burleigh Heads Shopping Centre, 149 W Burleigh Rd, Burleigh Heads QLD 4220. Avoid selecting apartment units or buildings that exceed three stories in height.

Begin by establishing a 3-kilometer radius around Stockland Burleigh Heads Shopping Centre and pinpoint the two types of residential building typologies within this defined area (include this image in the submission).

Task 1: (Approximately 500 to 1000 words in total. Be concise)

For each accommodation type selected above, compile a list of materials used for the following building elements:

· Structural Elements

Clearly describe which materials were used for the building structure (e.g., brick veneer, double brick, timber frame, steel frame, etc.). Provide a justification for why you think these structural materials were used. Use real estate images and historical images sourced from Nearmap to support your conclusions. Refer to lecture topics 5 and 6.

· Roof and Wall Cladding Materials

Provide at least two types of wall cladding materials and one roof cladding material used in each type of accommodation. Be specific in this section and do further research to learn which are the most commonly used cladding products in SEQ. Note that describing a material simply as brick cladding or timber cladding will not be enough to fulfill the requirements of this section. Specify the type of timber or fibre cement cladding material (e.g., timber weatherboard, or fibre cement sheeting), even stating the manufacturer if this can be identified. Visit the James Hardie’s website to learn which are the most commonly used FC cladding materials in Australia. Refer to lecture topic 7.

· Windows and Doors

Describe the materials and types of windows and doors used in the subject buildings. Refer to lecture topic 7.

· Floor Coverings (Internal and External)

Describe at least two different floor coverings. Make sure to specify the type of materials, stating the type of tiles, carpet, and other floor covering materials used in the building. You are not required to state the dimensions or format of the materials. Refer to lecture topic 10.

· Internal Wall Linings

Describe the internal wall linings used in wet areas and main living spaces. Refer to lecture topics 8 and 9.

· Joinery Materials

Describe at least three joinery materials such as architraves, skirting boards, kitchen cabinets, etc. Refer to lecture topics 8, 9, and 10.

· Landscaping and External Work

Briefly describe two materials used for landscaping and external works. Refer to lecture topic 12.

Support the identification of materials by incorporating relevant images. This can be achieved by creating a concise table featuring an image of the material found in the property alongside another image of the same material sourced from online platforms to demonstrate their similarity. Accompany this visual representation with brief descriptions of each material in each section.

Additionally, select five (5) materials from those identified above (5 in total sourced from both types of accommodations) and compile a table outlining the potential sources of these materials. The suggested format includes Material, Supplier, Method of Delivery to Site, and Contractor/Tradesperson Installer. Your objective is to trace the possible suppliers of the materials used in constructing the building and identify the parties responsible for their installation (e.g. plumber, brick layer, carpenter, etc). Focus on local suppliers and contractors (Brisbane and Gold Coast)

It is essential to choose properties for which you can access a substantial amount of information online. Do not select properties older than 10 years that have not been renovated, as the materials used in such properties may be outdated and limited in variety. Utilise images from real estate listings to identify materials and finishes and note that you are not required to access the properties or take pictures yourself. All images can be sourced using platforms like Near Maps, RP Data, or other real estate websites.

Task 2: (Approximately 800 to 1300 words in total)

Pick one type of accommodation from the two addresses analysed in Task 1 to examine the legal framework related to its design. Refer to Lecture Topic 2 notes and Seminar materials for guidance on key areas of focus. Thoroughly explore and report on the following:

· Local Authority Planning Laws: Indicate the following for the property:

o Applicable City Plan overlay maps.

o City Plan zoning (e.g., low density, medium density).

o Required setbacks, maximum building height, site coverage, etc.

· Required Site Documentation:

o Identify the relevant RP/SP (Registered/Survey Plan) for the property.

o Identify possible covenant documents (if applicable).

o Identify possible easements on site or nearby (if applicable).

· Supplementary Resources:

Identify any additional resources that can provide further insights into the site (e.g., site area, vegetation, terrain characteristics, soil condition, Development Application Approvals, etc.).

Concisely explain the legal and site-specific factors that must be taken into account for this building to adhere to mandated building guidelines and rules at the selected address.

Provide examples of documents and resources consulted to determine the permissible constructions for the site. Utilise tools like the Gold Coast City Plan map, RP data, and other pertinent sources to successfully complete this task.

Note: Ensure that the information provided in this section is specific to the site/address selected. Avoid providing general information sourced from online platforms. Be concise.

Additional Guidelines:

Ensure that the research conducted for both tasks meets academic standards. Utilise either the APA or Harvard referencing style for all information sources in your report (refer to iLearn Ultra resources on academic writing for guidance). Remember to properly reference any resources obtained from online or direct providers.

For your submission, provide a cover page with your name, student ID number, and the assignment's title. Focus solely on addressing the two tasks and maintain relevance and conciseness in your responses. If the assignment is completed in groups of two, only one student should submit it on iLearn. Both students will receive the same mark. Groups of more than two students will not be allowed (no exceptions).

Submit your assessments by 4 p.m. on the due date. Note that the maximum word count for this report is approximately 2,500 words (excluding references). Keep in mind the importance of clear and succinct academic writing with summative reporting. Submissions exceeding the word count by more than 10% will incur penalties.

As per the submission policy, late submissions will be subject to a 10% penalty per day if received after the specified due date and time stated on the assignment cover page.

Mark Breakdown:

As mentioned earlier, this assignment constitutes 20% of the subject's overall grade. The marking breakdown is as follows:

Grades will be apportioned within the expectations of the following standards:
