What's made you grumpy today?

Its a piece of group coursework that is a site investigation. I have been given 2 parts that i have to write about the site. The form of the site i.e. height, size, shape and mass of buildings, what materials its made out of, what the roads are like on the site, what landmarks are in the area and if it has access to views.

I also have to write about the climate in the area which is imbloodypossible. I need to include the orientation of the sun, shadow patterns,wind patterns, what micro climates are created in the area due to the forms of the buildings.

Bloody impossible :bang:

google it?

sounds it
this a site you have only being to once?

i can sort of imagine what you need a wind tunnle

Its a site right next to my uni. I know it but the level of info needed is practially impossible to put in. I mean the climate one is just stupid, there is no way i can answer some of the stuff they are asking about. They want to know about the seasonal weather pattern, how do they expect me to know that? Id have to stand there all year round to find that out.

 

[CLXCraig]

Surely you'd have to spend all day on site doing research and taking notes.

 

[Focus Owner]

i would have thought they would have given you the data
he needs at least a few bits of data
for a year

 

[punto_matt]

nope we are expected to get it for ourselfs. Fair enough on the form part of it as i can see that for my own eyes but climate is ****ing impossible.

Course you don't, there must be loads of information out there about weather in Sheffield/ Yorkshire, look at the way it's aligned on a mapping program and a lot you can extrapolate from there.

they just want to know how convincing your bull is. So all you have to do is make it up so its believable, like 90% of jugs posts

 

[punto_matt]

ahh but what if the wind patterns change due to climate change bringing in more severe winds increase in Turbulence and increasing the risk of structural damage

 

[punto_matt]

[CLXCraig]

And a ladies hair getting messed up on the way in from her car.. Shouldnt it be about weathering effects from wind and rain on the buildings
