EGB123 Civil Engineering Systems Semester 2, 2020 Civil Engineering Study Area Investigation Brief 1. Introduction 1.1 Overview This assessment item includes six tasks that relate to the six sub-disciplines of civil engineering that are covered in EGB123. You are to complete the assessment in a team of three (3). Each team member is required to lead two tasks as follows: Table 1.1 Study Area Investigation Task Leaders

1 (insert name)

Team member (insert student id)

2 (insert name)

(insert student id)

Task A. Road Network Planning and Design B. Environmental Management C. Urban Water Cycle Management

Task D. Public Utility Plant E. Bridge Structure F. Bridge Approach

Each of the assignment tasks is detailed below in context of the overall study area investigation.

1.2 Assessment During the course of your investigation you will need to work as a team because many areas of your investigation (see your report template) require evidence of team involvement. Your EGB123 tutor/marker will assess this teamwork by examining your team’s whole submission in a coordinated manner. This team component of your assessment totals 20% and will be allocated to all three members of the team as shown in Table 1.2. The Rubric that will be used for this marking will be included on the Turnitin portal of the unit’s Blackboard site. In addition to your team mark, each of your team will receive a score out of 15% that is directly reflective of the quality of your individual lead components according to Table 1.1. This marks allocation is shown in Table 1.2.

1.3 This Document as Your Submission Template The tasks below include tables that are partially filled with necessary content in black lettering. You are required to complete the table/s for each of your tasks by populating its blank cells with your responses in by lead team member in green lettering.

1.4 Submission The due date is the close of Blackboard Assignment, Sunday 13 September 2020. Each team shall submit only one completed version of this template, with all members’ names and student numbers incorporated in Table 1.1 above. It shall be submitted as a single PDF file via EGB123’s Blackboard Assignment portal.

2.0 Task A Road Network Planning and Design A small residential neighbourhood street sub-catchment identified in this document as Meadowlands is located in the north east of the suburb of Carindale and is shown in Figure 2.1 and has a developed area of 0.37km2. Each occupied allotment contains a single-family detached dwelling. Meadowlands is bounded to the south and east by Carindale Recreational Reserve, to the north by Meadowlands Road, and to the west by Baynes Street and Carindale Recreational Reserve.

Complete the following Table 2.1 to determine the number of dwellings (i.e. driveways) on each street and the average number of vehicles per day generated by dwellings on each street (assuming a trip generation rate of 9.5veh/day-dwg). (In each cell, round to nearest: 1 dwg, 1 veh/day.) Table 2.3 Streets, their Dwellings and Classifications in Meadowlands Residential Neighbourhood Subcatchment

Based on your results from Table 2.1, and considering the estimated distribution provided at the critical end/s of each street, complete the following Table 2.2 to determine the total street catchment dwellings served and the average number of vehicles per day generated at critical end/s by street. (Hint: You will need to consider the network topology to estimate non cul-de-sac streets’ own catchments.) EGB123 Civil Engineering Systems: Semester 2, 2020 SAI Brief

Meanwhile, use your engineering judgment to classify each street according to Brisbane City Council’s road hierarchy classification. Based on the estimation of vehicles per day generated at the critical end/s of each street, comment on whether it is acceptable to the road hierarchy classification you have assigned. (In each cell, round to nearest: 1 dwg, 1 veh/day.) Table 2.4 Critical Ends by Street in Meadowlands Residential Neighbourhood Sub-catchment

3.0 Task B Environment Management The small residential neighbourhood street sub-catchment of Meadowlands in the north east of the suburb of Carindale from Task A above applies to this task. With your team having already determined the number of dwellings in Task A, complete the following Table 3.1 to determine the waste transfer task for Meadowlands assuming: one household per dwelling and an average household size of 3.2 persons/dwg, and the specific values provided in the table. For the bottom two rows, use your engineering judgment and online information available about waste management in Brisbane to identify destinations of collected waste (hint: locations of certain facilities include Acacia Ridge, Chandler, Rochedale, Rocklea). (In each cell, round to nearest: 1 svc, 1 kg/hh/yr, 1 kg/svc/yr, 0.1 kg/svc/clct, 0.01 t/clct, 0.01 load/clct.) Table 3.6 Waste Transfer Task in Meadowlands Residential Sub-catchment Measure

Table 3.2 provides proportionalities for waste types that can be considered typical of this form of neighbourhood sub-catchment. For Meadowlands, and based on the EGB123 Civil Engineering Systems: Semester 2, 2020 SAI Brief

results of Table 3.1, use these proportionalities to determine the annual tonnages by waste type produced and their relative percentages. (In each cell round to nearest 0.1 t/yr or 0.1%.)
