Constructed Landscape Final Project Report

The document provides details of a final constructed landscape project to design a 10m x 10m green space between two buildings on campus. The group analyzed the site, including its location, existing conditions, circulation patterns, and shading. They developed a concept for a peaceful pocket park called Heiwa Park, taking inspiration from Japanese zen gardens. The proposed design includes dividing the space into different plant-based sections with paths and seating areas, along with a master plan, planting plan, construction details, and bill of quantities for the project.

Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park INTRODUCTION ! For Constructed Landscape’s final project assignment,we were required to form into a group of 6 which eventually consists of Shiko, Anna, Sue Hwa, Rozanna, Kayla and Pei Kei. As a group, we needed to select a 10 by 10 metres within campus and come up with a green space proposal to improve the landscape of the particular space, in the form of presentation boards and also a binded report which includes concept plan, master plan, planting plan, bill of quantities,construction detail as well as construction detail. To start off the project, we then visited several potential spots around campus but finally settled down on an empty balcony terrace space between Block C and Block D. The following are details of our green space proposal of the particular site. ! SITE ANALYSIS ! A. Location Plan The following is the location plan of our 10m*10m site which is located on a balcony terrace between Block C and Block D of Taylor’s Univesity Lakeside Campus. The site is adjacent to the Tourism Centre and the Legal Aid Centre and is accessible through a flight of stairs from Truffles Restaurant . The site is a16 by 10 metres slab of concrete balcony, complete with railing. 10m*10m site located on a balcony terrace between Block C and Block D.
Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park B. Site Specifications 1. Original Condition of the Site: 
 The front section of the site overlooks the commercial block as well as the lake. There are several trees plantations that stood upon the site, making the site slightly more shady while giving the site its secluded feeling as the trees obstruct the view from below. The back section of the site contains two doors as it is connected to Lecture Theater Hall 7 & 8. At the side of the back section of the site also includes several air conditioner ventilation machines. The right section of the site faces the Legal Aid Centre. There are glass panels of the office windows where the staff can look through from inside the office. The left section of the site faces the Tourism Centre. There are glass panels of the office windows where the staff can look through inside the office.

Lecture Hall 7 & 8 Tourism Centre LEGAL AID CENTRE STAIRS Human Circulation Wind Circulation Sun Circulation The flight of stairs leading to our site. The extended balcony is almost hidden from view by a covering of tall greenery, adding to its mystery. HUMAN: People can access the site by stairs and walk around the site and exit again by the stairs. ! WIND: The wind blows oppositely against the sun direction, which is from the West direction to East. ! SUN: The sun shone from the East to the West against the direction of the wind. With more sunlight directed at the middle section and more shady at the back,front and corner section.
Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park ! 3. Shading on Site: 
 ! The site is comparatively not as sunny and hot as open spaces as there is a tensioned textile coverage at the very top as shown in the above picture. However, during noon hour, approximately from 11am to 2pm, where the sun strikes at the middle, the site gets really sunny and hot as more sunlight gets through the tensioned textile, causing the middle section to be very sunny. The front section and the back section is relatively more sunny due to the trees plantation’ shading as well as the ceiling coverage at the back section. Thus more sun-tolerant plants and big shady plants should be planted in the middle section to provide shade, while more non-sun-tolerant plants should be planted near the front,back and corner as they could survive in a more shady setting. Middle section gets really sunny at noon, The trees plantations help cast shade at the front.
Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park CONCEPT: A PEaceful, Secluded pocket park ! After carrying out site analysis and observation, we came up with a concept that supported and complemented the characteristics of our site. Being high above ground level and highly enclosed by a fringe of trees, it is a protected haven of quiet seclusion. Taylor’s University Lakeside Campus could undoubtedly maximize potential and empty spaces such as this to the student’s and staff’s benefit, providing a small spot of simple pleasure to visitors. Our idea progression originated from the idea of ‘zen’, the idea of calm and serenity. Inspired further from the location of our site, which is wedged between two busy buildings, contributed to the idea of creating a small space of comfort. Easily accessible by the public but not a public display, the site was perfect for the concept we had in mind. A small pocket park with seating and walking spaces to unwind and relax was what we were aiming for. ! ! ! ! The Japanese garden depicting the balance between the graceful steps of the built environment in the natural one features the peaceful ambience that we would like to create. Lush greens paired with raw simplicity create a soothing atmosphere.
Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park ! Moving on from the pure Japanese sense of Zen, we considered circulation and walkways in our site. These are vital in creating a balanced built and natural landscape, fit for people to stroll carefree, forgetting about the chaos of life outside the site for a moment, to create their own world in our strip of greenery. We came up with ideas and concepts to make our site mobile, with a good circulation flow. Usage of different types and species of plants and hardscapes can also create different atmospheres and moods in the site, unified by the core principle of Zen and serenity, but interpreted in a contemporary, urban setting such as an urban pocket park. ! ! The Paley Pocket Park in New York City is one of our inspirations as it depicts simplicity yet manage to convey a sense of peace and calm, contradicting the hustle and bustle of the city life around it. Below are another few examples of our inspirations.
Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! The final design of the proposed site is a simplistic pocket park with an elevated section at the back section as shown in the image above. The reason why we elevate the back section was to create more layers in the space. Thus, from the upper elevated section has a different view and texture from the lower section, so that the visitors can have different experiences and perspective from the two different elevations. The lower layer is a slight elevated timber deck while the upper layer is an elevated concrete deck. Also to create more circulation in the space, we sectioned the space into several mini sections, so that it maximise the potential of interaction and circulation. With several types of shrubs and trees surrounding each section, it gives each space a private secluded feel yet not detaching them. ! Selecting a name for our site made us recall on its original meaning: safety, quiet and ease. After some research, we all agreed on the name Heiwa, a soft- sounding name that reminds one of still flowers and wet plants in the morning dew. In Japanese, the word Heiwa means peace and calm created by our site. Classic-sounding and suitable, Heiwa was our vote as the name of our small park. ! HEIWA: The Peace Park. Our tagline and vision. ! ! ! ! The right selection and ratio of wood and concrete, shrubs and bushes give the area an understated touch of quiet elegance and peace. This photo indirectly became one of our leading idea generators. “ Chinese characters depicting the meaning of peace and calm”

Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park ! ! MASTERPLAN Scale: 1:100 ! Design Concept: The 16 times 10 metre concrete site is divided subtly into three parts, namely the Jasmine Trail, the Wooden Lounge and Fern Forest, and lastly the Tea-olive Pods. Each section is elevated above the other, forming a slight hill upwards, creating a visually-pleasing organic shape. Moreover, each section is named differently due to the difference in the type of plants and also its role to play. The Jasmine Trail is a public benches, whereas the Wooden Lounge is a communal area for mingling crowds. The Fern Forest provide a shady corner seat for a couple of visitors, while the Tea-olive Pods are secluded, scented private seating areas. All of these small green spots inspire Heiwa, inspires peace. ! !

Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park ! Planting Concept: In the tropical, humid climate of our country, a variety of lush flowering greens are both functional and beautiful. From simplistic, native plants such as skinny birch to perfumed, flowering shrubs like jasmine and tea-olive, the palette for plants are diverse but united with one common theme: to enhance the natural element of this small pocket park. For example, the presence of ferns creates a cooling shade for visitors, whilst shrubs in a variety of height and textures provide privacy and ornamentation for the garden. Thus, Heiwa’s plants are selected for a justifiable reason from their individual aspect. When dealing with hardscape, Heiwa’s selection consists of materials that acts as a complement for its softscape and surroundings. Plain yet sturdy, concrete and gravel are used as the ‘foundation’ of the garden, forming the walking path. Besides that, teak wood in a shade of dark brown highlights the natural wood of the surroundings, while acting as a platform for visitors to sit, lounge and enjoy the view. The wood of the furniture also reflects the message Heiwa radiates as a peace park. All in all, the plant and material palette of Heiwa is a reflection of how humans should be one with all things green. ! ! ! CONSTRUCTION DETAILS Construction detail 1: ! Sheet Mulch Planting guide – 1 Gallon Planting guide – 4” plants
Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park ! ! ! ! At Heiwa, a wide variety of greens consisting of grass cover, shrubs and small trees create rather complex planting construction details. Techniques such as tree staking were used to prevent wind rock and movement of the roots. Movement can tear new roots, slowing down establishment, while sheet mulching is an agricultural no-dig gardening technique that attempts to mimic natural forests' processes. When deployed properly and in combination with other permacultural principles, it can generate healthy, productive, and low maintenance ecosystems. ! Construction Detail 2: ! ! ! ! !

Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park Wood decks have the capability of providing low-cost recreational space. The use of pressure-treated and durable lumber makes this outdoor structure as permanent and long-lasting as any indoor feature. Supporting joints, posts and decking lumber must be properly grade-marked and identified as naturally durable or pressure-preserved wood by quality control agencies approved by the building model codes. A few factors to consider during construction is the design, engineering, decking, railings and finishes. Orientation for sun exposure and the location of the platform is also an important aspect. !

Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park ! Maintenance PLAN ! A. SOFTSCAPE WORK: 1. Thai Bamboo • The bamboo patch will be fertilized with nitrogen fertilizer mainly manure and compost. Most preferably cow manure. • Bamboo patch will be watered 4 times per week • To control the rhizome running and maintain long term health the root pruning will be done annually 2. Jasmine shrub • Jasmine shrub bed will be watered weekly • Fertilize every 2-4 weeks during the growing season, around February until August. A water- soluble fertilizer designed for houseplant will be used • Major pruning will be done annually after flowering season to maintain the desired shape. Minor pruning will be done accordingly to remove dead or damaged branches. Prune to a maximum height of 60cm. 3. Tea Olive • Tea Olive will be watered less frequently, around 2 to 3 times a week, than the other plants as they are more droughts tolerant. • Annual fertilizing will be done with a complete fertilizer before spring. Slow-release nitrogen fertilizer to provide food throughout the growing season. • Pruning will be done annually in early spring to keep desired shape. Pruning for any dead and damaged branches will be done at the same time as well. 4. Ferns • The fern patch will be watered 4 times a week. • Fertilizing will be done during growing season, around 2 to 3 time a year. • Humus will be added to provide rich nutrient soil. !
Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park • No pruning needed for ferns 5. Tropical Birch • The trees will be watered 3 to 4 times a week to keep the trees sufficient supply of moisture. • Little pruning will be done as the trees will naturally grow into a desired pyramidal shape. Pruning for dead or damaged branches and low hanging branches that interferes with walkways. 6. Ficus Benjamnia • The ficus hedge will be watered 3 to 4 times weekly to maintain proper moisture. • Fertilizing will be done once a month during active growth with a slow release 10-10-10 fertilizer. Diluted to half the strength. • Pruning will be done 4 times annually to maintain desired shape. 7. Artificial carpet grass • Regular brushing and raking to clean the grass. 8. Eugenia Oleina • The Eugenia patch will be watered 3 to 4 times weekly. • Will be fertilized 3 times a year during spring, summer and fall with a quality granular fertilizer. Cow manure will be added as well to provide sufficient nutrients. • Pruning will be done to maintain the required shape for the hedge. Hard pruning will be done after bloom cycle during spring. 9. Weed Control • All planting areas will be kept clear of weed growth. Achieve by herbicide applications and hand-weeding or hoeing. • The methods used are ensured to cause minimum damage to planted plants. No mechanical cutters and tools are allowed closer than 200mm to the stem of any plant. A grass and weed- free area will be maintained at a minimum diameter of 1000mm at the base of each tree. Operations near stems will be done using hand tools. • Herbicide application: foliar acting translocated or contact herbicide will be used to emerging weeds. !
Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park ! ! 10.Mulch • Top mulch to minimum thickness of 50mm across planting for trees, hedges, shrubs and bamboo patch. • Spill mulch will be return to planted areas • Type of mulch: organic woodchips. 11. Re-firming, check/tidy • General: trees and shrubs will be maintained a firm position into the ground. All the stakes and ties will be checked regularly. • Inspections need to be done after strong winds and rain. • Report significant failures • Adjust stakes and ties to suit stem growth and correct uniform tension. • Inspect for looseness, breaks, decays and faults will be replaced accordingly. • Stakes will be removed once tree growths are sufficient for self-support. Fill holes with lightly compacted soil. 12. Reinstatement • Dead plants will be removed as soon as possible and replaced during the scheduled round of plant replacement. 13. Litter • Remove litter regularly, remove fly tipping within 7 days of discovery/report 14. Water testing • Water testing will be done annually ! ! ! !
Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park B. Hardscape work: 1. Gravel path • Long term maintenance for gravel path is to use edge bricks or stones. Placing it in the trench with a mallet to embed will keep it in place longer. This will also prevent the grass and weeds from creeping onto path. • Pull weeds out to prevent the weeds from taking hold; they will come out of the gravel very easily. In the fall, leaves are easy to rake off. Using a blower is the easiest way to remove smaller bits of tree debris (such as seed pods, acorns, walnut shells, etc). 2. Rocks • Pull all weeds on the landscape rocks by gripping onto the stems and pulling by the roots. Remove weeds by hand to avoid using weed killer, which can be toxic to garden plants and can dull the brightness of your rocks. Pull the weeds along the perimeter of the landscaping rocks as well. • Weed the area consistently. Check for weeds once a week to prevent new ones from growing. Pull weeds around the perimeter of the stoned area, or use a lawn mower to mow around it. 3. Slate Spot Light • Only change bulb while needed. • Lighting will be inspected as part of regular park survey and repairs will be reported to respective contact and repaired immediately. 4. Timber Deck • Apply a paste wax or naval jelly to the wood. Clean the surface entirely to remove any dirt, grease or paint particles. Clean it using a mild solution of warm water and a little detergent (can add a few tablespoons of bleach). Then rinse with fresh water. If it is already painted, you should consider waterproofing it by stripping off the paint completely with sand paper. Afterwards, apply a layer or exterior enamel prime or a good exterior latex primer. Apply one to two layers of exterior paint. 5. Concrete • Most concrete walls will crack at one time or another, due to the pressure that occurs as the concrete changes temperature or dries. Most cracks are on the surface of the concrete and do not indicate a structural problem. Cracks are usually small enough to simply fill with a special concrete epoxy or other substance created for this purpose. !
Constructed Landscape Final Project Heiwa Park • Gentle pressure washing without detergent is usually sufficient for cleaning or washing the surfaces. Remove biological growth such as fungus and mound with hypochlorite solution and then rinsing thoroughly. Avoid wire brushes that might scratch the surface of the concrete. • A power washing once a year should be sufficient to keep your concrete walls looking their best. When selecting maintenance paint for the concrete walls, apply the same type of paint as used previously to the facade. 6. Tables/ Chairs/ Seats (Wicker & Rattan) • Wicker becomes dry and thirsty, and it should be lightly misted with water approximately twice a month while in use. Allow it to dry completely since it can sag if it is used when wet. This is especially true for cane seating. • Clean by using a mild detergent and washing with a garden hose. Use a dust cloth and gently remove any dust from the furniture. It is usually protected with a lacquer finish and dirt is easily removed. If there is a wicker weave in rattan furniture can use a vacuum with a soft brush attachment to clean between the weave. ! Programming of Maintenance and Management Operations -Monitoring In order to keep the best conditions of the soft and hard landscapes on site, the long-term maintenance contractor must maintain a proper regime to assure the long-term success of the plan. To provide a basic performance specification this management plan is prepared to allow maintenance contractor to present agreement to a detailed 3 year programme of task that will include schedule dates for planting renovation and evaluation. The following analytical annual schedule of maintenance visits is valid for first decade of the establishment. This allows reasonable frequency of more common operations. Landscape contractor is required to create a schedule of operation duties and frequency using experience and horticultural knowledge. The maintenance work will include frequency of visits and detailed operations as wells as dates for •Maintenance of plants according to types of plants, watering schedule, fertilizing, and pruning. •Planting review an renovation •Monitoring and review !

    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park INTRODUCTION ! For Constructed Landscape’s final project assignment,we were required to form into a group of 6 which eventually consists of Shiko, Anna, Sue Hwa, Rozanna, Kayla and Pei Kei. As a group, we needed to select a 10 by 10 metres within campus and come up with a green space proposal to improve the landscape of the particular space, in the form of presentation boards and also a binded report which includes concept plan, master plan, planting plan, bill of quantities,construction detail as well as construction detail. To start off the project, we then visited several potential spots around campus but finally settled down on an empty balcony terrace space between Block C and Block D. The following are details of our green space proposal of the particular site. ! SITE ANALYSIS ! A. Location Plan The following is the location plan of our 10m*10m site which is located on a balcony terrace between Block C and Block D of Taylor’s Univesity Lakeside Campus. The site is adjacent to the Tourism Centre and the Legal Aid Centre and is accessible through a flight of stairs from Truffles Restaurant . The site is a16 by 10 metres slab of concrete balcony, complete with railing. 10m*10m site located on a balcony terrace between Block C and Block D.

    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park B. Site Specifications 1. Original Condition of the Site: 
 The front section of the site overlooks the commercial block as well as the lake. There are several trees plantations that stood upon the site, making the site slightly more shady while giving the site its secluded feeling as the trees obstruct the view from below. The back section of the site contains two doors as it is connected to Lecture Theater Hall 7 & 8. At the side of the back section of the site also includes several air conditioner ventilation machines. The right section of the site faces the Legal Aid Centre. There are glass panels of the office windows where the staff can look through from inside the office. The left section of the site faces the Tourism Centre. There are glass panels of the office windows where the staff can look through inside the office.

Lecture Hall 7 & 8 Tourism Centre LEGAL AID CENTRE STAIRS Human Circulation Wind Circulation Sun Circulation The flight of stairs leading to our site. The extended balcony is almost hidden from view by a covering of tall greenery, adding to its mystery. HUMAN: People can access the site by stairs and walk around the site and exit again by the stairs. ! WIND: The wind blows oppositely against the sun direction, which is from the West direction to East. ! SUN: The sun shone from the East to the West against the direction of the wind. With more sunlight directed at the middle section and more shady at the back,front and corner section.

    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park ! 3. Shading on Site: 
 ! The site is comparatively not as sunny and hot as open spaces as there is a tensioned textile coverage at the very top as shown in the above picture. However, during noon hour, approximately from 11am to 2pm, where the sun strikes at the middle, the site gets really sunny and hot as more sunlight gets through the tensioned textile, causing the middle section to be very sunny. The front section and the back section is relatively more sunny due to the trees plantation’ shading as well as the ceiling coverage at the back section. Thus more sun-tolerant plants and big shady plants should be planted in the middle section to provide shade, while more non-sun-tolerant plants should be planted near the front,back and corner as they could survive in a more shady setting. Middle section gets really sunny at noon, The trees plantations help cast shade at the front.

    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park CONCEPT: A PEaceful, Secluded pocket park ! After carrying out site analysis and observation, we came up with a concept that supported and complemented the characteristics of our site. Being high above ground level and highly enclosed by a fringe of trees, it is a protected haven of quiet seclusion. Taylor’s University Lakeside Campus could undoubtedly maximize potential and empty spaces such as this to the student’s and staff’s benefit, providing a small spot of simple pleasure to visitors. Our idea progression originated from the idea of ‘zen’, the idea of calm and serenity. Inspired further from the location of our site, which is wedged between two busy buildings, contributed to the idea of creating a small space of comfort. Easily accessible by the public but not a public display, the site was perfect for the concept we had in mind. A small pocket park with seating and walking spaces to unwind and relax was what we were aiming for. ! ! ! ! The Japanese garden depicting the balance between the graceful steps of the built environment in the natural one features the peaceful ambience that we would like to create. Lush greens paired with raw simplicity create a soothing atmosphere.
  • 6.
    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park ! Moving on from the pure Japanese sense of Zen, we considered circulation and walkways in our site. These are vital in creating a balanced built and natural landscape, fit for people to stroll carefree, forgetting about the chaos of life outside the site for a moment, to create their own world in our strip of greenery. We came up with ideas and concepts to make our site mobile, with a good circulation flow. Usage of different types and species of plants and hardscapes can also create different atmospheres and moods in the site, unified by the core principle of Zen and serenity, but interpreted in a contemporary, urban setting such as an urban pocket park. ! ! The Paley Pocket Park in New York City is one of our inspirations as it depicts simplicity yet manage to convey a sense of peace and calm, contradicting the hustle and bustle of the city life around it. Below are another few examples of our inspirations.
  • 7.
    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! The final design of the proposed site is a simplistic pocket park with an elevated section at the back section as shown in the image above. The reason why we elevate the back section was to create more layers in the space. Thus, from the upper elevated section has a different view and texture from the lower section, so that the visitors can have different experiences and perspective from the two different elevations. The lower layer is a slight elevated timber deck while the upper layer is an elevated concrete deck. Also to create more circulation in the space, we sectioned the space into several mini sections, so that it maximise the potential of interaction and circulation. With several types of shrubs and trees surrounding each section, it gives each space a private secluded feel yet not detaching them. ! Selecting a name for our site made us recall on its original meaning: safety, quiet and ease. After some research, we all agreed on the name Heiwa, a soft- sounding name that reminds one of still flowers and wet plants in the morning dew. In Japanese, the word Heiwa means peace and calm created by our site. Classic-sounding and suitable, Heiwa was our vote as the name of our small park. ! HEIWA: The Peace Park. Our tagline and vision. ! ! ! ! The right selection and ratio of wood and concrete, shrubs and bushes give the area an understated touch of quiet elegance and peace. This photo indirectly became one of our leading idea generators. “ Chinese characters depicting the meaning of peace and calm”

    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park ! ! MASTERPLAN Scale: 1:100 ! Design Concept: The 16 times 10 metre concrete site is divided subtly into three parts, namely the Jasmine Trail, the Wooden Lounge and Fern Forest, and lastly the Tea-olive Pods. Each section is elevated above the other, forming a slight hill upwards, creating a visually-pleasing organic shape. Moreover, each section is named differently due to the difference in the type of plants and also its role to play. The Jasmine Trail is a public benches, whereas the Wooden Lounge is a communal area for mingling crowds. The Fern Forest provide a shady corner seat for a couple of visitors, while the Tea-olive Pods are secluded, scented private seating areas. All of these small green spots inspire Heiwa, inspires peace. ! !

  • 11.
    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park ! Planting Concept: In the tropical, humid climate of our country, a variety of lush flowering greens are both functional and beautiful. From simplistic, native plants such as skinny birch to perfumed, flowering shrubs like jasmine and tea-olive, the palette for plants are diverse but united with one common theme: to enhance the natural element of this small pocket park. For example, the presence of ferns creates a cooling shade for visitors, whilst shrubs in a variety of height and textures provide privacy and ornamentation for the garden. Thus, Heiwa’s plants are selected for a justifiable reason from their individual aspect. When dealing with hardscape, Heiwa’s selection consists of materials that acts as a complement for its softscape and surroundings. Plain yet sturdy, concrete and gravel are used as the ‘foundation’ of the garden, forming the walking path. Besides that, teak wood in a shade of dark brown highlights the natural wood of the surroundings, while acting as a platform for visitors to sit, lounge and enjoy the view. The wood of the furniture also reflects the message Heiwa radiates as a peace park. All in all, the plant and material palette of Heiwa is a reflection of how humans should be one with all things green. ! ! ! CONSTRUCTION DETAILS Construction detail 1: !

    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park ! ! ! ! At Heiwa, a wide variety of greens consisting of grass cover, shrubs and small trees create rather complex planting construction details. Techniques such as tree staking were used to prevent wind rock and movement of the roots. Movement can tear new roots, slowing down establishment, while sheet mulching is an agricultural no-dig gardening technique that attempts to mimic natural forests' processes. When deployed properly and in combination with other permacultural principles, it can generate healthy, productive, and low maintenance ecosystems. ! Construction Detail 2: ! ! ! ! !

    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park Wood decks have the capability of providing low-cost recreational space. The use of pressure-treated and durable lumber makes this outdoor structure as permanent and long-lasting as any indoor feature. Supporting joints, posts and decking lumber must be properly grade-marked and identified as naturally durable or pressure-preserved wood by quality control agencies approved by the building model codes. A few factors to consider during construction is the design, engineering, decking, railings and finishes. Orientation for sun exposure and the location of the platform is also an important aspect. !

    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park ! Maintenance PLAN ! A. SOFTSCAPE WORK: 1. Thai Bamboo • The bamboo patch will be fertilized with nitrogen fertilizer mainly manure and compost. Most preferably cow manure. • Bamboo patch will be watered 4 times per week • To control the rhizome running and maintain long term health the root pruning will be done annually 2. Jasmine shrub • Jasmine shrub bed will be watered weekly • Fertilize every 2-4 weeks during the growing season, around February until August. A water- soluble fertilizer designed for houseplant will be used • Major pruning will be done annually after flowering season to maintain the desired shape. Minor pruning will be done accordingly to remove dead or damaged branches. Prune to a maximum height of 60cm. 3. Tea Olive • Tea Olive will be watered less frequently, around 2 to 3 times a week, than the other plants as they are more droughts tolerant. • Annual fertilizing will be done with a complete fertilizer before spring. Slow-release nitrogen fertilizer to provide food throughout the growing season. • Pruning will be done annually in early spring to keep desired shape. Pruning for any dead and damaged branches will be done at the same time as well. 4. Ferns • The fern patch will be watered 4 times a week. • Fertilizing will be done during growing season, around 2 to 3 time a year. • Humus will be added to provide rich nutrient soil. !
  • 19.
    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park • No pruning needed for ferns 5. Tropical Birch • The trees will be watered 3 to 4 times a week to keep the trees sufficient supply of moisture. • Little pruning will be done as the trees will naturally grow into a desired pyramidal shape. Pruning for dead or damaged branches and low hanging branches that interferes with walkways. 6. Ficus Benjamnia • The ficus hedge will be watered 3 to 4 times weekly to maintain proper moisture. • Fertilizing will be done once a month during active growth with a slow release 10-10-10 fertilizer. Diluted to half the strength. • Pruning will be done 4 times annually to maintain desired shape. 7. Artificial carpet grass • Regular brushing and raking to clean the grass. 8. Eugenia Oleina • The Eugenia patch will be watered 3 to 4 times weekly. • Will be fertilized 3 times a year during spring, summer and fall with a quality granular fertilizer. Cow manure will be added as well to provide sufficient nutrients. • Pruning will be done to maintain the required shape for the hedge. Hard pruning will be done after bloom cycle during spring. 9. Weed Control • All planting areas will be kept clear of weed growth. Achieve by herbicide applications and hand-weeding or hoeing. • The methods used are ensured to cause minimum damage to planted plants. No mechanical cutters and tools are allowed closer than 200mm to the stem of any plant. A grass and weed- free area will be maintained at a minimum diameter of 1000mm at the base of each tree. Operations near stems will be done using hand tools. • Herbicide application: foliar acting translocated or contact herbicide will be used to emerging weeds. !
  • 20.
    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park ! ! 10.Mulch • Top mulch to minimum thickness of 50mm across planting for trees, hedges, shrubs and bamboo patch. • Spill mulch will be return to planted areas • Type of mulch: organic woodchips. 11. Re-firming, check/tidy • General: trees and shrubs will be maintained a firm position into the ground. All the stakes and ties will be checked regularly. • Inspections need to be done after strong winds and rain. • Report significant failures • Adjust stakes and ties to suit stem growth and correct uniform tension. • Inspect for looseness, breaks, decays and faults will be replaced accordingly. • Stakes will be removed once tree growths are sufficient for self-support. Fill holes with lightly compacted soil. 12. Reinstatement • Dead plants will be removed as soon as possible and replaced during the scheduled round of plant replacement. 13. Litter • Remove litter regularly, remove fly tipping within 7 days of discovery/report 14. Water testing • Water testing will be done annually ! ! ! !
  • 21.
    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park B. Hardscape work: 1. Gravel path • Long term maintenance for gravel path is to use edge bricks or stones. Placing it in the trench with a mallet to embed will keep it in place longer. This will also prevent the grass and weeds from creeping onto path. • Pull weeds out to prevent the weeds from taking hold; they will come out of the gravel very easily. In the fall, leaves are easy to rake off. Using a blower is the easiest way to remove smaller bits of tree debris (such as seed pods, acorns, walnut shells, etc). 2. Rocks • Pull all weeds on the landscape rocks by gripping onto the stems and pulling by the roots. Remove weeds by hand to avoid using weed killer, which can be toxic to garden plants and can dull the brightness of your rocks. Pull the weeds along the perimeter of the landscaping rocks as well. • Weed the area consistently. Check for weeds once a week to prevent new ones from growing. Pull weeds around the perimeter of the stoned area, or use a lawn mower to mow around it. 3. Slate Spot Light • Only change bulb while needed. • Lighting will be inspected as part of regular park survey and repairs will be reported to respective contact and repaired immediately. 4. Timber Deck • Apply a paste wax or naval jelly to the wood. Clean the surface entirely to remove any dirt, grease or paint particles. Clean it using a mild solution of warm water and a little detergent (can add a few tablespoons of bleach). Then rinse with fresh water. If it is already painted, you should consider waterproofing it by stripping off the paint completely with sand paper. Afterwards, apply a layer or exterior enamel prime or a good exterior latex primer. Apply one to two layers of exterior paint. 5. Concrete • Most concrete walls will crack at one time or another, due to the pressure that occurs as the concrete changes temperature or dries. Most cracks are on the surface of the concrete and do not indicate a structural problem. Cracks are usually small enough to simply fill with a special concrete epoxy or other substance created for this purpose. !
  • 22.
    Constructed Landscape FinalProject Heiwa Park • Gentle pressure washing without detergent is usually sufficient for cleaning or washing the surfaces. Remove biological growth such as fungus and mound with hypochlorite solution and then rinsing thoroughly. Avoid wire brushes that might scratch the surface of the concrete. • A power washing once a year should be sufficient to keep your concrete walls looking their best. When selecting maintenance paint for the concrete walls, apply the same type of paint as used previously to the facade. 6. Tables/ Chairs/ Seats (Wicker & Rattan) • Wicker becomes dry and thirsty, and it should be lightly misted with water approximately twice a month while in use. Allow it to dry completely since it can sag if it is used when wet. This is especially true for cane seating. • Clean by using a mild detergent and washing with a garden hose. Use a dust cloth and gently remove any dust from the furniture. It is usually protected with a lacquer finish and dirt is easily removed. If there is a wicker weave in rattan furniture can use a vacuum with a soft brush attachment to clean between the weave. ! Programming of Maintenance and Management Operations -Monitoring In order to keep the best conditions of the soft and hard landscapes on site, the long-term maintenance contractor must maintain a proper regime to assure the long-term success of the plan. To provide a basic performance specification this management plan is prepared to allow maintenance contractor to present agreement to a detailed 3 year programme of task that will include schedule dates for planting renovation and evaluation. The following analytical annual schedule of maintenance visits is valid for first decade of the establishment. This allows reasonable frequency of more common operations. Landscape contractor is required to create a schedule of operation duties and frequency using experience and horticultural knowledge. The maintenance work will include frequency of visits and detailed operations as wells as dates for •Maintenance of plants according to types of plants, watering schedule, fertilizing, and pruning. •Planting review an renovation •Monitoring and review !
