This document provides instructions for a site analysis assignment. Students are asked to analyze the site of their home and diagram key elements on a 24" x 36" sheet of tracing paper. Elements to be diagrammed include solar orientation, views, vegetation, paved areas, slope of land, utility locations, wind direction, drainage, sounds, neighbor locations and property boundaries. Students should show this information graphically using various drawing tools and include a north arrow and sun path. The goal is to clearly convey site conditions to assist with planning a potential room addition. The assignment is due at the beginning of class on August 31.
