SITE ANALYSIS SITE B PENANG MALAYSIA - DESIGN STUDIO 2 - SITE ANALYSIS PANTAI KERACHUT
LOCATION PLAN Pantai Kerachut This is the location plan of Pantai Kerachut in Penang National Park, Malaysia. This area is found at the northwestern tip of Penang island. It is popular for its harmonious serenity of nature and man. A very special feature of this site is the ‘’Meromictic Lake’’    which is a seasonal lake. The lake is surrounded by a variety of rich vegetation. The  lake’s  mouth  is  connected  to  the  Malacca Strait. BEACH FOREST MEROMICTIC LAKE MALACCA STRAIT LAND GUARD POST SITE PLAN BEACH
SITE PLAN This area denotes our intended site area of 100m x 200m, ensuring the bridge entrance is included as well as the mouth of the lake, where a special phenomenon takes place. That of allowing sea water into the lake but preventing it from backwashing into the sea, creating two layers of water ; fresh water and sea water in the lake, hence the name, Meromictic Lake. Our site also allows generous amount of flat gentle land. 100m BEACH FOREST BRIDGE MALACCA STRAIT MEROMICTIC LAKE LAND MEROMICTIC LAKE SITE PLAN 200m BEACH
CONTOURS The map here shows the contours of the area. The lowest contour height is -2m. And the highest is 34m. The 0m contour line represents the sea level. It is clear that this area is made of both steep terrain as well as some areas of gentle flat land. BRIDGE MALACCA STRAIT BEACH FOREST MEROMICTIC LAKE LAND SITE PLAN MEROMICTIC LAKE BEACH
SECTIONS Due to the complex terrain surrounding our site, we realised it would be ideal for us to have general sections of the area instead of simply limiting it to within our site, to indicate the gradient of the slopes as well as their heights above sea level.

Land Breeze and Sea Breeze When the wind pressure flows through the enclosed area of the trees and vegetations, being smaller in diameter, the restriction causes a higher pressure at the narrow end. This difference in pressure causes the wind flow to accelerate towards the low pressure narrow section, creating a higher constant speed. CLIMATE WIND

    LOCATION PLAN PantaiKerachut This is the location plan of Pantai Kerachut in Penang National Park, Malaysia. This area is found at the northwestern tip of Penang island. It is popular for its harmonious serenity of nature and man. A very special feature of this site is the ‘’Meromictic Lake’’    which is a seasonal lake. The lake is surrounded by a variety of rich vegetation. The  lake’s  mouth  is  connected  to  the  Malacca Strait. BEACH FOREST MEROMICTIC LAKE MALACCA STRAIT LAND GUARD POST SITE PLAN BEACH

    SITE PLAN This areadenotes our intended site area of 100m x 200m, ensuring the bridge entrance is included as well as the mouth of the lake, where a special phenomenon takes place. That of allowing sea water into the lake but preventing it from backwashing into the sea, creating two layers of water ; fresh water and sea water in the lake, hence the name, Meromictic Lake. Our site also allows generous amount of flat gentle land. 100m BEACH FOREST BRIDGE MALACCA STRAIT MEROMICTIC LAKE LAND MEROMICTIC LAKE SITE PLAN 200m BEACH
