Design Standards and Conditions (SD2)

Uitgebreide vaknaam	Design Standards and Conditions (SD2)
Leerdoelen	1) describe, and apply the layered approach to spatial planning to understand the built environment with existing examples. 2) identify, apply, calculate and analyse the occupation layer (building typologies, densities, functions and forms), the network layer (type of traffic, infrastructure, green-blue structures, and energy systems), and the underground layer (landscape and soil types, cables and utilities, and ecological base). 3) recognise, illustrate and calculate built up area densities, building typologies, environmental impacts (sun, wind and water), restrictive contours, and spatial network capacities. 4) find, understand and utilise complex technical information from relevant fields of study (architecture, civil engineering, transport planning, urban design and project management) to aid in spatial planning implementation. 5) describe the planning process (from initiation, to design, to implementaiotn and management) including the different roles and stakeholders in it and apply it within an advisory (feasibility) report. 6) analyse and evaluate spatial plans for feasibility, principles of sustainable development and healthy cities, and formulate an appropriate advise for it. 7) demonstrate and practice a professional attitude and behaviour (individual and as a group in relation to working with other professionals from different fields).
Omschrijving	Spatial planning and design requires more than just visions and concepts. In order to translate those dreams to reality as future spatial planners, students will learn in eight weeks, the technical aspects of the spatial planning process (building regulations, design guidelines, planning law and policies, and project management processes) and how they are applied in the Dutch and international planning practice. The course follows the Dutch approach to layered spatial planning (‘De lagenbenadering’) accompanied by an annual design theme informed by current planning practice (e.g., sustainable development, or healthy cities). Our guest lecturers, planning professionals and experts from relevant public and private organisations, will share their experiences and insights on how these technical aspects of planning play a role in their work. The excursions will provide students a chance to ‘get their feet wet or their hands dirty’ by visiting current planning projects. These lectures correspond to the three layers (occupation, network and underground) and the relationship between them. These are then complemented by a series of practical sessions, where students (in a group of 5) will apply their knowledge and practice the necessary skills by completing a section of a feasibility report for a design master plan/project per week. Content covered includes; - typologies of buildings and areas; - technical, financial and legal feasibility; - design guidelines and regulations; and - construction processes for dry/wet infrastructure, utilities and facilities.
