rea of the site [Draw outline of site in Figure 1]

.

The site area is defined by the total area within the site title boundaries.

Denoted in m2

.

If you do not have access to the area of the site, you can use google maps. Locate the site (you will need the address). Hover your mouse curser to the corner of the site, right click and measure distance. When all points connect google with compute the total area (m2).

Slope of the site

.

Describe the shape and relief of the land. On the site plan you will see various degrees of the gradient of slope, near the boundary, this will indicate the change in elevation of the site. However, if you can't find any simple information on the documents detailing the site slope,

it is

recommend doing a site visit and or having a look on google earth

and noting the following

: Does the site have a slope going downwards or a slope going upwards or a slope going sidewards or rolling and finally is there no slope, and it is just flat. For example, you could write: "The site appears to be flat. If it has a slope, it slightly going downwards south-east towards x Road.

to your Part A information under scope.

Total floor area

.

Number of square metres that is located completely above grade. Denoted in m2.

Number of levels in building

.

The number of above ground levels in the building.

Area of building ‘footprint’ on site. [Locate outline of footprint of the new building in Figure 1]

.

The building footprint is the area measured from the outer surface of the exterior of the building to give a square area. The external components of the building which are not part of the structure are either included/excluded, really depends.
