S W O T

Vast and spacious

Has both open spaces and dense mangrove

Has limitless amount of water (cleanliness in

question)

S W O T

Extremely disgusting smell

Small diversity of flora and fauna

Barren

S W O T

Clear view of the Straits of Malacca

Mangrove forms a natural barricade, good for development

Calm shores, aids in development

S W O T

High and low tide might affect buildings

High chance of affecting the habitat if heavy

development is undertaken

SUN PATH

ADJUSTING TO SUN

LIGHT INTENSITY

These areas have a high concentration of UV rays,

which, though beneficial to the human body in short amounts, can cause skin

cancer in prolonged exposures.

SHADED AREAS

These shaded areas provide a refuge from the sunlight,

and thus are shown to have a noticeably lower temperature than its surroundings; around

2-3 degrees Celsius difference.

ANNUAL WIND DISTRIBUTION

MONSOON WINDS

SEA BREEZE

LAND BREEZE

TIDES (4:15PM)The tides wax and wane due to the pull of the moon’s gravity. The speed of both incoming and outgoing tides are the

same: 0.023m/s.

This can be dangerous for those trapped by the rising

tide. Currents brought in by the tide have been known to pull unsuspecting victims into the

sea.

Drownings have occurred in this area.

TIDES (4:47PM)The tides wax and wane due to the pull of the moon’s gravity. The speed of both incoming and outgoing tides are the

same: 0.023m/s.

This can be dangerous for those trapped by the rising

tide. Currents brought in by the tide have been known to pull unsuspecting victims into the

sea.

Drownings have occurred in this area.

TIDES (5:27PM)

TIDES (6:40PM)

TIDES (8:15PM)

Tides come and go every 6 hours, starting at 12AM

midnight.

At the start of each 6 hour cycle, the tide rises at a

rate of 0.023m/s, engulfing the cape. It then maintains its present depth until the

end of its 6-hour cycle, when it then recedes at the

same rate: 0.02m/s

RAINFALL

HUMIDITY

At 100% humidity, the air has reached its saturation point and could no longer hold any more moisture.

The air will feel heavier, and people will sweat more.

Generally it is an unpleasant experience.

TEMPERATURE

TEMPERATURE VARIANCE BY HEIGHT

As the altitude increases, the temperature decreases

noticeably due to lack of radiation being reflected

from the ground.

Generally it is more comfortable to build high.

SOIL CONDITION

SOIL CONDITIONThis graph demonstrates the characteristics of the soil, with different diameters of particulate

demonstrating different behaviours.

Sedimentation is the tendency for particles in suspension to settle out of the fluid in which they are entrained, and come to rest against a

barrier.

Transportation is the displacement of particles in a medium to another location

which is then deposited.

Erosion of soil occurs due to the displacement of particles from its parent medium.

S W O T

Sea breeze makes it cooling during the day.

Safe site due to weak tides and waves.

S W O T

High exposure of UV rays due to sunlight.

Insulation difficulties due to temperature

differences.

Soft and weak soil condition.

S W O T

Potential for solar energy exploitation.

Potential for beach activities.

S W O T

Haze due to wind blowing from Indonesia during the South-west

Monsoon.

Contamination and pollution from littering

and poor drainage.

Building corrosion due to high salt content in

air.

Erosion and major settlement issues due to

soil condition.

C I R C U L A T I O NPREPARED BY: SCHANI BHARAT & CO.

M A C R O

HAZARDS SOLUTION:

Hire security guard and lifeguard services

Maintain cleanliness of beach

Impose fines on litterbugs.

Erect a notice board.

AVERAGE DAILY HUMAN DENSITYTends to stay near the

beach.

Most of the visitors gather under the

shaded trees.

More crowded to the North-east, as that side

has more complete facilities.

South-west is commonly occupied by snail

hunters.

PARKING SITUATION STRENGTHS:

Avoids congestion on main roads and

driveways.

WEAKNESSES:

Insufficient parking bays during public holidays.

THREATS:

The size of the parking bays are too small.

OPPORTUNITY:

Increase size and quantity of bays.

HUMAN CIRCULATION TO BEACH(FROM RESORT)

STRENGTHS:

Various access points.

WEAKNESSES:

Poor security.

THREATS:

Not wide enough doors/entrance to way

to beach.

OPPORTUNITY:

Indication of direction to beach and which beach

(sign boards)

SNAILHUNTER CIRCULATION SPEED

They are move active on the mangrove area.

Access through open car park.

Slowest speed.

GROUP CIRCULATION SPEEDTeam building activities on the South-west side.

Water sports on North-east side.

INVIDUAL CIRCULATION SPEEDWalk along the beach.

Wouldn’t access further away form the shore.

Fastest circulation speed.

BOAT EGRESS/INGRESSSTRENGTHS:

Boats are congested during docking and

egress.

THREATS:

Ramp is not well maintained, boat

docking stations poorly indicated.

OPPORTUNITY:

Maintain external beach interfaces, specific to the public or private

sector.

PROPOSED CIRCULATION PATH IMPROVEMENT

STRENGTHS:

Amazing ambiance, views and experience

Interaction with wildlife

WEAKNESSES:

Path is unsafe due to forest and rubbish

Divergent pathways

No clear indications

OPPORTUNITY:

Create a “natural” deck leading to main zone

A proper pathway leading to entrance from hotel.

Creates sense of adventure.

BIRD MIGRATION PATTERN

Birds migrate once a year towards the north, from early March to early April.

S W O T

Both swamp and beach available for

comparisons and ecological studies

Wide view area

A large area of shallow waters and sand

available during low tide

Different stages of mangrove growth can

be observed and appreciated.

S W O T

Swamp area hardly accessible due to

muddy waters

Rubbish can be found on the beach

Broken drainage structures which leads

to the beach

The difference between the water level and

during high tide and low tide is very large

S W O T

Water activities

Animal spotting (mudskippers, fish, birds)

Trees on the side can be subjected to further landscaping and beautifying

the site

S W O T

Waves may erode structures over time

Small but deep holes in muddy soil near swamp

area

Rubbish accumulated on beach may bring

unwanted diseases
