2. INTRODUCTION
Urban planning is process concerned with
the control of the use of land and design
of the urban environment, including
transportation networks, to guide and
ensure the orderly development of
settlements and communities.
A sustainable society meets the needs of
the present without sacrificing the ability
of future generations to meet their own
needs.
3. Assigned to design and plan the town of
Kajang, Selangor. Kajang, is a town in the
eastern part of Selangor, Malaysia. It is the
district capital of Hulu Langat. The current
locational gravity of growth in Kajang
would be Sungai Chua. Kajang is
governed by the Majlis Perbandaran
Kajang
13. E. Parking
Limit car parking ≤ standard
Provides parking for disabled persons
Secure cycle parking
lorry and motor cycle parking
14. Parking Design
i. Interlocking parking design
maximize the size of openings at the surface to
maximize infiltration
trees are incorporated in tree grates, rotated 45
degrees which able to gather rainwater at the
grates.
16. ii. Automated parking design
about 75 percent of the footprint than a
conventional parking structure
significant amount of emissions are eliminated
automated parking structures is structural steel
which has a high recycled materials content.
17. iii. Green roof parking system
reduced storm water
control measures
decreased maintenance/
restoration costs and the
opportunity for additional
uses
18. F. Urban Design Principles
create green, sustainable places
Compact, walkable places are the most
sustainable form of living.
19. Designing away the need for cars has the triple
effect
-lowering our energy use
-reducing global warming emissions
-raising our quality of life in cities by increasing mobility
and convenience.
22. iii. Mixed building uses and car parking
Access to facilities is more convenient.
Travel-to-work congestion is minimised as this allows
potentially more journeys by bike or on foot.
There is greater opportunity for social interaction
Streets are generally more active at different times
of the day, bringing with it a greater feeling of
safety
23. iv. Public and private space
Legibility – A place that has a clear image and is easy
to understand. The main entrances to public and
other major buildings should be emphasised through
carefully designed streets, lighting, signage and
paving.
24. G. Context
The design, location and function of buildings can
help reinforce the identity of routes and spaces
within the public
Well-designed public spaces can help people find
their way around the city and provide informal
recreational space
28. H. Safety and Security
shall provide sufficient
police stations, police posts,
police patrols
Place the closed-circuit
television (CCTV)
29. Design or redesign principles
i. Lighting
To ensure the appropriate placement of
lighting to avoid shadows and glare which
might put pedestrians at risk
ii. Natural surveillance and sightlines;
To provide unimpeded sightlines
To encourage natural surveillance from
surrounding buildings and land uses.
30. iii. Signage;
To provide adequate, easily legible signage to assist
pedestrians, particularly older people and people
with disabilities, to find their way safely.
31. iv. Building design;
To reduce the risk of public buildings contributing to
crime or safety problems.
For example, provide windows overlooking public
areas, avoid locating toilets, service areas and
ramps in isolated areas and avoid designing
features that create entrapment spaces.
32. vi. Management and maintenance.
Promptly repair damage to public spaces to ensure
safety for all users and to reduce the risk of crime.
Use imaginative solutions to overcome vandalism
problems, such as wallmurals painted by local street
artists and formalising informal pathways subject to
vandalism.
50. Conclusion Authorities need to come up with sustainable plans
to make use of the resources available in the highly
populated areas
Help to promote development in an area as well as
solve some of the problems that face urban areas
such as high population and sanitation problems.
51. Enable correction of mistakes that had earlier being
made in the design of urban areas
Environmental protection
Sustainable infrastructure
Health of a population
Enough land to carry out agricultural activities
