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

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 DENSITY

Tends 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/INGRESS

STRENGTHS:

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
