Design module review one done!
First one of the year and plenty more to go.
I find the reviews very hyelpful in giving me ideas and inspiration on where to take the projet next. It also helps having my peers comment on the work to help me recognise points i may have overlooked.
All in all it went well, a lot of researh went into the context of the site and ground conditions. The review lead me to focus on the concrete foundation type due to the ground satuaration. This is going to be an important design factor because of the site location being so close to seawater - salt attack on the concrete will have to be considered.
My dissertation is a study on sulphate attack on concrtete foundations so it will relate directly to my design module.
