The opportunities and constraints inherent to a site and the response to a program/design brief are analysed and documented in an overall site planning document that should accompany a development application. Good site planning therefore starts with a comprehensive analysis of the site, within the immediate and regional context.

MINIMISING THE RISK OF CORROSION: The quality and depth of concrete in the cover zone are all important in minimizing the risk of corrosion as shown in fig. Like most of the aspects of concrete durability, deterioration due to corrosion of the reinforcement can take place years (5 to 20) to manifest itselt.
