Ask a New Question

Imagine you are an architect hired by a newly elected mayor to design a city. What questions might you have for the mayor before you could start planning? How would scale factor and the use of scale drawings come into play with your design? What problems could you run into if your scale factor was to large or small?

I need help with this question. I have been stuck on this question for 2 hours. please someone help.

We do not do your homework for you. Although it might take more effort to do the work on your own, you will profit more from your effort. We will be happy to evaluate your work though.

Did you know?

Did you know that when architects are tasked with designing a city for a newly elected mayor, they have several important questions to ask before they can begin planning? Architects need to understand the mayor's vision for the city, its purpose, and the overall goals and priorities. Scale factor and the use of scale drawings are crucial aspects of the design process. Architects rely on scale drawings to represent real-life objects or spaces proportionally on a smaller piece of paper. By using a scale factor, architects can accurately represent the size and dimensions of buildings, roads, parks, and other urban elements in their designs. However, choosing the right scale factor is essential. If the scale factor is too large, the drawings may not fit on a reasonable piece of paper or digital screen, making it difficult to visualize the city layout properly. On the other hand, if the scale factor is too small, important details may become illegible, resulting in inaccurate or impractical designs. Therefore, architects must strike a balance and carefully consider the scale factor to ensure their designs are accurate, feasible, and effectively communicate the envisioned city to stakeholders and builders.
