...Integrated design is a model design method which is development of a holistic design. Holistically, people divide a project in many small sections and every group only design apart of them. There is hardly discussion in each group. Nowadays, the project team members work together to deal with the whole project. There are fifth designs phases arrange by Royal Institute of British Architects as follows: preparation, Design, pre-construction, construction and use. This essay is focus on using the integrated design method to build a 5-story office and utility. The integrated design can divide in three steps as drainage design, concrete design and foundation design. 2. Drainage Design: 1. Introduction Drainage design provided a system on managing storm water for specific area. The design must be effectively both on cost and conveyance to control the water flow, and protect water quality. This report focuses on the design procedure of drainage network based on information of catchment area, characteristics, slope, land use and flow rate and any other factors. The plan for future development would also be considered into the design. By examines the geology and hydrogeology of the study area, two drainage network was designed. This is a simple drainage design without considering the influence of soil type, different drainage system throughout this area, and water quality.

...Name Instructor Class Date Network Design Paper In this network design work, the aspect of sub-netting would be a significant consideration during g the design process in order to ensure that the entire IP network is subdivided in a logically visible manner. In such a design with 156 computers, it would be advisable to address all of these computers with some common and identical most significant bit group within the assigned IP address. This would effectively assist in the division of two fields that could include the routing or network prefix, as well as the rest of the field host identifier. The design has two server rooms. The routing prefix could be located within the server room in the first floor, while the rest of the host identifier could be fixed within the second floor server room. The design would thereby require some routers to enhance effective traffic between the various sub-networks that could be allocated for individual floors (McCabe, 102-104). Since the population is not considred to be extremely large, it is recommended that the institution should consider designing an IPv4 layout. This has a limited number of IP addresses as compared to the IPv6, but would still be sufficient even for future expansion of say the offices and the computer labs in the future. The assigned IP address to each of the devices within the networks would be used as a unique for of identifier to all of these devices. This will make the devices to become controllable and be...

...The owners of Design IT asked for a proposal for a design plan for a newly purchased office space. The purpose is to propose a network design that interconnects the new office together which consist of 4 cubicle, 1 office, 1 server room, 1 receptionist desk, and 1 conference room. All aspects of the project should consider speed and the best performance available. I propose that a client-server network would serve Design IT best, with the company having multiple servers, and the need for multiple client needing access the files on the servers. The network should suit the company’s expansion. And with the purchase of extra licenses in the future it will be uncomplicated to expand the size of the network in the future. By utilizing the client-server concept the files are not only easy to locate but also easier to backup and restore. The client server network will file management easier to manage. The client-server architecture would best be utilized with a star topology. The star topology is a very popular network design for a couple of reason. The star topology is easy to put into action. Maintenance and troubleshooting is simple because the devices are individually connected to a central device. So if a cable is broken or stops working on the device connected is impacted. Taking into account that speed and performance are key issue to consider I proposed network design will be based on a 1000BASTE-T. This structure will allow for speeds up to 1000 gigabits per second...
