  3. Introduction ……….

  4. Problem Definition • Revised Client Statement: “Design an inclusive playground of an area of 30m*30m and that is suitable for both normal and disabled children whose age ranges between 5 and 12 years. The playground design should be safe to children and to the environment. It should safely accommodate 30 students at any one time. The design should be economically feasible as this is a charity. The playground should be accessible as it should include paths for children with different disabilities including blind and wheel chaired children. The design of the playground’s equipment must be reliable and child friendly. This includes the durability, attraction and comfort of the equipments design. Moreover the design should be developmental, that is, the children can develop their social and physical skills.” ….

  5. Problem Definition • Design objectives and constraints: • Safe

  6. Desirable perceptual goal

  7. Generation of alternative

  18. Open Slide Chute

  19. Open Slide Chute (4 – 2* width of slide chute) radius of slide chute

  20. Surfacing under the playground 2-3 inches 3-6 inches 3-4 inches

  21. Surfacing under slides and swings Layer 5: Impact mats under swings

  22. Slide Assembly

  23. Material Cost

  24. Cost Estimation • Total Cost of playground equipment : 108,000 Dhs • Cost of playground equipment (x) + Cost of installation (.30x) + Cost of surfacing (.12x) + Cost of design fees, grading, landscaping, and other expenses (.10x) = Total project cost or budget • Initial Cost= 180,000 Dhs • Final Cost = 90,000 Dhs

  25. Conclusion • Important stages we went through • Final Design Stage: Slide 3 • A full economic analysis will be provided • Playground Construction and Equipment Installation Sister Company : Aardvark Recreation Inc , Mankhool,BurDubai, Dubai (UAE)
