CE 101
Project No. 2 and Development
Students will choose a piece of property in Harrison, New Jersey in order to design a land development project.
The project will require groups to create a site plan to address the needs of the surrounding areas. Groups will
propose the layout of the site including the building size, location, parking layout, site layout, etc. Each team must
create AutoCAD drawings and prepare a detailed presentation about the project.
The intent of the project is to develop a concept plan for an existing property in Harrison, NJ using the Master Plan
and the Land Use Ordinance. The project must be justified, and the team must propose a project that serves the
best purpose for that site. For example, a team may determine that Harrison is lacking in physical fitness facilities
based on the current master plan and resident needs. The group will then use the land use ordinance to establish
the concept plan design based on setbacks, parking requirements, and other bulk requirements.
Requirements:
1. CAD Drawings
UST BE SUBMITTED ON TITLEBLOCKS
Each team will utilize an aerial image as the base map for this project. Groups will need to import the
image and scale it to be used for conceptual land development design. Groups must use both aerial
imagery and zoning maps to create a base map of the assigned property. Existing CAD drawings must
depict the following items at a minimum:
•
•
•
•
Property boundary lines
Curb lines
Sidewalk areas
Asphalt areas
Buildings
Any other physical feature
Striping
Physical features a minimum of 50&rom all property lines
After groups establish the base map for the site, the concept plan will be developed. The project entails
analyzing the Town and re-designing the existing site to satisfy a town need/want. Groups are permitted
to choose any type of ¥alistic$evelopment except for single/multi-family residences. Any proposed
design MUST include a parking lot area. Proposed CAD drawings must depict the following items at a
minimum:
•
•
•
•
Buildings
Parking areas
Striping
Traffic arrows
Landscaped Areas
Sidewalks
Any other physical feature necessary
Dimension lines and text
CAD drawings must be printed in Monochrome with existing features grayed down (COLOR 8). Property
boundary lines will remain dark and bold, with all other existing features in gray. Projects must use a
variety of line types and weights to depict different objects.
Teams will also prepare CAD drawings depicting existing and proposed drainage maps. These maps will
show the various land covers and compare areas for both existing and proposed developments. The CAD
drawings will show all of the areas on site for grass, asphalt, concrete, building, etc.

Each group will create a PowerPoint presentation or equivalent to discuss their projects. Each
presentation must be rehearsed and shall be 9-10 minutes. Groups must practice their presentations and
know how to transition from team members.
Teams will present via Webex during our scheduled class time. Each team member must be present
during the time of presentation to receive credit.
Each group member must present and participate equally. The presentation is an overview of the project
and should include maps/images/CAD drawings to communicate the intent of the project. Paragraphs of
text should not be used on the slides.
