Design Plans Flashcards
What are the three common types of design plans?
1) Site Plan
2) Concept Plan
3) Installation Plan
What is a site plan?
A site plan is the foundation for the other two plans.
It includes property lines, existing structures and hardscapes, and other important elements of the terrain.
What is a landscape concept plan?
A landscape concept plan includes proposed structures, shapes of planting beds, and types of softscapes. It includes both birds’ eye views and perspective views.
A landscape concept plan is basically a final rough draft, and is used to sell the idea to a client.
What is an installation plan?
An installation plan is a set of drawings that allow contractors to install the elements correctly. The plan may be split into sub-plans that focus on different elements (ex. lighting plan, grading plan, construction plan, irrigation plan, etc). It is highly detailed.
