GUIDELINES FOR HUMAN SETTLEMENT PLANNING AND DESIGNTable 5.3.6:Scale and proportion (continued)Visual recognition andsurveillance (continued).• Human scale:- Intimate humanscale: 12 m(maximum distanceto see facialexpression);- Normal humanscale: 21 to 24 m(25 m at maximumto recognise aface);- Public human scale:140 m (135 m atmaximum todistinguish ahuman);- Monumental scale:1 500 m (maximumdistance for vista).Enclosure. • Buildings should beseen as a whole froma distance that is twiceits height at a 27°angle.• Relationship betweenradius and height toensure enclosure(Moughtin 1992,pp 100-1);- Full degree ofenclosure is 1:11;- Threshold forenclosure is 1:2(beyond thisproportion spaceleaks out);- Minimumenclosure is 1:3(prominent objectsare perceivedbeyond the space);and- Loss of enclosure is>1:3 (space loses itscontainingfunction). 410Chapter 5.3Hard open spaces
GUIDELINES FOR HUMAN SETTLEMENT PLANNING AND DESIGNTable 5.3.7:Environmental factorsSolar access. • Locate highestbuildings to thesouthern side of theopen space, withlower buildings ortrees (as enclosingelements) on thenorthern side. 1• To provide adequatesolar access to abuilding, the distancebetween twobuildings should bedetermined with thefollowing: tan(latitude of the area+10 ° ) divided by theheight of theadjacent building tothe north. Forexample, at Midrand(with a latitude of22 ° ) the following isapplicable:- If the adjacentbuilding is 2,85 mhigh (one storey),the distancebetween the twobuildings shouldbe 4,6 m.- If the adjacentbuilding is 5,7 mhigh (two storeys),the distancebetween the twobuildings shouldbe 9,1 m.- If the adjacentbuilding is 8,85 mhigh (threestoreys), thedistance betweenthe two buildingsshould be 14,2 m. 2Hard open spaces Chapter 5.311
