Architects use architectural representation in various ways to convey transportation and infrastructure planning. Some of the methods are:
1. Sketches: Architects use quick sketches to convey a broad idea of the transportation and infrastructure planning. These sketches may include the placement of roads, walkways, and transportation nodes.
2. 3D Visualization: Architects use CAD (Computer-aided design) software to create a detailed 3D visualization of the transportation and infrastructure planning. This method provides an accurate representation of the infrastructure planning and helps in identifying any potential issues early on.
3. Diagrams: Architects use diagrams to convey the flow of transportation and infrastructure planning. These diagrams represent the connections between different nodes, including roads, bridges, and transportation hubs.
4. Renderings: Architects use renderings to create a realistic representation of the transportation and infrastructure planning. These renderings showcase the infrastructure planning from different angles and provide an understanding of how it would look in real life.
5. Maps: Architects use maps to provide spatial context to the transportation and infrastructure planning. These maps include the placement of roads, railways, and transportation hubs in relation to the existing infrastructure.
By using these representations, architects create a clear understanding of the transportation and infrastructure planning, including the proposed routes, traffic flows, and placement of transportation infrastructure. This helps in identifying potential issues and designing a plan that is functional, efficient and sustainable.
