STAGE 2.1: FINAL MASTERPLAN – Develop golf course layout with an emphasis on spatial and visual requirements. This stage places more emphasis on an integrated development criteria and landscape enhancements with the objective of producing a golf course solution for approval.
DTL recommends independent irrigation consultant, agronomy consultant and landscape architect as a requirement for completing the detailed design. DTL will require engineering consultant for specific structural design installations.
STAGE 2.2: PLANNING – information or technical details brought forward from detail or schematic design.
STAGE 2.3: DETAIL OR SCHEMATIC DESIGN – all preliminary information is advanced to greater design detail.
- Setting out plan for key golf course features and co-ordinates.
- General contouring, earthworks proposals and volumetric calculations.
- Lake designs, bridge designs, and lake overflows (in conjunction with engineering consultant).
- General grassing plan and irrigation areas.
- Integrate golf design with hard landscaping proposals, halfway house, shelters, aesthetic walling, streams, cascades, cart path and maintenance track.
- Integrate golf design with engineering consultant – features such as bridges, retaining walls, storm culverts or pipes.
- Final green details and contouring.
- Final tee and bunker formations.
