A METHOD OF SUBDIVIDING A PLOT OF LAND FOR HOUSING AND A HOUSING SUBDIVISION SO FORMED

Abstract Abstract A method for sub-division of a plot of land comprises the steps of forming, on a polygonal basic tile shape, a layout of a basic precinct unit (1) comprising an array of occupiable spaces (2) of predetermined shape, at least one access way (5) communicating with each occupiable space (2) and tessellating the polygonal basic tile shapes over an area to be sub-divided whereby respective said at least one access way (5) of each basic precinct unit (1) connects with an access way (5) of an adjacent basic precinct unit (1) to form a network of connecting access ways, said basic precinct unit (1), together with an adjacent basic precinct unit (1) forming an inter-tile unit (12) of predetermined shape from two or more adjacent occupiable spaces, said inter-tile unit (12) linking adjacent basic precinct units (1). The tessellation is formed computationally and the computation may include dimensional, boundary and topographical contour data of a plot of land to be subdivided.

A method for sub-division of a plot of land comprises the steps of forming, on a polygonal basic tile shape, a layout of a basic precinct unit (1) comprising an array of occupiable spaces (2) of predetermined shape, at least one access way (5) communicating with each occupiable space (2) and tessellating the polygonal basic tile shapes over an area to be sub-divided whereby respective said at least one access way (5) of each basic precinct unit (1) connects with an access way (5) of an adjacent basic precinct unit (1) to form a network of connecting access ways, said basic precinct unit (1), together with an adjacent basic precinct unit (1) forming an inter-tile unit (12) of predetermined shape from two or more adjacent occupiable spaces, said inter-tile unit (12) linking adjacent basic precinct units (1). The tessellation is formed computationally and the computation may include dimensional, boundary and topographical contour data of a plot of land to be subdivided.


I Claim:
1. A method for sub-division of a plot of land, said method comprising the steps of :-
forming on a polygonal basic tile shape a layout of a basic precinct unit comprising
an array of occupiable spaces of predetermined shape, at least one access way
communicating with each occupiable space, said occupiable spaces each having
respective right of occupancy, and forming an optimized sub-division of said plot
of land by tessellating said polygonal basic tile shapes over an area to be sub
divided whereby respective said at least one access way of each basic precinct unit
connects with an access way of an adjacent basic precinct unit to form a network of
connecting access ways, each said basic precinct unit, together with an adjacent
basic precinct unit forming an inter-tile unit of predetermined shape from two or
more adjacent occupiable spaces, said inter-tile unit linking adjacent basic precinct
units to form a commercial or residential sub-division.
2. A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said polygonal basic tile shape comprises
a plurality of polygonal sub-tiles of predetermined shape.
3. A method as claimed in claim 2, wherein each said polygonal sub-tile comprises a
layout including at least portion of an occupiable space and at least portion of an
access way.
4. A method as claimed in claim 3, wherein each said polygonal sub-tile further
comprises at least portion of a common space.
5. A method as claimed in claim 2, wherein said sub-tiles comprises part or all of one
or more occupiable spaces.
6. A method as claimed in claim 2, wherein each said sub-tile shape is identical.
7. A method as claimed in claim 2, wherein said sub-tiles each comprise an array of
discrete occupiable spaces and at least one access way.
8. A method as claimed in claim 7, wherein said sub-tiles further comprise at least
one common space region.
9. A method as claimed in claim 7, wherein said sub-tiles have the same or differing
shapes.
10. A method as claimed in claim 2, wherein said basic tile shapes are tessellated to
form a super-tile shape containing provision for public amenities.
11. A method as claimed in claim 10, wherein said super-tile is tessellated with basic
tile shapes of the same or differing shapes.

12. A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein adjacent said occupiable spaces embody
adjacent building structures having at least one common wall structure.
13. A method as claimed in claim 12, wherein said building structures are selected
from duplex, triplex, quadriplex, pentaplex, sextuplex or octaplex structures or any
combination thereof.
14. A method as claimed in claim 13, wherein said occupiable spaces comprise
housing lots.
15. A method as claimed in claim 14, wherein said basic precinct unit comprises a
basic neighbourhood unit.
16. A method as claimed in claim 13, wherein said occupiable spaces comprise
building floor plan layouts.
17. A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said access way comprises a roadway.
18. A method as claimed in claim 17, wherein said access way comprises pedestrian
access ways.
19. A method as claimed in claim 4, wherein said common space includes roadways
and/or pedestrian access ways.
20. A method as claimed in claim 4, wherein said common space includes communal
spaces.
21. A method as claimed in any one of claims 1 to 20, whereby subdivisions so formed
include a building structure selected from a triplex, pentaplex, sextuplex or
octaplex configuration wherein dwelling units are separated from adjacent dwelling
units by at least one common wall.
22. A land sub-division whenever effected according to claim 1.
23. A method for sub-division of a plot of land, said method characterized by the steps
of: inputting into a processing device dimensional, boundary and topographical
contour data of a plot of land to be sub-divided, selecting from a data storage
means associated with said processing device at least one polygonal basic tile
shape, forming on said polygonal basic tile shape a layout of a basic precinct unit
comprising an array of occupiable spaces selected from a stored range of
predetermined shapes and at least one access way communicating with each
occupiable space, computing a tessellation of said polygonal basic tile shapes over
a computed surface of said plot of land within a predetermined dimensional ratio
whereby respective said at least one access way of each basic precinct unit connects

with an access way of an adjacent basic precinct unit to form a network of connecting access ways over said computed surface of said plot of land to be subdivided, each said basic precinct unit, together with an adjacent basic precinct unit, forming an inter-tile unit of predetermined shape from two or more adjacent occupiable spaces, said inter-tile unit linking adjacent basic precinct units, and outputting to a display device a computed sub-divisional plan for said plot of land.
24. A method as claimed in claim 23, wherein said basic polygonal tile shape is formed
from two or more polygonal sub-tile shapes of predetermined configuration.
25. A method as claimed in claim 24, wherein a plurality of basic polygonal tile shapes
may be combined to form a polygonal super-tile shape of predetermined
configuration.
26. A method as claimed in claim 25, wherein polygonal inter-tile shapes, polygonal
sub-tile shapes and/or polygonal super-tile shapes are tessellated alone or in any
combination thereof to form a computed sub-divisional plan for said plot of land.
27. A method as claimed in claim 26, wherein tessellated sub-tile, basic tile, super-tile
and inter-tile units or any combination thereof are applied to a computed sub-
divisional plan of a plot of land in a best fit adaptation to accommodate
predetermined land boundary and/or land contour variations.
28. A method as claimed in claim 27, wherein computed artefacts absent from said
basic precinct units are incorporated into said computer subdivisional plan of said
plot of land without substantial distortion to said network of connecting access
ways.
