Abstract

Infrastructure systems are critical to support sustainable and equitable urbanisation, and infrastructure is becoming more prominent within urban spatial strategies. However, the fragmented governance and delivery of spatial plans and infrastructure projects create a challenging environment to embed planning goals across the planning, delivery and operation of infrastructure systems. There is significant uncertainty around future needs and the complex ways that infrastructures influence socio-spatial relations and political-economic processes. Additionally, fragmented knowledge of infrastructure across different disciplines undermines the development of robust planning strategies. Comparative analysis of strategic spatial plans from Auckland, Melbourne and Vancouver examines how infrastructures are instrumentalised to support planning goals. Across the three cases, the analysis identified four common infrastructural modalities: rescaling socio-spatial relations through targeted intensification, intra-urban mobility upgrades and containment boundaries; re-localising socio-spatial relations to the suburban scale with â€˜complete communitiesâ€™; protection of â€˜gatewayâ€™ precincts; and local planning provisions to support housing affordability. By examining infrastructure through a theoretical framework for suburban infrastructures, this analysis revealed how infrastructures exert agency as artefacts shaping socio-spatial relations and through the internalisation of political-economic processes. Each modality mobilised infrastructure to support goals of global competitiveness, economic growth and â€˜liveabilityâ€™. Findings suggest that spatial strategies should take a user-focused approach to infrastructure to meet the needs of diverse urban populations, and engage directly with the modes of infrastructure project delivery to embed planning goals across design, delivery and operations stages. Stronger institutional mandates to control land-use and provide affordable housing would improve outcomes in these city-regions.

Step 1: Define what the problem is, the aspects that need to be considered and acknowledged.
Step 2: Collect information relating to problem at hand, which can include previous examples from other countries' attempts at the problem.
Step 3: Apply solution in a small scale test to determine if it's a viable outcome, including population surveys and trial runs.
Step 4: When small scale tests prove viable, implementation of full scale solution is undertaken.

Used explore method - read the article and discovered that is infact very safe to swim at St. Kilda beach.

'The focus on health and wellbeing which emerged in the Deco period was very much in evidence at St Kilda Beach.'

- come up with new and enhanced materials that would accommodate different weather conditions throughout the year.
examples include: reflector glass that can absorb heat and alternatively exchange it into cooler air which would be a cheaper solution rather than keeping the ac on all summer
an example for winter months or skyscraper that may retain more intense weather conditions than other areas would be to implement a safer insulation around the glass and safer heating options other than the traditional gas or fan option which would disrupt normal moisture within air
inquiry framework : immerse-build background knowledge on the idea of climate change within each region in australia and what the appropriate methods should be done in order to build or create a material that is suitable to is in the seasons correspondingly

The most important steps in resolving this question are as follows:
- Research
- Analysis
- Presentation

Research: Firstly, you would search for reports regarding St Kilda Beach eg. Wave Height, Injury Reports, Animal Inhabitant, Wind Speed etc. You would primarily search through literature such as journals,articles also you could also research through newspapers and media outlets. If no credible or recent studies have been conducted; then the researcher could also possibly conduct an investigation himself  aka 'data crunching'.

Analysis: After gathering sufficient credible data and information; the researcher would then analyse and investigate the trends and link them back to the topic at hand 'Is it safe to swim at St Kilda Beach?'.

Presentation: Finally, after all of the above steps are completed; the researcher would then present his findings to an appropriate audience; e.g. government officials, and experts in the field. Once the answer has been validated by those mentioned above; the researcher would then answer the question via Media Outlets for St Kilda Visitors.

Yeah the boys.
