Tangled Triangle — Conceptual Geometry

Plan and section sketches that show the nature of the physical boundaries: canal (south, ground level); road (west) crossing over canal; railway (NW–SE) on viaduct over road & canal; old mining passage (W–E at ~10 m depth); overhead HV line (N–S).

Tip: toggle layers and adjust assumed bands to compare their geometric overlaps with the site. Overlap does not determine buildability.

Section — vertical cut along a movable N↔S line

x = 100 m (along west road)
Interpretation. Section runs north→south along the horizontal axis. Vertical axis is elevation (schematic, not to scale). The road bridge appears where the section passes the canal; the railway deck appears where the section intersects its NW–SE alignment; the HV line appears only when the section crosses x = 450 m.

Heights/clearances are conceptual placeholders for early optioneering (not design data).

Assumptions & notes

  • Geometry. Site is idealised as a triangle with vertices at: A(100,200) intersection of railway & west road; B(100,550) road–canal bridge; C(800,550) railway–canal. Railway runs on a viaduct from NW to SE; the road runs north–south; the canal runs east–west at ground level. The road crosses over the canal on a bridge; the railway viaduct flies over both. An old mining passage runs west–east at roughly 10 m below ground. An overhead HV line runs north–south across the site.
  • Buffers. Sliders show illustrative bands beside the road, canal, railway and overhead line. They are drawing inputs, not established easements, safety offsets or a calculated buildable envelope. Site-specific requirements would need separate evidence and assessment.
  • Section logic. The section is taken along a vertical plane at x = 100 m; its horizontal axis represents distance from the north boundary (left) to the south boundary (right). The railway deck is drawn where the section crosses the railway alignment; likewise for the HV line.
  • Scale & orientation. Plan view: north is up (arrow). A light 24 m grid supports quick eyeballing. Section: vertical exaggeration may be present for clarity.
