The University of Newcastle Public Domain Manual
1.1 Overview
1.3 Purpose of the Manual
The University of Newcastle Callaghan Campus is located on the land of the traditional Indigenous owners, the Pambalong clan of the Awabakal nation. Callaghan is located about 10km west of the City of Newcastle and boasts a unique natural bushland character.
The PDM provides design guidelines, standard products and typical details for external materials including pavements; roads and services; structures, walls and fences; lighting; soft landscaping and outdoor furniture. It will help to improve the public domain quality, legibility and provide continuity across the Campus’s diverse landscape. The purpose of the PDM is:
This Public Domain Manual (PDM) establishes a suite of products and finishes to deliver the Strategic and Master Plan vision and improve the users experience. It coordinates product choices and provides technical details to help the installation and maintenance of campus facilities.
1.2 Manual Aim The PDM aim is to respond to the beautiful campus setting to create a contemporary bushland campus. The manual standardises the selection of materials and finishes and provides technical information to help improve efficiencies in the project delivery process. It will also coordinate product choice to facilitate maintenance and reduce operational needs. The proposed public domain finishes and elements reflect the university values: Excellence, Equality, Engagement and Sustainability to enhance the user experience and provide an inclusive, activated, beautiful and sustainable campus
• Provide clear guidelines for the choice of materials and fixtures for future public domain installations and incremental spaces and facilities improvement projects • Provide guidance to people implementing elements in the public domain • Deliver efficiencies to the design, documentation, procurement and construction of works in the public domain • Ensure consistency with the University of Newcastle’s sustainability, master plan and development policies • Increase engagement and consultation with student, staff, stakeholders and the community to improve public domain outcomes • To respect and respond unique bushland campus character and protect sensitive and/or heritage places. Application of the PDM will help ensure consistent design and quality expectations for the public realm within the Campus, whether delivered by the University of Newcastle or other parties. Over time, this will deliver a public domain that has a coherent character, celebrates and protects the natural environment; is inclusive, activated and sustainable.

1.4 Using the Manual
The PDM is structured as follows: Section 1 - Introduction
The University of Newcastle PDM is a guide, reference and checklist tool for everyone involved (i.e. delivery managers) in the planning, design, approval, delivery and care of the public domain for the Callaghan Campus. Delivery managers include: • • • •
Asset Managers and Ground Staff Precinct Managers Project Managers (internal and external) Planning and Design consultants
The PDM applies to all work carried out in all habitable public domain areas on the Callaghan Campus which is under the care, control and management of the University of Newcastle. The Manual focuses on the Callaghan Campus, however the elements and standard details can be used across all campuses to help unify and assist maintenance. Consideration of local character and planning control (City of Newcastle) is needed at each locality. The Manual is to be used in conjunction with the University’s Standard Details and Guidelines to ensure new works implemented are coordinated and consistent. All works must comply with Australian Standards, National Construction Code and relevant approval authorities such as Transport for NSW, Hunter Water, Energy Australia and other relevant authorities.
Provides the aims, purpose and consultation framework for the preparation of the document and outlines its use and relationship with other documents. Section 2 - The Campus Environment Includes a description of the existing Campus including the main public domain places and circulation routes, both existing and proposed, where proposed elements apply. Section 3 - Objectives and Principles Describes the design considerations and objectives and principles that inform the selection of elements. Section 4 - Public Domain Guidelines Describes the design palette including product information, specification notes and technical details for each element. The PDM provides standard technical details which have been approved for use. Prior to use, site investigations are required to determine geotechnical conditions and confirm structural design requirements. The urban design palette sheets are formatted as a double page spread as follows:

Applicable Area
Procurement Requirements
The Landscape Management Implementation Plan (2012) focuses on the management and embellishment of the campus and bushland. This document also relates to the Newcastle Council Tree Management DCP 2012 and Urban Forest Technical Manual (UFTM). The Management Plan provides guidelines for biodiversity bush regeneration offsets needed for pruning, tree removals and development on the Callaghan Campus. A separate Biodiversity Plan will be prepared to manage and improve the bushland areas on campus. This will supersede the Landscape Management Plan.
The procurement of services, products and equipment is governed by the University Procurement Policy. The purchase of nominated items must accord with Procurement Policy.
The PDM focuses on the habitable external campus areas and excludes the natural bushland areas. The management of native bushland areas is covered by the Landscape Management Plan - refer Figure 1. Introduction 8
The nominated products, elements and installation details in the PDM are preferred products and details endorsed for construction. The use of alternative equivalent suppliers is acceptable. This must be done in consultation and agreement with the asset managers.

1.5 Reviewing & Updating The Manual
1.6 Relationship with Other Documents
Currently three Design Standards control public domain improvements and landscape management on the Callaghan Campus, which often duplicates information.
The University of Newcastle Hunter Region Master Plan (Hassell, 2019) was commissioned to establish strategic frameworks, design principles and key business objectives to inform future capital development. The Masterplan vision includes:
Landscape improvement works, new equipment and furniture on campus are implemented by different areas and staff within the University by either smaller asset replacement and maintenance works or as part of larger capital improvement projects. These also include external Project Managers and Design Consultants. The PDM is a working document that will be reviewed and amended, with new elements added overtime. It builds on the previous University of Newcastle Public Domain Manual with additions and updates. It also interfaces with and supersedes three other documents that control public domain improvements and landscape management. These include: • Landscape Technical Manual (2008) • Landscape Management Implementation Plan (2012) in part • Public Domain Manual (2015 and 2020). This update aims to: • Streamline information duplicated in multiple documents • Promote ownership among the various University of Newcastle departments responsible for the curation and care of public spaces • The document and numbering aims to facilitate the easy insertion of additional elements, or deletion of obsolete elements as required. Revision changes will be documented in the Revisions Summary.
Introduction 10
• Re-imagine the campus experience with public nodes as flexible event spaces to provide vibrant, engaging and community centric activity hubs • Provide safe, inclusive and welcoming campuses with legible movement paths and improved transport options • Provide engaging, high quality and activated campuses which celebrate and enhance the unique character of each campus • Consolidate the student and academic campus areas to improve access, activation and liveability and encourage industry engagement and enable joint research opportunities • Unlock the financial opportunities and improve sustainability by increasing utilisation and reducing the campus footprint and operational needs • Activate and diversify the campus with a mix of student residential and community uses and improve connection to the surrounding community. The PDM aim is to establish design principles and select elements which when combined achieve a coherent whole that realises the broader objectives identified in the University of Newcastle Hunter Region Master Plan and the New Grows - Environmental Sustainability Plan 2018-2025. The PDM interfaces and is influenced by several other University Design Standards, Specifications and Plans. The PDM has referenced and is coordinated with these documents where possible, but must be read in conjunction with other Design Guidelines and Specifications as outlined in the following table:

2.1 Vision
2.2 Objectives
The University Strategic Plan 2020-2025 establishes a vision to re-image our campuses. The vision is to create activated, inclusive and welcoming campuses with collaborative learning environments, research facilities and recreational opportunities for students, staff and the community.
The physical campus is an important aspect of university life. The PDM responds to the beautiful campus setting to create a contemporary bushland campus. The public domain finishes and elements reflect the university values - Excellence, Equality, Engagement and Sustainability - to enhance the user experience and provide an inclusive, activated, beautiful and sustainable campus. The PDM objectives are:
The University values included below set the standards expected, encouraged and nurtured in students and staff. They guide decision-making and position the University to achieve its purpose. Excellence - Pursue the exceptional and strive for innovation in teaching, research and operating environment. Equity - A commitment to equity, diversity and inclusiveness is fundamental to everything the university does. It believes that every person has the right to participate and succeed. Engagement - Staff, students, alumni and communities are deeply connected to the challenges and opportunities in the region and beyond. Sustainability - The university is ethically minded and prioritises responsible management of the environment and financial resources These values underpin what the University does and shape how it delivers projects to provide a vibrant, engaging and beautiful campus which improves the student experience.
Campus Vision 14
• Provide an inclusive, welcoming and safe campus for students, staff, visitors and the community • Respectfully acknowledge the traditional landowners and engage with Country and culture to create a meaningful and rich campus environment • Protect and respond to the campus character • Support the university business; meet WHS requirements; enhance well-being and improve the student experience • Improve environmental performance and sustainability and increase biodiversity on Campus • Create a legible, beautiful and unified public domain • Maximise life-cycle and maintenance benefits; and reduce capital and operational costs.
The University of Newcastle Public Domain Manual
2.3 Design Principles The following principles are based on the University’s values and have guided the development of the public domain palette and selection of materials and fixtures: Achieves Design Excellence The University aims to achieve a level of design quality that is above and beyond standard practice. This includes: • High quality design that contributes significantly to the overall impression of campus character • Achieving, at a minimum, relevant and applicable standards for public domain use • Avoiding a formulaic approach by promoting site specific design with bespoke, as well as standard University elements • Embracing technology, including ‘Green’ technologies, allowing everyone to remain ‘connected’ whilst in the public domain. Responds to Existing Character The PDM focusses on creating the desired image of a vibrant and contemporary ‘bushland’ campus by providing: • A unified and coordinated palette of materials and fixtures that promote a distinctive bushland character across campus • A focus on modern, robust, simple and elegantly detailed designs • Visual compatibility with existing materials and fixtures to allow for staged improvements. Maximises Environmental Performance and Life-cycle The University aims to pursue a sustainability approach to the planning, design and implementation of public domain works by: • Sourcing materials with low embodied energy and prioritising locally sourced elements to reduce transport costs and to support the local community • Basing plant species selection on suitability to location, drought, heat and wind tolerance; resistance to pathogens; low water and maintenance requirements; shade provision, life span and habitat embellishment • Use endemic native plant species were possible • Selecting repairable furniture • Maximising waste diversion from landfill • Choosing recycled materials • Selecting materials with the ability to withstand climatic conditions and everyday wear and tear, and to resist or deter vandalism • Undertaking water sensitive urban design (WSUD) principles including water recycling and reuse, and permeable paving • Considering initial capital cost and ongoing capital costs • Investigating availability of volume pricing and competitive pricing. Campus Vision 15
The University of Newcastle Public Domain Manual
Engages with Country and Culture The University has a proud record in Indigenous higher education, innovation and engagement with the Indigenous community. The planning process should include: • Indigenous people either leading or co-leading the Indigenous elements of any design • Engagement with and guidance by the Aboriginal community and recognised knowledge holders • Consultation with local Indigenous knowledge holders to gain permission before using more sensitive ideas such as the symbolism, patterns, etc, which constitute cultural intellectual property. Inclusive to all The University highly values inclusiveness for all students, staff and visitors to the Campus, so that people can gain access and fully participate in the public domain. The design of the public domain should: • Provide sufficient space for access to movement around and within the selected furniture and fixtures • Allow for co-location of accessible alongside non-accessible furniture • Allow for all pathways to be accessible through the appropriate choice of materials, running and cross slopes, landings and tactiles • Avoid the need for separate ‘accessible’ items wherever possible and practical • Be fit for purpose at the required locations • Focus on comfort and usability.
Campus Vision 16
The University of Newcastle Public Domain Manual
2.4 Design Considerations The selection of materials, fixtures and fittings in the PDM is informed by a number of legislative Acts, standards and other requirements to provide a safe and equitable environment for all Campus users. Applicable requirements documented in Workplace Health and Safety legislation, Disability Discrimination legislation, State Environmental Planning legislation, Commonwealth and State legislation, National Construction Codes (NCC), the Building Code of Australia (BCA) and Australian and New Zealand Standards (AS/ NZS) are the minimum and mandatory compliance requirements.
2.3.3 Bushfire Requirements The existing vegetation and bush campus character are unique; however, it also creates a fire risk. The bushfire risk varies depending on location and its proximity to bushland which is managed as part of the day to day campus operation. This works includes reducing fire load material; and clearing and management of vegetation to provide separation and establish Asset Protection Zones (APZ). Careful consideration of vegetation structure (height and density) and material types is required when selecting materials and in planting design as part of the project delivery. Materials will be durable, UV stable and where possible non-combustible.
The design, selection and placement of public domain elements shall, at a minimum, conform to relevant Australian Standards, Austroad Guide to Road Design and Transport for NSW specifications.
A Bushfire Risk Management Plan has been prepared for Callaghan and Ourimbah Campus to identify bushfire zones and Bushfire Attack Levels (BAL). Materials, product selection and designs must accord with the Bushfire Management Plan. The Rural Fire Services also has significant resources about building best practice in bushfire areas.
2.3.2 Disability Discrimination Act Compliance
2.3.4 Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design
The Commonwealth Disability Discrimination Act 1992 provides protection for everyone in Australia against discrimination based on disability. As part of its commitment to providing accessible physical infrastructure for its students, staff and visitors, the University of Newcastle has produced an Access Design Guideline (2018). Its purpose is to provide an institution-specific Access Design Guideline for physical infrastructure at the University of Newcastle. It aims to provide a standard suite of access requirements that can be used to guide improvements with the University, and to provide all University staff with a clear understanding of legislative and institutional-specific requirements which should be applied to access of physical infrastructure.
The Crime Prevention and the Assessment of Development Applications guidelines (NSW Department of Urban Affairs and Planning, 2001) outlines four principles for minimising the opportunity for crime in the design of a building or place:
2.3.1 Australian Standards and other Guidelines
• • • •
Surveillance Access control Territorial reinforcement Space management
Surveillance The principle of surveillance aims to reduce the attractiveness of crime targets by providing opportunities for effective surveillance by: • Providing clear sight lines between public and private places • Effective lighting of public places • Landscaping that makes places attractive, but does not provide offenders with a place to hide or entrap victims.
Campus Vision 17
The University of Newcastle Public Domain Manual
Access control
2.3.6 Statutory Planning
The principle of access control aims to minimise opportunities for crime and increase the effort required to commit crime through design cues that attract, channel or restrict the movement of people through a space.
Universities are classified as Public Authorities for the purpose of the State Environmental Planning Policy (Educational Establishments and Child Care Facilities) 2017. This allows the University to undertake certain development without the need for consent from a consent authority.
Territorial reinforcement The principle of territorial reinforcement aims to reduce opportunities for crime and increase risk to criminals by encouraging the sense of community ownership of a space. Space management Linked to the principle of territorial reinforcement, space management ensures that space is appropriately utilised and well cared for. Any design should aim to minimise the need for, and facilitate the ease of, maintenance through: • The choice of durable materials and finishes that can withstand the inevitable wear-and-tear of public use with minimal maintenance. Where maintenance is necessary, the finishes can generally be repaired on site • Consistent application of a restricted suite of public domain furniture (bins, bollards, lights, drinking fountains), with coordinated finishes and colours, that facilitates maintenance and repair by limiting the range of spare parts required • Ease of access to all parts of the Campus for maintenance staff and equipment. 2.3.5 Hostile Vehicle Terrorism Where large groups of people gather in a public area such as a university campus, there is a potential risk of a vehicle being used for a terrorist act or hostile vehicle terrorism (HVT). Security advice suggests the likelihood of HVT at the Callaghan Campus is low. It is likely to increase in more populated areas such as the Newcastle CBD, commercial and retail hubs and events. A HVT event is more likely to occur on ‘soft targets’ with large volumes of people in open areas where a vehicle can approach at high speeds. The use of barriers, bollards and furniture to impede direct vehicle routes and reduce speeds can decrease the risk and likelihood of a HVT event.
Campus Vision 18
In the Infrastructure State Environmental Planning Policy (ISEPP) identified Landscaping is classified as Exempt Development. As part of the implementation process, the person responsible for the project delivery should: • Review scope of works and check the planning approval pathways • Confirm the approval requirements • Document or obtain consent (EIS, REF or Development Application) • Achieve compliance with planning legislation. 2.3.7 Designing with Country The University of Newcastle is a leader in Indigenous education and employment, and a diverse and welcoming multicultural space whose students and staff are Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, global citizens, locals and those from our region. The Indigenous Higher Education Framework and the Reconciliation Action Plan establishes and coordinate Indigenous activities, programs and projects on campus. Projects should strive to reconnect place, culture and country, however must be done respectfully, and in consultation with Elders and the Wollotuka Institute. Careful consideration about cultural appropriation is needed to ensure projects and artwork are appropriate to the local Nations. The Australian Council for the Arts has released a guideline to address key legal, ethical and moral considerations for the use of Indigenous cultural material in the arts. The protocols are a useful resource for anyone working with First Nations artists or within the First Nations arts and cultural sector.

2.7.8 Consultation
2.5 Campus Environment
The University Strategic Plan 2020-2025 establishes our values of Excellence, Engagement, Equity and Sustainability and a vision to re-imagine our campuses. The vision is to create activated, inclusive and welcoming campuses with collaborative learning environments, research facilities and recreational opportunities for students, staff and the community.
The University of Newcastle’s Callaghan Campus is located on the land of the traditional Indigenous owners, the Pambalong clan of the Awabakal nation. It is about 10 kilometres west of the Newcastle Central Business District.
The physical campus is an important part of university life for students and the Callaghan campus is a unique workplace for staff and visitors. At any one time there could be over several thousand people on our main campus at Callaghan and a key component in creating an engaging, inclusive and activated public domain is giving people the opportunity to help shape their built environment in order to build these connections. Consultation involves actively seeking the opinions of interested and affected groups and is a two-way flow of information. A genuine engagement and consultation process will help ensure a project, space or new facility will meet a diverse community’s needs. This process will also ensure an increase usability and enjoyment by forming connections and instilling a sense of pride in the campus and organisation alike. An effective and genuine consultation process will also save potential time and costs of rework to under-utilised facilities. The use of an Engagement and Consultation Framework in projects from the start will assist with the selection of the level of participation that defines the stakeholders role in any community engagement program. Ensuring effective consultation will ensure better outcomes for the project and better outcomes for the users of the project.
The site is bounded by the Hunter Line rail corridor to the north, University Drive to the south, and the Newcastle Inner City Bypass and Shortland Waters Golf Club, to the west. The 140-hectare campus is bisected by the Bowinbah and Boatman Creeks and wetlands. Historically, the main campus area was on the western Shortland portion of the site with the student residences located on the eastern side. The central Hunter Precinct was allocated for the Teachers’ College. The University and College grew almost in parallel, however with Federal Government reforms the University and Teachers’ College were amalgamated in 1989. The early 1990’s the Hunter and Shortland campuses were consolidated into a single entity and the bushland campus vision was established with extensive revegetation planting. New link paths and pedestrian bridges were implemented over the wooded creek gullies to connect the three precincts along the upper slopes. The Callaghan Campus is an exemplary model of the Australian bushland campus. Paths weave through a wooded canopy and buildings are set within the natural environment. The native flora and fauna covering the campus contribute to the character and identity of the University. In keeping with the ethos of the bushland campus model, building development has until recently has been low-density and grown in intermittent phases with individual building projects spread across the 140-hectare site. This has resulted in isolated and introverted structures with a complex web of paths, poor access, and a general lack of vibrancy. Due to the large campus size and to address equality and operational issues, large car parking areas are provided right into the campus core which has created a car dominated environment with poor pedestrian amenity and safety.

Campus Vision 20
The University of Newcastle Public Domain Manual
The beautiful bushland character helps unify the campus, however the multitude of different materials and fixtures used degrades the user’s experience and reduces legibility and wayfinding around the Campus. 2.5.1 Campus Spaces The University’s Hunter Region Master Plan describes the intention to create a number of distinct precincts around the Campus with specific functions and activities. These Campus spaces include the public spaces on campus that foster social interaction. They are spaces where students, staff, faculty and visitors can meet and interact on formal, ceremonial or primarily informal occasions. These spaces are fundamental to the fostering of an inclusive and engaging campus social environment. They are also critical to the overall impression of campus character and the projection of the desired ‘vibrant, contemporary bushland campus’ identity. The Master Plan vision if for these places to be individually designed with an overarching view to enhance the overall student experience, and to better support the way we need to work. Each precinct will be part of a balanced ecosystem which enables multidisciplinary practice, a vibrant student experience, a centralised and navigable campus, and fit for purpose facilities. 2.5.2 Planting The vision is to provide a contemporary bushland campus with canopy trees and low ground plane with green lawns and lush, native plants ground cover and shrub spaces. The landscape planting should provide a range of experiences and maximise diversity with seasonal flower and colour display to improve vibrancy and visual amenity on campus as well as and providing habitat. The use of mid-level (1.5m-4m high) plant species should be reduced and avoided in the core public campus areas to provide good sight lines to help wayfinding, activation, safety, and security. Regeneration and planting activities in the Bushland areas will be covered in the Biodiversity Plan (Landscape Management Plans 2012) to protect threatened species, increase diversity, create habitat, and improve the ecological value on campus.
2.5.3 Legibility, Access and Circulation Circulation spaces are the predominant public spaces on campus, providing connections for pedestrians, cyclists and vehicles between campus buildings and key activity centres. In general, it is evident that the campus circulation spaces currently prioritise vehicles over pedestrians and cyclists. The University’s Hunter Region Master Plan and recent facilities development on campus have sought to redress this imbalance – through a Movement Strategy that aims to prioritise pedestrians by: • Maintaining the campus vehicle ring road and entrance and exit points through to University Drive • Using the campus ring road as a demarcation area for an internal pedestrian priority zone that restricts vehicle entry where possible • Locating new car parking facilities outside the campus ring road • Continuing to deliver the smart path strategy colocating night-time teaching activities • Continuing to provide the University’s internal bus service for the campus and strengthen the prominence and convenience of public transport stops • Working with local infrastructure and transport partners to establish the Callaghan Campus as a transport hub. Pedestrian and cyclist priority would be achieved by: • Implementing a more formalised landscape strategy, surrounding key pathways to allow for clear sight lines and simpler wayfinding, whilst moving through the campus • Strengthening entry gateways and key connections through activated buildings, public realm treatments and wayfinding devices to reinforce the movement network, improve the arrival experience, walkability and overall campus experience • Promoting safety, convenience, accessibility and inclusivity in the design of campus connections, including smart paths and a night time strategy and accessibility through a CPTED program with improved lighting, surveillance, activity and safety points.

3.1 Overview
3.2 Public Domain Palette
Public domain guidelines and palettes have been developed to promote a cohesive character and sense of identity for the public domain spaces at the Callaghan Campus.
The PDM provides palettes and specifications for the following elements within the public domain: A) Pavements and stairs as well as associated fittings such as tactile indicators, pit lids and handrails B) Road infrastructure C) Built structures including shelters and bus stops D) Walls,edges and fences E) Lighting, electrical and services including CCTV F) Furniture G) Soft landscaping. Each element in this chapter is described as follows: Design Strategy • Strategy guiding selection of palette/elements, including reference to desired character attributes. Principles • Guiding principles driven by the Design Strategy, particularly highlighting if any alternative solutions might be appropriate, or if there are particular issues to keep in mind in applying the palette. Materials/product palettes and their performance criteria • Nominated fixtures, materials and specifications, including reference to critical standards where relevant, e.g. dimensions, ratings, surface treatments, etc. These are supplemented by technical drawings/ details.

Design Strategy
Principles
The paving material palette has been designed to reinforce the path hierarchy and provide a coherent visual identity throughout the Campus. The materials and finishes create a complementary bushland character of the Campus, which is consistent with the aspirations outlined in the University’s Hunter Region Master Plan.
•
Create coherence by consistently expressing the hierarchy of pathways throughout the Campus, whilst allowing for variation where deemed appropriate:
TIER
TREATMENT
LOCATION
1
Large format unit pavers Trihex exposed aggregate concrete paver
Key plazas/civic areas and Shortland Walk
2
Light wash in situ Smart/Primary paths concrete
3
Medium wash in situ concrete
Design Considerations The proposed pavement uses simple, robust and sustainable materials to reflect the natural bushland and established character. Wide generous path and a restrained palette will unify the campus and improve legibility. Where possibles large paved areas should be minimised to increase permeability and meet WSUD requirements Careful consideration should be made to ensure the campus is inclusive and all pavements are slip resistant, use green options or recycled content where possible The paving palette acknowledges the existing situation, and has nominated materials that may be readily sourced, maintained, and repaired following successive phases of construction.

Paths to have a maximum 1:20 longitudinal slope and 1:40 crossfall Adopt best practises of urban sustainability through recycled materials and low embodied energy costs. All service pits are to include infill paving where possible to ensure consistent visual look and feel. Employ textural, colour and jointing changes to minimise the monotony of expansive pavement areas All external pavements must achieve a P4 wet rating - External Footpath under 1:14 at a minimum.

Road Infrastructure
The University of Newcastle Public Domain Manual
Design Strategy
Principles
The design strategy for road infrastructure focuses on prioritising the public domain amenity for pedestrians and bike riders on campus. The aim is to reduce the physical and visual impacts of vehicles on the student experience and increase the use of bikes for short trips and active transport on Campus.
• Recognise the reservation width of existing roads on Campus is fixed • Minimise regulatory traffic signage to reduce visual clutter • Provide traffic calming devices to reduce speeds • Ensure pedestrian crossings are installed where needed on main circulation routes • All shared areas to have a vehicular speed limit of 10kmh • Consider the use of sustainable materials such as green concrete and Reconophalt where possible • Incorporate planting and shade trees to roads and car parks to improve amenity and reduce hard surfaces • Incorporate WSUD principles to capture water runoff and divert to surrounding garden beds. • All new roads to be designed to site specific geotechnical requirements.
Design Considerations • To make all road on campus consistent with the typical road environment to improve legibility, use and safety. Paving, linemarking and signage should adopt Transport for NSW standards and Austroads standards where possible • Prioritise pedestrians throughout the campus, particularly on roads within the Ring Road. • Measures to manage traffic are to be balanced with pedestrian experience and the existing geometry of streets

Design Strategy
Principles
Built structures include shade shelters, bus shelters, decking, small storage and service buildings. The goal of inclusion in the Public Domain Manual is to provide guidance on material palette and principles, while allowing room for bespoke designs to be developed that are site specific and responsive to place. The choice of approach would be guided by the structure’s purpose, it’s relevance to wayfinding within the Campus, whether it seeks to establish a point of interest or be recessive, and how it might reinforce a site-specific response to place.
•
Design Considerations • • • •
Roads & Services
• •
Ramps and Deck Structures •
All structures, including shelters, bus stops and walkways to be DDA compliant Materials used in construction to have a minimum Bushfire Attack Level of 29 Colour selection and design details of structures to take design cues from the surrounding built environment Sustainable construction practices and materials.
Pavements and Stairs
•
Structures
Use materials that are robust and complement the campus character Create coherence by consistently expressing the hierarchy of materials throughout the Campus, whilst also allowing variation where deemed appropriate. Ensure shelters provide adequate environmental protection Structures must not impede pedestrian access or accessible path of travel.
Pedestrian walkway structures are included in the following preferential hierarchy: 1. Concrete (Kangatrak) 2. Micro Mesh 3. Composite decking (Ekodeck ‘Alpine Ash’)

Design Strategy
Principles
The aim to provide a safe, welcoming and inclusive campus at all times. The campus is used by students, staff and residents 24/7. Good lighting and CCTV cameras help University Security provide a safe place but also contribute to the feel and amenity in both the day and night-time. The lighting strategy aim is to provide good quality and consistent light rather than lots of light to enable people to move safely, help wayfinding and improve the visual amenity. Where possible, lights should be a consistent height and spaced to help unify the public domain and avoid under or over-lit areas. The use of Multipoles and coordinating light poles will also reduce visual clutter. Feature lighting for specific sites or buildings should be designed with advice from a specialist lighting design and electrical consultant.
Design Considerations • CCTV cameras are to be located with consideration to sight lines and passive surveillance • Lights should be mounted at a consistent height and evenly spaced along pathways.
Pavements and Stairs
Roads & Services
Structures
• Only light primary paths routes • Improve legibility and wayfinding at night and reduce visual clutter, light spill and energy consumption • Minimise the number of light poles and fittings to reduce clutter • Poles to be multifunctional: integrate all services where possible (power, CCTV, PA, functional, Architectural, spotlighting) • Lighting design must address minimum lighting levels as defined in the UON-ESS-103 External Lighting Specification • Ensure light spill does not impact residential areas of the campus and environmentally sensitive areas • Provide power efficient LED fittings. Exterior lighting design shall be as per AS 1158.3.1:2020. The following lighting categories shall be used for the purpose of lighting design: Area

Luminaire Selection Apply the following general criteria for luminaire selection: • Luminaires to be LED • CR > 80 [The colour rendering of the light needs to be high so that peoples skin tones are flattering and the space appears colourful and alive (Colour Rendering Index is a measure of how accurately a light source renders a range of colours)] • CCT 3000k [The colour appearance of the light is warm, as cold light makes a space appear harsh and sterile. Cold light also has more impact on the biota and the night sky.] • Lens Based Luminaires [Glare from the lights should be minimized] • Avoid the use of lights that use direct LEDs, as the glare from these types of fittings is generally poorly controlled • Manufactures warranty minimum 5 years • Appropriate light distribution and energy efficiency (best design practice).

Design Strategy
Principles
Proprietary products have been nominated to ensure ease of procurement, maintenance, and installation. The overall objectives of this palette are to evoke a unified look and feel throughout the Campus in order to create a cohesive identity.
• • • •
Promotes a recognisable character for the campus Avoid visual clutter Be accessible to all campus users including those with disabilities Be comfortable and appropriately located.
Design Considerations •
•
• • • •
Furniture and seating are located to take advantage of outlook and available shade at different times of day, and both benefitting from and to provide passive surveillance Equitable seating (allowing use by children, wheelchair users etc. alongside standard furniture), some with seat backs and arm rests, is provided across the Campus to provide frequent resting places Ensure adequate circulation space is provided around furniture elements to allow equitable access Resilience to wear and tear due to environmental conditions, potential relocation, and vandalism Adopt best practices of urban sustainability through recycled materials and low embodied energy costs Bespoke furniture elements limited to special places

Skate deterrent for Public environments Deterrent to stop skaters from skating on pathways & building features Skate deterrance should be considered in the overall design. Areas of the campus should be identified where skating is allowed, to control skateboard use in suitable spaces
Design principles to minimise damage to public domain elements: 1) Design spaces which discourage use by skateboarders by: - The use of textured non-skateable paving such as cobblestone or gravel (while not creating accessibility issues) in front of elements prone to skating such as walls, terraces, stairs and seats. - The strategic location of furniture (light poles, bins, seats etc) at key approach zones - i.e. near the end of walls etc. - The detailing of walls, terraces and seats with rebates, protrusions or armrests which eliminate skateboard use. 2) Providing steel edges or pipe edges in walls and terraces to accommodate skateboard use in desirable areas without damaging public domain elements. The location of skateable elements must minimise conflict with pedestrians and other users and minimise noise impacts to buildings and people nearby. 3) Install anti-skate deterrents and buttons on handrails.

Design Strategy
Principles
The University of Newcastle Callaghan is an exemplar bushland campus. The planting strategy aim is to retain, respect and enhance the existing native flora and create a contemporary bushland campus.
• •
The planting palette must be consistent with the endemic ecological communities and plant species to create a complex, diverse and beautiful campus for public enjoyment and habitat. The key communities include:
• •
• • •
Coastal Foothills Spotted Gum - Ironbark Forest Dry Variant Coastal Foothills Spotted Gum - Ironbark Forest Moist Variant and Riparian Closed Forest
The base planting palette could be further enriched for the following reasons:
•
• • • •
Treatments • •
• To highlight a special place such as entries • To strengthen existing planting • To emphasise landscape character or reconstruct ecologies • For functional (shade, screening) or aesthetic use.
Improve Campus amenity Avoid dense mid level plants to ensure good sight lines for safety and security Establish a green grass or low shrub ground plane and tree trunk character Minimise maintenance in bushland areas. Increase biological diversity and support indigenous bushland structure. Manage erosion. Minimise weed presence Create seasonal flowering interest and variation Create a green, complex, diverse and lush landscape planting which improve the visual amenity.
• •
Plant areas prone to erosion with suitable fast growing ground-covers in soil stabilising matting. Plant suitable indigenous plants according to aspect, vegetation community and soils. Upon weeding and weed removal, mass plant with suitable indigenous plants. Fast establishing indigenous plants such as Acacias should be used in succession with longer lived plants to provide a long term bushland treatment to minimise ongoing work.

Soils and Mulch Topsoil Type A Imported Planting Topsoil
• • • • •
• Turf Underlay
• • •
The mix must meet all the requirements of AS 4419 – Landscape Soils for Soil Blends. Control sample and soil testing certificate required Topsoil Mix Type A must be an organically enriched well drained sandy loam topsoil mix designed to provide aeration and nutritional as well as water holding benefits for tree root zones. Location: top 300mm of mass planted beds and tree pits – refer drawings. Components by volume Medium grade clean sand 50-60% Sandy loam soil 20-30% Composted organic matter conforming with AS 4454 SC 10-20%. Alternatively a sandy loam to which 25% composted garden waste is applied could achieve the same particle size properties as a sand/soil mix. Imported topsoil classed as Quarried Virgin Excavated Natural Material (VENM). Clay/silt content as determined by AS1141.12 (Wash Grading) is to be between 5-10% by weight. 60-70% fine washed river sand, 20-30% sandy loam soil, 10% organic matter. The material is to be compliant by providing a recent test result in accordance with the above requirements for approval prior to delivery.
Topdressing
•
Imported coarse sand to AS 4419, suitable for application to grass areas.
Topsoil Type B Tree Pit Backfill
• •
Designed to provide maximum drainage rate and compaction resistance. Water and nutrient holding capacity is enhanced by the addition of some soil but the matrix is very sandy. A very small amount of particulate organic matter (e.g. pine bark) is acceptable to provide better water holding without impeding drainage. If the sand contains some fine material lesser amounts of soil than those suggested may be required. A small amount of fertiliser is added to promote rapid initial root growth. Components by volume: Medium grade clean sand 70-80% Sandy loam soil 10-20% Composted organic matter conforming with AS 4454 SC 10 %
• • •
Organic Mulch
Mulch is to be free of deleterious and extraneous matter such as soil, weeds and sticks. Do not include fine mulch. Standard: • Particle size, physical and chemical contaminants: To AS 4454 Table 3.1(A). • pH, electrical conductivity, ammonium, chlorine and other nutrients: To AS 3743 Table 2.1 for regular mix. • Organic mulches: Free of stones and debris. • Mulch material: Brush chippings and leaf litter recovered from site clearing, if available; otherwise, ANL ‘Forest Fines’ or approved equivalent. Brush chippings and leaf litter: • Vegetative material processed through a chipper to pieces not larger than 50 x 50 x 15 mm • Material permitted: Leaf matter and tree loppings • Material not permitted: Leaf matter and tree loppings from privet, camphor laurel, coral tree, poplar, willow, and noxious weeds.

Shrubs - 200mm, 140mm pots or tubestock as specified Topsoil - Improved site topsoil or imported topsoil Type A as specified Mulch - ‘Forest Fines’ as specified • Rip existing subgrade to 150mm depth • Excavate hole twice the diameter of the root ball and at least 100mm deeper than the root ball • Tubes may require water when first received. Using spray nozzle or watering rose wet thoroughly. • Water thoroughly ½ hour prior to planting to comply with Hunter Water’s Smart Water Choices initiative • Soil level should be equal to that of the media in the tube, however raised planting may be a good idea in boggy areas (building the soil up from its normal level to increase drainage). • When in ground settle with thorough water • Do not put fertilizer straight in planting hole • If unable to plant immediately, containers can be kept in a moist and partly sunny position away from hot afternoon sun and also kept well watered. • When moving plant into the planting hole, disturb the rootball as little as possible • Place shrub in center of hole. If necessary, straighten or stabilize by adjusting or filling beneath the root ball with backfill • To encourage root growth, tease the outer roots from the soil • If the roots are tightly matted, use a knife to score the root mass in several places and gently loosen the root ball • Shrubs should be checked and watered every other day for the first two weeks • When planting around existing trees plant by hand using trowel being sensitive of existing tree roots

Installation Maintenance
• Design to ensure flows are well distributed across the full width of the swale and the longitudinal grade of the swale is kept low enough (typically less than 4% grade) to maintain slower flow conditions. • Direct swales along contours to low point where possible • Planting or turf can involve a variety of vegetation types including turf, sedges and tufted grasses • Ballast can be used as surface treatment on steeper grade • Planting is required to cover the whole width of the swale • Swale planting must be capable of withstanding design flows • Plant distribution within swale must be of sufficient density to prevent scouring via flow paths

Maintenance
• During installation that swales are easily maintainable. • Replacement of any damaged turf or inferior plants • Weeding as necessary

Bioretention Raingarden The purpose of a rain garden is to remove surface contaminates (oils and silts) in storm water running off from paved areas, car parks and roads. The aim is to clean storm water before it runs into a natural creek system or to collect the water for reuse. Drainage (Bottom) Layer Min 200mm deep (minimum) consisting of clean gravel 2mm to 5mm to provide 50mm of cover over the sub-soil drain Transition (Middle) Layer Min 100mm deep (minimum) sand/ coarse sand material to filter smaller particles from filter layer to drainage layer Filter Media (Top Layer) This layer is where the majority of the water quality treatment occurs and so the sourcing and placement of this material is critical to the effective operation of the system.
