    Summary

    In this instructional video, Jaya Kandasamy discusses Assignment 3, which is due soon. The video covers how to present this assignment, providing examples of both good and bad reports. The good example highlights logical organization, meaningful data presentation, and clear explanations. In contrast, the bad example features irrelevant content, excessive graphics, and poor explanation, failing to convey important information. Emphasis is placed on logical structure and clarity in technical reports.

      Highlights

      • The assignment is due by May 1st, and it focuses on presenting results effectively. πŸ“
      • Start with a good table of contents to outline your sections logically. πŸ“Š
      • Reports must include an introduction, study scope, existing situations, and proposed solutions. πŸ—ΊοΈ
      • Good reports illustrate meaningful data with clear explanations and logical progression. πŸ†
      • Avoid inserting irrelevant data or poor visual representations that confuse rather than clarify. ❌
      • Finally, your report should provide clear recommendations and be concise. πŸ“

      Key Takeaways

      • Always start with a clear introduction and scope to set the stage for your report. πŸ“˜
      • Organize your report logically with headings, subheadings, and numbered sections to guide the reader through your findings. πŸ“‘
      • Use clear, meaningful diagrams and visuals to support your data and conclusions. 🎨
      • Avoid cluttering your report with excessive, irrelevant images and technical jargon. 🚫
      • Focus on writing reports that are not only comprehensive but also accessible to your target audience. 🌟
      • Provide recommendations and conclusions based on your data to give your report a clear purpose. πŸ”

      Overview

      In his tutorial, Jaya Kandasamy presents a detailed exploration of how to effectively present assignment results, focusing on logical structure, clear visuals, and meaningful data. Starting off, he emphasizes the importance of a structured introduction and goes on to illustrate the flow of a well-organized report using a good example. Key elements like the flood level assessment and property development implications are displayed vividly through diagrams and tables, which help solidify the reader's understanding.

        He contrasts this with a not-so-good example, riddled with irrelevant graphics and scant explanations. This example shows how reports can fail to communicate essential messages if not crafted properly. The poor example highlights a cluttered and confusing presentation where the core findings are lost amidst technical jargon and unnecessary data dumps.

          Throughout the session, Kandasamy repeatedly underscores that a report must be as clear as it is informative. Summarizing findings succinctly and making sure data presented is directly relevant to the report's objectives ensures that even someone without technical expertise can grasp the study's implications. He advocates for writing reports that line up with practical work scenarios, where clarity and precision are essential for effective communication.

            Chapters

            • 00:00 - 05:00: Introduction and Assignment Overview In the introduction and assignment overview chapter, the speaker begins by addressing the current topic of discussion - assignment number three, which has a due date of next weekend, specifically May 1st. The speaker acknowledges a gap in confirming the exact date but eventually confirms the due date as May 1st.
            • 05:00 - 43:30: Example of a Good Report The chapter titled 'Example of a Good Report' begins with a discussion scheduled for the following Sunday. The focus is on presenting results for a particular assignment. During the presentation, two examples are referenced: one considered good and the other not so good. The chapter proceeds with an initial focus on the good example, showcasing its features by projecting it on the screen. The intention is to demonstrate the characteristics that make it a valuable example.
            • 43:30 - 73:00: Example of a Bad Report The chapter titled 'Example of a Bad Report' discusses the essential elements and structure of a report. It emphasizes the importance of referring to the table of contents to understand the various sections that need to be included in a report. The speaker points out the necessity of having an introduction in any type of report, which should explain the purpose of the report and clearly define its scope.
            • 73:00 - 85:00: Conclusion and Instructions for Report Writing The chapter titled 'Conclusion and Instructions for Report Writing' focuses on the importance of detailing existing situations in reports. It discusses the procedure of comparing current flood levels with those proposed after implementing a stormwater pipe. Subsequently, the chapter highlights the necessity of concluding the report by stating the minimum floor levels required for the properties affected.

            • 00:00 - 00:30 okay good uh so today i'd like to talk about the assignment uh that is due assignment number three which is new next weekend i suppose can't see the date here it's uh anyway i think it's next weekend uh due may 1st okay which is my first is
            • 00:30 - 01:00 uh next sunday okay so that's fine so i wanted to speak to you about uh presenting the results for this assignment and i got uh two two uh examples uh one good and one's not so good so we start with a good one first i just pull that into the screen now this is just an example i just said just i think what it does is it shows you um
            • 01:00 - 01:30 it shows you uh the kind of information that people are looking for so uh whenever you start this uh be best to look at the table of contents so you can see the types of sections we want to do so you always need any type of report you need an introduction basically to say what you're doing uh the scope okay some of the scope of your
            • 01:30 - 02:00 studies then you have in this particular report we have the existing situation and this is the proposal uh the proposed stormwater pipe and then what we do is with the existing situation we obtain the flood levels and then with the revised with the proposals we have the plant levels and then we finish off and say uh what are the minimum floor levels that is required for those properties
            • 02:00 - 02:30 so what we're doing in this assignment is developing the properties in lang street i think is it's these properties four to twelve right four to twelve so you can see uh straight away that uh the uh even that one diagram i showed you it shows you very clearly what what is being done so we start with the introduction and then we go to tell you a bit about the scope
            • 02:30 - 03:00 um and then something about the existing situation what the proposal is and how that proposal was modeled and then some of the results from that and the recommendations and then the conclusions and recommendations so you can see um in the introduction uh you logically you say where cabbage tree creek is and you can google that up it's somewhere
            • 03:00 - 03:30 in wong which is south of sydney it's a creek that if you follow flooding it's a creek that always sort of floods prone to flooding so it's talking about uh you know in the introduction here it's talking about the old land flow study four to twelve lang street so straight away we know what we are doing we're talking about the overall catchment as a
            • 03:30 - 04:00 map and then the study area so you can see looks nice uh he's colored the properties that under considerations we want to find out what sort of what sort of flood levels they are in the property and you've also got the proposed pipeline the route through to the proposed pipeline okay so that's good so that's the study area so this is the
            • 04:00 - 04:30 catchment area and this is the study area and then the scope of course what do you want to do this and this basically follows the assignment so you want to model the existing situation and propose model the proposed pipes see what the pipe does to the flood levels and then recommend floor levels for for these properties okay floor levels for these properties and uh
            • 04:30 - 05:00 so basis for design is uh just talking about the heck rares using headrests for the old flow study this one probably is not really just says probably not really required but so uh existing situation what we do is we start off with where all the data comes from so this is all just saying uh where the terrain data comes from
            • 05:00 - 05:30 you know [Music] yeah this is the terrain model you say it's catching more boundary but i think it's the terrain model and then the rainfall data which is uh and the floor data which is given and then the road geometry of course comes from the maps and the house geometry also comes from the google maps so all that you can say so it's
            • 05:30 - 06:00 basically and then defense geometry how uh what sort of uh modeling he used for the fence and the modeling is just a weird in hectares we use the weir to do that so it's it's basically uh and then it's showing you uh where he put the wheels okay now you don't don't have to put so many offensive in uh i mean no harm if you want to but all i'm saying is uh you don't have to you don't want to you can have you know just i think the offences
            • 06:00 - 06:30 around here is important because you put a fence here and a fence here and that house you can see is a real big impact on that house it's very dangerous situation in that house yeah this fence is important i will put this fence in um these guys here maybe i might put this guy in here and and then maybe some of these fences saying
            • 06:30 - 07:00 because it's near the surrounding floor so you don't have to put the whole thing in some students uh you know across with the 2d model it becomes very realistic modelling so they like to yeah i like to try all the different sorts of features okay so it's useful for some students in their work get the experience so they can do that but so you don't have to you don't have to go like that okay uh then then he
            • 07:00 - 07:30 talks about uh some of the results and uh very important that uh when you present results uh you present meaningful maps a map must say something and the best map to show is actually the water surface elevation depths is okay but depths doesn't tell you uh when you're constructing something you you want to know the elevation you want to know the floor levels you want to know where the road levels are
            • 07:30 - 08:00 so water surface elevation is good depths uh is probably not you know if you're trying to construct something depths are not important uh when you're thinking about flood risk and things like that then depths becomes important well first preference for maps is always water surface elevation and it's color coded so you can color code in a very nice way and shows
            • 08:00 - 08:30 shows the type of flooding that's occurring in the existing situation so he's got also the this one is the water depths and the velocity i think uh depth is okay we can see there's high gaps around here which is meaningful because those are the properties that are being considered and also you can see the very high flow you can see the house is actually here
            • 08:30 - 09:00 you can see where that house outline is that's where the because we put a high mining number for the house you can see that um the stagnant water through there and then high velocity through there shooting out there into the road and down the road comes through goes into their houses and also some high velocity through here probably not sure why that is i've lost it through there the waters must be that's
            • 09:00 - 09:30 probably because of the rainfall i think i think all this stuff here all these pools of water that you see here though because of the rainfall not exactly sure why this is happening i have to go into that and then what he says is a profile line through there through the houses and this is nice because it has a profile line and profile line you can see the ground level here you got the water level here and then these are the boundaries
            • 09:30 - 10:00 where the fences are you know so you can see this is number 12 number so you can see uh very clear uh across the lot you can see what the water level is and because you know where the fences are it's all labeled and so what what you can do is you can actually get the uh get this line and get this straight line and put it into excel and then in excel you can produce
            • 10:00 - 10:30 all these vertical lines and all the other stuff okay so you can export customize the results into excel so that's quite good very meaningful because you can see uh zoom in here and all the houses are there and you can see what the water surface profile looks like across across each particular property so you can see what the depths are the land is of course not flat so it's a sloping sort of
            • 10:30 - 11:00 so it's put a line through the middle of the properties sometimes for development purposes if this is your boundary you get the annotator say for example uh say for example this is your boundary then you are supposed to have a five meter
            • 11:00 - 11:30 uh space between the road and the front of the house so what you can do is five meters from the boundary you can have a profile line and that will tell you what the sort of recommended floor level should be you see five meters inside and you can produce a graph like that so if you have a plan view like this section view like this very meaningful you can see you can put information with that
            • 11:30 - 12:00 so this is what i mean don't just simply put all sorts of maps in this velocity is good because it shows you how dangerous this house is and it shows you the type of velocities faced by these types of houses that's because of the creek i think in the creek so that's good uh this one is useful because uh he has the surface level
            • 12:00 - 12:30 so that's good so we got the profile and then we have a discussion talking about uh what the flood levels are in each house and the depths of flooding so from the results he um just just explains what the situation is we did have each house uh what the risk for each house so on so forth but yeah and uh based on that uh style you know
            • 12:30 - 13:00 we have uh start talking about the mitigation option so we can talk about how the uh mitigation option was modeled modeled using uh using drains uh so the pipe is in grains so the drains model tells you in uts online canvas it shows you how to do that modeling
            • 13:00 - 13:30 here i think this one here so that part here is the brain's modeling
            • 13:30 - 14:00 for um this one by the way you see my screen okay any problems with the screen yeah just got a message uh
            • 14:00 - 14:30 yes um somebody's asking a question about this brains model using ill-sexy [Music] i think uh do you have a catchment in this model i think we don't have a catchment because um [Music] we don't have to use those x
            • 14:30 - 15:00 because we don't have a catchment just just have a look at my drawings here see i also have the demo version so
            • 15:00 - 15:30 i think you can't add the tail sex model i don't think just put some numbers in see what happens
            • 15:30 - 16:00 is depression storage and i just put some dummy i don't think this is going to be going to crash change so all this is open
            • 16:00 - 16:30 um but any case uh i don't think that's necessary because i i don't think we have a catchment uh we just have a feet and and we have a no downstream i think we have a no downstream rainfall dollar goes straight into hms
            • 16:30 - 17:00 ah heck aggress you don't put the rainfall data in dragons we just have a model like that for the pipe um because we got the flow the flow is given to us so we put the flow here and we see how much the pipe takes and then we have an online route
            • 17:00 - 17:30 and oh when i moved i said lower land route this one so it's just something like that [Music] oops
            • 17:30 - 18:00 like that and so we put the flow here and the flow is looks like this hey so let's see that's a model a that's a model [Music] uh the video shows you how to put all the solid stuff what the levels and this is the flow that we put into
            • 18:00 - 18:30 the pit we don't have a catchment seat there's no catchment there and then we we run the model and we see that the pipe will carry about one qmack and the remainder just goes over the old airflow we take this flow and we put that into acres so i think [Music] so that um ill sex i think that you we
            • 18:30 - 19:00 are using insects because we want uh we have unsteady flow here okay so we just specify insects but we don't use any rainfall we don't because we don't have a catchment we don't have any rainfall okay we can specify the rainfall we just specified like the previous assignment project rainfall data not this one is it this one or
            • 19:00 - 19:30 project anyway it doesn't matter what sort of rainfall data you can put and so we are we will be this one southeast coast zone one storm i think it doesn't matter just put
            • 19:30 - 20:00 something in all right so you have to get this for the bureau just say something okay um that should be okay one stop is enough because we don't have a catchment um
            • 20:00 - 20:30 [Music] i think this this guy will run i i don't see a problem so anybody who can the person has asked me the question i think the answer is we don't have a catchment so you can just put some dummy stuff in for the rainfall and that rainfall that we specify actually goes into accuracy it's rainfall on the grid uh rainfall on the grid is
            • 20:30 - 21:00 rainfall in the grid you can see here this one here part five rainfall okay so that one there yeah so i think uh just have a look at this one here have a look at that video there i think uh yeah if you have problems with that um just remember any sort of hydrology model and rainfall
            • 21:00 - 21:30 data they're all dummies so we don't have to worry so much about them they won't be used in a calculation because there's no catchment no catchment no rain no catchment no rain no hydrology okay so we don't have to worry so much all we have to do is take that flow yes take that flow and put it into the pit i think it's inside of it you know remember that option i told you uh
            • 21:30 - 22:00 this picture let me try and get that cursor let me get my cursor this one here base flow option so we put the uh this surface i think we want to put uh inflow head graph not base flow but into like that
            • 22:00 - 22:30 and uh so this one we put uh every five minutes however specified in five minutes interval i have duration so the duration for the hypograph you can see is consideration there uh about 200 something minutes 200 and i don't know what it is 200 minutes so we put that into grains so this is 200
            • 22:30 - 23:00 and the interval we have to go back to the assignment to see what the interval is and put all those values in okay and you can put it inside the pit i think i think it's inside the pit you follow the video anyway and we can do that say okay so that's okay so it's not baseball but input inflow hypograph you can put the flow okay uh
            • 23:00 - 23:30 now rain on the grid uh it's not compulsory you don't have to do it you you like if you're interested you can do it so really i think for part two for part two what we do is uh we do this part you can go through that path and then you can probably think about well you gotta do houses
            • 23:30 - 24:00 you gotta put the road in so this one and the houses rain on the grid uh not compulsory i think and fences if you want you can put maybe one or two fences you know the ones i showed you but rain on the grid it's easy enough to put uh it's no problem i don't think it's a big deal just have to but not compulsory for this time
            • 24:00 - 24:30 not compulsory because um yeah because some students uh you know it's for their work and all that yeah they want to learn access so they want to try okay so anyway um so i was telling you about so this is the input data and then it shows you how the model is done and that straight models output so that is the hydraulic grade line going through there and this is the
            • 24:30 - 25:00 yeah the hydraulic rate line but we're interested in the flow this is the flow going down the old air flow path he used to be 20 now it's come down to 19 19.1 and that's the flow going down the overland flow route so this is the flow going in into the pipe and what's going down the olam flow is is this one so we take that one and we take this and uh we put into
            • 25:00 - 25:30 address so so it's all nicely explained you know it's not just uh just a bunch of pictures and then no explanation this one is the opposite it has good diagrams everything's explained so people can follow what what's been done okay so that's the way it should be it should be and then you've got a discussion saying that basically that that pipe only carries point nine of the q back so most of the flow actually
            • 25:30 - 26:00 is uh whether all land flow used to be 20 now it's 19.1 which is not not a terribly great big drop so once people see those results they know that you know this pipe is not going to change the flood levels very much okay so that's that's the way you should do it all properly explained everything is uh you know the diagrams are well chosen you choose choose diagrams that are meaningful
            • 26:00 - 26:30 um so you tell you where the pipe rule is some important information where the pipe starts and where it finishes this changes what the model looks like what's the input data the model configuration and then the output the output is hydraulic grade line looks nice all the data is there and this is the hydraulic rate i think this one not so necessary but anyway you just put that in that's okay uh the unnecessary one is this one which
            • 26:30 - 27:00 is the flow going down the old airflow roof you take this and put inside a grass so once you do that so this is the data going in this one and this one is the same one that's the data going in and and then he's got the outputs again [Music] take diagrams this is the water so this is depth this is elevation depth velocity and you see the same same route this one we saw before
            • 27:00 - 27:30 so we got two diagrams now this one is for the existing and this one is for the proposed and proposed situation and then you can see it summarizes the summarizes the data here at the ground level water surface elevation and yeah depth depth properties and this is uh these are for the different properties and so the impact so the difference between
            • 27:30 - 28:00 the two scenarios people like to see what that is and the difference you can see very little okay so then he's got uh possible alternative solutions i think not necessary this is something extra you put in and yeah this is about minimum floor levels we need this one because uh if you want to build a house you need to know this information okay what the ground level is what water substance level elevation is and then the free
            • 28:00 - 28:30 board 300 millimeters free board and then that's the recommended floor level okay it's got a diagram here to explain uh ground level is here what level is here we've got the three millimeter 300 millimeters free board and then that's your recommended floor level so it's all very nice uh if you if you don't understand these terms you look at the diagram uh makes sense okay that's what we want and then finally just finish off recommendations okay and no sort of no thoughts very concise report gives
            • 28:30 - 29:00 you the information that you require it doesn't talk about all sorts of rubbish it doesn't talk nonsense it's just to the point gives you information nicely arranged good diagrams yeah so that's the way the report should be okay reports must be like that because uh once you get the results only you understand the results okay if somebody else comes and looks at it they don't understand it's up to you to tell them this result means this
            • 29:00 - 29:30 uh so on so forth and it's got to be arranged properly so that people you know they don't have to read the report you know because you get a developer what he wants to do is uh if you're a developer you say uh what's this report about you read this and then you flick through all of this you say is okay okay uh you say so that's the existing okay yeah that's okay that's the existing and
            • 29:30 - 30:00 okay and then he says oh well that's what's going to happen you know that's what's going to happen with the proposal and difference not very much not very much so it's wasting your money building that type and then coming here very important information this one if you're building you want to know that this this column here you want to know this one here okay and if you're not so very technical if you look at this diagram you'll understand what this figure means okay
            • 30:00 - 30:30 so you can see how uh in that sense the report is uh informative uh well well organized and uh it's uh yeah it's it's put in a way so that people people can understand written in a way so that people can understand okay so that's what you must do i think uh that's um that's that's what we uh mean by a good report okay so is any uh you want to discuss those things you
            • 30:30 - 31:00 want to ask me anything you don't have to follow exactly the same as this obviously but you know it gives you ideas you know ideas of what uh what good information can be done also they have uh you know finish off the executive summary just shows you what the purpose was uh say i say what the existing situation is and uh see
            • 31:00 - 31:30 see i therefore conclude that the uh proposed is ineffective i think given the cost of the systems i mean that's common sense i think that's common sense but uh something additional i would put in the executive summary is this one this table here this table here i will take that table and i'll put it down here put it down here because that's what
            • 31:30 - 32:00 people want to know right that's what we want but we're not so worried about the flood level but we want to find out about the floor level because that's where you want to construct the houses again that's important information all right so that's the way it should be done i think uh so do your model but then leave some time to to write a good report okay to write a good report you have to think you have to look at your results you to
            • 32:00 - 32:30 start to think and then you have to start to produce a diagram most of the diagrams you can get from hackres maybe some of these things you have to come and face to get the diagrams some of these things like these things all come from backgrounds i think all of that comes from macras but this one you have to take the hackrest and put it into excel because you've got to put the vertical lines hackers will give you this red line and the blue line
            • 32:30 - 33:00 so you have to take that and then you have to put these vertical lines and then you have to label it get your x axis y axis x-axis and y-axis correct for the legend and all that sort of stuff uh yeah so that one is better to do in across excel so export uh you draw your profile line then you can cut and paste the data from the profile
            • 33:00 - 33:30 and then you can put put the yeah you got a question yes professor just can you show us can how can we export this data to do the profile yes so what you do is
            • 33:30 - 34:00 okay um yeah just get the google see like i don't know like a result
            • 34:00 - 34:30 okay so what you do is uh you see this profile line down here you click on that and then i think it's added a line click on that click on the profile line and click on the plus and just go there double click save save the thing [Music] you don't have to be a straight line but
            • 34:30 - 35:00 you can have you can click multiple points and once you've got the uh this one here um just go to i think uh right mouse clicking yes plot the plot profile water surface level so that's the the brown is the ground and the
            • 35:00 - 35:30 blue is the water so come to tables and then what you do is you copy this see that's the x distance that's the um one level that's your ground level so you copy this and there's a lot of data so you just ctrl c to copy
            • 35:30 - 36:00 and ctrl c what you do is open up excel and you do control v all the data goes into excel okay and once it's like that this is your [Music] distance this is your
            • 36:00 - 36:30 wse and this is your ground level so once you've got that you can start plotting here just plot the plot that pull all this out okay i think from here you should be able to do it you can just plot the plot everything up yes that's good thank you and this line here you know i drew it straight doesn't have to be straight because you can add a profile line and you can have
            • 36:30 - 37:00 something like that okay so no problem and so so it doesn't have to be straight uh it can be any sort of profile you like okay so that's fine so that's the one so that's a good good example now i show you a bad example don't want to embarrass anybody but i just quickly show you what a bad example is so don't produce a report like that
            • 37:00 - 37:30 now where's my bad example must be here somewhere bad example okay okay um so as i said uh we don't want to embarrass anybody but uh just want to quickly show you what
            • 37:30 - 38:00 what you mean so bad example it just starts off with some introduction you just copy the assignment and just say some some some stuff on the computer model and then you've got this input data yeah it's just uh then you start to get the pictures so this is a summary of input data this is not bad it summarizes the input
            • 38:00 - 38:30 data in table form so that's quite good he's got all the information i think this sort of data is better to put inside the appendix i don't think you should put inside the main report so you can have a appendix where you have input data everything in the table so that's good uh but then here comes the problem you see it's just uh just a lot of pictures this one that map is okay
            • 38:30 - 39:00 but a lot of pictures uh but uh very little explanation so if you if you browse through this uh you wonder what's happening you know what uh what did this guy try to do it's got a lot of things what is this one uh clock comfort current water surface elevation okay this one is okay but uh what is this what is this happening inside here it's uh
            • 39:00 - 39:30 it's all it's just too many figures and two little explanation okay so it's uh you know he's obviously tried to produce a report but not not very successful let me show you another one
            • 39:30 - 40:00 so the introduction is really irrelevant stuff and this is just completely irrelevant you know i just i don't know what that's going to do with why what do you want to explain land use and infiltration what is ground what do you want to do all that this one i don't know what this thing is
            • 40:00 - 40:30 and um yeah it's all you know trying to explain free board i mean anyway um so it's got some objectives okay uh but then you can see the problem you see just uh there's pictures pictures pictures we got pictures see this one it just it's just pictures and i don't know what it's all this
            • 40:30 - 41:00 about you know so many pictures you can see the outline of the house i was telling you about that's good and how fast i've lost is there but let's pictures pictures oh finish so that's it you got uh you have a little bit of a start okay a little bit of the stats you know introduction interaction you've got some irrelevant irrelevant completely irrelevant stuff i don't know what all this is about
            • 41:00 - 41:30 what is that about this one is okay objectives at least that's what you're trying to do and then we got the pictures coming you know just pictures scriptures which is it just pictures i don't know what is this what is it supposed to tell you anyway what is this stephanie i don't know what uh what's up what's he used to telling me
            • 41:30 - 42:00 this is velocity versus what versus time that's velocity i don't know where this where this point is where is this point what are we looking at i don't know where i don't know what this i don't know where the location of this point is and it's it's i don't know what's so important about that location so you see how it's terrible see you get some results first
            • 42:00 - 42:30 and this looks like input data that's the fence how to put the fence in and that's a pipe uh we got pipe so how come it's very confusing you've got some results i don't know what the results is about but anyway then you got input data and then you're doing some fence and you've got the pipe coming in this is a proposal and we got something that's with the fight flow and then
            • 42:30 - 43:00 finish that's it finish you can see how bad you know how that's uh so nobody has any chance of understanding that okay it's also plenty of irrelevant stuff things all mixed up nobody knows what the diagrams are for i can see existing i can see proposed but i don't know what what the diagram is it's all terrible just terrible just
            • 43:00 - 43:30 terrible so think think uh when you write the report so don't spend you know 10 days modeling and then half a day putting putting a result uh putting a report you should set up your model for five days then you should start writing your report and then you should go back to modeling and get the type of diagrams you want out and then carefully select and put them into the put them into the report okay all right
            • 43:30 - 44:00 so i showed you a good good example and then once i suppose one is second one i showed you i think is i think it's like below average and the third one i showed you is really terrible it's really terrible i mean for somebody to if you produce that sort of report at work you'll be trouble you'll be in trouble with your password
            • 44:00 - 44:30 because uh there's no very difficult to understand what's happening unless you know the job unless you know the projects and you know that it never gives any that third report never gives any uh recommendation there's no uh recommended flow level there's no sort of diagram that shows you what the you know what the like a profile diagram that shows you what the water surface elevation is kind of thing it's got
            • 44:30 - 45:00 nothing and that's just very yeah i think uh whoever produces that report uh at work this is work uh i think we'll be in trouble okay so that's what we want you to use this opportunity to learn to write a good report okay has a good introduction the introduction says you know what is the background of the study what are we trying to do
            • 45:00 - 45:30 where is the study okay where is the study area and what is the input data what is the objectives detail objectives then we say what the input data is and what is the existing situation uh then we got this uh what we did with drains how we yeah that's okay and then what the proposed situation is and then what's the difference what's the difference
            • 45:30 - 46:00 what difference the pipe makes then we've got our recommended floor levels and yeah so it's all there very good and very logical i think at the end of the day you want to ask yourself is this logical or not okay is this logical you know if some of you you have classmates not doing this subject doing some other subjects if you give them that report can they
            • 46:00 - 46:30 sort of tell what's happening they should be able to work out oh you did this and the results look like that and the pipe doesn't make too much difference they should be able to get that okay even if they don't know very much about what modeling is or don't know very much about you know hack res or 2d modeling or landflow they don't know anything about that but they can just browse and say oh the existing is like this proposes like this and
            • 46:30 - 47:00 difference not much so why do you spend so much money building the bike and then yes that should be very obvious right people people any any sort of uh general you know just a layman or you know just minimal uh technical information if they browse through that uh they can see this this is what it says because it's very nicely logically laid out okay so that's why i wanted to spend some time with you today spend some time with you today to uh
            • 47:00 - 47:30 [Music] just to tell you you know very important to write a good report you can do modeling yeah that's okay but modeling is not enough because you must transfer that information and so you have to produce a good report good reports and that's what you do at work anyway i mean if you do this at work the report must be good because whoever paid you to do the model he's not gonna
            • 47:30 - 48:00 he's not gonna read the model or look at the model or touch the model or do anything he's only gonna read the report okay so you produce a good model it allows the report uh it's not too it's not going to be good okay all right so okay so i've done a lot of talking you want to ask me any questions uh any questions you want to ask this thing is due on sunday next uh but don't stress i mean better do a good job and then to so if you can't finish don't worry you can
            • 48:00 - 48:30 sort of finish in the in this in the weeks in the you know the week starting monday you can finish any of those days and then submit it okay we're not too fussy and then so so spend some time modeling good but then start writing the report after you write the report you say maybe i need this diagram and i gotta make it uh you know color coded so that it uh more meaningful and put some contours in and yeah it's all sort of stuff okay
            • 48:30 - 49:00 all right so you can ask me questions uh and then uh because i finished what i want to say i only wanted to show you uh what is a good and bad model i want to do that and then this recording i tell you this recording i will put it here okay uh i put it in different places uh one place i'll put it is uh the recording output uh i'll put it
            • 49:00 - 49:30 here and i'll put it here okay so that you can see the recording and i also put it here maybe this uh maybe this uh this one here and um i just put put it here okay i just uh put it here advice on modeling or something uh advice on report uh yeah put it i'll put it here okay
            • 49:30 - 50:00 zoom to toe so i'll have another zoom tutor uh 20 second uh this was our computer class yeah so zoom to true so i'll put it here um
            • 50:00 - 50:30 so today is uh 24 20 22nd 2022 of it that must be two and then just take out that
            • 50:30 - 51:00 okay so when the video is available i'll put it you come here and then you'll see it down here
            • 51:00 - 51:30 okay beautiful so you come here and you scroll down this this what date was that that was 11 then
            • 51:30 - 52:00 it can be 11 must be nine perfect no i say 11. okay that's fine okay any questions otherwise we can wrap it up [Music] come back later you'll see this uh this
            • 52:00 - 52:30 thing here the link will be on okay so i'll just uh stop stop sharing and then i will stop the recording
