Abstract

Culs-de-sac in Shah Alam has begun to take centre stage, especially in the high-end neighbourhood developments. Typically, these neighbourhoods can be easily identified. However, in contrast to developed nations, the local municipality has yet to begin identifying neighbourhood typologies. This paper endeavours to elucidate sampling or identification process procedures of the cul-de-sac neighbourhood. The cul-de-sac was identified by observing intersection connectivity, link-node ratios, as well as street segment analysis; assimilation of techniques used in recent western methodologies. Scaled macro to micro map analysis aligned sequentially in sieves, allows for the identification of specific cul-de-sac syntax; one, in particular, is the cul-de-sac courtyards.
