Astoria Quarter Acre Farm Introduction Astoria Quarter Acre Farm 11-15, 19-21 Flint Street Comprehensive Farm Review March 22, 2019 Contact: Barbara Knecht UFI Farm Site Developer barbara@strategiesforcities 917 842 2722 The Urban Farming Institute of Boston is preparing to redevelop this long abandoned lot located two blocks from our recently completed and restored flagship headquarters at the Fowler Clark Epstein Farm on Norfolk St. in Mattapan. This packet is submitted to the BPDA for Comprehensive Farm Review (CFR) in accordance with Article 89 of the city of Boston Zoning code. The Urban Farming Institute, with a host of volunteers and neighborhood residents, built boxes for a temporary “farm” on the site in the spring of 2017. In the fall of 2018, the site was chosen by Youth Build Boston for its 10 year Anniversary Day of Service. Supervised by Starlite construction and Youth Build, volunteers built a 10’ x 10’ shed that had been previously designed by YBB’s Designery program. This structure is under the 120 SF requirement for a building permit. Also in the fall of 2018, the YBB Designery program undertook a sign design project to the Article 89 specifications and produced a prototype. The sign meets the requirements of 89-4 and includes the option for some temporary information similar to the sign at the Woolson Street garden two blocks away. All of these projects are illustrated in the attached packet. We are extremely pleased to have received CPA funds to build the Astoria farm this spring. It is conceived as a simple farm that will serve as a farming “annex” to the FCE Farm – a place for production, but also for learning and experimentation with various farming methods. We hope it will be an excellent addition to the City of Boston’s urban agriculture initiative.

    Equipments used in Surveying Anirudh Kumar Introduction: Surveying is a technique by which the position, distance and angle between two points can get determined. The determination of position, measurement of distance and angle takes place by different suitable equipments. The person who involved in surveying work is called surveyor. A surveyor must have accuracy in taking measurement and calculation work. They should also have knowledge and skill to operate different types of equipments in field condition. Different types of surveying equipments are: MEASURING CHAIN: A chain is made up of numbers of links which is combined together. Chain is made up of either iron or steel. Steel chains have accuracy and durability but it is more expensive. There are different types of chains are:- 1. Metric chain 2. Engineer’s chain 3. Günter’s chain or Surveyor’s chain 4. Band chain 5. Revenue chain 1. Metric chain: - It is made up of galvanized iron or steel material having lengths 20 meter and 30 meter. It have 100 to 150 links because each link of metric chain having length 20 cm. In this chain tags and brass ring also get attached. A tag is fixed at every five meter length and small brass ring attached at every one meter length except where tag is fixed. The distance measured with metric chain is recorded in feet. 2. Engineer’s Chain: - The engineer’s chain is made up of galvanized iron or steel material. It has total length of 100 feet where 100 links attached together. Each link of this chain having length one foot.

  • Gunter's Chain
    THE HISTORY OF TIREE IN 100 OBJECTS - no. 40 GUNTER'S CHAIN This rusty chain, found in Heylipol, does not look much. But in its day, this was a revolutionary piece of equipment that transformed the appearance of the island. When the Campbells took control of Tiree in 1679, they found a medieval landscape. Farm boundaries snaked across the island from rock to rock, loch to loch. Fields were a convenient size for the horses and ploughs of their day. Villages grew up next to the most fertile land and near a water supply. In other words, the farms had evolved around the landscape. And these irregular areas of land were measured by how productive they were, using an ancient measure only used on Tiree, Coll and Orkney: the mail-land. Four mail-lands gave a tenant grazing for twelve cows, twelve horses or sixty sheep. The 1776 Census of Tiree had the approving entry for Middleton: "John McLean is a good tenant for four maile land; he has five cows and five horses". Around 1760, the fifth Duke of Argyll became determined to drag Tiree into the modern age, at a time of agricultural revolution known as 'Improvement'. He turned to two members of a new profession: the surveyors James Turnbull and George Langlands. They used a Gunter's chain like this one with a surveyor's compass to accurately measure distances and areas for the first time. Placing a ranging rod at the corner of a field, the chainman lined his chain up, pulled it taut, pinned the end link into the ground and pulled it round to start again.

For estimating purposes it is often useful to note the following: CHAINS The inside length (“grip” or pitch) of one link is 4 wire diameters. The outside length of one link is 6 wire-diameters. The outside width of one link is 3.56 wire-diameters. The gauge-test length is the outside length over 6 links and equals 26 wire-diameters. The weight of one link is about 3-1/3 times its wire diameter cubed.

    Chapter 1 Measurement 1.1 What is Physics? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxXf7AJZ73A Realms of Physics • Physics provides a unified description of basic principles that govern physical reality. • Fundamental science: motion, force, matter, energy, space, time, … • Convenient to divide physics into a number of related realms. – Here we consider six distinct realms: 1.2 Measuring things • We measure each quantity by its own ―unit‖ or by comparison with a standard. • A unit is a measure of a quantity that scientists around the world can refer to. • This has to be both accessible and invariable. Example: 1 meter (m) is a unit of length. Any other length can be expressed in terms of 1 meter. A variable length, such as the length of a person’s nose is not appropriate. 1.3 International System of Units (SI) • The SI system, or the International System of Units, is also called the metric system. • Three basic quantities are length, time, and mass. • Many units are derived from this set, as in speed, which is distance divided by time. 1.3 International System of Units • Seven fundamental physical quantities & units: – Length: the meter (m) – Time: the second (s) – Mass: the kilogram (kg) – Electric current: the ampere (A) – Temperature: the kelvin (K) – Amount of a substance: the mole (mol) – Luminous intensity: the candela (cd) • Supplementary units describe angles: – Plane angle: the radian – Solid angle: the steradian 1.3 International System of Units Scientific notation expresses results with powers of 10. Example: 3 560 000 000 m = 3.56 x 109m. Sometimes special names are used to describe very large or very small quantities (as shown in Table 1-2).
