Description

Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) is a set of design principles used to discourage crime and promote security. The concept is simple: Buildings and properties can be designed to prevent damage from the force of the elements and natural disasters; they should also be designed to prevent crime.

When CPTED is put into practice, the resulting environment, including the building and its surroundings, will discourage or impede criminal behavior, and at the same time encourage honest citizens to keep a watchful eye.

Section 1: Provide a brief history on how the structure/environment is used.

Section 2: What CPTED principles were violated?

  • Define and explain the importance of the features of the structure/environment.

Section 3: What CPTED principles were implemented?

  • Define and explain the importance of the features of the structure/environment.

Section 4: What CPTED concepts would you add to the design?

  • Define and explain the importance of the features of the structure/environment.

Section 5: How would you rate the overall design on a scale of 4 to 1? 4-Excellent; 3-Good; 2-Fair; 1-Poor

  • Explain your reasoning for the rate.

Section 6: Reference List

  • At least 8 References (4 must be scholarly peer-reviewed articles)

Use Chapter 1 of your text and other outside resources to research the CPTED for your structure/environment. Provide the required information listed above in your research.

Your research paper should be at least 9 pages (2400 words), double-spaced, have at least 4 APA references, and typed in an easy-to-read font in MS Word (other word processors are fine to use but save it in a MS Word format). Your cover page should contain the following: Title, Team's name, University's name, Course name, Course number, Professor's name, and Date. Please provide PPT and research paper as well on time.

User generated content is uploaded by users for the purposes of learning and should be used following Studypool's honor code & terms of service.

Introduction
❖CPTED is one of the fast growing strategies.
❖Institution such as learning, health, and businesses have adopted this model
since it is cost effective and leads to maximum security.

❖CPTED entails the construction of structures which improve security. For
instance using electric fences, installing CCTVs and alarms.

❖The way the building structures are constructed has the potential to
influence access by criminals.

CPTED Principles
❖Target hardening
❖Natural surveillance
❖Territorial reinforcement
❖Maintenance
All these principle work together to enhance the security levels

How CPTED is used in the Campus
❖It is employed as a security tool.
❖The institution’s structures are made in such a way that security is facilitated.
❖The organization is installed with cameras, the pavements are well-lit to scare
criminals, the buildings are well spaced to provide more angles of vicinity,
and the area is cleared to remove bushes and trees that can create dark
sports.

❖The CPTED is based on the fear of the people to commit crimes in the
open.

Violated Principle of CPTED
• In Violating any of the CPTED principles, one is likely to face enormous
challenges since room for crimes is created.

• Natural control is the mot violated principle.
• If this principle is applied, the criminals will not have the sense of control
since they will be easily noticed.

• The maze control feature of this principle leads to easy identification of
criminals.

CPTED Principles Implemented
• Natural surveillance is perfectly implemented.
• The place is properly lit making everything open. This gives the students who
might think of committing crimes a hard time.

• territorial reinforcement is also implemented effectively. The entrance points
make it easy to distinguish between students and visitors/intruders.

• Combining territorial reinforcement and natural surveillance leads to
increased security

Significance of the features
• Natural surveillance features have several merits that include improved
lighting, clearing of pavements and the entire environment, and installation
of CCTVs which enhance monitoring efficiency.

• The badging systems implemented make is easy to identify guests, students,
and workers. Thus, trucking those that are likely to commit crimes.

• The management of all entrances leads to advanced securities. There will be
no movement of weapons, drugs, among others into the campus.

CPTED Concepts to add to the design
• Target hardening
It is crucial to increase the security measures on the facilities. For instance,
using doors with strong metals and locks which are hard to break.

• Fear
The fear factor is an important concept and must be increased by
introducing things such as alarms to the organization.

Rating of the Campus’ Design
• In a scale of four to one, I will give it three (good).
• The institution has been able to abide by most principles of the CPTED.
• I will not give it four since it does not fully make the application of the
desired principles.

• Being in a position to fulfill most of the elements of the other three
principles (maintenance, territorial , and natural surveillance) gives it a fair
rating of three.

Conclusion
• This physical security makes Northwestern Polytechnical University the best
institution to be.

• Crimes such as drug trafficking, burglary, and attacks on other students are
minimized.

• With time and proper maintenance, the institution will perfect its security
control measures.
