Introduction
The A Team Utopia County Jail has been built and is almost ready for full operation, but there are a few details that remain and then there will be a press release to report the progress of the facility. Our task force is responsible for developing a conceptual and physical model of the facility. In this paper, we will discuss issues surrounding both models of the facility. For example, the conceptual model will describe the facilities features, where the facility will be located, what the facility will look like, levels of security in the facility, such as, low, minimum, medium and maximum security, how the design of the facility supports the prison’s functions and goals and the advantages and disadvantages of the prison’s design. The physical model of the facility will describe the physical design and how it is represented by a two-dimensional computer generated drawing or image.
Purpose
The purpose of the way the A Team Utopia County jail is designed is to keep overcrowding to a minimal. The goals of our facility are to maintain a chaos free jail while seeing that the inmates are punished and treated fairly. The A Team Utopia County Jail will contain four levels of security. These levels will be ranging from low, minimum, medium, and maximum. The levels are designed to keep behavioral issues to a minimum. While keeping the inmates separate and classifying them in this manner the inmates and staff will remain safe. The other purpose of our facility is keep overcrowding to a minimal. The lower level of security is for inmates that are usually first offenders and awarded with good behavior. The time that is served is usually short and inmates are transferred to other facilities. In the minimum security section is the section where inmates have been awarded
