PARKING
• Parking provisions were more or less according to the standard
provisions
• There was 1 basement for parking and additional store room space
provision for extra storage.
• Then surface provision was also provided.
• An extra parking lot was provided to residents in case of guests and
extra car parking requirements.
• The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs' model by-laws allow 2 ECS
(Equivalent Car Space) per 100 sq meter of floor area in residential
premises. This can be translated to 1 space per 3BHK and 2 per 4BHK.
DESIGN ACHIEVEMENTS
• Accomplished impeccable design to meet the needs of
the residents in a luxurious manner.
• Privatization of spaces in order to give residents a sense
of personal space.
• Inclusive design in terms of adequate spaces of gathering
and with respect to recreational angle.
• Inclusive design in terms of proper provisions for
wheelchair users and specially abled people like adequate
quantities of ramps, lifts etc.
BARRIER FREE DESIGN
• Car parking being available for specially abled.
• Minimum/ no use of steps for the porch level. It is
achieved with minor changes in artificial topography
• Campus is equipped with well signages and pictorial
representations.
• Showing some level difference between road and porch
levels for the sake of inclusitivity.
• Adequate no of parking space for residents space

IF IT IS A PROBLEM,WHAT IS THE SOLUTION:
1. Damage can be prevented by isolating structures from shrinking and swelling by replacing
soils with non-expansive fill, installing waterproof membranes, and placing structures on
piers or pilings.
2.Clear space can be provided under slabs on -grade .

3. Compaction, prewetting, heat and chemical treatment of the soil are various methods of
reducing potential volume change. Each has specific advantages and disadvantages depending
STEREOGRAPHIC SUN-PATH on site conditions.
4. Surface runoff must be prevented from infiltrating the perimeter of structures. Vertical
moisture barriers.
5. Plant root activity causes desiccation of the soil, particularly during dry seasons of the year.
Construction should be avoided within the root zone of trees.
That’s why no trees where at the periphery of the structures.

MAIN TECH:BRICK AND
THE TECHNOLOGIES USED MORTAR INFERENCES
➢ PREFAB TECHNOLOGIES FOR BUILDING
MATERIALS
➢ One way to speed up the creation of homes is by supplementing the
traditional ‘brick and mortar’ construction model with modern
techniques such as the use of prefabricated structures and
materials. In many regions across the globe, prefab technologies
have been used to construct homes speedily and cost-effectively.
➢ Innovative construction techniques increase the speed of production
and compress delivery timeframes. Aluminium form work,
prefabricated modules and dry walls are some techniques favoured
by realty developers in India.
➢ Faster construction is a boon for builders because the longer the
construction timelines, the higher their cost of borrowing funds.
Time being money for developers, prefab modular structures and
modern construction techniques lead to quicker unit sales and
faster revenue generation.
➢ In such cases, factory-made components are used to construct
buildings.
➢ Prefab materials include steel frames for structures, panels made
of wood, cement, gypsum and other materials for floors, walls and
ceilings, as well as factory-made doors, windows and ventilators. If
the project is large, various modules of the structure are made off-
site in factories and finally assembled onsite.
Prefabrication Techniques
Prefab consists of the following types:
• Large Panel Prefabrication
• Frame System Prefabrication
• Lift-slab Prefabrication
• Beam-slab joints Prefabrication
Brick Masonry Definition
Brick masonry is a highly durable form of
construction. It is built by placing bricks in
mortar in a systematic manner to
construct solid mass that withstand
exerted loads. There are several types of
bricks and number of mortars which can
be used to construct brick masonry. The
bond in brick masonry, which adheres
bricks together, is produced by filling
joints between bricks with suitable
mortar. Special cautions shall be
practiced while mortar is mixed and
placed since it greatly affect the
performance and durability of masonry
structure.
BASED ON ITS
APPLICATION MORTAR
TYPES
➢ Bricklaying or stone-laying mortar –
this kind of mortar is typically used to
bond together bricks or stones.
➢ Finishing mortar – this kind of mortar
is mainly used for pointing and
plastering works. Lime and cement
are normally used as binding agents
for this type of mortar.
➢ Thinset – a special type of mortar
which is used as an adhesive to
Dimensional inferences:
• A cantilever projection at any level (in setbacks) of a width of
0.75 metre was found .
• The basement shall be allowed in setback area after leaving
a minimum setback of 6.0 mtrs AND HERE IT WAS ALSO 6MT.
• Stilt area of non-habitable height 2.40 metres from bottom of
beam proposed to be used for parking, landscaping etc.
• Balconies of big widths up to 2m shall be included in and was
projected in open setbacks provided 6 mtrs.
• Clear space is available for fire tender movement. Rockery,
well and well structures, water pool, swimming pool,
uncovered platform around tree, tank, fountain, bench,
chabutra with open top and unenclosed by side walls,
compound wall, gate, slide, swing, overhead tanks on top of
buildings, open shafts, culverts on drains.
• Additional 7.3% of the plot area as ground coverage was
allowed for dedicated multi level parking.
• Canopy size is 2.2m x 4.5m shall not be counted in ground
coverage.
• Loft up to maximum height of 1.5 metres
• Cupboards upto a depth of 0.60 mtr.And 1.80 mtrs.In length.
NEGATIVE INFERENCES:
DISADVANTAGES OF CLUSTER DEVELOPMENT MAY INCLUDE:
• METHODS TO PROTECT AND MAINTAIN THE OPEN SPACE MUST BE CAREFULLY
DEVELOPED, IMPLEMENTED, AND MONITORED.
• ALUMINUM FORM WORK OR PREFAB TECHNIQUES NEED PRECISION ENGINEERING
BECAUSE EVERY ASPECT OF THE BUILDING IS DESIGNED BEFORE THE CASTING.
THEREAFTER, THE PROCESS IS IRREVERSIBLE. THERE IS THEREFORE NO ROOM FOR
MODIFICATIONS OR ERRORS OF ANY KIND. IN OTHER WORDS, ONCE THE STRUCTURE IS
PUT UP, THERE IS NO FLEXIBILITY. MOVING EVEN A SINGLE ELECTRICAL POINT IN THE
WALL CAN POSE AN IMMENSE CHALLENGE DUE TO THE RCC STRUCTURE.
• FASTER CONSTRUCTION MAY COMPOUND THE FINANCIAL WOES OF CUSTOMERS, WHO
MAY BE FORCED TO MAKE A BULK OF THE PAYMENTS AT A FASTER PACE WITH SHORTER
INTERVALS.
• NO BANKING AND GRADING OF ROADS IS DONE TO AVOID ACCIDENTS BY TURNING CARS

• THE SOIL IS EXPANSIVE IN NATURE,SO ONLY WAS FILLED FOR PARK NOT FOR

• THE TREES ATTRACT A LOT OF PEST AND BUGS.
• THE COMPLEX DOESN’T HAVE BICYCLING PATH.
• FOOTPATH WIDTH IS UNEVEN ON BUILDING CORNERS.
• THERE IS NO RAMP TO GROUND FLOOR RAISED BY PLINTH, ONE CAN ONLY GO BY LIFT ,
THAT THEY NEED TO TAKE FROM BASEMENT.
• SMALL CORRIDORS.
• NO OPENING IN STAIRS CAN CAUSE PROBLEM IF FIRE ARISE.
• ONLY 2 GATES FOR ENTRY AND EXIT FOR SUCH A BIG PROJECT.

• ITS FLATS HAVE MOSTLY BALCONIES PLANNED IN MULTIPLE DIRECTIONS.

➢ Additionally, their dead load on the structure is minimal compared to
traditional brick walls. Terrace and wall blocks, wall panels, steel

technique.
