2.1 Project Background
Sports and fitness facility not only creates a healthy community but also improves academic
productivity of students, teachers and staffs. Whereas only less than 5% of BUET community
are currently involved in sports and fitness activity due to lack of a proper outdoor and indoor
sports environment, swimming pool space etc.
The proposed project includes building a multipurpose sports complex, swimming pool,
development of the galleries, improvement of drainage system and add parking facilities for
induced traffics. This report was prepared using the approach of estimating the demand
accurately to determine the demands and future scopes.
A careful assessment of the existing demand for improved fitness facilities was made to study
the possible users. The report took into consideration the number of people and range of sports,
which are keen in using the facilities for assessing the demand for indoor sports.
After the estimation of the demand for the facilities, architectural plan and the appropriate
designs are to be developed. Based on the proposed concept and design, the report has
estimated the likely capital costs for the project. The concept, design and capital cost estimates
provide the basis for the preparation of detailed management and marketing strategies to run
the project successfully. A financial model prepared based on the estimated revenue and
expenditure will provide the information on the long-term feasibility of the proposed project.

2.4 Organizational Philosophy

The organizational philosophy encourages initiative, leadership and responsibility among the
members. The project will provide an “environment designed to teach both the physical skills
of the sport as well as emphasizing the teamwork, sportsmanship, discipline, sacrifice and
leadership that are integral parts of participating in the sport and to also teach how these skills
translate into lasting and valuable life skills beyond the sport itself”
The activities of the outcome are entirely athletic and recreational in nature. The project
includes creating a club that will determine and devise its own rules for membership from the
possible users, who are willing to participate in achieving the aims of the Club. However, the
Club will not make any discrimination based on gender, race, or disability.

The fundamental purpose of this project is to function as a sporting organization, within which
“the members can actively participate in promoting self-esteem, discipline, friendship,
cooperation, contribution, and sportsmanship” In order to support the main purpose, the Club
will strive to achieve the following purposes.
The project will apply its quality values to all levels of sports and leisure programs.The club
will design and implement activities that will support the BUET communities.
The club will design all the sports programs and its other endeavors as a means of developing
the skills levels and for providing continued opportunities for contributing to community
development.
Section 3: Market/Demand Analysis:

3.1 Problem Statement:

• Ideal situation: Ideally, the construction of Modern Sports Complex and swimming pool
would be able to maximize the overall physical mental health status of the stakeholder of our
project.
• But the overall physical status of mental health of the stakeholder is not that up to the mark.
Because current facilities that BUET (Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology)
provide cannot attract the stakeholder(s) very easily.
• So, to attract the greater number of students, teacher, staff and others, the quality of the
services should be increased. A swimming pool should also be constructed with all kinds of
necessary facilities.
• This problem can be solved after construction of Modern Sports Complex at BUET field along
with a swimming pool.

3.2 Relevance of the project idea:

The objectives of the project are:
• To create a healthy community and to enhance academic excellency of the students.
• To make involved the BUET community as high percentage as possible.
• The BUET does not have any swimming pool. So, to learn swimming BUET need to construct a
swimming pool.

3.3 Project intervention:

• Project inputs-
i)construction of a modern sports complex and a swimming pool.
• Project outputs-
i) A common space for the BUET community to have many indoor games
ii) A Swimming pool with good facilities.
iii) Overall, a healthy BUET community.

3.4 Stakeholders:
Key stakeholders that are likely to be associated with the project intervention
• BUET students’ community
• Teachers' community and their families
• Staffs and their families
• DSCC
• RAJUK
• Bangladesh Swimming Federation

3.5 Demand Analysis:

(i) Current Demand Analysis:
According to the survey conducted online among BUET community, the following results are
found.
From the analysis of the survey, that an Indoor space along with a swimming pool is true demand
from the BUET community.
(ii) Future Demand Analysis:
As the number of students is increasing in each admission year, it is obvious that demand for
indoor sports facilities will increase in each year. By demand forecasting method, it was found that
about 1950 students will be getting admitted every year by 2050. So, the demand for indoor sports
facilities and swimming pool will increase year by year.

3.6 SWOT analysis:

Strength: This project will boost mental and physical health of the BUET community. The
community will have an opportunity to maintain themselves fit, that will enhance their
Efficiency.

Weakness: Initial investment is large. Need enough workforce to maintain the project in a
proper way.

Opportunities: There is an opportunity to arrange diverse levels of sports competitions in this

Multipurpose Complex.

Threats: The project may create extra traffic pressure in the nearby road. Congestion may
occur in the area if transportation management is not well maintained.

Technical And Engineering Analysis:

4.1 Location:
Our site is located in Dhaka, beside the Dhakeshwari temple and it's geological coordinates are
23.7224° N, 90.3884° E. The elevation of this area from the sea level is 15.27 m.

The following facts are considered while selecting this location

i) Only this selected area can accommodate the required space and satisfy the objectives of our
project without affecting the other activities of BUET.
ii) This area is very close and easy to reach for students from Hall and main Campus.
iii) The transportation system is very much well established
As this area is within the territory of BUET which is verified by signboard and map, we may
proceed with BUET authority as the sole owner of this site.

There are several disaster-risks we need to consider regarding our site.

They are:
i) Earthquake:
According to BNBC 2020, Dhaka falls in seismic zone 2 (z=0.20) and according to several
research studies Dhaka is earthquake prone to a Richter Scale value over 7.
ii) Flood:
According to the studies Dhaka may face a probable flood level 7.29m
iii) Climate Change Impact:
We identified two impacts- lowering of groundwater table, settlement of soil.
For groundwater table lowering we may need to manage alternative source of water supply and
we may need to
consider for settlement of soil while designing our foundation and laying our drainage pipe

4.2 Ground Engineering:

For construction of any kind of structure, the first important consideration is soil condition. The
stability of a structure depends on substructure.
The surface of our selected area id free from obstacles which will make our work easier. As Dhaka is
earthquake prone area, our soil condition must me well enough to
overcome any hazardous events with high shear strength and stability.
The elevation of our location is 15.27 m. The whole area is a plain land. So, there will be no issue with
cutting and filling. And also, there is no obstacle in this area.

5.1 Environmental and Social Impact Assessment

Introduction:
Drowning heart-breaking deaths are more often recorded in Bangladesh. There are a lot of
students fall in this category. So, it is essential for every institution to teach swimming skills to
its pupils. And that’s why a swimming pool is a great tool for its successful achievements. Also
Engineering students have to sit hours after hours before laptop/computer which is harmful for
their health. A swimming pool with modern sports complex can improve their physical fitness,
reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and reduce the risk of developing health conditions.
The proposed "DEVELOPMENT OF MODERN SPORTS COMPLEX WITH SWIMMING
POOL" project falls under the GREEN category project as per Environmental Conservation Rule
(ECR, 1997). As part of the EIA, detailed baseline surveys of areas surrounding the project site
have been carried out. Project activities during both construction and operational phases will
have been identified and impacts of these project activities on the baseline environment will have
been assessed. Based on the assessment, mitigation measures will have been proposed for
addressing adverse impacts and enhance positive impacts. Finally, an environmental
management plan (EMP) including monitoring requirements will have been developed for
implementation of mitigation measures.

BASELINE ENVIRONMENT: PHYSICOCHEMICAL

Environmental Baseline Study surveys required for characterization of an area prior the
development of a project and establish the initial environmental status. Environmental Impact
Assessment in this scenario predict, minimize, measure and, if necessary, correct and
compensate the impacts produced by any human action. This requires a high degree of
understanding of both the impact of the receiving environment and the process that produces it.
The physicochemical segment of the assessment covers the following properties of the project
area.

Geology and Soil: The planning area is covered by the Pleistocene Madhupur Clay, a yellowish
brown to the highly oxidized reddish brown silty clay; and by Holocene sediments to the south,
west and east made up of alluvial silt and clay and marshy clay and peat.

Seismicity: Dhaka city falls in seismic zone II(z=0.2) of the seismic zoning map of Bangladesh
which means the city is at moderate risk (basic seismic coefficient is 0.5 g).
Topology: Surface elevation of the planned area ranges between 21 to 23 meters.
Meteorology: The monthly variation of the average maximum temperature which is between
39.6°C to 30.1°C. The monthly variation of the average minimum temperature is 22.5°C to
6.5°C. The average monthly rainfall during monsoon (June- September) season from 1980-2013
is 332 mm/month. The variance in the maximum rainfall during monsoon season is 836
mm/month to 552 mm/month, whereas the variance in the minimum rainfall is 136 mm/month to
59 mm/month.

Environmental Monitoring During Construction Phase

Air pollution

Construction materials should be properly covered while hauled and stored, roads thoroughly
cleaned, and water sprayed to minimize concentration of dust in air.
• Use of equipment like stone crushers (for concrete work), which produce excessive noise as
well as generate particulate matter, must not be used close to human settlement.
• During trench construction activities, the topsoil removed should be placed in a location that
ensures little or no fugitive dust formation from stockpile.
• Concentration of particulate matter within and around the project site should be measured, at
least once every three months, and air quality management plan should be revised, if needed.

Noise pollution
• Equipment producing excessive noise should not be operated after dark.
• As much as possible, use quiet equipment and working method
• Provide prior notification to the community on schedule of construction activities
• Vehicle movement to and from the site should be effectively managed to ensure that this causes
minimum disturbance to the people living in the surrounding areas.
• Noise levels along the perimeters of the project area should be monitored during the
construction period and any defective equipment or vehicle removed from activities
immediately.

Impacts on water resources

During excavation activities, the topsoil removed should be placed in a location that ensures no
turbidity impacts to nearby water resources.
• Should the contractor vacate the area leaving stockpiled material a suitable
penalty (fine and removal cost) should be levied to remedy the situation.

5.2 Climate Change and Disaster Risk Management

The climate of Bangladesh is changing continuously owing to the geographical position of the
country. Notable impacts of climate change in Bangladesh are Summers are becoming hotter,
monsoon irregular, untimely rainfall, heavy rainfall over short period causing water logging and
landslides, very little rainfall in dry period, increased river flow and inundation during monsoon,
increased frequency, intensity and recurrence of floods, crop damage due to flash floods and
monsoon floods, crop failure due to drought, prolonged cold spell, salinity intrusion along the
coast leading to scarcity of potable water and redundancy of prevailing crop practices, coastal
erosion, riverbank erosion, deaths due to extreme heat and extreme cold, increasing mortality,
morbidity, prevalence and outbreak of cholera and diarrhea, etc. will have a direct effect on our
project. However not all changes will have a direct effect on our project. According to the DRIP
Basic maps, Dhaka has a medium risk for cyclones but with a high exposure level. The same
condition is stated for earthquake. Besides the exposure and risks of Floods effecting our project
is minimum.
5.3 Traffic impact analysis
Introduction
A traffic impact analysis (TIA) is conducted to estimate the impact of the traffic generated by a
proposed development will have on the surrounding transportation network. The number of trips
generated by the development are estimated and distributed onto the transportation network
surrounding the site. The surrounding transportation network is then analyzed to determine if
acceptable levels-of-service are being provided or if the site-generated traffic is significant.

A transportation study should assess the transportation aspects of a proposed development that has
the potential of generating multi-modal trip activity. With new development comes changes to the
vehicular, pedestrian, bicycle, and transit travel patterns in the area near the site, all of which need
to be reviewed to ensure any impacts are identified and addressed. A transportation study should
illustrate an understanding of the existing and proposed transportation conditions around the
development, provide recommendations for measures to mitigate any adverse impacts caused by
the development, and demonstrate that the proposed development meets the transportation goals
established.

Section 6: Cost Benefit Analysis
6.1 Economic and Financial Evaluation
The proposed project’s economic advantages mainly consist of initial cost reduction and
maintenance cost return. This is an internal project by BUET authority which does not focus on
revenue generation, rather focuses on personal growth of its members. Benefit to cost ratio will
be lower than 1 for all alternatives in direct cost return in cash flow but health concern and death
toll reduction will add to financial overall evaluation. Per month subscription fee is set to an
exact value through which at least maintenance cost is covered.
In all cases of alternatives these two are the main factors.
Alternative 1 and 2 requires existing building demolition which is costly. Moreover, foundation
removal is quite tricky if existing foundation layout doesn’t match the proposed foundation. In
that case, Alternative 3 is more feasible due to the least initial cost.

Cost Amount Benefit Amount

Construction 426 million BDT Membership 400 BDT monthly (9-month

needed in total swimming pool open)
duration

Operational About 40 lakhs Canteen Rental 500,000 BDT per year

and for each year
maintenance

Rental of swimming Up to 20000 BDT per slot as per

pool in off season convenience

Total operation and maintenance cost- 40 lakh BDT per year

Revenue Generation- 41.6 lakh BDT per year
After our project implementation, the following benefits are expected to materialize:
1. Accidental death of a working person costs average Tk 2.46 million, according to a report
of RHD in 2017.[1] However, the report does not assess economic hardship, job losses or
other issues faced by the family. Thus, the actual cost of an accident is way higher than
that. As per recent cases, 4 cases of death due to drowning among BUET student in last 8
years. This can be totally avoided through an accessible swimming pool. As a result, the
accident cost saved can be considered as an economic benefit.
2. A study shows that 11.1% of health care costs were associated with physical
inactivity.[2] Our modern facilities in the gymnasium part will play a vital role in
physical activities. As a result, healthcare cost will be lower in the future for the focus
group. Another important benefit is workplace productivity. Recommended amount of
physical activity will result in lower levels of workplace productivity loss which, in turn,
can help boost GDP.
3. Mental health of the regular users will be in a better state. Regular exercise can have a
profoundly positive impact on depression, anxiety, and ADHD. It also relieves stress,
improves memory, helps sleep better, and boosts overall mood. Studies show that
exercise can treat mild to moderate depression as effectively as antidepressant
medication—but without the side-effects. As one example, a recent study done by the
Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health found that running for 15 minutes a day or
walking for an hour reduces the risk of major depression by 26%. Exercise relieves
tension and stress, boosts physical and mental energy, and enhances well-being through
the release of endorphins.[3] Studying in BUET can be stressful at times, regular exercise
opportunity can minimize the risk of suicidal tendencies as well.
4. As the proposed swimming pool space is as per international standard, competitive
swimming is possible here. Practicing here, student can take part in events and bring
name and fame to BUET. Moreover, rental for competitive events is also likely to be a
revenue source.

Section 10 : ALTERNATIVE ANALYSIS
For our project, we have analyzed total 3 options. For constructing a swimming pool, with all
modern facilities, there are many aspects to achieve, such as capacity and demand, enough space,
utility options, construction method etc. We have conducted google survey to estimate capacity
and analyzed other methods for convention way based on codes.

BUET gymnasium:
BUET gym is located next to Azimpur through Rashid hall connecting road. There are many
sports facilities including body building instruments. The initial plan was to renovate it for
modern facilities and constructing a swimming pool on top of it. The area of gym is 20000 sqft.
It is a 2 storied building.
Merits:
1.Already existing facilities can be used and modified
2. Easier for students as it is in campus
3. Less construction
4. financial benefits
Demerits:
1. Not enough utilities
2. Insufficient space, for swimming pool the estimated area is 50x25 ft, while there are
many other components like gallery, office room, sports building etc. gymnasium area is
too small for adding these facilities. Approximated total area required is
3. Existing foundation change is very expensive and time consuming.
4. New design cannot be adaptable without reconstruction
5. Not enough facilities for parking
6. No separate section or schedule for female students
7. Privacy issue is not satisfied as there are architectural department and teachers club etc.
nearby.
BUET FIELD:
BUET has a large playground at the eastern periphery of main academic campus. It is used as
venue of annual athletics competition of the university as well as cricket, football,
and hockey competitions. Students can access the facility all year round. Besides, visiting
foreign national football teams as well as few top football clubs of Bangladesh sometimes use
this ground for practice sessions. The playground is also used as venue of alumni
reunions. BUET has tennis court in the main academic area. It also has a gymnasium near halls
of residence where students can do gymnastics and play basketball during leisure.
Merits :
1. As there are many facilities, only adding swimming pool with some other facilities
would be enough.
2. Students can easily access.
3. Parking area of BUET can be used.
4. In campus safety facilities.
5. Easy water supply.

Demerits:
1. Insufficient area, the playground has 1500 sqm area, most of the area is occupied.
2. As there are other outdoor sports existing, enough distance among swimming pool
and other facilities cannot be maintained.
3. As the competitions of BUET are mostly held here, swimming pool facilities cannot be
scheduled for all time and when there are schedule for female, the playground cannot
be used by others.So the efficiency would be hampered greatly.
4. Also construction project would hamper playground normal activities.
5. Not developed drainage system.
 For all of these reasons, both of the locations are rejected. A location outside BUET is
selected. The selected site is Dhakeshwari temple area.

DHAKESHWARI TEMPLE AREA:

The area is almost about 9700sqm. Only a small area is occupied for an existing building. The
main reasons for selecting this area are –
• Sufficient area for all the components of the project planning
• Alternative designs can be planned and analyzed.
• Water supply system is adequate.
• Additional drainage system .
• There are road connecting to the site. So, no transportation problem.
• There is only one high rise building. To keep the swimming pool view private, shed will
be provided if needed.
• The swimming pool will get enough sunlight.
• Material for construction can easily be stored.
• Additional parking area can be
provided.

For all these above considerations we

have selected this location. Then comes

the method of construction. this is based

on equipment, water features, aquatic

facilities and most importantly cost and

available technology.

POOL TYPE:
Inground Concrete swimming pool is the most common in practice. It has many advantages.
• It is customizable. It could be given any size, shape and any other features.
It is durable. It can resist weathering and other elements. Also, it is less prone to cracking
and damage over time ensuring the pool will last for years.
• Sharp objects will not damage. but the plaster requires refinishing.
• Aesthetically pleasing.
• Proper maintaining can avoid staining and algae.
• It is convenient
• Above-ground swimming pools are prone to additional wear, occupy larger amounts of
space both physically and visually, and can damage the surface beneath them. So, it is
less sustainable.
• Above-ground swimming pool requires more regular maintenance to keep them sanitary
and debris free.

BUILDING TYPE:
The sports complex is mainly a 3 storied building. With that we have to build a gallery. All these
structures are common RCC buildings which can occupy the probable load of equipment of gym
and followed by codes. That has been analyzed in technical design sections.

Section 11: RECOMMENDATIONS

To build a beautiful swimming pool a team has to undergo a lot of stress and issues while
constructing a pool. It is a complex and detailed work. Again, finishing a project timely requires
lots of efforts. The main reason for these problems is disputes with contractor. That’s why it
should be handled with great care. Possible problems are listed below:
• The surface of the pool is very rough.
• Cracks in the surface and the structure.
• Maintenance issues occur more often.
• Plaster in the inner surface of the pool peels off and loses color.
• Parts of the swimming pool breaks off.
Probable reasons for these problems are stated:
 • Pouring the concrete foundation incorrectly:
concrete foundation will support the weight of construction and keep it from sinking into
the ground over time. Pouring incorrectly can result in cracks, leaks, and other structural
problems down the road. To avoid this mistake, hiring an experienced contractor is a
must.
• Not checking codes correctly:
if codes rules and regulations are not followed correctly can result in great problems like
tear down the pool.
• Building the pool too close to other structures:
it can create a host of problems from water damage to foundation issue. So proper
distance should be maintained by following the codes.
• Not allowing enough room for expansion:
over time, the weather and other factors will cause the swimming pool to expand and
contract. Otherwise, the sides of the pool could crack, and the deck could buckle.
• Not considering safety:
one of the most important safety features of any swimming pool is a good fence. Not
installing one can lead to potentially tragic accidents.
• Proper maintenance:
if water levels are not checked from time to time, it can pop out of the ground. Typically,
it appears when the pool is out of water.
• Waterproofing construction joints:
Water-stops are used to waterproof construction joints. They are generally PVC or vinyl.
The consequences can be very unpleasant, water leaks and delay of the projects.
• PVC tubes and fittings:
the installation of pool shell equipment has to fitted according to the technical
instructions. Otherwise, it can lead to blockage and ruin the rebar.

• Checking for leaks:

When the concrete shell of the pool is ready, it has to be filled with water, after 28 days
of pouring of the concrete. There should not be any leaks of water. Is any, the leaks
should be removed and then waterproofing should be applied.
All these problems should be handled with great care. Otherwise, the construction will be at loss.
