INTRODUCTION According to Delhi Master Plan- 2021, District Centres are defined as “the centres which are meant to serve as the apex of the multinodal activ- ities of the community, which should be conceived as major shopping centers, while serving the communi- ty with a reasonable variety of other services and facilities and also cen- tres of socio-cultural activity where the community can get together. The emphasis in these centers should be on commerce and their related activ- ities.” In a commercial hierarchy. District Centres meant to serve population of 5 Lakhs. In many places like Kolkata, 1.2 THESIS STATEMENT The topic will explore the condition of modern urban situation in which most of the people live spend their time in- side the building. Finding ways to pro- vide modern infrastructure for more open places like urban plazas, enter- tainment zones. Exploring inter-rela- they also referred as Sub-City Centre. A District Centre comes second in the commercial hierarchy after City Cen- tre. The term “City Centre” is primarily used in British English. It is a Urban Cen- tre which is concentrated with com- mercial, cultural and business area of a city or town. A District Centres are the central part and important com- mercial, cultural and often the histori- cal, political and geographic heart of a city. One such Centre is proposed in Twin District Centre, D2, Rohini by Delhi De- velopment Authority. It covers vast va- riety of functions such as convention, retail and office. tionships of the spaces with mixed use technique. Also give focus in evolving contempo- rary model for traditional Indian Bazars or Indian Markets. Giving them more healthy, comfortable and more func- tional open spaces.

DC | 15 dA 1.5 NEED FOR THE PROJECT Cities are the platform for social, phys- ical, cultural and economic co-exis- tence and conflict. Itisan urban space that has its attributes in complexity of interacting social relations. Many old cities of India, which were planned on the basis of existing culture and struc- ture, got transformed into complex patterns and fragments in order to keep up with the population pressure and evolving trends of urbanization. Congested urban areas are beholder of city's development history. They are chaotic and over populated. They seems to be exhausted in terms of re- sources and spaces to build or inter- vene. Finding balance in this situation is what the need of the hour is. The driving theme for the thesis research has been to find a solution to the above. Also to create a space which can form the node for holding and experiencing commercial, cultural and social activities. The interventions that aren't eye soar and invite people in. The land utilized should be given back to the people, im- proved, usable, and developed. Chandni Chowk 1.6 SCOPE The Proposal Consist of: * Auditorium * Office Space * Conference Room * Supermarket * Function Hall * Exhibition Site is located in ‘TWIN DISTRICT CEN- TRE’ in Rohini, Delhi. Twin District Cen- tre has two parts namely D1 and D2, separated by Swarn Jyanti Park which stretches 1KM along both sides. It is a major developing commercial district in the region, the site is an opportunity to look into the significant context with an architectural viewpoint. The District DC | 17 Centre will not only promote social activities, humanities and commerce but also provide employment and im- prove the economy of the region. Site is surrounded by road from all sides, and there is significant amount of resi- dential areas with mostly MIG housing with surrounds the District Centre. Culture 2. RESEARCH AREAS The idea of the project is to have a center for ‘Socio-Culture’ bringing people together, through performing arts, visual arts, commerce and gathering spaces. The primary issue is to understand and explore ways to create a lively character of a Public Space. To understand the objectives of Transi-Oriented Development in metropolises today. This, fabric comes not just with the functional components sitting together within a boundary but also through the combination of built and open. The idea is to explore such design elements/ideas which have made a successful public inter- action and lively space within the city of Delhi. To study the Transition Spaces and understand their role in an institution, other than circulatory spaces. The relationship of building to the site, street and neighboring buildings and to understand and explore the architectural expression of facade (openings and materials) in harmony with Urban Fabric of the surroundings of the District Centre. Other than this the study will include how cultural and commercial strategies cre- ate and enhance Sense of Place through Place-making, The research will also be looking into Sustainable Design ideas, with basic require- ments of acoustics, structures and lighting for workspaces for designing of spaces like office, auditorium, retail space, etc. DC | 18 ____AREAS OF RESEARCH PUBLIC SPACE Good public spaces are fundamen- tal to sustainable communities and healthy cities. Public spaces have the power to improve city life and strengthen our relationship to com- munity and place. Throughout history, public spaces have embodied public life by being a true shared, democrat- ic space for all. Public spaces are vi- tal ingredient of successful cities. They help build a sense of community, civic identity and culture. Public spaces fa- So, what makes a good public space? cllitate social capital, economic de- velopment and community revitaliza- tion. Healthy public spaces are the spring- board for revitalizing communities, whatever they are and wherever they are. That an attractive, active, well functioning public space can jump- start economic development in a community — from a small rural town to a big city — is being recognized in- creasingly around the world. * The public space should have some utility to come to the space. * The public space should be diverse in its functions, nature and landscape. * The public space should be dynamic and the public should feel a part of it. The Public Realm The public realm can be seen as the space in which different activities take place and where people share direct and indirect encounters everyday. These spaces include the street, path- ways and open spaces. Since the public realm, fundamentally, is based DC | 19 on people and what they do, edge conditions need to be tailored to the needs of the users of the public realm, by being designed to a human scale and comfortability as well as being accessible fo them. TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT Halfway through the last century the world acquainted itself with the con- cept of a transit-centric mode of ur- ban development. Its earliest incidents can be traced back to 1940's Stock- holm and 1960's Paris where, in an attempt to cope with the increased metropolitan growth and automobile travel, transit-oriented development first began to take shape. It is be- lieved that localized densities around transit systems could produce posi- five synergies. According to a Cevero and Zupan (1996), offices attract high number of commuters while housing near transit, both low-cost and high- end, offered similar synergies as well. This new model of urban planning was conceptualized to mitigate the ad- verse effects of urbanization in cities. “Mixed-use community that encourages people fo live near transit services and to decrease their dependence on driving. TODs mix residential, retail, office, open space, and public uses in walkway environment, making it convenient for residents and employees to travel by transit, bicycle, foot or car.” GzP Transit Oriented Development (TOD) is a foundational planning concept that integrates the potential of coordinat- ing land use planning, transportation system design and infrastructure in- -Calthorpe (1993) Secondary ~~ Area . s Residential Cte Oot vestments, as an integrated process with people and public transit. TOD in- tegrates land use and transport plan- ning and aims to develop planned sus- tainable urban growth centers, having DC | 20 walkable and livable communes with high density mixed land-use. Cifi- zens have access to open green and public spaces and at the same time transit facilities are efficiently uti- lized. TOD focuses on creation of high density mixed land use development in the influence zone of transit sta- tions, i.e. within the walking distance of (500-800 m) transit station or along the corridor in case the station spac- ing is about 1km TOD advocates pe- destrian trips to access various facili- ties such as shopping, entertainment and work (National Institute of Urban Affairs, 2016). ry G22 * TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT IN INDIA Post the announcement of mission based programs like Jawaharlal Neh- ru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) in 2005, Atal Mission for Re- juvenation, and Urban Transforma- tion (AMRUT) and Smart Cities in 2015, there has been huge emphasis on in- i TOD Principles DC | 21 vestments in public transport (Joshi, Joseph, Patel & Darji, 2017). TOD in Indian cities should be looked at as a tool for improving quality of life and financial means to provide infrastructure facilities (Petkar and Ha- mand 2013). is TOD Support Principles Tools TOD is advocated as the sustainable alternative to sprawl and automobile de- pendency primarily because it: * Enable Transformation: To assist in transformation of cities from private vehicle dependent city to public iransport oriented development, * Accessible Public Transport: To promote the usage of public transport by mak- ing it accessible, encourage green mobility by encouraging people to walk ‘and cycle and at the same time curb pollution and other negative impacts of motorization. * Compact Walkable Communities: To create livable and affordable communi- ties, which are compact and walkable. * Promotes Dense Communities: To help defray costs of building and operating mass transit infrastructure. * Avoid Need of Commuting: By introducing job centres, housing and retail with- in same development. TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT - NCT The National Capital Territory (NCT) is located at the core of the National Cap- ital Region (NCR) in India. NCT Delhi is highly urbanized with 93.18 percent of its population living in urban areas as against the national average of 27.81 percent (Joshi, Joseph, Patel and Darji, 2017). The Delhi Development Authority, responsi- ble for dratting the Master Plan of Delhi 2021. * High-density development, non-motorized transit, pedestrianization and inclu- sivily can be seen as the common theme for the TOD norms in India. * Since the tum of the century, the new planning principle of Transit-Orient- ed Development (TOD) is seen as the last lap of achieving sustainable ur- ban transformation after a wave of policies such as the Smart Cities, AMRUT, MMI (Mult-Modal Integration), Last mile connectivity options, Green Mobility Schemes, etc. * The ideas of transit-oriented development has become nearly synonymous with inclusive urpan spaces. “Key for low-carbon, compact development with mixed land use that allows for optimized development along transit corridor. TOD increases densities and plac- es high-rises along the transit corridors to accommodate a wide variety of uses. It is an ideal tool for governments fo address inclusivity by citing minimum caps for housing for various segments. With the policy capturing the essential elements of mixed-use development, non-motorized transport and pedestrian priority, and encouraging a walk-to-work culture, Delhi in particular is looking at TOD as a solution to its mobility and air quality challenges by developing the areas around metro stations." -(WRI, 2014) DC | 22 TRANSITION SPACES “Architectural spaces that envelop us like a physical presence, simple and dense, defying description imitation and photography. Universal, yet present. The ex- terior is simple leading to greater levels of mystery surprise and memory, creating poetic changes of light and shade . . Transition — an in between state, in Architecture, is defined as a link or a connecting space between two con- fined spaces. Architectural spaces are incomplete without transition spaces. The inclusion of transitional and circu- lation spaces, in the form of corridors, atrium and stairwells, is unavoidable in the design of most buildings. Definition of a transition spaces, locat- ed in between the inner and the out- er environment act as a ‘buffer zone’. They act as both a buffer space anda physical link. There is hierarchy in tran- sition spaces in any urban planning like City level, Town level, District level or Local level. The road network itself acts as a transition mode. Integrated in the city scape there are SENSE OF PLACE As both an overarching idea and @ hands-on approach for improv- ing a neighborhood, city, or region, Place-making inspires people to col- lectively re imagine and reinvent pub- lic spaces as the heart of every com- munity. Strengthening the connection between people and the places they share, Place-making refers to a collaborative process by which we can shape our public realm in order to maximize share value. More than just promoting better urban design, DC | 23 guiding us through its spaces . - Alvaro Siza on Mexican Architecture interaction spaces, gathering spaces, urban corridors, plazas that standstill but act as a transition space in their own way. The one of the most important func- tions of transition spaces is sustainabili- ty in building design. The accurate use of these spaces in a built form may increase its energy efficiency up to great extent. Design elements contributed a lot to transition spaces. There are colon- nades, aisles, courtyards, water-bod- ies, openings like doorways, pathways, patios, gardens, pergolas, foyers, lob- bies, etc. If there is no defined space then confinement by some of the above elements itself make the space functional and sensible. Place-making facilitates creative pat- tems of use, paying particular atien- tion to the physical, cultural and social identities that define a place and sup- port its ongoing evolution. With community based participation at its center, an effective Place-mak- ing process capitalizes on a local community's assets, inspiration, and potential, and if results in creation of quality public spaces that contribute to people's health, happiness, and well being. 2. RESEARCH CASE STUDY INTENT OF STUDY: * To study the environment created inside the complex to through different architec- tural elements, facade treatment, material landscape and climate-tempered court- yards. To analyze the offices provided to various institutions/Individual firms. Finally to analyze the architectural character, circulation-vehicular, and pedestrian, the services provided and the parking of vehicles. The INDIAN HABITAT CENTRE was con- ceived to provide a physical environ- ment which would serve as a catalyst for a synergistic relationship between individuals and institutions working in diverse habitat related areas and therefore, maximize their total effec- tiveness. To facilitate this interaction, the Centre provides a range of faci- ities. Sharing a commen concerns to habitat, various organizations have come together to participate in in- stitution-building, evolving a synergy within the India Habitat Centre com- plex. Complex was designed under supervision of architect Joseph Allen Stein. India habitat Centre was Stein's larg- est project consisting of six restaurants, four galleries, one auditorium, amphi- theater and an atrium. The landscap- ing, horticulture, fountains, add to the pleasing ambiance of the campus. DC | 24 NEW DELHI ____INDIA HABITAT CENTRE INFORMATION ARCHITECT JOSEPH ALLEN STEIN SITE AREA 38400 SQ.M.

LOCATION The India Habitat Centre is located along the Lodhi Road on the fringes of Lutyen's Delhi designed by Architect Joseph Allen Stein. The L-Shaped site has frontage on the three sides. It is bounded by Max Muller Marg on West, the Vardhman Marg on south and the Lodhi Road on the north. The fourth side is flanked by Bal Bharthi School. The complex is accessible from three sides, the major pedestrian entrance being from Lodhi road on the north, ZONING * The complex is built on an area of 9acres with a super built area of 97,000 SQ. M. And can be accessed through three sides having Lodhi Road on the north- em side segregating vehicular and pedestrian movement. * There are 5 main blocks which are interconnected by mens of aerial walkways serving various functional spaces like office spaces, exhibition spaces, Confer- ence facilities, cafeterias etc. These building blocks being separated manage to create interesting courtyards that are partially open to the elements. * The distribution of various functions is through simplistic but highly functional. There is entry to the site from each road abutting it. Thus it has three entrances. * The two blocks on the Lodhi Road, which is the major road surrounding the site, have offices on the top and reserved for public facilities on the ground floor. * Whereas third block on the south houses common facilities like the conference center, auditorium, library and a guest house are zoned along the Vardhman. Marg, which gives it a quite zone, as the road does not support traffic. * The convention block is divided into two built structures, an auditorium and the Convention Centre. This segregation helps in better handling of crowd and there is also separate entry to the Convention Center that avoids other disturbances. * Therestaurants and exhibition spaces on the ground floor opens into the courts, these are also used for public exhibitions enhancing interactions. * The two basement parking (933 Cars) houses most of the parking and services extended under the entire bloc, it also had surface parking (60 Cars) and sep- arate parking for buses and private vehicles.

PEDESTRIAN: The Pedestrian linkages is though paved pathway in different types of stones in different patterns linking the landscape courts. Once inside the complex the blocks are interconnected with the protective sunscreen. Blocks are intercon- nected to each other with bridges. It has adequate provision for non-ambulatory disabilities, but does not cater to the needs of visual and hearing impairments. VEHICULAR: Remarkable feature of IHC is that it is absolutely traffic free environmental cars and scooters are directed into two levels of basement from peripheral road. Movement is so planned to facilitate left turning into and form the site in entering or leaving the site, all right turning conflicts eliminated. PARKING: Parking is provided in two levels in the basement. The car parking is divided into visually and physically identifiable blocks. Each driveway is provided with proper directional sign-age. The movement are simplified by adopting one way system that generally follows clockwise movement pattern. A separate driveway is pro- vided for HUDCO and seminar hall to allow ways access of vehicles. The entry and exit to the main parking is provided on the ground floor itself. Uniform struc- tural grid of 4.5x6 MTS and 6xé.5 is flowed in the parking area inadequate parking for scooters. Only one entry point for two wheelers to enter.

The hall is ideal for large conferences, seminars, special screenings, presentations, theatre and cultural perfor- mances of all kinds. Simultaneous interpretation can be mostly available on request. Main auditorium is also provided with Ma- hogany room, a hall suited for small gath- ering with attached kitchenette and wash- room apart from control rooms and projector room on the first floor. Green room lacks the usual requirements of toilets + The level difference between two seat performs is 1-6 which makes viewing abso- lutely obstruction free. This auditorium has been provided with balcony seating too. * Double Wall system avoids sounds distur- bance from outside. + Area of this auditorium is 575 SQ.

ARCHITECTURAL EXPRESSION BUILT TO OPEN * The massing is also articulate according to existing context, the blocks adja- cent to the housing area are reduced in volume. * The blocks progressively reduced in volume, office spaces being the highest to the auditorium that is the lowest level building in complex. * The auditorium is set back substantially from the plat line to create a distinct identity. * The built is arranged in the manner that there are multiple courtyard created that flow into each other. * The linear built is directional and helps in movement inside the site. * The built due has both north south and east west orientation, which is though not good in climate of Delhi, but helps to shade the open spaces. The focus has been more on the open space structure. THE BRIDGES * The buildings are grouped around semi-covered courts and linked at 5th and 6th floor level and above bridges to form huge gateways for entrance into various zones/courts. These multi level bridges provide office space as well as links between various building zones. * The bridges from framed views and vistas and complete the character of the enclosed courts. SHADING DEVICES * A system of open sky, shaded canopies over the large paved courts, provide relief from tropic sun with shade casting elements, devised to shade the court- yards in summer, and the lit in the sun in the winter. * Al.2m deep galvanized steel tubular framework stretches edge to edge across the courtyard and is anchored concrete overhangs at the edges. Shade casting leaves of PVC coated nylon fabric, approximately 1.6 X 1.4m are anchored at the predetermined angles within this framework to provide shading element. FINISHES * Exposed brickwork with exposed R.C.C. in cantilevered corridors * Ceramic Tiles-Green, Red and Grey used in extensions to define vertical and also in interiors of lobby used to give an effect to flow. INFERENCES The orientation and designing of building is done keeping in mind the comfort of the users and making it Eco-friendly The site is very pedestrian friendly with a smooth pedestrian flow but one gets confused about what is where. There is problem of sign-ages. The core system makes the movement very rigid and makes the connectivity between the blocks very poor. The beautiful landscaped courts and open spaces are well linked to each other and spaces seen to flow into each other. Open spaces like amphitheater make the complex lively. ‘An important consequences of combining the public spaces with offices in the creation of informal activity arrangement as may activity spaces ensures that the campus is clive and populated even after office hours. All the public activities are located on the ground floor and semi public activ- ities are located in higher floor for smooth functionality The complex is well serviced, with major chunk of the service in the lower base- ment and service are well connected to the building through cores. The articulation of the open spaces is features that makes the IHC a Distinctive and active public space in the city. Passive solar techniques like using shading canopies which reflect the unwant- ed radiation, keeping width of the court is equal to the height of the building , makes the Centre of energy efficient.

The mall is designed in L-shape and SITE PLAN SELECT CITY WALK this helps in easily accessing the spac- es inside from multiple points.

PEDESTRIAN MOVEMENT Above illustration shows how the landscaped court of this mall helps in orienting the us- ets according to the building’s movement system. The court almost acts like a collec- tor that does the job of collecting the visi- tors that enter the premise from various dif- ferent access points, and channel them all in a controlled movement system under its semi-covered colonnaded walkway along its boundary. This walkway spans across the access points of all three malls and give equal opportunities of access for them all SPATIAL HIERARCHY AND CONNECTIONS There is a 2.5 M wide passage running on one side of the plaza through which users can enter the mall from any of the four access points. The court facing edge of the mall has been attempted to be made porous, how- ever the mall typology does not allow much interaction with outdoor conditions espe- cially on floors above ground floor.

SALT LAKE CITY Salt Lake City or Bidhannagar as it is popularly called, is a planned satellite town in the Indian state of West Ben- gal. It was developed beiween 1958 and 1965 to accommodate the bur- geoning population of Kolkata, the state capital. It was supposed to be place for middle income group peo- ple fleeing the unbearable conditions and density of inner city. If was planed in a grid iron fashion with entire area geometrically divid- ed into 68 blocks. It was intended to house approximately a population of FG 292 1,68,000 belonging to the then middle and high income groups of Kolkata. Its street hierarchy built to open rela- tionship and demographics make it a. comparable to Dwarka Sub City of Dwarka. People began to come and settle in Salt Lake in 70s. In 80s, Salt lake came to be know as a distinguished town in Kolkata. Many administrative offic- es of West Bengal Government were shifted from Kolkata to Salt Lake. To- day Salt Lake is a city with mixed character. Dc | 42 SALT LAKE CITY, KOLKATA ____SALT LAKE CITY CENTRE INFORMATION CLIENT AMBUJA-NEOTIA GROUP.

This was done to seam- lessly integrate retail with community and create a rich urban realm that altracts footfall for reasons more that just that of retail. It was conceived as microcosm of the whole metropolis, such that it caters fo multiple land uses and diverse income profiles.

DC | 44 PLANNING AND SERVICES It offers a wide range and nature of spaces ranging from a small ‘dukkan' jo large air conditioned boutique and anchor stores. These varying activities, all aranged in a fine grained mix, are generated by a complex system of spaces, from broad colonnaded public arcades to narrow street “galis” to large terraced plazas culminating in the 'kund' in the center of the complex. Coffee shops and restaurants, strategically placed at pivotal locations, provide oppor- tunities to engage in social interac- tions further reinforcing the concept of integration of retail with community thought formation of ‘addas'. The City Centre has no compound walls. This helps in creating a perme- able edge condition andrenders a po- rous appearance to the compound. Closely placed orthogonal built forms help in creating narrow streets that give rise to interesting movement pat- terns through the compound. oa THIRD FLOOR PLAN FORTH FLOOR PLAN : PROJECT COMPONENTS * Retail (Small store, kiosk and an- chor shops) * Food Court * Specialty Restaurant * Banquets * Residences * Cineplex CIRCULATION PATTERN mm Conventions Hall mm Meeting Room mm Hotel mm Services * Parametric vehicular movement for parking and movement through. * Parking is distributed throughout the site to enhance the all utility area of site. * Pedestrian movement at random natural movement inside project.

Such a typology brings op- portunities of engagement in an ur ban realm. The open space along the ‘kund’ is used for informal bazaar to enable users to easily access the icated user group. City Centre successfully brings the two together by carefully placing them in conjunction with each other, where the bigger boutique store are placed at the comers of each block and the smaller retailers are given spaces aligned in a series along narrow street cutting through these blocks extend- ing from one edge of the compound to another.

The Delhi Devel- opment Authority is planning to make Rohini into a fully integrated township and hence planned Twin District Cen- tres each spread over 32 Hac. The Twin Districts has well defined zones for retail malls, corporate offices, and cultural and entertainment zones like food courts, multiplex and amphithe- ater. The District Centre has metro connec- tivity (Rohini West and Rithala Metro Stations) and is separated by a cen- tral green area of about 100 Hactares made up of gardens, amusement parks and leisure areas. In DC-1, a lot of commercial and multiplex spaces has come up like Crown Plaza Ho- tel, City Centre Mall, Unity One Mall, DC | 67 Ambiance Mall, D-Mall. Between the District Centre is a large park that pro- vides green belt and thereby help in increasing the visual appeal to the project. Also between the District Centres exists “The Metro Walk Mall and Adventure Island" that spraw! over 64 acres of site. The project encompasses a shop- ping mall, Metro Walk and Adventure Island, a world class amusement park and a water park. There has also been made a provi- sion for multilevel parking. The DMRC created a multilevel parking which can accommodate 550 cars at Rohini West Metro Station. Along with a mall, Unity One Mall that has shopping, mu tiplex and restaurants. 3.3 SITE ANALYSIS ens 4 a \eN ESIDENTIAL DS * ay < We x 4 y a aS, \ Uy fs NSP... te \, 4 > "4: vy 3) i ee ~% %~& ‘fe \ < ( eens ~ i Fioa7 # Located in Twin District Centre a developing hub at center of Rohini for commercial activities. # Access Roads on all sides. # Dense residential area around these site.

DC 171 3.5 CLIMATIC STUDY The geographical location of Delhi is 28° 35'N latitude and 77° 12'E longitude. It is located at an altitude of 216 meter above mean sea level. Delhi is situated on the banks of Yamuna River. The climate of Delhi is extreme. Winter begins in late November or early December. Summer arrives in early April and continues up to late June. Monsoon season starts in the late June or first week of July. Autumn season starts by mid October marked with warm days and pleasant nights. Max- imum temperature drops below 30° C and minimum temperature drops below 20° C and there is a gradual fall in average temperature. A particular season does not prevail for more than six months in Delhi and there- fore Delhi is placed in a Composite climate. Composite climates are neither con- sistently hot and dry nor warm and humid. The main consideration for the design- er in the composite climate is to create balance between conservation of heat in the winters and exclusion of heat in summer. New Deth AVERAGE TEMPERATURE cia + In summer temperature goes upto 45° C or evenmore. * Average temperature in summer varies from 25° C to 45°C. + Inmonsoon temperature drops be- low 40°C. * In winter, temperature varies from $C 10 22°C, * By early January, the minimum tem- perature is close to 0° C and maxi- cig — Menem) — Min Tempe) —avgrTema ce mum isin single digit.

TECHNOLOGICAL SYSTEMS. 5.1 SUSTAINABILITY BUILT FORM AND ORIENTATION The main orientation of the building should be within 30° of south. Oriented to east of south will benefit from the morning sun. Those orientated west of south will catch the late afternoon sun — which can help delay the evening heating period.

This separation creates an open cavity allowing the exchange of the air con- tained between the wall and the outer cladding. The cavity provides a range of thermal, acoustic, aesthetic and functional advantages. Ventilated facades significantly reduce noise levels, cutting them by up to half. Internal Heat Flow: Laying insulation on the exterior part p> >> = of the wall prevents thermal bridges across the facade. Heat loss towards the outside in winter is blocked, as is the heat coming from the outside in summer, resulting in energy savings of between 15% and 35%, both in terms of heating and air conditioning. External Heat Flow: Laying insulation on the exterior part of the wall provides the building with greater thermal mass. This increases the building's thermal inertia and producing a more comfortable ambiance. The wall tile acts as a screen, reflecting a great deal of the solar ra- diation and preventing it from entering the building. DC | 87 DRY WALL CLADDING * Method allow for expansion and contraction of cladding panel/stone/tile in extreme weather conditions. * The dry cladding method creates a gap of around 30-45mm in between back wall and cladding panel/stone/tile, providing a layer of air cushion that acts as a thermal barrier. DOUBLE GLAZED LOW-E GLASS FACADE * Low-E is an additive or very thin layer incorporated to the glass composition. It limit the amount of heat transmitted through glass as well as UV-rays. It allows just the right amount of natural light into a building, while at the same time reduces glare. * Double glazing is two glass panels with a layer of aiir in between. The concept is the air in between makes minimizes the transfer of heat from the two sides of the glass. 5.3 ROOF BROKEN CHINA MOSAIC TERRACING Well-graded broken pieces of glossy glazed tiles pro- vide an inexpensive and conducive cool roofing op- tion. Broken pieces of glazed tiles (preferably white) are embedded in wet mortar to provide a smooth sur- face that does not undulate. Joints are then grouted using cement mortar with waterproofing material.
