 Abstract
In this project we prepared plan of AUDITORIUM OF 300 SEATS as per IS
specification. For planning, we use IS: 2526-1963 (Indian Standard code of practice for
acoustical design of auditoriums and conference hall).
Auditorium planning is very different from planning of ordinary residential building.
In this we have to consider different perspective angle. Based on this angles the size of
auditorium will be dependent. There are number of auditorium types, in this project we plan
for proscenium Theatre. It is a auditoriums with audience only on the front sides. And hall
shape is fan shape which is consider as most efficent shape for hall of auditorium. We also give
genenral information about auditorium which will help in understanding more about
auditorium design. For preparing plan of auditorium we use AUTOCAD software.

CHAPTER 1:
INTRODUCTION [5]

An auditorium is a room constructed to allow a target audience to hear and watch

performances. Auditoria can be discovered in entertainment venues, community halls, and
theaters, and may also be used for rehearsal, presentation, performing arts productions, or as a
learning space. An enclosure, covered or open, where people can assemble for watching a
performance given on the stage is called an auditorium.

Auditoriums are typically designed with specific features to enhance the audience's
experience. One crucial aspect is acoustics. The architecture of an auditorium focuses on
controlling sound reflections and reverberations to ensure that the audience can hear the performers
clearly and without distortion. Materials such as specialized wall panels, sound-absorbing ceiling
tiles, and strategically placed acoustic panels are used to optimize the sound quality within the
space. In addition to acoustics, sightlines are carefully considered during the design of an
auditorium. Sightlines refer to the unobstructed views from each seat in the auditorium. The
seating arrangement is often sloped or tiered, allowing the audience to have a clear line of sight to
the stage, regardless of their location. This ensures that everyone can see the performers and any
visual elements of the performance, such as projected images or set designs.

Auditoriums are equipped with technical infrastructure to support various types of

performances. This includes professional-grade lighting systems, sound reinforcement systems,
and audiovisual equipment. The stage is designed to accommodate different types of
performances, with features such as wings, fly systems, trapdoors, and backstage areas for
performers and crew members. Auditoriums are versatile spaces that can host a wide range of
events. They serve as platforms for artistic expressions, where theater productions, musical
performances, dance recitals, and orchestral concerts take place. They also provide a setting for
educational activities such as lectures, seminars, and presentations. Many auditoriums are designed
to be multipurpose, allowing them to be easily transformed to meet the specific needs of different
events.

 Overall, an auditorium is a purpose-built space that combines architectural, acoustic, and
technical considerations to create an immersive environment for both performers and audiences.
It offers a dedicated platform for artistic and educational experiences, bringing people together to
appreciate the performing arts and share memorable moments.

Fig. 1.1 Auditorium

1.1 TYPES OF AUDITORIUM [7]

Arena Theatre:
An arena theatre, also known as theatre-in-the-round, is characterized by a central stage
surrounded by audience seating on all sides. This setup allows for an immersive and intimate
theatrical experience, with the audience seated close to the action. Arena theatres often have a
minimalistic set design and rely on flexible staging to accommodate different productions.

Fig. 1.2 Arena Theatre

SSBT’s College Of Engineering And Technology, Bambhori, Jalgaon (MS) 2

 Proscenium Theater:
A proscenium theater is one of the most common types of auditoriums. It features a stage
that is framed by a proscenium arch, creating a distinct separation between the performers and
the audience. The audience is seated facing the stage, and there is usually a backstage area
hidden from view. Proscenium theatres provide a traditional and formal setting for theatrical
performances.

Fig. 1.3 Proscenium Theater

Thrust Theater:
A thrust theater is characterized by a stage that extends into the audience, surrounded on
three sides. This configuration creates a closer connection between the performers and the
audience, allowing for a more intimate and immersive experience. Thrust theatres often have
a minimalistic set design and provide a sense of proximity and engagement between actors and
spectators.

Fig. 1.4 Thrust Theater

SSBT’s College Of Engineering And Technology, Bambhori, Jalgaon (MS) 3

 Flexible Theater:
A flexible theater, also known as a black box theater, is a highly adaptable space that can
be configured in different ways to suit various productions. These auditoriums have a simple
design with a flexible seating arrangement and movable or adjustable stage elements. The
space can be modified to create different stage layouts, such as in-the-round, thrust, or
proscenium, depending on the requirements of the production.

Fig. 1.5 Flexible Theater

Black Box Theater

A black box theater, also known as a black box venue or simply a black box, is a flexible
and adaptable performance space characterized by its simple design and minimalistic
aesthetics. The name "black box" refers to the typically unadorned black walls and floors of
the space.

 Lecture Hall:
Lecture halls are auditoriums primarily used for educational purposes. They typically
feature tiered seating, with a podium or lectern at the front where a speaker delivers lectures
or presentations to a large audience. Lecture halls in universities and educational institutions
often have audiovisual equipment for multimedia presentations.

Fig. 1.7 Lecture Hall

Film Auditorium:

Film auditoriums, also known as cinema halls or movie theaters, are designed for screening movies
and other audiovisual presentations. They feature large screens, comfortable seating, and advanced
sound systems to enhance the cinematic experience.

CHAPTER 3 :
METHODOLOGY
3.1 Preliminary Research:

In the preliminary research phase, a thorough analysis of auditorium design principles,

space requirements, and relevant building codes was conducted. This involved studying
existing auditorium designs, reviewing architectural guidelines, and understanding the specific
needs and preferences of the target audience. Research was also conducted to gather
information on acoustic considerations, sightline requirements, and accessibility standards to
ensure that the design meets industry best practices.

3.2 Conceptual Sketches:

Based on the preliminary research findings, conceptual sketches were created to explore
different design possibilities. These sketches served as a visual representation of the initial
ideas and allowed for experimentation with various seating arrangements, stage configurations,
and spatial layouts. The goal was to find the most suitable design that maximizes seating
capacity, optimizes sightlines, and provides an aesthetically pleasing environment.

3.3 Space Allocation:

Once a promising conceptual design was identified, the next step was to allocate space
within the auditorium for different components. This involved carefully considering the seating
arrangement, aisles, stage or screen location, entrances and exits, and other necessary facilities
such as restrooms and concession stands. The objective was to ensure efficient circulation,
proper spacing between seats, and convenient access to amenities.

3.4 Detailed Layout:

Using AutoCAD, a detailed layout was created based on the selected conceptual design
and space allocation decisions. This involved accurately translating the conceptual sketches
into precise digital drawings. The layout included measurements and dimensions for seating
rows, aisles, stage area, as well as incorporating structural elements such as columns and

SSBT’s College Of Engineering And Technology, Bambhori, Jalgaon (MS) 8

 beams. Consideration was given to ensure compliance with building codes, safety regulations,
and optimal functionality.

3.5 Section and Elevation:

Sections and elevations were developed to provide a comprehensive

understanding of the auditorium's vertical dimensions and external appearance.
The section drawings showcased the different levels of the auditorium, including
ceiling height, balcony levels, and structural details. Elevation drawings depicted
the façade, entrances, windows, and other architectural elements. These drawings
helped visualize the auditorium's overall aesthetics and allowed for a more
accurate representation of the design.

3.6 Material Selection:

Consideration was given to selecting appropriate materials for different components of the
auditorium. This involved evaluating the durability, aesthetics, and acoustical properties of
various materials for seating, flooring, wall finishes, and acoustic treatments. Factors such as
comfort, maintenance requirements, and budget constraints were also taken into account during
the material selection process.
By following this methodology, the project team ensured a systematic and comprehensive
approach to planning the auditorium for 300 people using AutoCAD. Each step, from
preliminary research to material selection, was carefully executed to achieve an optimal design
that meets the functional, aesthetic, and safety requirements of the project.

CHAPTER 4 :
GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN [5]
4.1. SITE SELECTION AND PLANNING

The choice of site for an auditorium is governed by several factors which may be mutually
conflicting, but a compromise has to be struck between the various considerations
involved. The problem of noise is an important consideration.
In fact, the quietest possible condition should be provided so that intelligibility of speech
does not suffer and even soft passages of music are heard..
When air-conditioning is provided special care should be taken to attenuate the plant noise
and the grill noise. For this purpose plant should be suitably isolated and ducts as well as
the plenum should be so designed that noise gets adequately reduced so as to be within the
permissible limits.

4.2. SIZE AND SHAPE

The size should be fixed in relation to the number of audience required to be seated.
The floor area of the hall including, gangways (excluding the stage) should be calculated
on the basis of 0.6 to 0.9 sq. m per person.
The height of the hall is determined by such considerations as ventilation, presence (or
absence) of balcony and the type of performance.

4.2.1 Different Shapes of Halls

Floor plans of various shapes are used, but the one which is considered to give satisfactory
results without introducing complications in the acoustical treatment of the hall is the FAN-
SHAPED PLAN.

SSBT’s College Of Engineering And Technology, Bambhori, Jalgaon (MS) 10

 Fig. 3.1: Different Shapes of Hall

4.2.2 Rear wall

The auditorium rear walls should be either flat or convex in shape. This should not be
concave in shape, but where it cannot be avoided, the acoustical design shall indicate either
the surface to be splayed or convex corrugations given in order to avoid any tendency for
the sound to focus into the hall.

4.2.3 Side wall

Where the side walls are non-parallel as in the case of a fan-shaped hall, the walls may
remain reflective and may be architecturally finished in any manner required, if sound
absorbing material is not required from other considerations.
Where the side walls are parallel they may be left untreated to a length of about 7.5 m from
the proscenium end. In addition, any of the surfaces, likely to cause a delayed echo or
flutter echo should be appropriately treated with a sound absorbing material. Difference
between the direct path and the path reflected from aide wall. shall not exceed 15m.

SSBT’s College Of Engineering And Technology, Bambhori, Jalgaon (MS) 11

4.3 FLOOR

For good visibility as also for good listening conditions, the successive rows of seats have
to r be raised over the preceding ones with the result that the floor level rises towards the
rear.
The elevation is based on the principle that each listener shall be elevated with respect to
the person immediately in front of him so that the listener's head is about 12 cm above the
path of sound which would pass over the head of the person in front of him. It is possible
to reduce this to 8 cm, if the seats are staggered.
As an empirical rule the angle of elevation of the inclined floor in an auditorium should
not be less than 8 degrees.

4.4 STAGE

The size of the stage depends upon the type of performance the hall is to cater for. It would
be large for theatres, while it would be comparatively small for cinema halls which again
depends on the size of the screen.

4.5 PROPORTIONS OF AN AUDITORIUM

These are obtained from spectator's psychological perception and viewing angles, as well as
requirement for good view from all seats.

Head movement should be according to the following:-

30 - No movement

60 Slight eye movement

110 - Slight eye and head movement

150 - Head movement 90 degree.

360 Full head and shoulder movement

CHPTER 5: AutoCAD Implementation
5.1 Software and Tools Used:

The project utilized AutoCAD, a widely used computer-aided design software, for the
implementation of the auditorium planning. The specific version of AutoCAD used, such as
AutoCAD 2022 or later, was determined based on availability and compatibility with the
project requirements. In addition to AutoCAD, other software tools like AutoCAD
Architecture or specialized plugins may have been employed to enhance the design process
and increase efficiency.

5.2 Floor Plan Creation:

The floor plan creation in AutoCAD involved several steps. The project team started by
setting up the drawing workspace, including appropriate units and scales. They then began
drawing the floor plan layout using basic drawing tools such as lines, circles, rectangles, and
arcs. The measurements and dimensions determined during the detailed layout phase were
inputted precisely to ensure accuracy.
To represent seating rows, they may have utilized the Array command in AutoCAD to
duplicate a single seating unit along the rows. Layers were used to organize different elements
of the floor plan, such as seating, aisles, stage area, entrances, and exits. Hatch patterns or fills
were applied to represent different materials or finishes on the floor plan.

5.3 Section and Elevation Development:

To create the section and elevation drawings, the project team used AutoCAD's section and
elevation tools. They selected appropriate section and elevation planes and positioned them in
relation to the floor plan. By referencing the floor plan, they then drew the section and elevation
views, accurately representing the vertical dimensions of the auditorium.
Drawing tools such as lines, polylines, and hatching were utilized to depict the structural
elements, such as columns, beams, and walls. Text and dimensions were added to provide
additional information and clarify measurements. The use of layers helped organize the
different elements in the section and elevation drawings, ensuring clear and legible
representations.

SSBT’s College Of Engineering And Technology, Bambhori, Jalgaon (MS) 15

5.4 Material Specifications:

AutoCAD was employed to generate material specifications for different components of

the auditorium. The project team may have utilized AutoCAD's annotation tools, such as text
and leaders, to label and describe the specified materials. Material symbols or callouts could
have been added to indicate the specific materials chosen for seating, flooring, wall finishes,
and acoustic treatments.
Throughout the AutoCAD implementation, the project team adhered to industry-standard
practices, ensuring that the drawings were accurately scaled, properly dimensioned, and
organized in a logical manner. They regularly reviewed and revised the drawings to incorporate
any changes or adjustments required during the design development process.

By utilizing AutoCAD effectively, the project team achieved precise and detailed
representations of the auditorium's floor plan, section, elevation, and material specifications.
The software's drawing and annotation tools facilitated the creation of accurate and
professional drawings, contributing to the successful implementation of the auditorium
planning project.
