K.V.Parmeshwar : : : : : : : : : : : The objective of the project was to detail and resolve in Structural Steel, a part of the School building (designed in RCC). The brief of redesigning a concrete structure in Steel was challenging. The use of steel sections was done considering the functions of the selected areas. The foundation is of Reinforced Cement Concrete footing. The stilt area in the ground floor has cylindrical columns (fixed onto the concrete pedestals) to reduce the risk of injury to the children while they play and interact in the space. The slab is made up of ISMB Sections used as beams, joists and binders, steel decking sheets and RCC, making it a composite slab. The first floor has box sections as columns for classroom spaces and cylindrical sections for corridors. A steel staircase connects the two levels which expands when it approaches the first floor. The roof being butterfly shaped required the use of a truss which has been designed using angle sections, along with roofing sheets and a gutter at the valleys to facilitate easy drainage of rainwater. A Steel and Glass railing protects the students from falling of the corridors while having minimum compromise on the view. Use of steel makes the structure lightweight and easier to construct than RCC. Structural drawings in steel 3

Steel and concrete act together to increase the structure's strength that withstands the induced forces. The exercise conducted was to verify this theory. Here, two similar concrete slabs were made. Wire mesh, which acts as a reinforcement, is added in one of the concrete slabs, and the other one remains without it. These slabs are then dropped from a height of 5 feet where the reinforced slab remained intact, whereas the other one shattered into fragments. This activity proves that the steel provides the tensile strength needed for the concrete and secures the construction firmly. P.O.P: trials to assess

Changing needs of society, scarcity of material and environmental impact of producing and demolishing buildings are significant considerations for the designers throughout the world. Buildings today need to be perceived as impermanent and as material banks for the future. By adopting the outlook of impermanence, a building can be designed to reduce waste and use materials efficiently at all stages (construction, operation and end of life) as it addresses possible changes in circumstances. An impermanent outlook to architecture compels us to think of resource minimization, optimization and management. Obsolescence is inevitable, but its effects can be softened by designing buildings that are flexible and that consider the end of life. Such buildings are not only beneficial to the environment and future generations but also the purse of the present user. The dissertation states that sustainability lies in considering the embodied energy and operational energy of the building and its components. The building uses lesser resources throughout its lifespan by designing an efficient structure, climate efficient design, flexible planning to address change, detachable and reusable components, and reducing maintenance by separating different functional spaces and components of the building. After reduce, a building should be designed with the objectives of reuse and recycle in mind. Here material selection and joining become of paramount importance. The design focuses on using and detailing materials that can easily be reused or recycled at the end of the building's or components life to ensure a reduction in waste and optimization of resources for future generations. For this aspect vast research of various materials and their life cycle impact was studied and applied.

Narrative: The proposal is a prison with the idea of Rehabilitation and not Imprisonment. This particular module is designed specifically to isolate these prisoners from everyone. The site is in a completely distant area.Isolation leads to self-introspection and helps recreate their identity. Community living helps them to live around people and this new culture will help them adjust to normalcy later in life. Practising self-sufficiency like farming, cooking, cleaning will help them become independent and various other activities allow them to explore their interests. By reimagining such a facility, the structure exposes the users to a visual treat of the horizon, above water and below water. The multifaceted and dynamic form of the structure has been inspired by human swimming, how the balance and the movement in the structure have been done using alternate massing and motion. The courtyard has been provided to allow inmates to fish from within the structure negating the risk of escape. The use of scanning passages reduces the workload of the guards. Considering the encouragement of the inmates in various activities and duties of guards, the structure is made self-sustainable by the users themselves. In order to avoid tracking the inmates and avoiding their escapes, the structure is always in motion.

The Character Of The Facade And The Overall Form Gets Highlighted At Such An Angle. The Textures And Colors Used Brings Out The Connection Of The Spaces And Interlocking Surfaces, And Creates A Common Identity For The Form. The Sciography Creates A Sense Of Volume And Adds A Layer Of Dimension That Otherwise Would Not Be Grasped. The Second Illustration Shows The Representation Of Bernard Tschumi’s Style For The Form Which Is Generated Through Multiplication Mode Of Elements. The Structural System And Planning Is Focused In Foreground And The Lines Moving Creates An Illusion Of Continuity And Sense Of Curiosity In Space.

Teja Gavankar : : : : : : : : : : : The exercise involved studying the relationship between the human body and its movement in space. That is understanding how space shapes our movement and how movement, in turn, affects space. The Renaissance painting here is of St. Augustine, which was recreated to record the movement of the body in space. This was further analyzed through a set of technical drawings, which helped understand the anthropometry of the human body. The angle of vision at which the person in the painting is viewing, the required distance of the body from the table, and standard measurements of the furniture around it with respect to the movement of the body were studied and recorded. Further, these body postures were perceived as an interaction with the cityscape in the modern-day era. Scenarios like a doctor in his cabin, a watchman seated by the gate, a commuter waiting for the train, a person by the balcony enjoying a cup of tea, a student working on the laptop, or a person taking shelter from the rain were some examples. The drawings of Philip Steadman were used as a reference to create these drawings. Previous Next Body And Movement In Space 1

Every household and every resident of each city and town should make it their habit to segregate waste into Wet/ kitchen waste, Dry Domestic waste, and Hazardous Domestic waste. 1. Taking Dry waste, for instance, Dry waste can be easily reused and recycled hence there should be an encouragement to reuse and recycle this waste. 2. The domestic hazardous waste should be burnt and converted to energy and fuels instead of dumping them in landfills 3. The wet waste should be used to make the soil fertile using vermicomposting and not thrown in compost pits. These are some of how waste can be reduced, reused, and recycled Ek din ki CM

Narrative: Candies bring joy to our lives . With it’s Sweet and tangy filling, they make sure to put a smile on our faces. Dharavi candy proposes to induce a joyous and vibrantly interactive culture that aims at erasing the boundaries that do exist beyond this junction -pragmatically and inclusively. The structure is composed of flexible zones with materials like steel, tensile fabrics and corrugated aluminium panels. Adequate rain water harvesting and photovoltaic glass panels make the structure self-sustaining and more efficient. Like a candy, this structure gets unwrapped in layers. The flavours are felt more when one finds their own niche. The gap between these layers is narrowed as with time every process of the life of this place involves the residents of Dharavi merging and working together.
