5. SPACE FRAMES
A VERY SIMPLE AND EFFECTIVE WELDED JOINT IS USED AT THE NODES OF THE SPACE FRAME. THE
SALIENT FEATURE OF THIS WELDED JOINT IS THAT IT AVOIDS BUTT WELDING AND A SERIES OF
COMBINATION OF MEMBERS ARE POSSIBLE.

12. LOW- COST HOUSING , NEW OKHLA
Built as a catenary, this forms for an efficient roofing system.
Built in 1970s, this structure is one of the first built in present-day Noida.

•BAFFLING OF WALLS
•DIAGONAL BONDING
EARTHQUAKE RESISTANT STRUCTURES

14. The built form is the
single largest factor
influencing the human
mind.
The Architect has the
most powerful tool
available to him in
being the master of the
built form he conceives.
Ornamentation in
ceilings was not a mere
coincidence – they dealt
with subconscious.

21. The sedimentary stone has traditionally been used
for
long span structures.
The architectural principles in sedimentary stone
bearing areas were designed for tension.

23. BUILDING AND BUILDING RELATED ACTIVITY:
LARGEST CONSUMER OF RESOURCES
WHETHER IT IS MATERIALS, CAPTIAL, OR
ENERGY
CAUSES THE LARGEST AMOUNT OF
ENVIRONMENTAL DEGRADATION
LARGEST PROGENTORS OF WASTE OUTPUT,
FOR E.G. , CONSTRUCTION DEBRIS, ETC.
SECOND ONLY TO AGRICULTURE IN
PROVIDING EMPLOYMENT FOR THE MAXIMUM
NUMBER OF PROPLE
THE BUILDING INDUSTRY ACCOUNTS FOR
NEARLY 50% OF THE GNP OF MOST NATIONS

TRADITIONAL SETTLEMENTS ON
HIGHLANDS

30. ROADS REQUIRE MINIMUM SLOPE, DRAINS
REQUIRE THE MAXIMUM SLOPE AND YET WE
PUT THEM TOGETHER-
A MAJOR CONTRADICTION !
WHY USE A 20 LITRES CISTERN TO DISPOSE 100 -
200 gm OF NIGHT SOIL IN A CENTRALISED
SEWAGE DISPOSAL SYSTEM?
WHY ARE KITCHEN - BATH WASTE AND SOIL
WASTE PIPES LAID SEPARATELY AND
DISCHARGED IN THE SAME MANHOLE?

31. TRADITIONAL 20 LITRE CISTERN OF THE BRITISH RAJ, BASED ON
WATER REQUIRED TO FLUSH NEWSPAPER, THAT WAS USED AS TOILET
PAPER.
ONE MIXES THE KITCHEN AND BATH WASTE WITH THE SEWAGE AND
RENDERS THE NON PATHOGENIC WATER PATHOGENIC
AND THEN WORKS OUT SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANTS WHERE
EXCESSIVE WATER IS THE MAIN PROBLEM.
DECENTRALISED SEWAGE DISPOSAL

33. "If history proves to be right, the high rise
building boom could simply be a reflection
of a misallocation of capital, which may
result in an economic correction in the next
five years,"
Andrew Lawrence of Barclay's
New York, U.S. Toronto, Canada
Mumbai, IndiaDelhi , India
Dubai, U.A.E.
Tokyo, Japan
IS HIGH-RISE THE
WAY TO GO???
Surprising as it may seem countries with the lowest density
have the highest
high rise.

35. CLUSTER PLANNING
ALTERNATE 1ALTERNATE 1
EACH PLOT CAN BE DIVIDED INTO 25
SQUARES OUT OF WHICH MAXIMUM
OF 13 SQUARES CAN BE BUILT
ESSENTIALLY LEAVING THE CENTRAL
SQUARE OPEN FOR VENTILATION.
ALTERNATE 2ALTERNATE 2
SAME BYE - LAW AS ABOVE CAN BE
APPLIED ON A DIAGONAL GRID
(DIAGONAL WITH RESPECT TO
THEPLOT).BUILDINGON DIAGONAL
GRIDALLOWS FOR MORE
FLEXIBILITY.
ALL ENTRIES CAN
BECHANGED.TOSUITINDIVIDUALS
FROM THE VASTU POINT OF VIEW
WHICH REQUIRE NORTH, NORTH -
EAST OR EAST ENTRY. CROSS BREEZE
FROM ALL DIRECTIONS CAN BE
TAPPED AND VERY EFFECTIVE
VENTURI ACTION WOULD
BEEXPERIENCED.

36. WHEN THE
UNITS ARE
PLACED
STRAIGHT ON
THE PLOT, WE
SIMPLY GET A
GREEN SET
BACK FOR EACH
INDIVIDUAL
UNIT.
WHEN THE
SAME UNITS
ARE PLACED
DIAGONALLY
ON THE SAME
PLOT, WE CAN
GET A HUGE
MULTI USABLE
CENTRAL
AREA.
