residential building, public buildings, parks, factories,
roads etc.
Land
Built up lands
Open lands

Elements of city plan (continued)
5Prof. Ashish Makwana
Circulation
• Requirements of ideal city road:
– Sufficient width to accommodate good traffic
without congestion of traffic
– Straight alignment
– Easy gradient
– Impervious and smooth wearing surface
– Rest on unyielding soil
– Smooth curves and properly designed junctions
– Good plantations on either side, parking spaces,
footpath etc.
• Circulation may be defined as the movement of traffic
within a city area. For a rapid growth of city, a good
network of roads is essential. The city roads are the
‘arteries’ of the city.
6Prof. Ashish Makwana
• Classification of Urban roads:
– Arterial roads (main roads)
– Sub-arterial roads
– Local roads
– Other roads
• Urban road systems:
– Rectangular or grid iron street system
– Concentric and radial street system
– Rectangular combined with diagonal street system
– Rectangular combined with radial street system
– Organic street system

Zoning
• Zoning is defined as the creation by law, of the sections
or zones such as residential, industrial, commercial,
civic, institutional and recreational in which the
regulations prevent misuse of lands and buildings and
limit their height and densities of population differing in
different zones.
12Prof. Ashish Makwana
Zoning (continued)
• Importance of zoning (Advantages):
– Zoning sets apart different areas in the town for
specific purposes. It prevent encroachment of one
zone upon another adjacent to it.
– Business or commercial areas are also separately
located with their garages and service stations at a
distance from the residential areas.
– The population is distributed throughout the town by
zoning regulation so that there is no concentration of
population in any one particular zone.
– Height zoning regulates the height of the buildings.
Hence, high rise buildings will not be allowed to
construct near small houses. 13Prof. Ashish Makwana
Zoning (continued)
• Importance of zoning (Advantages):
– A land in the form of recreational area is also set
aside for parks, play grounds, stadiums, theatres etc.
– Zoning helps proper co-ordination of various public
amenities like water supply, drainage, electricity,
transport etc.
– Zoning secures orderly growth of the town, promotes
health, safety and order.
– It increases utility, beauty, efficiency of the town.
– Chances of fire and consequent damages are almost
eliminated.
14Prof. Ashish Makwana
Zoning (continued)
• Objects of zoning:
– Zoning serves as a main tool to the town planner to
maintain future growth of the town as it was
envisaged originally.
– Zoning affords proper co-ordination of various public
amenities.
– Zoning makes T.P. scheme effective and successful.
15Prof. Ashish Makwana
Zoning (continued)
• Principles of zoning:
– Arrangement of zones
– Boundaries of each zone
– Flexibility
– New town
– Existing towns
16Prof. Ashish Makwana
Classification of zoning
(Aspect of zoning)
• Use zoning
– Residential zone
– Commercial zone
– Industrial zone
– Civic zone
– Institutional zone
– Recreational zone
• Height zoning
– Cubical contents of the building
– Width of streets and other marginal open spaces of buildings
• Density zoning
– Gross density
– Net density
17Prof. Ashish Makwana
Definition: Land Use
• Land use refers to “man’s activities on land, which are directly
related to the land”. Land cover denotes “the vegetation and
artificial constructions covering the land surface”.
• The Canadian Institute of Planners offers a definition that:
“Land use planning means the scientific, aesthetic, and
orderly disposition of land, resources, facilities and services
with a view to securing the physical, economic and social
efficiency, health and well-being of urban and rural
communities”.
18Prof. Ashish Makwana
LAND USE
• Land use pattern in India represents the physical
characteristics of land, the institutional and other
resources framework like labour, capital available.
• India-Total land area - 328 million hectares
• land utilisation statistics - 93 % (around 306 million
hectares)
19Prof. Ashish Makwana
LAND USE
Reporting Land and Non-Reporting Land
• The land, for which the data on classification of land-
use is available, is regarded as reporting land.
Cultivable Land and Uncultivable Land
• According to the available land use statistics, there has
been a slight increase in the net sown area. Almost 28
million hectares have been added over the passing few
decades. Nearly 5 percent of the land falls in the
category of uncultivated land.
20Prof. Ashish Makwana
Housing
• Housing is one of the three basic necessities (food, cloth,
home) of life and is thus primary unit of human habitation.
• Demand of houses (factors)
– Growth of population
– Increased urbanisation
– Town planning and environmental conditions
– Availability of cheap finances
– Availability of good construction materials
– Availability of skilled labour
– Availability of good transport facilities
– Availability of well developed plots at reasonable prices
– Rate of interest on investment
– Government policy to finance housing schemes on easy loans
– Climatic conditions
21Prof. Ashish Makwana
Urban Patterns
• Urban pattern may be defined as the two dimensional
geometrical shape of a city in which the city has grown in
the past.
• Major urban patterns
– Satellite pattern
– Radiocentric pattern
– Linear pattern
– Star pattern
– Ring pattern
– Sheet pattern

Landscape Architecture
• Landscaping is an art of planning the drives, walks,
lawns, shrubs, flowerbed, trees, etc. so as to form a
beautiful setting for a building.
29Prof. Ashish Makwana
30Prof. Ashish Makwana
Purposes of Landscape Architecture
• In over crowded town with high densities of population, the
landscape architecture decorates the town with parks, gardens,
recreational open spaces, tree-lined avenues and streets.
• The proper landscaping imparts beauty and it results into a good
setting of the buildings.
• The provision of trees in a town results into many practical
advantages like
– The trees relieve eye strain
– Reduce glare on paving surfaces
– Lowers street temperatures
– Absorbs carbon dioxide and give oxygen
– Act as wind breaker
– Provide shade during summer, etc.
• The urban landscaping is intended for developing an agreeable,
cheerful, pleasant and attractive environment. 31Prof. Ashish Makwana

Master Plan
• A master plan may be defined as a general plan for the future
layout of a city. It shows both existing and proposed streets,
open spaces, public buildings etc.
Objects of Master plan:
• It serves as an overall picture and programme for the future
development of the town.
• It helps in intelligent use of public funds for achieving good
amenities, convenience and health of the inhabitants.
• It helps in restricting the haphazard and unplanned growth of
town.
• It places various functions which a town has to perform in
physical relationship of each other so as to avoid the chances of
mutual conflict.
33Prof. Ashish Makwana
Necessity of master plan:
• To control the growth of various industries in a systematic
way.
• To discourage the growth of town in an unplanned and
unscientific way.
• To give a perspective picture of a fully developed town.
• To limit to a certain extent the unprecedented flow of rural
population to the urban area.
• To show the evils which may crop up due to over crowding of
the population.
34Prof. Ashish Makwana
Data to be collected:
• Geological condition of the site
• Land values and land use pattern
• Meteorological details such as rainfall, temperature, intensity and
direction of wind.
• Local mineral resources
• Places of historical, cultural and scientific importance
• Places of natural picnic spots and landscape features
• Location of features like river, sea, lake, hillocks, etc.
• Economic conditions of the people and authority
• Transport facilities

etc.
36Prof. Ashish Makwana
Features of master plan
Population
• Based on present population and the rate of population
growth, the population after next thirty to fifty years is
calculated.
Density
• After population forecast density of population is decided for
various areas like town centre, suburb, peripheral area etc. as
per the required standards.
Land requirement
• In the next step, the total land required for the anticipated
population is worked out.
Land distribution
• The total available land has to be distributed for the different
land uses. 37Prof. Ashish Makwana
Town centre
• A town centre is a central place of a town where people meet
for various purposes like business, civic activities, shopping, etc.

– Demand stores
– Conveniences stores
– Impulse stores
• Civic centres
• Light shopping centres
– Departmental store
– Shopping street
– Market 38Prof. Ashish Makwana
Town Planning Scheme
• In Gujarat first town planning act was implemented in 1915.
This provided for planning of small areas around the city,
which is growing for growth through town planning schemes.
This act was modified in 1954, providing preparation of
master plan for the entire city.
• Urban Planning process in Gujarat is a two step process and is
described in the GTPUDA and its rules. The first step is to
prepare a ‘Development Plan for the entire city. The second
step is to prepare ‘Town Panning Schemes’ for smaller
portions of the development area for which the DP is
prepared.

  • 2. PRESENTATION OUTLINE… • Elements of city plan • Circulation – Classification of Urban Roads – Urban road systems • Zoning • Classification of zoning (Aspect of zoning) • Land use – Land use structure 2Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 3. PRESENTATION OUTLINE… • Housing – The housing issue – Types of housing • Urban patterns • Landscape Architecture • Master Plan • Town centre • Town planning scheme • Central business district (CBD) • Public utility services 3Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 4. Elements of city plan • All the individual objects that are included in an urban area are the elements of city plan. These objects include residential building, public buildings, parks, factories, roads etc. Land Built up lands Open lands • Town generally consists of the following: – Town centre – Suburbs – Industrial areas – Road network – Open spaces 4Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 5. • The main elements of city plan are: • Built up areas • Communication • Open areas • Public utility services • Public amenities Elements of city plan (continued) 5Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 6. Circulation • Requirements of ideal city road: – Sufficient width to accommodate good traffic without congestion of traffic – Straight alignment – Easy gradient – Impervious and smooth wearing surface – Rest on unyielding soil – Smooth curves and properly designed junctions – Good plantations on either side, parking spaces, footpath etc. • Circulation may be defined as the movement of traffic within a city area. For a rapid growth of city, a good network of roads is essential. The city roads are the ‘arteries’ of the city. 6Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 7. • Classification of Urban roads: – Arterial roads (main roads) – Sub-arterial roads – Local roads – Other roads • Urban road systems: – Rectangular or grid iron street system – Concentric and radial street system – Rectangular combined with diagonal street system – Rectangular combined with radial street system – Organic street system Circulation (continued) 7Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 8. Rectangular or grid iron street system 8Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 9. Concentric and radial street system 9Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 10. Rectangular combined with diagonal street system10Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 11. Rectangular combined with radial street system 11Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 12. Zoning • Zoning is defined as the creation by law, of the sections or zones such as residential, industrial, commercial, civic, institutional and recreational in which the regulations prevent misuse of lands and buildings and limit their height and densities of population differing in different zones. 12Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 13. Zoning (continued) • Importance of zoning (Advantages): – Zoning sets apart different areas in the town for specific purposes. It prevent encroachment of one zone upon another adjacent to it. – Business or commercial areas are also separately located with their garages and service stations at a distance from the residential areas. – The population is distributed throughout the town by zoning regulation so that there is no concentration of population in any one particular zone. – Height zoning regulates the height of the buildings. Hence, high rise buildings will not be allowed to construct near small houses. 13Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 14. Zoning (continued) • Importance of zoning (Advantages): – A land in the form of recreational area is also set aside for parks, play grounds, stadiums, theatres etc. – Zoning helps proper co-ordination of various public amenities like water supply, drainage, electricity, transport etc. – Zoning secures orderly growth of the town, promotes health, safety and order. – It increases utility, beauty, efficiency of the town. – Chances of fire and consequent damages are almost eliminated. 14Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 15. Zoning (continued) • Objects of zoning: – Zoning serves as a main tool to the town planner to maintain future growth of the town as it was envisaged originally. – Zoning affords proper co-ordination of various public amenities. – Zoning makes T.P. scheme effective and successful. 15Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 16. Zoning (continued) • Principles of zoning: – Arrangement of zones – Boundaries of each zone – Flexibility – New town – Existing towns 16Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 17. Classification of zoning (Aspect of zoning) • Use zoning – Residential zone – Commercial zone – Industrial zone – Civic zone – Institutional zone – Recreational zone • Height zoning – Cubical contents of the building – Width of streets and other marginal open spaces of buildings • Density zoning – Gross density – Net density 17Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 18. Definition: Land Use • Land use refers to “man’s activities on land, which are directly related to the land”. Land cover denotes “the vegetation and artificial constructions covering the land surface”. • The Canadian Institute of Planners offers a definition that: “Land use planning means the scientific, aesthetic, and orderly disposition of land, resources, facilities and services with a view to securing the physical, economic and social efficiency, health and well-being of urban and rural communities”. 18Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 19. LAND USE • Land use pattern in India represents the physical characteristics of land, the institutional and other resources framework like labour, capital available. • India-Total land area - 328 million hectares • land utilisation statistics - 93 % (around 306 million hectares) 19Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 20. LAND USE Reporting Land and Non-Reporting Land • The land, for which the data on classification of land- use is available, is regarded as reporting land. Cultivable Land and Uncultivable Land • According to the available land use statistics, there has been a slight increase in the net sown area. Almost 28 million hectares have been added over the passing few decades. Nearly 5 percent of the land falls in the category of uncultivated land. 20Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 21. Housing • Housing is one of the three basic necessities (food, cloth, home) of life and is thus primary unit of human habitation. • Demand of houses (factors) – Growth of population – Increased urbanisation – Town planning and environmental conditions – Availability of cheap finances – Availability of good construction materials – Availability of skilled labour – Availability of good transport facilities – Availability of well developed plots at reasonable prices – Rate of interest on investment – Government policy to finance housing schemes on easy loans – Climatic conditions 21Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 22. Urban Patterns • Urban pattern may be defined as the two dimensional geometrical shape of a city in which the city has grown in the past. • Major urban patterns – Satellite pattern – Radiocentric pattern – Linear pattern – Star pattern – Ring pattern – Sheet pattern 22Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 23. Satellite pattern 23Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 29. Landscape Architecture • Landscaping is an art of planning the drives, walks, lawns, shrubs, flowerbed, trees, etc. so as to form a beautiful setting for a building. 29Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 31. Purposes of Landscape Architecture • In over crowded town with high densities of population, the landscape architecture decorates the town with parks, gardens, recreational open spaces, tree-lined avenues and streets. • The proper landscaping imparts beauty and it results into a good setting of the buildings. • The provision of trees in a town results into many practical advantages like – The trees relieve eye strain – Reduce glare on paving surfaces – Lowers street temperatures – Absorbs carbon dioxide and give oxygen – Act as wind breaker – Provide shade during summer, etc. • The urban landscaping is intended for developing an agreeable, cheerful, pleasant and attractive environment. 31Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 32. Continuous park system Selection of trees Size of trees Standard of living Street trees Salient features of landscape architecture 32Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 33. Master Plan • A master plan may be defined as a general plan for the future layout of a city. It shows both existing and proposed streets, open spaces, public buildings etc. Objects of Master plan: • It serves as an overall picture and programme for the future development of the town. • It helps in intelligent use of public funds for achieving good amenities, convenience and health of the inhabitants. • It helps in restricting the haphazard and unplanned growth of town. • It places various functions which a town has to perform in physical relationship of each other so as to avoid the chances of mutual conflict. 33Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 34. Necessity of master plan: • To control the growth of various industries in a systematic way. • To discourage the growth of town in an unplanned and unscientific way. • To give a perspective picture of a fully developed town. • To limit to a certain extent the unprecedented flow of rural population to the urban area. • To show the evils which may crop up due to over crowding of the population. 34Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 35. Data to be collected: • Geological condition of the site • Land values and land use pattern • Meteorological details such as rainfall, temperature, intensity and direction of wind. • Local mineral resources • Places of historical, cultural and scientific importance • Places of natural picnic spots and landscape features • Location of features like river, sea, lake, hillocks, etc. • Economic conditions of the people and authority • Transport facilities • Trade and communication • Water supply and drainage arrangement • Political awareness of the area • Total population to be served 35Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 36. Maps to be prepared: • Present and proposed communication • Present and proposed open areas • Residential areas • Important public buildings, civic centre • Public amenities • Public utility services • Contour map of the town • Open spaces, parks and playgrounds • Position of rivers, lakes • Landscaped features • Types of land such as residential, agricultural and industrial etc. 36Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 37. Features of master plan Population • Based on present population and the rate of population growth, the population after next thirty to fifty years is calculated. Density • After population forecast density of population is decided for various areas like town centre, suburb, peripheral area etc. as per the required standards. Land requirement • In the next step, the total land required for the anticipated population is worked out. Land distribution • The total available land has to be distributed for the different land uses. 37Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 38. Town centre • A town centre is a central place of a town where people meet for various purposes like business, civic activities, shopping, etc. It should be near to the central bus station, railway station, etc. Types: • Business centres – Demand stores – Conveniences stores – Impulse stores • Civic centres • Light shopping centres – Departmental store – Shopping street – Market 38Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 39. Town Planning Scheme • In Gujarat first town planning act was implemented in 1915. This provided for planning of small areas around the city, which is growing for growth through town planning schemes. This act was modified in 1954, providing preparation of master plan for the entire city. • Urban Planning process in Gujarat is a two step process and is described in the GTPUDA and its rules. The first step is to prepare a ‘Development Plan for the entire city. The second step is to prepare ‘Town Panning Schemes’ for smaller portions of the development area for which the DP is prepared. 39Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 40. Central Business District • The Central Business District is the town centre where most business and commerce is located. • Characteristics of CBD – Land values are very high – Tallest buildings – Shortage of car parking space – High density of day time pedestrians – Dominated by business office space and retail – Limited horizontal development 40Prof. Ashish Makwana
  • 41. Public Utility Services • Hospitals • Fire stations • Parks and play grounds • Electricity • Public buildings • Public transport system – roads, streets • Markets and shopping centre • Gas supply • Water supply • Sewerage • Refuse disposal 41Prof. Ashish Makwana
