Sustainable Development in ArchitectureGargi Bhatele
The beginning of the presentation explains what is sustainable architecture, followed by case studies on examples of buildings built using sustainable architecture techniques. Buildings included in the presentation are, Oasia Hotel Singapore, ITC Maurya Hotel New Delhi, and Dixin Water Foundation Texas.
Fortune Select Trinity hotel is a commercial establishment that is highly dependent on tanker water. This makes water expensive for them. They also lack water security as they are completely at the mercy of tanker water providers. In an effort to secure their future water needs, the hotel has turned to rainwater harvesting as a sustainable solution to this problem. This case study looks at how and to what extent they have been successful in this endeavour.
The first five-star hotel in India as well as in Asia to win the Ecotel Certification is Hotel Orchid. It's owned by Kamat Hotels (India) Limited or KHIL. To date, it has received over a hundred awards in recognition of the commitment to be a truly world-class Eco-friendly hotel. So, how it managed to do this and what are the initiatives it has taken to achieve this feat. Want to know?
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

4. OVERVIEW
Paying tribute to the great Mauryan dynasty, ITC Maurya showcases Mauryan Architecture. The
hotel uses a signature ‘East meets West’ style of Mauryan diplomacy that combines a historic
aura with contemporary facilities to create a luxury hotel experience.
Fittingly, the 438-room property is situated in the Capital’s exclusive Enclave in Chanakyapuri, in
close proximity to President’s Estate. The hotel has long been the favoured accommodation of
heads of state, royalty and business leaders from across the world. The various suites are named
after famous personalities from the Mauryan age that include the Chanakya Grand Presidential
Suite, The Chandragupta Presidential Suite & many more. While the interiors of these suites
provide a whiff of the Gupta Empire, the polished marble, carved teaks, stone, & iron caste
structures define the Mauryan period.
6. ECO-TOURISM
Eco-Tourism, by definition, places emphasis on energy, conservation, ecology & community. ITC
Maurya has come to be known as the “Greenest Luxury Hotel Chain In The World,” with all its 10
premium Luxury Hotels LEED (Leadership In Energy & Environmental Design) Platinum Certified.
ITC Maurya Hotels, India’s premium hospitality chain has successfully incorporated its philosophy
of “Responsible Luxury” – combining elements of luxury & environment-friendly operations.
The LEED Platinum Rating has been awarded on account of the hotel’s environment best practices
such as energy efficiency, water efficiency, sustainable site development, indoor environment
quality, sustainable materials & purchasing.
9. ENERGY EFFICIENCY
ITC Maurya uses 23% less energy than USGBC’s national average for large size Luxury Hotels.
Usage of Solar Thermal system for hot water & low pressure steam application.
Usage of non-ozone depleting gases for refrigeration.
Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system, Thermal system, Water management
system & Building Management System underwent retro-commissioning to enhance
performance efficiencies.
11. WATER EFFICIENCY
Sensor operated & waterless urinals, dual flush Water Closets have reduced the water
consumption by 33% against USGBC standards.
Only treated recycled water is used for landscape, cooling tower & miscellaneous cleaning
resulting in further reduction of water consumption.
Excess treated recycled water is given to Government Bodies for irrigation of landscapes,
gardens & forests.
Reduced water demand in Cooling Tower through automation.
13. SUSTAINABLE SITE DEVELOPMENT
87% of associates travel by either public transport or use pooled vehicles.
The hotel’s rain water harvesting capacity, is 30% of the peak rainfall. This helps in reducing
water demand & run-off.
Steps have been taken to protect the ecological stability of the immediate surroundings &
landscape.
The building consciously promotes cultivation of native plants (covering more than 25% of
building area).
Over 75% of roof area is covered with a special paint that has a high Solar Reflective Index,
thereby reducing the cooling demand.
Exterior hardscape is maintained without use of chemicals.
15. INDOOR ENVIRONMENT QUALITY
Increased treated fresh air infusion for higher human productivity and better health.
Enhanced occupant thermal comfort.
Green Seal certified Housekeeping chemicals and equipment.
Mechanical means of elimination of rodents and use of eco-responsible pesticides.
17. SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS & PURCHASING
More than 50% of ongoing consumables used at ITC Maurya are either local or recycled. Low VOC
(Volatile Organic Compounds) paints & FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified wood is used
for refurbishments & renovations.
More than 30% of the food & beverage used is harvested & processed locally within 160
kilometres of the hotel.
Usage of LED lamps that are energy efficient & no mercury content.
More than 99% of the total solid waste is either reused or recycled through Recycling programs
or converted into manure by Organic Waste Converter.
20. INITIATIVES
ITC Maurya consumed an average of 1300 kilolitres of water, per day some ten years ago. The
average consumption was down to 800 kilolitres until a couple of years ago. Today, the hotel
consumes 625 kilolitres of water on an average & is striving to bring the consumption level down
to an ambitious 450 kilolitres of water per day. There was a time when the chillers, one of the
major consumption areas in the hotel, used to consume 300 kilolitres of water, which has now
been brought down to 150 kilolitres. The figure looks all the more impressive, considering the fact
that water is becoming such a precious commodity.
21. WATER POSITIVE FACILITY
Today, ITC Maurya boasts of being a water-positive facility. It is able to generate more water than it
consumes. Net water consumption across various ITC facilities in 2003-04 was 8.44 million
kilolitres & the total potential created through RWH (Rain Water Harvesting) was 16.06 million
kilolitres.
“The hotel has minimised consumption of water, energy & all other natural resources. We comply
with all the environmental legislation & the effort is not just to reduce, reuse & recycle the
resources consumed by the facility, but to surpass the set benchmark. The key to our strategy is
sensitisation, conservation & water table enhancement”, says Dipak Haksar, Vice President -
Operations, ITC Ltd – Hotels Division & General Manager - ITC Maurya.
22. RAIN WATER HARVESTING
ITC Maurya affected a Rain Water Harvesting (RWH) system backed by some state-of-the-art
innovative techniques & technologies some two years ago. At the time, when the hotel was
introduced to RWH system at an investment of about Rs. 20 lakh, its seven bore wells were
drawing water from 85 to 90 feet underground. In little less than two years, the water table has
witnessed drastic recharge in the area around the hotel & the bore wells today have to draw water
up to 35 - 40 feet under the ground.
Apart from recharging the water table, it has also provided critical irrigation to moisture starved
surrounding areas. At the same time, the hotel has also reduced its dependency on bore wells, by
reducing its overall water consumption.
23. RAIN WATER HARVESTING
Half of the water requirement is met by New Delhi Municipal Corporation (NDMC). “Our revised
target is to further reduce our water consumption to 450 kilolitres”, says Haksar. If this target is
achieved, it will mean a whopping 50 per cent reduction compared to the amount of water it used
to draw a couple of years ago.
26. WATER CONSERVATION MEASURES
Internal water audits are carried out to highlight high consumption areas & an action plan is
formed to restrict the same.
The company has installed water meters to track water consumption.
In order to save pumping energy & for water bifurcation, the waterline is bifurcated into lower
head & higher head requirements.
Pressure reducing valves have been introduced in lines, which have low pressure requirements.
Flow restrictors/aerators are introduced at all guest rooms (in wash basins & shower fittings).
W/Cs cisterns, with dual flushing arrangement is used in place of conventional flush valves.
Treated effluent discharged from ETP is utilised for horticultural purposes and cooling towers.
27. WATER CONSERVATION MEASURES
Occupancy sensors are used for all guest bathrooms & public areas.
Enhancement of ETP to STP plant with energy efficient pumps
Chilled water flow for the all AHUs & TFAs is adjusted by the use of two way valves in the
pipeline Depending on the load, the two way valves adjust the flow of water through the coils.
