Gross leasable areas vary, many infilling centers fall
within 25 000 and 50 000 m2 GLA providing 40 to
100 units. New regional centers may provide up to
100 000 m2 GLA with 40 per cent allocated to large
space users (magnets).
Magnets (Hyper Market, Department store,
food court, Cinema or Entertaining zone)
are sited near the ends of malls and branches to
attract flows of shoppers past individual shops and
have an effective range of 90 to 120 m. It is not
practical to extend a mall more than 350 m

it should be deflected via a deflection mirror.
14. Cinema design & layout
The main hall
1-The amount of space required for each auditorium depends on a number of factors but
the figures below provide an approximate guide. The calculations are based on a modern
design using 1.10â1.20 metres from seat back to seat back and 550 â 600mm seat widths.
ďˇ 200 seats: 270m² / 2,900 ft2
ďˇ 150 seats: 190m² / 2,000 ft2
ďˇ 75 seats: 125 m² / 1,350 ft2

Angle A : shifting position to look between heads
of row immediately in front of spectators over

⢠the most important elements
and play a big role in the
success or failure of the
project .
⢠You must achieve greater
comfort for users and higher
efficiency in use .
22. Circulation
Horizontal movement: -
- should lead ends of the trade corridor to the
elements of attraction marketing center.
- the height of corridors and passageways
shall be not less than 2.4 m.
-- It should not exceed the commercial
corridor of 250 meters and only shopper
will feel bored by the length of the
commercial corridor.

be written as straight in Velizy, Paris
center or written broken-shaped "L" or
by letter T or circular lobby surrounded
internal Mall.

Vertical motion: -
the stairs:-
- The account number and it displays
the stairs of entries and exits to
delete a number of 33% for the
shelves and tables.
- 15 people is calculated for an area
of ââ70 m2.
- Diverge stairs houses a distance of
25-30 m.
- It can be used in drawers at the
same time such as the inclusion
escape, as observed in the
construction.
-- To be fire-resistant and resistant to
external factors.
-- Providing a range of services
including the elevators near the
bathrooms.
- Handrails shall be of a height not
less than 1000 mm and not
exceeding 1200 mm. There
shall be provisions of balusters
with maximum gap of 150 mm.
24. Circulation
-Pressurization of Staircases (Protected Escape Routes)
Pressurization is a method adopted for protected
escape routes against ingress of smoke, especially in
high-rise buildings. In pressurization, air is injected
into the staircases, lobbies or corridors, to raise their
pressure slightly above the pressure in adjacent parts
of the building. As a result, ingress of smoke or toxic
gases into the escape routes will be prevented.
ARRANGEMENT OF EXITS:-
Exits shall be so located that the travel, distance
on the floor shall not exceed the distance of 30m. In
case of all mercantile building.
25. Circulation
Escalators:-
- Be necessary for the performance of 200 people per hour, and placed in the center of
the building and visually since the entrance and an inclination of 30, so that the
full-length features, speed and security, and the depth of the stairs 0.40 meters and
width of 0.60 meters and a speed of 0.5 m / s
26. Circulation
Inclined conveyors:-
- The transport of goods purchased by customers such as chairs and
strollers easily And disadvantages of belt conveyors it is possible to
be too long a degree far greater
than the escalator and to avoid
steep or severe tilt.
27. Circulation

main types:
⢠Lifts public and commercial purposes.
⢠elevators of residential buildings.
⢠Lifts official bodies and government departments.
⢠Lifts stores.
