The document discusses various architectural considerations for planning a hotel project, including: 1. It discusses factors for determining the space requirements for guest rooms, public facilities, support facilities, and hotel administration. 2. It explains the differences between carpet area, plinth area, and super built area, and how they relate to one another based on readings from blueprints regarding plumbing, electrical, AC, ventilation, floor space index, and floor area ratio. 3. It mentions that the document will also cover approximate construction costs, operating areas for different hotel types, and estimating water, electrical, gas, and ventilation requirements.

12.  It’s a document setting out the nature of the activity
proposed and the justification for selection and
commitment of resources to the activity.
 It has following details:
1. Location and land
2. Plant and machinery
3. Raw materials
4. Cost of project
5. Marketing arrangements
6. Sources of finance
7. Government consent
 Every single aspect of the project should be
considered.

13. It is a series of drawings showing the layout of
the parts of the building : rooms, their sizes
and shapes ,doors, windows .
 Should convey all technical details to its
reader.
 Made by Architect
Purpose : 1) act as basic talking point.
2) Conveys detailed information.
3) Helps plumbers , electricians , a/v
mechanics , gas pipe mechanics to do their
job to the precision.

14.  Can be used to check the performance.
 Can be used to determine the quantity of
materials required.
 Can be used to determine the manpower
required.
 Can be used as tool in energy management.

15. Types of blue
prints :7

16. Plain view

17. serve as a vital communication link between the architect and
the builder.
all detailed views of interior walls, locations of equipment is
mentioned.

18. helps in deciding how the exterior wall would be done up

19. It’s a 3D view of a proposed
building. the purpose is to help the
onlookers visualize and place
themselves .

20. It may be vertical horizontal
view of a wall, roof or
foundation of the building
It is the critical view.
Indicates the types of
construction material to be used

21. Special set of symbols for every mechanical setting
Eg: system of air conditioning, cctv, plumbing etc..

22.  Show legal boundaries of the properties.

24. •covered area of a building measured at floor level of any
storey.
•Excluding courtyard, balcony, cantilever projection.
•Also called as Built up area

25.  Total area of floor in between walls.
 Includes all rooms, verandah, passage,
corridors, staircase, entrance hall, kitchen ,
store, bath area.
 Floor area = Plinth area – area occupied by
the walls
 Sills of door, openings , area occupied by
walls ,pillars , plasters, &other immediate
supports are not included.
 Each storey has its separated floor area.

27.  Calculated by =
Total covered areas of all floors
plot area
 In other words, total building square foot
divided by site size sq. foot

28.  Total floor area of the buildings on a certain
location : the size of the land of that
location.

31.  It is the useful area or liveable or letable
area.
 Total floor area minus circulation area.
 Office – useable area
 Residential buildings – liveable area minus
other areas which are not used for living
purpose .

32.  It is the area of verandah, passage, corridor,
balconies, entrance hall, porches and
staircases .
 Divided in to 2 parts:
1. Vertical area: areas occupied by staircases,
lifts which requires vertical movement of
the user. (4%-5% of building).
2. Horizontal area : areas of verandah,
passages, corridors, balconies, porch
etc.which requires horizontal movement of
the user.(10% -15% of the building).

33. Super Built Up Area is the built up area plus
proportionate area of common areas such as
