2. SUSTAINABLE DESIGN
ROOF GARDEN
OVER BASEMENT
•Landscaping: A Micro climate has been setup by growing
trees, roof garden & vegetation around the buildings.
Heat absorbed by roof surface
•Exterior Roof Assembly: From outside to
inside, wall construction consists of 13mm
Broken China Mosaic,65mm Brick, 50mm
PUF (R-13), 9.5mm screed, waterproofing,
and 203mm” concrete slab on the interior.
•U-assembly = 0.064 Btu/h-ft2-F
•Windows: The window-to-wall ratio of the
proposed office building is 19.84%.
Building Envelope
•Exterior Wall Assembly: : From outside to inside, wall construction consists of 45
mm Stone cladding, 40 mm PUF {For South-East Wall(EWall3-C) 40 mm Cavity},
230 mm brick 15 mm cement mortar.
•U-assembly(For South -East) = 0.274 Btu/h-ft2-F
•U-assembly(For all other sides ) = 0.079 Btu/h-ft2-F
•Mud brick walls
are not painted.
CERAMIC TILES &
JIRAWAL GRANITE

Type Glazing
Window Properties Glazing- Double Clear

U-value (in Btu/h.ft2.ºF)

Visible Light Transmittance 71%
Solar Heat Gain Coefficient 0.51
Efficient interior lighting
•High SRI materials used on roof surface. •The luminaires are suspended 600mm below the ceiling level.
35®
NO LIGHT TRESSPASSES
•In plan, where the luminaire is placed parallel to the window the
maximum intensity beam is directed downwards at 30º (gamma)
It can be seen that the maximum intensity luminous beam intersects
the opaque surface and does not pass through the transparent or
translucent surface; hence no light trespassing is caused.
•The maximum candela value of all interior
lighting falls within the building (not out through
windows).

•Variable air volume (VAV) controlled fans were
provided.
•Restrooms are facilitated with an exhaust flow,
and staircases are naturally ventilated
Air Handling Unit
The position and size of the space for
air conditioning or air outlets has to be
checked
pipes near the manifold with a spacing of less than
15cm and pipes outside the chilled slab led in
corrugated pipe
Radiant slab
This system consists of running chilled water pipes
embedded in the ceiling slab. Sensible load cooling
using radiant chilled water pipes in the slab operating at
15– 19°C differential chilled water temp & latent load
using Air handling unit operating at 6.6 – 12.2°C
differential chilled water temp. 6.6°C chilled water shall
be produced by chiller and 15°C chilled water shall be
produced by using Heat exchanger having input water at
6.6°C from the chiller.

Control measures to prevent indoor air quality
problems during construction.
1. HVAC protection- properly covered up, remain free from dust & grime.
5. Scheduling- construction activities
over the duration of the project
minimize the impact on the indoor air
quality.
2.Source-Low toxicity is maintained by using low VOC complaint materials.
3. Pathway- Temporary barriers used to isolates area of work of construction.
4.Housekeeping-electrical panels should be covered with
water proofing covers to protect from water entry.
•Construction workers
are provided with
helmets.
•Low emitting materials used.
•Roll out mats at the entryways
minimize dirt and particulates
from entering the building.
Visual comfort-Daylighting
Indoor air quality •Sufficient Daylighting in all spaces.
Office/cabin Common room
•Indoor plantation to
improve air quality
indoors.
5. WATER
•Water efficient fixtures & fittings
• 50% water efficiency in air conditioning system
•Landscape which uses captured rain and recycled
site water to eliminate portable water consumption
for irrigation.
Measures adopted to reduce waste
and decrease the portable water
demand
•Use of low flush fixtures
•Use of STP treated water for flushing
Rain water harvesting system
Rain water recharging pit
Preserving site features:
