THE NEED FOR NEW HOUSING UNDER CONTINUING URBANIZATION
INDICATES THAT HOUSING MARKET WILL BE DEVOTED TO
MULTIFAMILY TYPES OF HOUSING OR APARTMENTS. THIS TREND
CONTAINS A CHALLENGE TO THE ARCHITECT TO DO MORE THAN
MERELY MEET A STATISTICAL DEMAND. HE MUST RATHER
ADDRESS, IDENTIFY, AND SOLVE THE PROBLEMS OF MULTIFAMILY
BUILDING TYPES AS AN ATTRACTIVE ALTERNATIVE TO
FREESTANDING SINGLE FAMILY BUILDINGS.

AT THE SAME TIME, INDIAS POPULATION HAS CROSSED A MARK OF
100 CRORES AND ESTIMATION SAYS THAT BY THE YEAR 2021, 350
MILLION PEOPLE WILL BE ADDED WITH FURTHER CONCENTRATION
OF POPULATION IN URBAN CENTER UP TO 12 PERCENT.
ACCORDING TO CENSUS OF 2001, INDIA HAD TOTAL RESIDENTIAL
HOUSING STOCK OF 187 MILLION WITH ONLY 51% PERMANENT
DWELLING UNITS. FURTHERMORE, OUT OF THIS HOUSING STOCK
MOSTLY HAVE NO SANITATION FACILITY, ELECTRICITY AND
DRAINAGE FACILITY. ACCORDING TO AN ESTIMATE INDIA HAD A
CHRONIC SHORTAGE OF 21.23 MILLION DWELLING UNITS, OUT OF
WHICH 36% ARE REQUIRED IN URBAN CENTERS. HOWEVER, IT
SEEMS TO BE DIFFICULT FOR PUBLIC SECTOR AGENCIES TO
ACCELERATE RATE OF HOUSING PROVISION LOOKING AT LIMITED
FINANCIAL RESOURCES. SO WORKING ON THIS HOUSING PROJECT
WOULD POSE A CHALLENGE IN UNDERSTANDING THE PROBLEM
AND THE ANALYSIS OF IT.

THE URBAN GROUP HOUSING BASICALLY OUTLINES THE NEED TO
OVERCOME THE SHORTAGE OF HOUSING DUE TO DENSE
POPULATION GROWTH RATE IN URBAN CITIES. THUS THE NEED OF
PROVIDING CHEAP EASY AFFORDABLE HOUSING WITH AMENITIES
CATERING TO ALL THE INCOME GROUPS.

THE LIG,HIG,MIG ARE DISTRIBUTED ACROSS THE AREA IN
PERCENTAGES ARE CONNECTED ACCORDINGLY TO THE
COMMERCIAL CENTERS , TRANSPORTATION , HOSPITALS AND
SCHOOLS

THE PERCENTAGES OF DISTRIBUTION OF THE INCOME GROUPS IS
DONE ACCORDING TO THE CURRENT DEVELOPMENT RATE OF THE
CITY CONCERNED

INTRODUCTION
AFFORDABLE HOUSING CAN BE DEFINED USING THREE KEY
PARAMETERS VIZ. INCOME LEVEL, SIZE OF DWELLING UNIT AND
AFFORDABILITY. WHILE THE FIRST TWO PARAMETERS ARE
INDEPENDENT OF EACH OTHER, THE THIRD PARAMETER IS
CORRELATED INCOME. HOUSING COSTS HERE INCLUDE TAXES
AND INSURANCE FOR OWNERS, AND UTILITY COSTS

DEFINING AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN INDIA IS A DIFFICULT TASK
GIVEN THAT AT EVERY SQUARE KILOMETER OF THE COUNTRY, THE
DYNAMICS OF THE MARKET ARE DIFFERENT. THEREFORE
BROADLY DEFINED AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN INDIA FOR TIER I, II
AND III CITIES BASED ON THREE KEY PARAMETERS
TWO ISSUES THAT DELINEATE TRADITIONAL INDIAN LIVING ARE,
FIRST A CLIMATIC NEED FOR LIVING OUTDOORS, AND SECOND A
FAMILYS SOCIAL NEED TO INTERACT WITH THE SURROUNDING.
MOST PRIVATE MULTI-STORIED HOUSING TODAY FAILS TO
ADDRESS THESE TWO INITIAL ISSUES OF TRADITIONAL LIVING.
SINCE, THE COURTYARD AND TERRACES ADDRESS THESE
ISSUES THEY OFTEN FORM AN INTEGRAL PART OF A
TRADITIONAL SETTLEMENT.

LITERATURE STUDY
HOUSING IS PERMANENT SHELTER FOR HUMAN HABITATION. BECAUSE
SHELTER IS NECESSARY TO EVERYONE, THE PROBLEM OF PROVIDING
ADEQUATE HOUSING HAS LONG BEEN A CONCERN, NOT ONLY OF
INDIVIDUALS BUT OF GOVERNMENTS AS WELL. THUS, THE HISTORY OF
HOUSING IS INSEPARABLE FROM THE SOCIAL, ECONOMIC, AND POLITICAL
DEVELOPMENT OF HUMANKIND.
A NEIGHBORHOOD IS A GEOGRAPHICALLY
LOCALIZED COMMUNITY WITHIN A LARGER CITY, TOWN OR SUBURB.
IT IS SIMPLY A PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH A MOTHER KNOWS
THAT HER CHILD WILL HAVE NO TRAFFIC STREETS TO CROSS ON HIS WAY
TO SCHOOL- A SCHOOL THAT IS WITHIN EASY WALKING DISTANCE FROM
HOME, AN ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH HOUSEWIFE MAY HAVE EASY WALK
TO SHOPPING CENTRE, AN EMPLOYED PERSONS MAY FIND CONVENIENT
TRANSPORTATION TO AND FROM WORK, CHILDREN MAY PLAY IN SAFETY
WITH THEIR FRIENDS. WE CAN SAY IT REPRESENTS A UNIT OF
POPULATION WITH BASIC COMMON NEEDS FOR EDUCATIONAL,
RECREATIONAL AND OTHER SERVICE FACILITIES. THIS CONCEPT WAS
DEFINED BY CLARENCE A. PERRY.
NEIGHBOURHOOD CONCEPT-
PRINCIPLES OF
NEIGHBOURHOOD THEORY:

UNIT OF URBAN PLANNING
STREET SYSTEM
FACILITIES
POPULATION
SECTOR
SIZE AND DENSITY
NEIGHBORHOOD WALKWAYS
PROTECTIVE STRIPS
Single Detached:
HOME DESIGN
UNIT LAYOUT CAN BE FLEXIBLE AT LOWER DENSITIES.
STRONG INDIVIDUAL IDENTITY AND PERSONALIZATION.
THERE IS A RICHLY DEVELOPED DESIGN VOCABULARY AND
MUCH VARIETY FOR THIS TYPE.
TREND TOWARD LARGER UNITS CONSUMES MORE MATERIAL
AND ENERGY.
SITE DESIGN
YARD CAN STRONGLY EXPRESS IDENTITY OF RESIDENTS.
CLEAR MARKING OF PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SPACE IS POSSIBLE.
FEWER NEIGHBORS MEANS FEWER OVERLOOKERS BUT ALSO
FEWER WATCHERS WHICH MAY NEGATIVELY AFFECT INFORMAL
SURVEILLANCE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
PARKING IS FLEXIBLE EVEN AT HIGHER DENSITIES.
INCREASING LAWN SIZES CAN HAVE A DISPROPORTIONATELY
NEGATIVE IMPACT ON WATER QUALITY AND NATURAL HABITAT.

NEIGHBORHOOD AMENITIES
NUMBER AND TYPE OF RETAIL AND PUBLIC AMENITIES WITHIN
WALKING DISTANCE CAN BE LIMITED DUE TO LOWER NUMBERS OF
RESIDENTS.
TRANSIT ACCESS IS OFTEN POOR.
REGIONAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AND TRANSPORTATION
COSTS AT LOWER DENSITIES CAN BE GREAT DUE TO VEHICLE
MILES TRAVELED.
BIG HOUSE/MULTIPLEX:
HOME DESIGN
UNITS CAN BE SINGLE- OR MULTI-LEVEL.
UNIT ACCESS CAN BE PRIVATE AND EXTERIOR; SHARED ENTRANCE
PRESENTS PRIVACY AND MAINTENANCE CHALLENGES.
OVERLOOKS AND REAR YARD DISTANCES HAVE SIGNIFICANT IMPACT
ON PRIVACY AND FUNCTION OF OUTDOOR SPACES.
ACCESS TO SUNLIGHT AND AIR IS AFFECTED BY THE NUMBER OF
EXTERIOR WALLS WITH WINDOWS AND THE DIRECTION THEY FACE.
SITE LAYOUT VERY IMPORTANT AND VARIES BY ARRANGEMENT OF
UNITS IN BUILDING.
PARKING CAN BE CHALLENGING, BUT OPPORTUNITIES EXIST FOR
BOTH ON- AND OFF-STREET IN A VARIETY OF FORMS.
NEIGHBORHOOD AMENITIES
POTENTIAL FOR INCREASED RETAIL AND SERVICES DUE TO
INCREASED DENSITY.
TRANSPORTATION OPTIONS GENERALLY GREATER.
NEARBY OPEN SPACES ARE
NEEDED FOR SOME
OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES.

HOUSING TYPES
SIDE ATTACHED:
HOME DESIGN
INDIVIDUAL FRONT DOORS IN A COMPACT FORM ALLOW FOR MORE
INFORMAL SURVEILLANCE.
PERSONALIZATION IS CRITICAL IN DISTINGUISHING ONE UNIT
FROM THE NEXT IN WHAT CAN BE A RATHER UNIFORM
STREETSCAPE.
MANY VARIATIONS APPEAR ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
.
.
SITE DESIGN
OVERLOOKS AND REAR YARD DISTANCES HAVE SIGNIFICANT IMPACT ON
OUTDOOR PRIVACY.
SIDE-TO-SIDE LAYOUT ACHIEVES INTENSITY BUT ACCESS TO OUTDOOR
SPACE AND NATURAL LIGHT REQUIRE CAREFUL DESIGN.
WIDE VARIETY OF SITE LAYOUTS ARE POSSIBLE TO SHAPE OUTDOOR
SPACES SUCH AS STREET CORRIDORS.
PARKING CAN BE ON-STREET, OFF-STREET, UNDER UNITS.
PRIVATE AND SHARED OUTDOOR SPACE CAN TAKE A VARIETY OF
SHAPESDESPITE LIMITED SIZEAND SHOULD ACCOMMODATE A
VARIETY OF USES
HOME DESIGN
PRIVATE AND SHARED
OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES
SHOULD BE
ACCOMMODATED WITH
ELEMENTS SUCH AS
STOOPS, BALCONIES,
TERRACES, AND
PLAYGROUNDS.
Stacked Row house:
INCREASE IN DENSITY BEGS MORE ATTENTION TO PRIVACY AND
TERRITORY, ESPECIALLY FOR SIGHTLINES AND PRIVATE OUTDOOR
SPACE.
PERSONALIZATION IS CRITICAL IN DISTINGUISHING ONE UNIT FROM
THE NEXT IN WHAT CAN BE A RATHER UNIFORM STREETSCAPE.
DUPLEX/ TRIPLEX:
HOME DESIGN
EXTERIOR ENTRIES CAN BE SHARED OR SEPARATE, BUT CAREFUL
ATTENTION TO PRIVACY, TERRITORY, AND MAINTENANCE IS NEEDED.
PERSONALIZATION IS POSSIBLE AND DESIRABLE, ESPECIALLY AT
ENTRIES.
ADAPTABLE TO MANY DIFFERENT KINDS OF SITES.
EXTERIOR SIZE AND MASSING USUALLY APPEARS VERY SIMILAR TO
A SINGLE DETACHED UNIT
SITE DESIGN
TERRITORY AND MAINTENANCE IMPORTANT IN YARD; PROVIDE
PRIVATE OUTDOOR SPACE FOR EACH UNIT.
OVERLOOKS AND BACK-TO-BACK DISTANCES HAVE SIGNIFICANT
IMPACT ON PRIVACY OF OUTDOOR SPACES.
RELATIVELY HIGH RATIO OF IMPERVIOUS SURFACE TO UNIT.
UNITS SERVED BY BOTH STREET AND ALLEY SEEM TO HAVE AN
ADVANTAGE.
PARKING IS FLEXIBLE, WITH ON- AND OFF-STREET BOTH POSSIBLE.

NEIGHBORHOOD AMENITIES
TYPE CAN INCREASE POPULATION DENSITY WHILE MAINTAINING A
SINGLE DETACHED CHARACTER.
NEARBY FACILITIES AND TRANSIT ARE LIKELY TO BE GREATER THAN
SINGLE DETACHED SITUATIONS.
CAN PROVIDE OPTIONS FOR HOUSING CHOICE AND AFFORDABILITY
CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE IN MANY AREAS.
SMALL APARTMENT:
Home design
CENTRAL HALL OR STAIR ACCESSIBLE FROM THE STREET.
MUST HAVE SOME SHARED ACCESS TO UNITS - SHARING AMONG 6-
10 UNITS IS RECOMMENDED.
AT LEAST TWO SIDES WITH WINDOWS RESULTS IN COMFORTABLE
LIGHT AND AIR QUALITY OF INDOOR SPACES.
SOME FIRST FLOOR UNITS ACCESSIBLE FROM GROUND, AFFECTING
OVERLOOKS AND SECURITY.
UNIT IDENTITY AND PERSONALIZATION POSSIBLE IN OUTDOOR
SPACE, UNIT FRONT DOOR (OR WINDOWS), INSTEAD OF FRONT DOOR
TO BUILDING.
SITE DESIGN
PARKING IS A CHALLENGE DUE TO HIGH LOT COVERAGE.
GROUND IS TYPICALLY SHARED TO SOME DEGREE.
MOST OFTEN FOUND ON URBAN PARCELS, SO STREET FACADE
AND ENTRY SEQUENCE DESIGN IS CRITICAL.
CLEAR MARKING OF PRIVATE AND SHARED TERRITORY IS
IMPORTANT.

NEIGHBORHOOD AMENITIES
LOCAL STORES ARE OFTEN WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE.
PEDESTRIAN ACCOMMODATIONS ARE CRITICAL.
TRANSIT ACCESS IS USUALLY VERY GOOD.
LOW RISE APARTMENT:
HOME DESIGN
UNITS USUALLY ACCESSED BY INTERIOR HALLWAY.
VIEWS AND OVERLOOKS AN ISSUE FOR LOWEST FLOORS.
INDIVIDUAL UNIT IDENTITY AND PERSONALIZATION IS FOCUSED ON
PRIVATE OUTDOOR SPACE OR, INTERIOR UNIT ENTRANCE INSTEAD OF
OUTSIDE FRONT DOOR.
IN RENTAL UNITS, CAREFUL DESIGN CAN ENCOURAGE SENSE OF
OWNERSHIP AND TERRITORY, LEADING TO BETTER MAINTENANCE.
INTERIOR LAYOUTS CRITICAL TO LIVABILITY.
SITE DESIGN
PARKING REQUIRES A CLEAR STRATEGYUSUALLY OFF-STREET AND
INCREASINGLY UNDERGROUND.
FLEXIBLE FORM CAN RESPOND TO NATURAL OR BUILT FEATURES, BUT
OFTEN SITED TO PRODUCE MAXIMUM UNIT COUNT.
PRIVATE OUTDOOR SPACE AVAILABLE ON BALCONIES OR PATIOS, BUT
MOST OUTDOOR SPACE IS SHARED BY ALL RESIDENTS.

NEIGHBORHOOD AMENITIES
POPULATION IN DENSER EXAMPLES CAN SUPPORT LOCAL, WALK ABLE
RETAIL.
TRANSIT ACCESS IS OFTEN VERY GOOD COMPARED TO THE
SURROUNDING AREA.
Mid Rise Apartment:
HOME DESIGN
BUILDING BULK IS LARGE BUT CAN BE SHAPED TO RESPOND TO
SURROUNDINGS.
INTERIOR UNIT LAYOUT CRITICAL FOR LIVABILITY.
GROUND IS USUALLY SHARED. PRIVATE OUTDOOR SPACE
POSSIBILITIES LIMITED TO BALCONY, ROOFTOP.
ELEVATORS ARE REQUIRED.
SECURITY AT GROUND CAN BE CHALLENGING WITH HIGH NUMBER
OF RESIDENTS AND RELATIVELY FEW AT A LEVEL WHERE THEY CAN
ADEQUATELY OBSERVE.
NEEDS CLEAR DEFINITION OF PUBLIC AND PRIVATE SPACE
SITE DESIGN
PARKING IS STRUCTURED IN DENSER LOCATIONS, ABOVE OR
BELOW GRADE.
GREAT ACCESS TO STREET, BUT CAREFUL DESIGN NEEDED TO
MAINTAIN PRIVACY.
SITE PLANNING HAS POTENTIAL TO AFFECT THE ECOLOGICAL
CHARACTER OF THE SITE.

NEIGHBORHOOD AMENITIES
CAN INCORPORATE A VARIETY OF UNIT SIZES AND AFFORD ABILITIES
SEAMLESSLY.
DENSITY CAN SUPPORT FREQUENT TRANSIT SERVICE AND LOCAL
SHOPPING, AND BE NEAR REGIONAL AMENITIES SUCH AS
DOWNTOWNS AND RECREATION.
WELL DESIGNED PUBLIC OUTDOOR SPACES SUCH AS SIDEWALKS,
PARKS, AND TRAILS ARE CRUCIAL.
Apartment over Commercial:
HOME DESIGN
INTERIOR UNIT LAYOUT IS CRITICAL FOR LIVABILITY.
SHARED ENTRIES, HALLWAYS, ELEVATORS, AND STAIRS REQUIRE
CAREFUL DESIGN FOR SAFETY AND SOCIABILITY.
UNIT INDIVIDUALIZATION OCCURS MOSTLY AT INTERIOR UNIT
ENTRANCE.
WIDE VARIETY OF OUTDOOR SPACES IF ROW HOUSES ARE
BELOW, MUCH NARROWER RANGE IF COMMERCIAL.
DISTINCT BUILDING USES REQUIRE CAREFUL DESIGN TO
SEPARATE OR INTEGRATE PEDESTRIAN ACCESS, PARKING,
DELIVERIES, AND TRASH PICK-UP.
SITE DESIGN
PARKING NEEDS CAREFUL ATTENTION TO BALANCE DAY AND
EVENING USES.
MAY EXIST IN STREET-FRONTAGE SITUATION OR, MORE RARELY,
WALK-UP OPTIONS.

NEIGHBORHOOD AMENITIES
HIGH DENSITY ALLOWS FOR GOOD ACCESS TO SERVICES AND
FACILITIES, INCLUDING TRANSPORTATION, RECREATION,
EDUCATION, SHOPPING, ETC.
AN ACTIVE PEDESTRIAN ENVIRONMENT AND SHARED PARKS ARE
REQUIRED FOR LIVABILITY.

UNIT PRIVACY GENERALLY HIGH.
SHARED ENTRIES, HALLWAYS, ELEVATORS, AND STAIRS
REQUIRE CAREFUL DESIGN FOR SOCIABILITY.
PERSONALIZATION OF UNITS IS DIFFICULT EXCEPT AT INTERIOR
UNIT ENTRIES.
IMAGE RELIES ON OVERALL BUILDING CHARACTER AND FORM.
SITE DESIGN
STRONG POSSIBILITY OF PRESERVING OPEN SPACE, AT THE
EXPENSE OF LARGE SHADOWS, INTERRUPTED VIEWS, AND EXTREME
SCALE SHIFT FROM LOWER SURROUNDING DENSITIES.
PARKING MUST BE STRUCTURED, PROBABLY UNDERGROUND.
PEDESTRIAN AMENITIES ARE CRITICAL.

NEIGHBORHOOD AMENITIES
TRANSIT AND COMMERCIAL ACCESS GENERALLY HIGH, UNLESS
TOWER IN THE GREEN SITE DESIGN SEPARATES THE BUILDING
FROM OTHER FACILITIES.
CAN BE IN VERY URBAN LOCATIONS.
RADBURN LAYOUT
INSPIRED BY GARDEN CITY CONCEPT. IT IS LOCATED IN NEW
JERSEY, WHICH IS WITHIN COMMUTING DISTANCE FROM NEW
YORK.
THIS LAYOUT WAS PLANNED BY HENRY WRIGHT AND CLARENCE
STEIN , CONCEPT OF SUPER BLOCK OF 30 TO 50 ACRES WAS
INTRODUCED.
IN THIS LAYOUT PEDESTRIAN AND VEHICULAR TRAFFIC ARE
SEGREGATED .SINGLE FAMILY DWELLINGS WERE GROUPED
AROUND CUL-DE-SAC ROADS. KITCHENS AND GARAGES FACED
THE REAR ROAD AND LIVING ROOMS FACED THE FRONT GARDEN.
ACCESS TO THE DWELLING BY CAR IS FROM REAR COURTYARDS,
WHERE GARAGES ARE LOCATED .
THE PEDESTRIAN ENTRY IS FROM FRONT SIDE.
T HAS ALLOCATED SPACE FOR INDUSTRY , SHOPPING AND
APARTMENTS BUT GREENBELT WAS NOT INCORPORATED.
IT IS A WELL LAID OUT SAFE AND QUITE AREA
FOR THE RESIDENTS AND BECAME A MODEL FOR LATER LAYOUT
PLANNING OF RESIDENTIAL AREAS.

A DIAGRAM SHOWING THE STREET NETWORK STRUCTURE OF
RADBURN AND ITS NESTED HIERARCHY. SEPARATE PEDESTRIAN
PATHS RUN THROUGH THE GREEN SPACES BETWEEN THE CULS-DE-
SAC AND THROUGH THE CENTRAL GREEN SPINE.
ELECTRICAL SERVICE
BASED ON THE ESTIMATED REQUIREMENT OF WATER SUPPLY , THE
CONSUMPTION WORK OUT TO BE 2 KW PER HOUSE HOLD AT CITY
LEVEL. THE PROVISION OF ONE ELECTRIC SUBSTATION OF 11KV FOR
POPULATION OF 15000 IS RECOMMENDED AS A GENERAL STANDARD .

DRAINAGE
THE DRAINAGE SYSTEM OF ANY CITY IS GOVERNED BY ITS NATURAL
DRAINAGE COURSE AND TOPOGRAPHY BESIDES ON ITS IMPACT ON
REGION LEVEL OF DEVELOPMENT , ITS CLIMATIC AND
HYDROLOGICAL CONSIDERATION THE DISCHARGE IS CALCULATED
THAT GUIDES THE CONSIDERATION OF PROVISION OF ADDITIONAL
DRAIN AND UP GRADATION OF EXISTING ONE.

WATER SUPPLY
FOR TOWN HAVING POPULATION LESS THAN 50000(SMALL TOWN)
ABSOLUTE MIN WATER SUPPLY FOR DOMESTIC PURPOSE IS 70 LPCD
BUT 100 LPCD IS DESIRABLE.

FIRE FIGHTING
THE FIRE SERVICE OF SMALL OR MEDIUM SIZE TOWN SHALL BE
PROVIDED TAKING CONSIDERATION OF NEEDS OF SURROUNDING
VILLAGES.
PARKING
PARKING SPACE REQUIREMENT FOR CAR 3M X 6M (FOR INDIVIDUAL
PARKING) AND 2.5M X 5M(FOR COMMUNITY PARKING).

BUILDING BYE LAWS AND
REGULATIONS
Emergence of building bye-laws is a phenomenon that rules parallel to human civilization and its
progress. Initially, the necessity of bye-laws was felt due to safety aspect of buildings.
These building bye-laws are considered to be useful tool to control building activities and are
necessary to be forward. A free for all situations is certainly not desirable since human tendency to
take advantage those prevail.
BYE-LAWS FOR GROUP HOUSING
These are double or multi-storied
Minimum area = 1000 sq.m
ROADS:
Approach road leading to the proposed area for housing (4 floors), minimum width = 9m.
For more than 4 storied building, or site more than 4000 sq.m, minimum width = 12m.
For internal roads minimum width = 4.5m & length = 50m,
for length = 125m, the minimum width should be = 6m & for length = 250m the width
should be = 9m.
Length (m) Min. width (m)

CLIMATE :
COMPOSITE CLIMATE
THIS TYPE OF CLIMATE IS NEITHER CONSISTENTLY HOT AND DRY NOR
WARM AND HUMID

CHARACTERISTICS CHANGES FROM SEASON TO SEASON
ALTERNATING BETWEEN LONG HOT DRY PERIODS TO SHORTER
PERIODS OF CONCENTRATED RAINFALL AND HIGH HUMIDITY
TWO SEASONS OCCUR NORMALLY
~ 2/3 OF THE YEAR HOT-DRY OR COOL DRY
~ 1/3 OF THE YEAR WARM HUMID
HOT SUMMERS AND COLD WINTERS
WARM HUMID JUNE TO OCTOBER
HOT DRY APRIL TO JUNE
COLD DRY NOVEMBER TO FEBRUARY

29
HUMIDITY :
ALL THE YEAR ROUND R-H IS LOW 20 55%
DURING MONSOON 55-95%

PRECIPITATION :
ANNUAL RAINFALL VARIES FROM 500- 1000MM.

SKY CONDTION :
HEAVILY OVERCAST AND DULL DURING MONSOON AND CLEAR
WITH DARK BLUE COLOUR IN DRY SEASON.

SOLAR RADIATION :
RADIATIONS ARE STRONG WITH A HIGH DIFFUSE COMPONENT DUE
TO THIN CLOUDS AND SUSPENDED MOISTURE FOR HOT AND DRY
PERIOD OF THE SEASON.
WHEREAS DURING WARM HUMID PERIOD , RADIATIONS EVEN
THOUGH BEING REFLECTED BY CLOUDS REACHES GROUND LEVEL
AND CAUSES GLARE .
THESE ARE THE POINTS TO BE CONSIDERED FOR CLIMATIC
DESIGN AT ALIGARH :-

(A) FORM AND PLANNING :
COURTYARD TYPE BUILDINGS ARE VERY SUITABLE , SHOULD
BE GROUPED IN SUCH A WAY SO AS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF
PREVAILING BREEZE DURING THE PERIOD WHEN MOVEMENT IS
NECESSARY
A MODERATELY LOW RISE DEVELOPMENT WITH VARIATION IN
HEIGHT OF THE BUILDING SUITABLE FOR THESE CLIMATES ,
WHICH WILL ENSURE PROTECTION OF OUTDOOR SPACES
MUTUAL SHADING OF EXTERNAL WALLS , SHELTER FROM WIND
IN COLD SEASON , SHELTER FROM DUST AND REDUCTION OF
SURFACES EXPOSED TO SOLAR RADIATION.
ROOFS SHALL HAVE LOW TRANSMITTANCE VALUE AND GOOD
THERMAL CAPACITY . THERMAL LOADING REDUCED DURING
HOT-DRY AND COLD SEASONS
B) EXTERNAL SPACES :
LARGE PROJECTION EAVES AND WIDE CORRIDORS ARE
NEEDED FOR WARM HUMID SEASON AS OUT DOOR AREAS ,
TO REDUCE SKY GLARE , KEEP OUT OF THE RAIN AND
PROVIDE SHADE.
LOUVERS NEEDED
VEGETATION CAN ALSO HELP IN STOPING SUN RAYS AND
DUSTY WINDS
A COURTYARD IN THE MOST PLEASANT OUTDOOR SPACE
FOR MOST OF THE YEAR AS IT EXCLUDES THE WINDS AND
TRAPS THE SUN . BUT SHOULD BE ALLOWED IN SUCH A
MANNER THAT IT ALLOWS SUN RADIATION DURING WINTERS.
C) ROOFS AND WALLS :
ROOFS AND EXTERNAL WALLS SHOULD BE THEREFORE
CONSTRUCTED OF SOLID MASONRY OR CONCRETE TO HAVE
TIME LAG OF 9-12 HOURS IN HEAT TRANSMISSION , SINCE
HEAT CONTROL IS NECESSARY IN BOTH THE SEASONS
.
(E) OPENINGS :
NORTH AND SOUTH WALLS PREFFERED ACCORDING TO GLARE
PREVENTION
NORTH WEST WINDS PREVAILS SO OPENING SHOULD BE THERE
NEVER GIVE BALCONY OR WINDOWS IN SOUTH WEST
DIRECTION AS HOT SUN COMES IN
CROSS VENTILATION IS REQUIRED , SO VENTILATORS
NECESSARY
SIZE OF OPENINGS ( 25 40 ) %
( D ) SURFACE TREATMENT :
THE PREVENTION OF HEAT ENTERING THROUGH OUTER
SURFACES OF THE WALLS AND ROOF IS FUNDAMENTAL RULE.
SURFACED EXPOSED TO THE SUN DURING THE HOT AND
WARM SEASONS SHOULD BE LIGHT COLOURED OR SHINY
POLISHED METAL .
DURING WINTERS OPPOSITE IS THE CASE . THEREFORE
COMBINATION IS PREFERRED WITH DOMINANCE OF
REFLECTING SURFACE
IT IS BENEFICIAL TO OBTAIN SOME SUNLIGHT IN THE DWELLING DURING
THE DAY .A DWELLING THAT IS FACING DIRECTLY NORTH AND RECEIVING
NO SUNLIGHT TENDS TO BE A COOL OR AIRY DWELLING.
BEDROOMS
SUNLIGHT STREAMING INTO THE BEDROOM UPON WAKING UP IN THE
MORNING IS A PLEASANT FEELING.
WEST EXPOSURE SHOULD BE AVOIDED BECAUSE THE WEST SUN DURING
THE SUMMER MONTHS IS STRONG AND HEATS UPS THE ROOM DURING THE
LATE AFTERNOON AND EARLY EVENING.
LIVING ROOM
THE LIVING ROOM SHOULD HAVE A SOUTHERLY EXPOSURE.IN HOT

ANGLES.THE VARIOUS HOUSING CLASSES ARE DIVIDED AREA
WISE AND ARE ALLOTTED SPECIFIC AREAS. THE ENTRY IS FROM
TWO SIDES. THE SITE HAS A TOTAL AREA OF 125 ACRES,WHICH IS
TO BE DEVELOPED IN PHASES .PHASE 1 COMPRISES OF LIG (2BHK)
& MIG (3BHK) HOUSING DEVELOPMENTS, & PHASE 2 CONSIST OF
HIGH RISE APARTMENT INFRASTRUCTURE .THERE IS ALSO
SCHEME FOR RESIDENTIAL PLOTS. THE SITE HAS A 55 % OPEN

HOUSING
PROJECT
The bedrooms are spacious & the
west sun is allowed inside the
room through the window. But a
serious flaw is that morning sun is
completely blocked
AN OUTSIDE VIEW OF A 2
BHK RESIDENTIAL
BUILDING. EXCELLENT
ELEVATION TREATMENT.
200 SQ.YARDS ROW HOUSING FOR MIG GROUP
INFERENCES
The housing units are well designed & makes intelligent use of the
space. though the design of dwelling units are not climate sensitive &
the buildings are not oriented climatically.
There is a visual differentiation between various classes of units.
The front setback of the scheme is very less, the building blocks start
just after the main gate.
There is no individual parking space for each unit.
There is no entrance to the shaft in the 2 bhk unit.
The overall location of the site makes it very difficult to approach.no
public transport available .though the future planning indicates the
g.t. road bypass passing right by the side of the site which makes it
promising.
Separate community spaces are provided for each residential area.
No fire fighting system is provided.
The staircase is cramped.
The township is well serviced & well maintained. water is supplied
through overhead tank located within the site.
CONCLUSION
Although the scale of the project is very large, there is ample scope in the
project. the design of the dwelling units is good and provides a good
opportunity to learn the very nature of housing schemes.

MERITS
HOUSES ARE TOO CONGESTED
HOSPITAL IS AT ONE CORNER WHICH SHOULD BE
SOMEWHERE AT THE CENTER SO THAT EASILY ACCESIBLE.
THE DELHI- KANPUR HAS NOT BE DEVELOPED AND SO ITS
HAS BECOME A MAJOR REASON FOR ITS
UNSUCCESSFULNESS
TOO MUCH OF SHOPPING COMPLEX HAS BEEN PROVIDED
WHICH IS NOT NEEDED
SITE SURROUNDING IS NOT SO DEVELOPED
NO AS SUCH USE OF PASSIVE ENERGY
SEWER PLANT IS ALMOST OPEN WHICH IS ALSO A
PROBLEM FOR THOSE WHO ARE LIVING BESIDE IT
