The progress and prosperity of country is strongly linked to the equality of education as the education plays
an important role for achieving the nation objective of social and political integration increased Productivity,
accelerated modernization and higher standard of life for all. Education makes us realize our duties towards
society and not become self centered.
Education sharpens the intellect, improves grasping power and develops the faculty of discrimination and
thus protects us from falling into error.
In the hierarchy of education there are three levelsFirst level- This level is to elementary education, which makes a person literate.
Second level Which forms the base for higher Education.
Third level- Which imparts the higher education.
The technical Institute comes under this category and is the foundation stone of the industry and commerce.
Technical institute have various streams, engineering colleges being one of the major one .these colleges
provide facilities so as to appropriate skills suitable for a rapidly changing scenario and produce a highly
competitive and professional engineers who are required for the economic growth and prosperity of the
country.
What is Education?
Education is defined as systematic instruction for the development of character and mental powers. It is a
mean to acquire knowledge in order to meet a person need as an individual and as a member of the society.
It is three fold process of
Imparting Knowledge
Developing Skills
Including proper interest, attitude and value
Architecture of Education
Indian Education history can be traced back to the Aryans who entered into the country around 1000 B.C.
there was no literature in the early time and knowledge was handed down to the generation by the words.
In the earlier time there was a Caste system in the society and only Brahmins and the Kings were entitled to
formal education. The Brahmins Education was based on the myths, legends, speculation and Arguments.
Around 500 B.C Vedic schools started under Brahmins control. Adi shankracharya set up a few peeths all
over India for Vedic learning and imparting rich knowledge of Vedas, Upanishads and emphasis was laid on
memorization, concentration , grammatical accuracy and Pronunciation.
Thus Brahmins started the Gurukul system. In this case the child was required to go and live with his teacher
in the ashram at an early age. During the training period, the pupil could visit home but his parents visit now
and then.
The teachers ashram set in the midst of the nature as in jungle away from the town life. The pupil was
required to serve the teacher and work in the ashram during this time of gaining Education.
The teaching was mainly religious and philosophical. Mathematics was also taught to facilitate the
accounting. The Mughals, especially Akbar, made Muslims education in India. His ideas in Education were
quite progressive. He realized that progress can be achieved only if the pupils learnt to think and solve their
own problem.
Buddhists have their own Shanghais and Monasteries, which developed into an education Institution.
Schools
Colleges
Universities
SchoolsSchools can be divided mainly in three types as per our current education system running in the
country.
Primary schools:
Where the child used to learn the basic of education.
Higher school:
Here the child used to learn the different subject and their role in life.
Senior secondary:
At this stage the students become matured and he used to think about his carrier and study the
subjects in which field he has to make his carrier.
Colleges:
These have various categories depending upon the field:
Art colleges:
In these colleges the studies of art subjects takes place. E.g.- Hindi, English ,history,
geography, pol. Science, etc.
Science colleges:
In these colleges studies relating to the science are given and courses offered generally are
physics, chemistry, biology, food technology, bio medical, instrumentation, computer
science.
Engineering colleges
Here the study relating to the engineering is given. It includes various streams.
UniversitiesThe universities offer the higher studies as master degrees in various streams. Master degrees of
management, computer, and business managements. A lot of courses offered by the universities. In short the
group various academic sectors are called university.
What is a College?
A College means a body of colleagues with common communities and privileges. It is more or less a singly
unified community of individuals of the different experiences and culture living together to assimilate
knowledge, improve skills, and develop character.
It is an academic institution in which instruction, research and student life is integrated in so as far as
possible. This implies a single administrative unit that brings together many academic disciplines into an
environment.
Role of CollegeThe main aim of the college is to provide quality education and to lift the standards of the students and the
society through good education system.
What is technical education?
Vocational education prepares learners for careers or professions that are traditionally non-academic and
directly related to a specific trade, occupation, or vocation, hence the term in which the learner participates.
It sometimes referred to technical education, as the learner directly specializes in a particular narrow
technique of using technology. Various fields belong to the education are engineering Technology,
Architecture, Pharmacy etc.
Need of technical EducationDue to the rapid development of science and technology key learning centers in the post industrial scenario
has been identified as universities and institutions of research rather than the industrial or commercial
enterprises.
As institutive enters to the specific and the psychological needs of the users for a specified time period of the
day and unlike community spaces it is non-commercial and primarily comfortable place away from the
normal busy and noisy world so that the purpose of being it is justified.
Institute is an organized body of scientific and other aims. An institution some definite aims by virtue of
which it are beneficial to the society.
Present Scenario of Technical Education In IndiaIndia is committed to providing basic education to its citizens, the framework of which is defined in the
national policy on education. Elementary education is now compulsory in India. There are various
scholarships offered by the government to encourage education.
The government has been encouraging adult education day by day. Technical education in India is regarded
as one of the best in the world. Every year, India makes a good number of engineers. Primers among the
training institutes offering technical education are the Indian institute of technology, Indian institute of
science, regional engineering colleges, school of planning and architecture, and the international centre for
science and technology. Among the various schemes which encourage technical education.

Green Architecture
It is the term used to describe the economical, energy saving, environmentally friendly, and
sustainable development.
Green architecture is becoming increasingly main stream with the lots of eco- friendly architectural
innovations and simple-of the self construction products to help green living.
Green architecture seeks to minimize the negative environmental impact of buildings by enhancing
efficiency and moderation in the use of the materials, energy and development space.
An eco-friendly space requires planning as much as commitment towards a better future.
Design passive solar energy facilities use energy efficient appliances, solar panels and heat pumps
technology.
Use of computer sensors controlled energy saving devices; like automatic dimmers for lighting and
occupancy sensors to adjust air-conditioning automatically.
Centralise plumbing, insulate cold/hot water piping.
Using energy saving lighting like CFL.
Install monitor power management software.
Use of low power computers.
Wood
Select low volatile organic compounds (voc) and toxic free paints, finishes and adhesives.
Use material that permits the building membrane to breathe.
Apply natural floor surfaces such as tile, timber and linoleum.
Use inert gypsum- based wall and ceiling linings.
Rapidly renewable materials such as straw, bamboo and wood.
Eco-friendly buildings with energy efficient doors and windows, herbal gardens, rainwater harvesting and
solar heating are now as fashionable as they are affordable.

Green buildings
Green building is the practice of increasing the efficiency with which buildings use resources energy,
water, and materials while reducing building impacts on human health and the environment during the
building's lifecycle, through better sitting, design, construction, operation, maintenance, and removal.
Green buildings are designed to reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human health and the
natural environment by:
Orientation
Double glazed window
Window overhangs
Thermal storage walls/roof
Roof painting
Ventilation
Day lightning
Construction material
Active solar thermal and photovoltaic systems can also be incorporated.
Sustainable floor
Sustainable flooring is produced from sustainable materials (and by a sustainable process) that reduces
demands on ecosystems during its life-cycle. This includes harvest, production, use and disposal. It is
thought that sustainable flooring creates safer and healthier buildings and guarantees a future for traditional
producers of renewable resources that many communities depend on. Several initiatives have led the charge
11
to bring awareness of sustainable flooring as well as and healthy buildings (air quality).Below are examples
of available, though sometimes less well-known, eco-friendly flooring options.
Use of solar passive concepts including daylight features in building design and operations.
Use of eco- friendly and less energy intensive building materials.
Integration of renewable energy technologies.
Use of energy efficient appliances.
Conservation of water/ waste water recycling/ rain water harvesting.
In passive solar building design, windows, walls, and floors are made to collect, store, and distribute solar
energy in the form of heat in the winter and reject solar heat in the summer. This is called passive solar
design or climatic design because, unlike active solar heating systems, it doesn't involve the use of
mechanical and electrical devices.
To designing a passive solar building is to best take advantage of the local climate. Elements to be
considered include window placement and glazing type, thermal insulation, thermal mass, and shading.
Passive solar design techniques can be applied most easily to new buildings.
Solar Passive Architecture involves blending architectural principles and solar energy to fashion
interiors which remain warm in winter and cool in summer - year-round comfortable indoor
environment.
Best Implementation of solar passive architecture takes place at the building design stage.
Retroactive designing is possible but involves more expense and labor whereas designing a building
with solar passive architecture as the basis makes for a better created environmentally and
aesthetically pleasing workspace
A house cooled/heated with solar passive architecture not only provides a comfortable environment
the year round but also saves a lot in energy bills.

For example: Turning off a light is energy conservation. Replacing an incandescent lamp with a
compact fluorescent lamp (which uses much less energy to produce the same amount of light) is
energy efficiency.
Both efficiency and conservation can reduce greenhouse gas emissions
A buildings location and surroundings play a key role in regulating its temperature and illumination.
For example, trees, landscaping, and hills can provide shade and block wind. In cooler climates,
designing buildings with south-facing windows increases the amount of sun (ultimately heat energy)
entering the building, minimizing energy use, by maximizing passive solar heating. Tight building
design, including energy-efficient windows, well-sealed doors, and additional thermal insulation of
walls, basement slabs, and foundations can reduce heat loss by 25 to 50 percent.
Dark roofs may become up to 39 C (70 F) hotter than the most reflective white surfaces, and they
transmit some of this additional heat inside the building.
Proper placement of windows and skylights as well as the use of architectural features that reflect
light into a building can reduce the need for artificial lighting. Increased use of natural and task
lighting has been shown by one study to increase productivity in schools and offices. Compact
fluorescent lights use two-thirds less energy and may last 6 to 10 times longer than incandescent light
bulbs. Newer fluorescent lights produce a natural light, and in most applications they are cost
effective, despite their higher initial cost, with payback periods as low as a few months.
The choice of which space heating or cooling technology to use in buildings can have a significant
impact on energy use and efficiency.
A term relevant for efficient energy use is energy use intensity, which is defined as energy
consumption per floor area.
The concept of sustainable building incorporates and integrates a variety of strategies during the design,
construction and operation of building projects. The use of green building materials and products represents
one important strategy in the design of a building.
Green building materials offer specific benefits to the building owner and building occupants:
Resource Efficiency can be accomplished by utilizing materials that meet the following criteria:
Recycled Content: Products with identifiable recycled content, including postindustrial content with
a preference for postconsumer content.
13
Natural, plentiful or renewable: Materials harvested from sustainably managed sources and
preferably have an independent certification (e.g., certified wood) and are certified by an independent
third party.
Resource efficient manufacturing process: Products manufactured with resource-efficient
processes including reducing energy consumption, minimizing waste (recycled, recyclable and or source
reduced product packaging), and reducing greenhouse gases.
Locally available: Building materials, components, and systems found locally or regionally saving
energy and resources in transportation to the project site.
Salvaged, refurbished, or remanufactured: Includes saving a material from disposal and
renovating, repairing, restoring, or generally improving the appearance, performance, quality,
functionality, or value of a product.
Reusable or recyclable: Select materials that can be easily dismantled and reused or recycled at the
end of their useful life.
Recycled or recyclable product packaging: Products enclosed in recycled content or recyclable
packaging.
Durable: Materials that are longer lasting or are comparable to conventional products with long life
expectancies.
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) is enhanced by utilizing materials that meet the following criteria:
Low or non-toxic: Materials that emit few or no carcinogens, reproductive toxicants, or irritants as
demonstrated by the manufacturer through appropriate testing.
Minimal chemical emissions: Products that have minimal emissions of Volatile Organic
Compounds (VOCs). Products that also maximize resource and energy efficiency while reducing
chemical emissions.
Low-VOC assembly: Materials installed with minimal VOC-producing compounds, or no-VOC
mechanical attachment methods and minimal hazards.
Moisture resistant: Products and systems that resist moisture or inhibit the growth of biological
contaminants in buildings.
Healthfully maintained: Materials, components, and systems that require only simple, non-toxic, or
low-VOC methods of cleaning.
Systems or equipment: Products that promote healthy IAQ by identifying indoor air pollutants or
enhancing the air quality.

Earth Berming
This technique is used both for passive cooling as well as heating of buildings, a feat which is made possible
by the earth acting as a massive heat sink. Summer as well as winter variations die out rapidly with
increasing depth from the earth's surface. This temperature at a depth of a few meters remains almost stable
throughout the year. Thus, the underground or partially sunk buildings would provide both cooling (in the
summer) and heating (in the winter) to the living space. Besides, load fluctuations are reduced by the
addition of earth mass to the thermal mass of the building. The infiltration of air from outside is reduced.
The earth sheltered structure has to be heavier and stronger to withstand the load of the earth and the
vegetation above. Besides, it should be suitably waterproofed and insulated to avoid ground moisture.
Additional heating, if required, can be provided by means of direct gain through windows near the roof
projecting above the ground. Similarly, additional cooling if required can be provided by circulating air
through ducts built underground (where the temperature is low). The same ducts can provide some degree of
preheating for the fresh outside air during the cold periods.
If solar overheating is a problem, as in tropical climates, there are four methods available for reduction of
solar heat gain through the windows:
Shading Design
The design of shading devices can be quite complex. Computer programs exist to accurately shape shades
for very specific purposes. However, in their absence, and with a little understanding of the mechanics of
sun position and sun-path diagrams, manual methods can be used.
External shading devices are preferable and more effective than internal ones. This includes devices fixed to
the outside of the window or attached to building envelope. Among the operable units are louvers made of
wood or metal, exterior venetian blinds, shutters, awnings and fixed or movable overhangs.
As you should know from your own personal experience, the most important characteristic of solar position
is its seasonal variation. At the height of summer in the southern-hemisphere the sun rises slightly south-east
and sets slightly south-west. In winter it rises slightly north east and sets slightly north-west. It also rises
much earlier and sets much later in summer than in winter. In the northern hemisphere, north and south are
reversed.
15
The aim of good shading design is to utilise these characteristics to best advantage, usually complete
exclusion in summer and maximum exposure in winter.
Effective Shading
South (pole-facing)
Not required
Shadow Angles
When attempting to shade a window, the absolute azimuth and altitude of the Sun are not as important as the
horizontal and vertical shadow angles relative to the window plane. These can be calculated for any time if
the azimuth and altitude of the Sun are known.
16
It is the VSA that determines the depth of the required shade. The diagram more adequately describes the
derivation of the VSA
Design of Openings
For the designer who wishes to use solar energy in buildings but at the same time avoid summer
overheating, the orientation of the building is the most important consideration.
South Orientation
South openings can be used as solar radiation collectors during winter, and by using the appropriate shading
device direct radiation can be avoided during summer.
The benefits from the south orientation are the following:
Better distribution of solar gains through the day than to other orientations.
Energy savings in heating.
Less risk of overheating than East and West orientation in summer.
Simple horizontal sun-shading devices, (overhangs, balconies) are effective.
The thermal solar gains are enough to cover the limited thermal load during spring and autumn, in regions
with a mild climate, thus shortening the heating period.
A proper arrangement of interior spaces improves the efficiency of the building.
If the size of the windows is increased the insulation of the envelope should be reinforced in order to
conserve thermal solar gains to the building.
Avoid planting evergreen trees or anything else that would cause overshadowing in the front of the building
North Orientation
North openings provide better quality of lighting to a space because they only allow diffused light and not
direct. They are more useful during summer, but they should be of a limited size because otherwise they
cause high thermal losses during winter.
The following best practice guidelines are valid for north oriented buildings and facades:
The openings' surface area should be kept as large as it is necessary for lighting and natural ventilation
purposes.
17
The insulation of the building's envelope should be increased by 25% compared to the usual standard, in
order to reach the level of energy consumption of a building with south orientation.
Use of double or special insulated glass panes is recommended.

NORMS FOR INFRASTRUCTURE GeneralThe norms for the space and buildings have been arrived at, based on the functions, a technical
institution offering degree or equivalent programmes, has to perform. In all the cases, unit norms
have been evolved taking the absolute minimum needs, which are indicated as norms. As such the
institutions, while envisaging their space and building requirements, must keep their plans
accordantly.
Around the administrative building, classrooms and drawing halls there is considerable movement of
students and therefore there must be adequate veranda space in this part of the college building so
that the classes do not get disturbed. For this reason, the ratio of plinth to carpet area for the normal
building.
Classification of buildings areaThe building area required for an engineering institution can be classified Instructional area

Residential areas
The course of any technical institution degree program will include lectures, tutorials , drawing and
design work , laboratory work and seminars. The college must have adequate building areas for all
these instructional activities.
The model curriculum during different seminars, the total no. of hours per week for which the
student is to have contact with the teachers will vary between 27 to 34.
For the instructional schedule if spread over a period of 34 hours a week, the college can work for 6
hours from Monday to Friday and for 4 hours on Saturdays.
The student strength in a theory class should not exceed 60. The class be divided into smaller group
of 20 in case of junior (I,II,III&IV SEMESTER)classes and 15 students for the senior
(V,VI,VII&VIII SEMESTER)and a teacher is assigned to each group. In case of tutorial work, these
smaller groups must be accommodated in separate rooms.
For drawings and design assignments, the class can have a maximum size of 60 students but one
teacher must be assigned to each group of 15-20 students for the junior / senior classes as in the case
of tutorial and practical classes.
In the case of workshop practice classes for the junior students, which emphasize the skills
component of the training, the classes will have to be divided into smaller groups and work assigned
24
in the different shops. Considering the specific nature of training, the workshop practice classes of
junior students can have maximum no. of 20 students.
Number of rooms for theory classesThe no. of rooms required for the theory class can be determined by applying the following relationships.
NL = A(TL/ SL)
WHERE
NL= number of rooms required for the lecture classes
TL = Total number of the students in the college belonging to all classes of all disciplines attending theory
classes of the given strength SL. This no. depends on the admissions to the different disciplines.
Class strength i.e. the no. of the students in the class.
A = a factor obtained on the basis of
Lecture hours per week per class,15
Average teaching hours per week , 30
Utilization factors of the lecture rooms,0.66
A=(15)/(30*0.66)=0.75
In this case
TL = 1200
SL = 60
So NL = 0.75(1200/60)
= 0.75 (20)
= 15
So
25
No. of rooms for tutorial workThe no. of rooms required for tutorial work can be determined by applying the following relationshipsNL = B (TL/ST)
Where
NT = Number of rooms requires for conducting tutorial classes.
ST = class strength for tutorials. Tutorial must have strength of 20 in case of 1st and 2nd year classes ,
whereas in the case of senior classes it should be limited to 15. Hence an average value of 17.5 can be
assumed.
TL = total no. of the students in the college belonging to all classes of all discipline who attend tutorial
classes in groups of 15- 20.
B = a factor obtained on the basis of tutorial hours per week per class
(6.0) average teaching hours per week say 30 and the utilization factor of lecture rooms , say 0.75
So B= 6.0/(30*0.75)
=0.26
Here ST = 17.5
TL = 1200
SO NT = 0.26(1200/17.5)
=18 ROOMS

36
DATA FROM STANDARDSFacilities in the collegeBasic facilities for all the technical subjects e.g. civil engineering, physics , mechanical engineering,
electrical engineering:
Central facilities
37
38
Lecture rooms and theatresMajor factor to be considered in designing a lecture room are the following
Considerations It is preferable to group large lecture theatres for central lectures in separate complexes
Smaller lecture theatres for lectures on specialists subjects are better in the individual department
and institute buildings.
Access to the lecture theatre is separated from the research facilities, with short routes and entrances
from outside at the back of the lecture hall.
For raked seating entrances can be behind the top row and large theatres can also have them in the
centre on the each side.
Lecturers enter at the front, from the preparation room.
As the use of audio visual system become one of the important method for teaching, therefore it is
preferable that facilities should provided to darken the room when audio visual system is required.
Lecture theatres for the subjects involving writing on chalkboards and projection have seating on
shallow.
Demonstration lecture theatres for science subjects have experiment branches and seating steeply
raked.
Standard minimum size for a rectangular shaped lecture theatre: 0.20-0.25 sq. mt./ seat.
39
Seating In Lecture Theatres Combined units of tip-up or swing seats, backrest and writing ledge (with shelf or hook for
folders).
Seating arrangement depending on subject , number of students and teaching method.
Amount of space per student depends on the type of seat , depth of writing shelf and rake of
floor.
Amount of space per student: for seating in comfort 70x65 cm : and on average 60 x 80 = 55 x 75
cm.
0.60 sq. mt. needed per student including all spaces in large lecture theatres under the most
cramped conditions; in smaller lecture theatres and in average comfort 0.80- 0.95 sq.mt.
Projection screens and boards can be designed as a segmented, curved wall or simply fixed to a
flat end wall.
Wall blackboards are usually made up of several sections which can be moved up and down
manually or mechanically
Blackboards can be designed to drop down beneath the projection area. Blackboards on wheels
can also be considered.
40
Related additional spaces Each lecture theatre should have an ancillary room, with no fixed function which can also be used for
storage.
Spaces for storage and service rooms are essential for the proper running of a lecture theatre
complex; a service room for the technical staff servicing the equipment in the lecture theatres, a
service room for cleaners, storeroom for spare parts, tube lights, light bulbs, chalkboards , clothes
etc.
Minimum room size 15 sq. mt. overall space requirement for ancillary rooms at least 50-60 sq.mt.
Basic room requirement for all subjects General-purpose seminar rooms usually have 20, 40 , 50 or 60 seats, with movable double
desks.(width 1.20,depth 0.60).
Space required per student 1.90- 2.00 m.
41
Departmental (open shelf) librariesCapacity for 30000- 20000 books on open shelves.
42
Drawing studio Each space requires 3.5 -4.5 sq. mt.,depending on the size of drawing table. For right handed people
it is best if illumination comes form the left.
Artificial light should be at 5001x,with1000lx(from mounted drawing lamps or linear lamps hung in
variable positions above the long axis of the table) at the drawing surface.
Basic equipment Drawing table of dimensions suitable for A0 size table (92x127 cm);fixed or adjustable board.
Drawings cabinet for storing drawing flat, of same height as drawing table,surface can also be used
to put the things.
A small cupboard on castors for drawing materials, possibly with filing cabinet, is desirable.
Adjustable height swivel chairs on castors.
Drawing tables, upright board, adjustable height or usable as flat board when folded down.
43
44
According to subjectChemistry and biology labs with fixed benches. Rooms have frequent air exchange often additional fume
cupboards (digesters) for work which produces gas or smoke. Digesters often in separate room. Physics lab
mainly with movable benches and a range of electrical installations in trucking in the wall or suspended
from the ceilings; few air changes. Special labs for specific requirement, e.g. isotope lab for work with
radioactive substance in differing safely categories.
Lab workstation The bench fixed or movable is the module which determines the lab workstation.
Normal measurement for standard workbench: 120 cm width for practicals.
Benches and fumes cupboards are usually part of a modular system, width of elements 120 cm. fume
cupboards 120 and 180 cm.
The conduit carries all the supply systems; benches and low cupboards are placed in front of it.
Benches are made up of steel tubing, with work surfaces of stoneware panels without joints , less
frequently tiles,
Low cupboards are of wood or chip board with plastic laminate.
Supply services are from above form ceiling void.
45
Electrical servicesA high no. of connections and special supplies of electricity are required
Parking servicesThere continuous to be increase in vehicle, numbers with a corresponding demand of facilities to serve the
car and the owner :petrol garages , high road service stations ,car parking, car showrooms, and repair
garages.
46
LENGTH DIMENSION
Parking configuration
Dimensions of vehicle parking spaces in parking bays range from 1.80x4.60m to 2.50X6.00m. but slightly
longer for longer parking.
While the 90 degrees parking is more economical in space requirements (20-22 sq. per car), 45 degrees
parking (23-26sq. mt.) can be more convenient.
LOCATION
Parking arrangements should be clear and organized , using road markings and signs, preferably with one
way systems. Keep dead ends as short as possible so that the driver can view vacant spaces.
Staff car parking must be quite seprate and entered from service areas and not from visitors access points.
Car parking designSingle storey open car parks can be required for both private and public use. Large open plan parking areas
often need to be broken down in scale by incorporating:
Variety in surfaces
Screening or separation to delineate areas and help locate vehicles.
Use of landscaping to soften hard expanses.
Parking layouts
Parking lots, exclusive of drivers for entering them, require 350 sq. ft. as a rough preliminary figure.
The area per car varies from 280 sq.ft. to 585 sq. ft.
A central driveway with two rows of cars and 90 degree parking gives the best economy. Diagonal
parking is easier for the driver. In designing parking spaces, end stalls should be 1 ft. wider than
usual.
Parking spaces under building access drives should be 20 ft. wide for one way traffic. If a restricted
site frontage requires a right angle turn off, the driveway should be 25 ft. wide and the curb should
have a 30 ft. wide radius.

LIBRARY
Library bulding may be broadly classified by their size and their relationship to the communities or
organization they serve.however three broad classification of library areLibrary for education
These vary greatly in size according to the type of institutions ,e.g. university
Public library
These type of library vary considerably in size depending on the communities they serve. As well as lending
and reference functions , in recent years the development of new media and technology has brought great
changes and affects the basic planning of library building.
Public library can be divided into three parts:
Book shelves are in various sizes, but it has been established that at least 90% books are 230 mm
deep.
Library could standardize on 230 mm wide shelving, with special runs of shelving ( limited number)
300 mm wide for books over 230 mm wide.
Manufacturer offer three lengths of shelving in their system- 750 mm,900mm and 1m.
Wall shelving should never be higher than 2m
Island shelves in lending libraries should not be higher than 1.5m and 1.375 is preffered.
No shelf in public areas should be lower than 300mm from the floor and preferably 400mm in island
shelving
52
Open rack
In open stack book storage more room must be provided for readers fr browsing and cross traffic.
Provision of cross aisles is important in this type of shelving
Minimum clearance from the rack:
Closed rack
The shelving should provide the maximum storage of books with minimum use of space. This means island
should be double sided stacks, with single sided along the perimeter walls.
The distance between stack will be dicated by access of book trolley.
The bottom shelf in closed book rack can be as near to the floor as possible( 75 mm) with top shelf not
higher than 1.9m, thus preffered total height of stack 2.3 m ( 7 shelves total).
53
Open access
This is the most space consuming arrangement of the book storage.
It is recommended to provide approximately 900mm browsing space in the front of shelves and a
space of approximately. 760 mm beyond this as passage space- a minimum of 2560 mm between
shelves.
Stack width should be 440mm.
The height of island stacks should not be more than 1600mm, and with full wall fixed shelving upto
1850mm, shelf thickness 20 mm, and the height of the bottom shelf should be 400mm from the floor.
Shelving recommended should have 5 shelve in 1850 mm and 4 shelves in 1600 mm high stack.
The vertical distance between shelves should be approximately 270 mm.
Study carrels
In addition to open reading areas, provision of study carrels will be necessary for servicing long
term readers.
The provision and type of such carrels will vary with degree of sepration and privacy needed by
users of these facility.
Some carrels will have to be sound.
54
Reading areas
The recommended size of each individual table is 900X600mm. if tables are arranged in rows this
will have to be increased to 900X900mm.
Each reader allowance in reading area should be 2.3 m giving him the share of circulation with in the
room.
A long table can accommodate up to 12 readers: the width of such table should be 1200mm.
It is recommended that long tables should have divisions
All reading area will be served by staff centers.
In library the issue and return counter may be separated.

Validity of the projectTo improve the standard of the technical education in the city .the state government accepted a no. of
proposals to set up an engineering college in different parts of the state. The site has been acquired by the
trust and the requirements are finalized.
AimsTo provide a campus that is convenient and safe and provide an appropriate surrounding to stimulate the
body, mind and spirit in the pursuit of academic excellence and at the same time has its distinctive identity.
Objectives
Scope of the projectThese days the education standards are becoming higher and higher and the concept of green building also
and so as the campus match with these standards. As the college caters different activities such as
administrative area, academic area, residential area , sports area so we have to integrate all these and no part
should look single .the scope of the design is far greater than problem of designing a single building and
certainly more than the design of a collection of individual building. Though our approach should be such
that focus on the building and making a campus green.
Methodology
Firstly selection of the project and clients brief is carried out and in it also studying about the scope
of design, aims and objectives, site brief and requirements.
60
Then knowing about the connectivity of the different spaces. For this purpose library and case
studies of newly established engineering colleges has to be carried out.
Then understanding the proper requirements of the project, their area calculation, and their
hierarchical scheme and site study.
Then collecting the data about this from case studies, library study and internet.

SIGNIFICANCE A Significant focus of Engineering Institute is that of connection and globalization. As technology
and design progresses, it is important that we keep in contact with the rest of the world.
Every disaster, natural or not, that occurs in the world today effects everyone. Tsunamis, volcanic
eruptions, terrorist attacks; the world is informed of such happenings.
Without roads to get from point A to point B, or helicopters, or jets, the world would seem a very
distant place. Essentially, engineering encourages a sense of awareness and togetherness.
Engineering serves as the calcium of society today. It continuously strengthens our pre-existing
knowledge of design.
