PROJECT TITLE: ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN OF FOUR STOREY BUILDING FOR CHAKUAMA-SINZA ORPHANAGE CENTRE CASE STUDY: MBEZI

STUDENT NAME: OMAR I.BHOKI

ADMISSION NUMBER: 100101P7280

INTRODUCTION.

Chakuama Orphanage Centre is situated at Sinza A and it is currently serving 125 children (boys and girls).The children are taken since birth and are taken care until the finish their secondary education and are able to take care of themselves.

PROBLEM STATEMENT.
At Chakuama orphanage centre there is there is a problem of insufficient building to keep the orphans. As such, all the boys and girls are still kept together in small area. The sponsors of the centre have plans to construct another building but they dont have an architectural drawing for the building structure.

PROJECT OBJECTIVE.
The objective of the project is to come up with architectural drawing of four floor building for the orphanage centre.

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PROJECT.

At the end of my project the orphanage centre will have an architectural design of four storey building.

METHODOLOGY
Literature review Data collection Data analysis

 LITERATURE REVIEW
-Architecture is an art and science of designing and erecting building and other physical structures. In relation to buildings, architecture has to do with the planning, designing and constructing form. An intelligent building begins with intelligent architecturethe shape, the building enclosure, and the way the building appears and functions.
Importance of architectural design.
Architectural design is used as the engineers languages since it provide the coordination between them so as to ensure that the appropriate structure is built. It reflects the ideas workable structure/building and structural art is achieved.

FACTORS CONSIDERED WHEN DESIGNING.

Type of the building The usage of the building Place where the building is to be constructed Amount of Air circulation required Financial purpose

ARCHITECTURAL CONSIDERATION.
In Architectural designing we consider; The site plan The floor plan The roof plan The elevation and section of the structure

o A site plan include all the existing and proposed conditions on a given site o A Floor plan shows the horizontal view of the building taken at an appropriate level o The elevation is mostly applied to the exterior part of the building structure o The building section is a cut through the building in which the interior parts are shown.

BUILDING PLAN
-It is the arrangement of various units of building in all floors.

SIGNIFICANCE OF BUILDING PLAN

Make best use of space Create health conditions for living in habitants To develop environment to beautiful situation.

To make user of building feel to work more and comfortable.

LEVELLING.
Branch of survey which deals with the method of expressing the relative height of any number of points, above or below some plane of reference called the datum. Back sight:-this is the first reading taken during levelling Fore sight:-this is the last reading taken during levelling. Intermediate sight:-it is the reading taken between fore sight and back sight Bench mark:-permanent point whose height from the datum is known Reducing level:-distance between the data to the ground level

DATA COLLECTION.
o o o o o Rate orphans in Tanzania Current number of orphans at the centre Surveying the site and see all the physical features of the exist Measuring the site dimensions Leveling the site

MEASUREMENT OF THE SITE. The measurement of the site is 51m length and 35m width, while the proposed area has 46x35m. The current number of orphans is 125 children(74 boys) and (51 girls)

DATA ANALYSIS
The window area which transmits light must be at least 0.05 of the surface area of the floor in the work space. The floor are of one room is 6mx4m=24m2

The designed room window is (0.75mx1.2m)x2

DESIGN OF STAIR CASE

1) The assumed height of riser is 185mm 2) Height of risers is 1750mm 3) Number of Risers =1750mm/185mm=9.5 app. =10 4) Actual height of rise=1750mm/10=170mm 5) Thread =number of riser-1 Thread=10-1=9 6) Going =length of stair case/thread Going =2200/9=244.4mm

7) The inclination angle of stair case TanQ=size of riser/size of going Q=tan-(170/244.4)=34.8o
