गुरौ न प्राप्यते यत्तन्नान्यत्रापि पि लभ्यते। गुरुप्रसादात सर्वं तु प्राप्नोत्येर्व न संशयः॥ गुरु के द्वारा जो प्राप्त नही ं होता, वह अन्यत्र िी नहीं भमलता। गुरु कृपा से भनस्संदेह (मनुष्य) सिी कुछ प्राप्त कर ही लेता है । Whatever is not obtained from the Guru, cannot be obtained from elsewhere.

With the grace of the Guru one indeed gets everything.

LAYOUTS 8.FINAL PLANS AND VIEWS

• A gurukul is a type of school in India, residential in nature, with shishyas living in proximity to the guru, often within the same house.

• In a gurukul, shishyas reside together as equals, irrespective of their social standing, learn from the guru and help the guru in his day-to-day life, including the carrying out of mundane chores such as washing clothes, cooking, etc.

• India has a long history of organized education. Gurukuls were traditional Hindu residential schools of learning; typically the teacher’s house or a monastery.

• Gurukulas have existed since the Vedic age. Mahatma Gandhi, Father of India, once said to have described, “The traditional educational system as a beautiful tree that was destroyed during the British rule”.

• The gurukul style of education emphasizes on 1.

Communication skills, 2.

Knowledge of contemporary world, 3.

Understanding of cultural heritage, 4.

Development of moral values, 5.

Environmental awareness, 6.

Spirit of community service and 7.

Physical fitness.

• This style of education will help students to inculcate life skills, spiritual lessons, moral values in them to be self-sufficient in their life.

Itihasa (History) Education during Vedic period The gurukul system of education has been in existence since ancient times. Guru Shishya tradition has been considered a unique feature of the Indian Educational System. The Vedic school of thought prescribes the Upanayana (sacred rite of passage) to all individuals before the age of 8 at least by 12.

• The Gurukuls were run by great teachers who never thought of personal prosperity but always thought of society. The gurukul’s were supported by public donations. This was followed by the many following Vedic thoughts making gurukul one of the earliest forms of public school centers. Thus, the system of education in India paved the way to achieve the following aims of Indian education: • Infusion of piety and religiousness • Formation of characters • Development of personality • Promotion of social efficiency and happiness • Preservation and spread of culture Education under British Rule • British records show that indigenous education was widespread in the 18th century, with a school for every temple, mosque or village in most regions of the country.

• There was a general decline in Indian society and economy with the coming of British rule. Education during the British rule, we can find that pre-British schools and colleges were maintained by grants of revenue-free land.

• The East India Company, with its policy of maximizing land revenue, stopped this and thus starved the Indian education system of its financial resources. The current system of education, with its western style and content, was introduced and funded by the British in the 19th century, following recommendations by Macaulay.

• Traditional structures were not recognized by the British government and have been on the decline since.

After Independence • After independence, education became the responsibility of the states. The central Government’s only obligation was to co-ordinate in technical and higher education and specify standards. Till continued till 1976, when the education became a joint responsibility of the state and the Centre. The 86th Amendment of the Indian constitution makes education a fundamental right for all children aged 6-14years.

WHY AYODHYA ? अयोध्या मथुरा माया काशी काञ्ची अर्वन्तिका । िुरी द्वारार्वती चैर्व सप्तैते मोक्षदायकाः ॥ “Ayodhya, Mathura, Maya (Mayapuri or Haridwar), Kashi (Varanasi), Kanchi (Kanchipuram), Avantika (Ujjain) and Dwaravati (Dwaraka); These seven cities are giver of Moksha (Liberation) (and are called Mokshapuri)”

An ancient town, Ayodhya is regarded as one of the seven sacred cities of the Hindus, revered because of its association in the great Indian epic poem Ramayana with the birth of Rama and with the rule of his father, Dasharatha. According to this source, the town was prosperous and well fortified and had a large population.

DISASTER ANALYSIS AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT FLOOD Over 40 million hectares (12 percent of land) is prone to floods and river erosion whereas approximately 73.36 lakhs hectare land has been recognized as flood prone due to the flooding in Uttar Pradesh. The tragedy and the lessons learnt from the severe floods of eastern changed the mindset of the government and the focus of disaster management shifted from “Rescue, Relief and Restoration” to “Planning, Preparedness &Prevention”.

Hazard risk assessment and vulnerability mapping :Uttar Pradesh is vulnerable to various disasters. Below table explains (on the basis of hazard analysis) district-wise degree of risk and vulnerability involved in Uttar Pradesh.

In 1973, 52 districts of the State inundating about 73.36 lac ha area (42.62 lac ha of cropped area), affecting 2,51,00,000 people of 45,666 villages were affected by floods. The details are as below :

Some of the inferences, drawn, are mentioned below: 1. Soft alluvial soil around river Yamuna pose risk of high damages during earthquakes and soil in and around eastern part of Uttar Pradesh near rivers Ghaghara, Rapti, Gandak and Ganga, pose grim situation of floods.

A high population, high residential and industrial density, scattered slums, living in poor housing conditions along with poor preparedness and administrative response aggravates the risk and may lead to colossal losses to lives and property during emergencies.

Hazard risk assessment and vulnerability mapping for floods : The total geographical area of Uttar Pradesh is 240.98 lakhs hectare, of which approximately 73.36 lakhs hectare land has been recognized as flood prone due to the flooding of major rivers like Ganga, Yamuna, Ramganga, Gomti, Ghaghra, Rapti, Sharda & Gandak.

The magnitude of the flood depends upon the snow melt off, intensity of rainfall, its duration and also on ground conditions in the catchment area. When heavy spell of rainfall occurs, floods causes severe damages to human life and properties.

Records from central water commission say that Ghaghara and Rapti river basin has experienced major floods during 1965, 1969, 1973 & 1998.

Early warning and Dissemination System Location & Catchment Area of Gauge Station on different rivers are as below:

River level data are being sent to flood forecasting centers and accordingly they decide about the area to be flooded and the same is communicated to the various officials of the State Government including Relief Commissioner, U.P., Chief Engineer (Investigation & Planning) Irrigation Department, U.P., Lucknow and the concern District Magistrate.

Apart from the above manual gauge station one automatic gauge station is established on Ghaghra Rriver at Ayodhaya.

DISASTER ANALYSIS AND DISASTER MANAGEMENT EARTHQUAKE

The earthquake zoning map of india divides india into 4 seismic zones (zone 2, 3, 4 and 5) unlike its previous version, which consisted of five or six zones for the country. According to the present zoning map, zone 5 expects the highest level of seismicity whereas zone 2 is associated with the lowest level of seismicity. Zone 3 is classified as a Moderate Damage Risk Zone which is liable to MSK VII. The IS code assigns a zone factor of 0.16 for Zone 3

VEDIC EDUCATION -GURUKULA SYSTEM OF EDUCATION The education system which was evolved first in ancient India is known as the Vedic system of education. In other words, the ancient systems ofeducation were based on the Vedas and therefore it was given the nameof Vedic Educational System. Ancient education emerged from the Vedas.They are supposed to be the source of Indian philosophy of life. Vedasmeans ‘to know’.

Vedas occupy a very important place in the Indian life. The basis of Indian culture lies in the Vedas which are four in number – Rigveda, Samveda,Yajurveda, and Atharavaveda.

The education system that prevailed during the Vedic times had some unique characteristics. Education was confined to the upper castes, and to those who were Brahmacharis. In Indian tradition, a person’s life cycle is dividedinto four stages of which ‘Brahmacharis’ is the second phase. This is thetime set aside for learning and acquiring skills. During Vedic period, mostof the upper varnas, which were either Brahmins or Kshatriyas, had their education in a unique system called ‘Gurukulas’.

MAIN FEATURES OF THE VEDIC EDUCATION:In ancient India teaching was considered to be holy duty which a Brahman was bound to discharge irrespective of consideration of the fee teacher were expected to devote their lives to the cause of teaching in the missionary spirit of self-sacrifice, and the society laid down the principal that both the public and state should help the learned teachers & educational institutions very liberally. Society realized that “Vidyadana” or the gift in the cause of education was to be the best of gifts, possessing a higher religious merit than even the gift of land. On the occasion of religious feats, students and teachers were invited and donations were given liberally.

VEDIC EDUCATION -GURUKULA SYSTEM OF EDUCATION Curriculum:1. Vedic Literature: The word ‘Veda’ is derived from the root ‘vid’ , which means to know.

In other words, the term ‘Veda’ signifies Superior Knowledge.

• The Rig-Veda- Termed as stuti of gods.

• The Yajurveda- Describes about how to pronounce mantras.

• The Sam Veda- It describes how to perform Yagya.

• The Atharavaveda- It describes art of living.

2. Vedangas- Vedangas literally mean the limbs of the Vedas. They are six in number. Just like the limbs of the body, they perform various supportive and augmenting functions in the study, preservation and protection of the Vedas and the vedic traditions. The six Vedangas are Siksha, Chhanda, Vyakarana, Nirukta, Jyotisha and Kalpa. Of these six subjects, Siksha deals with the study of sounds and pronunciation associated with each syllable; Chhanda with the mastery of rhyme and meter; Vyakarna with the study of word and sentence structure; Nirukta with the meaning of complex words and phrases; Jyotisha with the study of heavenly bodies to find an auspicious time for the performance of the rituals; and Kalpa with the ethical , moral and procedural percepts associated with the performance of rituals as a way of life.

3. Hetuvidya- It is the logic of the Law of Cause and Effect. Understanding this principle can enable one to see both past (causes) and future (effects).

4. Silpa- vidya- literally means the Science of Shilpa (arts and crafts). Sixty-four techniques for such arts or crafts, sometimes called bāhya-kalā "external or practical arts", are traditionally enumerated, including carpentry, architecture, jewellery, farriery, acting, dancing, music, medicine, poetry etc.

5. Physical Education- Students had to learn riding, archery, wrestling, hunting, jumping, dancing etc.

6. Stress on other worldliness- concern with material values or ordinary life rather than a spiritual existence.

24-Vasu.

36-Rudra.

ROLE OF TEACHER OR ACHARYA:The teacher or acarya in the Vedic age was responsible not only in imparting knowledge – religious as well as secular, but also in molding the character and personality of the pupils of his asrama. The acarya of the gurukula system was an affectionate father, an effective teacher, and a person of high moral and spiritual qualities. He maintained discipline by the influence of his personality. He was sincere and honest to his work. He taught with his heart and soul. He also performed the functions of a householder performing the five daily yajnas and observing vows. He led a disciplined life.

ROLE OF STUDENT:The student in the Vedic school was called brahmacarin. He had to dedicate his life for the sake of gaining knowledge, leading an enlightened life. In his formative life he must lead an austere and disciplined life. The Upanishads clearly describe the qualities required for a brahmacarin. A student had to be calm, patient, self-restrained and selfdenying. The student’s prayer included his longing for the realization of a full life. Thus the main aim of the Vedic educational system was to produce a rational individual, free from passions, full of universal affection, continuously selfeducating and striving to reach the highest goal.

CULTURAL CONTEXT HISTORICAL RELEVANCE Ancient Hindu Sanskrit-language epics, such as the Ramayana and the Mahabharata mention a legendary city called Ayodhya, which was the capital of the legendary Ikshvaku kings of Kosala, including Rama. Neither these texts, nor the earlier Sanskrit texts such as the Vedas, mention a city called Saketa. Non-religious, non-legendary ancient Sanskrit texts, such as Panini's Ashtadhyayi and Patanjali's commentary on it, do mention Saketa. The later Buddhist text Mahavastu describes Saketa as the seat of the Ikshvaku king Sujata, whose descendants established the Shakya capital Kapilavastu.

AYODHYA DISPUTE The Ayodhya dispute is a political, historical, and socio-religious debate in India, centred on a plot of land in the city of Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh. The issues revolve around the control of a site traditionally regarded among Hindus to be the birthplace of their deity Rama, the history and location of the Babri Masjid at the site, and whether a previous Hindu temple was demolished or modified to create a mosque, the Babri Masjid.

In 2003, by the order of an Indian High Court, the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) was asked to conduct a more in-depth study and an excavation to ascertain whether the type of structure that was beneath the rubble indicated definite proof of a temple under the mosque. However, it could not be ascertained if it was a Rama temple, as the remnants had more resemblance to a Shiva temple. In the words of ASI researchers, they discovered "distinctive features associated with... temples of north India". Excavations further yielded: stone and decorated bricks as well as mutilated sculpture of a divine couple and carved architectural features, including foliage patterns, amalaka, kapota-pali ["dove-house" crown-work], doorjamb with semi-circular shrine pilaster, broken octagonal shaft of black schist pillar, lotus motif, circular shrine having pranala (water chute) in the north and 50 pillar bases in association with a huge structure.

On 5 February 2020, the Government of India made an announcement for a trust named as Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra to reconstruct a Ram temple there.

CULTURAL LANDSCAPE AND PERSPECTIVES FOR INCLUSIVE HERITAGE DEVELOPMENT ABSTRACT Religion had played a role for controlling power in Indian monarchy in the ancient past, and in contemporary India too it played a role in the formation of religious landscape and religious heritage, through commonly using processions, pilgrimage, religious assemblies, religious fairs (melā), and sacred places. Ayodhya-Faizabad represents an aesthetic and unique type of cultural landscape and heritage scape that include natural, cultural, tangible and intangible heritages, and variety of cultural landscapes. The city’s cultural landscapes, are illustrated with riverfront sacred scapes and faith scapes, sacred sites associated with Hindus, Jains, Sikhs, Buddhist and ever Sufis (and other Muslims), and several other small congregations. Ayodhya, being one of the most sacred places is known as the legendary capital of Rama; and nowadays one of the most important places of pilgrimage in India with special reference to its sacred cultural landscapes. Ayodhya, situated on the right bank of Ghaghara River (Sarayu).

Ayodhya records manifestation of the five kinds of “scapes” that are related to the gods and various deities making the city as sacred or religious Cultural Landscape: (i) the Sacred scapes that contain various sacred places, temples, chhavanis (religious places for marshal training) and ashrams (monasteries); (ii) the Ritual scapes carrying traditions of variety of the rituals performed by pilgrims (e.g. sacred bathing, offering, cremation, etc.); (iii) the Riverfront scapes consisting of the Ghats, stairways to waterfront; (iv)the holy Tank scapes/ Kund scapes, the kunda or sacred tank that plays an important role in Hindu’s purification rituals; and (v) Route scapes that historically and primarily consists of five pilgrimage routes, viz. Chaurasikroshi, Chaudahakroshi, Panchakroshi, Ramkot ki Parikrama and Antargrihi Parikrama –among these the two later are relatively less popular. Three major pilgrimage routes defining the three territorial limits of Ayodhya, are Chaurasikroshi (macrocosmos–outer space), Chaudahakroshi (mesocosmos–middle space), and Panchakroshi (microcosmos–inner space).

CULTURAL LANDSCAPE AND PERSPECTIVES FOR INCLUSIVE HERITAGE DEVELOPMENT Riverfront Ghats The banks of the Sarayu River at Ayodhya consists of a number of bathing places (ghats), and are counted as sacred and ritualistic places for Hindu adherents .Commonly, pilgrims perform four important rituals, i.e.snana (bathing), dhyana (meditation), dana (donation), and shradha (cremation)on the riverfront ghat(stairways to waterfront). Some of ghats are pakka, having flights of stone steps leading down to the river, while others are called kaccha, just mud bank. Svargadvara Ghat is the most famous ghat, where the pilgrims come for worship, take holy dip and perform other rituals (Kumar and Singh 2015).

Every ghat possesses individual historical, mythological, religious folk tales and spiritual importance. Svargadvara Ghat, ‘Door to the Heaven’, is the main ghat, which spreads between the Sahastradhara and the temple of Treta Ke Thakur, and is considered as the first tirtha established on the bank of the Sarayu River. According to the ancient text this holy place was established by Vishnu before his seventh incarnation as Rama. In his report, the archaeologist Alexander Cunningham describes Svargadvara as the place where body of Rama was cremated (last ritual).

CULTURAL LANDSCAPE AND PERSPECTIVES FOR INCLUSIVE HERITAGE DEVELOPMENT Pilgrimage Routes Ayodhya has developed five ritualistic pilgrimage routes in continuity of history, viz.

Chaurasikroshi, Chaudahakroshi, Panchakroshi, Ramkot ki Parikrama and Antargrihi Parikrama; among these the two later are relatively less popular. Three major pilgrimage routes define the three territorial limits of Ayodhya, viz. Chaurasikroshi, Chaudahakroshi, and Panchakroshi. Like most of the pan-Indian holy centres Ayodhya too displays a three-tier cosmology, respectively as macro (i.e. Mandala, the Outer one), meso (i.e. Kshetra, the Middle one), and micro (i.e. Puri/city, inner sanctum) cosmos; and all are demarcated by routes and linked archetypally by temples/shrines and are described in the ancient mythologies, which are frequently cited in various rituals and group-chanting and sacred walks.

ARCHITECTURAL FUNCTIONS OF A GURUKUL (SCHOOL) The orientation, the plan arrangement, the design of the building, and the materials used can contribute to the quality of comfort achieved and to the economy.

Consider the following: 1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

6.

Plan:-Less room and exterior wall exposure in a compact, multistory building will cost less to heat and cool than a sprawling, one story arrangement of equal area and cubage. A plan consisting of predominantly interior classroom spaces and peripheral corridors provides flexibility of space and economies in heating and cooling.

Orientation:-Classroom windows facing east or west receive excessive heat from the sun. Although this fact assists heating in cold weather, the cooling problem is generally greater. As a general rule, it is preferable to face the majority of rooms north or south.

Space conditioning:-Skillful use of lighting, acoustic materials, and color and form in school design are essential ingredients of conditioning space in the learning environment and, properly applied, act upon our senses of sight and hearing to cause reactions conducive to better learning and teaching.

Lighting:-Good lighting design involves locating illumination sources so that work areas receive adequate light free of glare and excessive contrast or shadow. Both natural and artificial light must be controllable to eliminate glaring shafts of sunlight or to darken the room for projecting pictures.

Colors:-Color is a psychological aid to learning. Tastefully used, it can enhance environment, engendering a cheerful, receptive mood. Bright, warm colors stimulate excitement and action in the gymnasium; soft, cool colors create a quiet atmosphere in places of study.

Form:-The physical shapes of our surroundings also have psychological effects which can favorably influence learning. Large rooms, such as the library, cafeteria, or auditorium require higher ceilings, for a sense of airy freedom, than do small offices and conference rooms; corridors should be offset, widened occasionally, and given a view in order to avoid the feeling of interminable constricting length.

28

Organization of Spaces There are many ways to organize the spaces for a school into a plan, and many determinants to consider, beginning with the basic purpose of the specific teaching program and the children to be served. But even this basic premise may have to be considered in the context of how flexible the plan may be made to anticipate the possibility, or rather the probability, that the school could convert to some other organizational structure.

Pupil capacity Some schools do not like to exceed 25 pupils per class. It is frequently recommended that when a class goes to 32 pupils it be divided into two sections with two teachers. It is also advisable in determining the capacity of an elementary school to consider each grade separately so that there will be no single classroom housing more than one grade.

High Schools Determining capacity on the secondary school level is considerably more complex than on the elementary school level. Capacity in a good secondary school reflects the kind of educational program and the educational goals of the community.

The character of the classroom and the subject are determinants of the classroom size.

Physical education classes may run to 35or40 students; shop classes should not exceed 20 students. Many other areas should not exceed 25 students and might, more likely, hold 20 pupils, including science rooms, homemaking, and fine arts. These class sizes maybe adjusted from community to community, but for comparative purposes it would be helpful to maintain a standard formula for determining capacity

लोकाभिरामं रणरं गधीरं राजीवनेत्रं रघुवंशनाथम्। कारुण्यरूपं करुणाकरं तं श्रीरामचन्द्रं शरणं प्रपद्ये।।

29

CLASSROOMS (for vedas, vedangas and hetuvidya ) GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL CLASSROOMS:Design 1. Sufficient space is needed near the front of the room for setting up audiovisual equipment, such as projection screens and charts.

2. Ceilings should be a minimum of 9'ft high.

3. Light from windows should, if possible, come over a pupil's left shoulder. No teacher should be required to face the windows when addressing the class from the normal teaching position.

4. Ceilings and/or walls should be acoustically treated.

5. Floors should have a cushioning material.

Location:- The classroom should have as quiet a location as possible, away from noisy out door areas. Ease of access to specialized facilities outside the academic unit should be ensured.

Light Control:- Color films, television, and slides are becoming more and more widely used.

Darkening curtains or light-tight blinds should be provided for light control in all teaching areas. The architect should give careful consideration to the problem of darkening clerestories, skylights, and other sources of light. Consideration might be given to the type of venetian blinds that ride in side channels and are easier to operate and to clean than other blinds.

Sizes :-Recommended classroom sizes for elementary schools range from 850 to 1,150 sq. ft.

High school classrooms may range from 750 to 900 sq. ft. In some instances where large group teaching or team teaching is taking place, double classrooms may be desirable. In other instances, regular classrooms may be divided by the use of a folding partition which has a satisfactory acoustical separation.

Standard size

10-15 pupils

64 table-armed chairs

STORAGES FACILITIES 1.

2.

Storage space for each group using the classroom should be provided with locks.

Storage is needed for the following items:-paper pencils, scriptures, books, clothes, bead malas and bags and other needs.

3. A standard storage closet, either of metal or wood shall be provided and recommended for the classrooms.

STUDENT LOCKERS Lockers may be concentrated in several conveniently located areas (Fig. 65). These areas are completely open and the wide spaces between rows provide comfortable circulation. This type of locker arrangement eliminates congestion in corridors and frees corridor walls for display and vision panels. As locker alcoves are difficult to supervise, it is essential to provide complete circulation around the entire space.

Another way of treating locker installation in a high school is shown in Fig. 66. The lockers have been concentrated in two areas near the entrance and student center. The areas have been left open with ample space for comfortable circulation.

Restrooms are adjacent to the locker area, which may reduce corridor traffic and save student time.

Each student is assigned a security locker for books and personal items.

31

SHILPA VIDYAS ART AND CRAFTS Working surface, and lots of it, by way of counters and tables is a basic requirement, as is wall space for display and storage cabinetry. Figure 99 shows a well-equipped, typical general art room with sinks (X squares) in the perimeter counterwork, allowing flexibility for various table and desk combinations. Figure 100 shows a larger art suite, with no windows and all kinds of wall space, artificially well lit, with a storage core and peninsula sinks, but otherwise open, flexible space utilizing 7-ft-high storage units as dividers of functions.

Corridors flank the art suite shown in Figure 101 that develops as an interior core unit related to typical classrooms along the corridors. Glass over the work counters allows the creative activities to be seen from the corridors, showcasing an attractive interest center.

MUSIC ROOMS The size, shape, and construction material are important factors to consider in planning and designing music facilities for the best sound control possible. The architect should aim for rooms that have optimum reverberation time, even distribution of sound, and freedom from undesirable absorption at certain pitches.

It should have sound-tight doors, natural lighting, lavatory, and a dressing table. A chalk board ruled for music, bulletin board, piano, and tablet armchairs will be needed.

35

STUDENT RESIDENCES Halls of residence are normally provided near colleges and universities for students and are normally built and operated in various architectural forms (20-30 units in courtyard layout or groups of open structures, large buildings with 80 or more units). They are used for the accommodation of students for the duration of their course. The size and equipping of the rooms is often very limited. Options such as single rooms, (double) flats and flat sharing groups have proved successful. The arrangement and design of the communal areas within and around the residences are decisive for their acceptance.

Requirements Student flats are 'living places' and not considered as residential homes in the sense of the building regulations. The general requirements of the building regulations essentially concern residential rooms with minimum requirements for floor area (8 m2), ceiling height (2.40 m), orientation, ventilation and lighting (window area Ys of the room area), accessibility requirements (i.e. for disabled people) and escape routes (two independent escape routes from each floor, one of which is a legally essential stairway). The state guidelines for student residences set recommended dimensions for living places (approx. 12 m2 for single rooms and approx. 16 m2 for flats). In addition to this, a certain area will be required for communal use.

Forms of living These can be categorized into flat sharing and individual rooms. When flats are shared, the communal area is of more importance, similar to a home. A group of rooms (4-8) with some functions transferred to the communal area (kitchen, bathroom) has a linear or central type of layout.

36

KITCHENS AND DINNING The size and equipment depends on the catering system, food service and return of plates.

For young pupils meals may be served at table (portions possibly served by the teacher) otherwise self-service (from conveyor, counter, cafeteria line, free-flow cafeteria, turntable etc.). Serving capacity: from 5-15 meals/minute or 250-1000 meals/hour with varied personnel requirement.

Space required for serving system approx. 40--60 m2. Dining room size depends on number of pupils and sittings, per seat min. 1.20-1.40 m2. Larger areas should be partitioned into smaller rooms. At entrance, provide one washbasin per 40 seats

लोकाभिरामं रणरं गधीरं राजीवनेत्रं रघुवंशनाथम्। कारुण्यरूपं करुणाकरं तं श्रीरामचन्द्रं शरणं प्रपद्ये।।

37

SANITATION FACILITIES AND Circulation and escape routes Horizontal and vertical access routes are normally also emergency escape routes. Escape routes must have a clear width of min. 1.00 m/150 people but min. width of corridors in classroom areas is 2.00 m, or 1.25 m with up to 180 people. Stairs in classroom areas must be 1 .25 m wide, other escape routes 1 .00 m wide. Max. length of escape routes: 25 m measured in a straight line from the stairwell door to the farthest work place, or 30 m in an indirect line to the center of the room. Capacity of stairs dependent on number of users and average occupancy, e.g. stair width: 0.80 m for each 100 people (min. 1.25 m, but not wider than 2.50 m).

Sanitary facilities The necessary WCs, urinals and washbasins are provided according to the total number of pupils (divided between boys and girls) according to the school building guidelines. One washbasin is provided for every boys' WC or for every two girls' WCs. Toilets should be as directly lit and ventilated as possible. The accesses for girls and boys are to be separate.

DIVYAANG (DIFFERENTLY ABLED) FACILITIES Sleeping and Study Quarters (Fig. 1) Space There must be a minimum clear floor space in such areas of 6' [183 cm] by 6' [183 cm] enabling a 360° turn by a wheelchair.

Working Area Space clearance under counter, table, and desk tops to be used by a wheelchair student shall be a minimum of 27.5 " [69.8 cm] in height and 32" [81.3 cm] in width.

Beds shall have minimum dimensions of 3' [92cm] by6‘ [183 cm] and between 19" [48.3 cm] and 22" [55.9 cm] in mattress height from floor level. Handles and Switches Protruding desk and dresser drawer handles shall be installed. Switches for electrical fixtures and equipment shall be of a toggle or push-button type or equipped with pull-chains of a minimum length of 15" [38 cm].

Closets Where one closet is provided for each occupant, the clothes bar should provide two different heights. Three-quarters of the total length should be at 52" [132 cm] and the remaining quarter at 62" [157.5 cm]. To achieve this, the lower bar, three-quarters of the total length, can be suspended from the higher bar. Wall hooks shall be installed within a height range of 40" [101.6 cm] to 56" [142.2 cm]. Shelves of various height intervals shall be installed on the side-closed wall. The top shelf shall not exceed 45" [114.3 cm] in height.

Shelves above the clothes bars shall be provided for long-term storage. (See Fig. 2.)

RECREATION FACILITIES Site Location Considerations:- These criteria for recreation areas, such as relation to adjacent property, soil stability and percolation, existing vegetation, existing topography, etc., are important; however, special attention should be given to the need for large open spaces for field games with adjacent existing vegetation to provide shade, oxygen, and windbreak.

Recreational Facility Layout In creating a unique layout for a site, consider these factors:1. Optimum orientation for sun and wind control 2. Circulation for players and spectators 3. Buffer zones between action spaces 4. Access from community where multiuse is possible 5. Flexibility of layout and accommodation of staging or building expansion 6. Programming of play and learning experiences for younger children 7. Supervision and safety 8. Grading and slope for drainage (or underdrainage) 9. Existing relationship to nearby community facilities 10. Need for balance of action spaces with provision of quiet open spaces

PLANTING Plant material for school sites generally consists of shade trees, ornamental trees, evergreen trees and shrubs, deciduous shrubs, vines, and ground covers Though some of the ground-covering material on most school sites functionally is mowed grass, this material remains one of the highest maintenance types. It is recommended that its use be kept to the necessary minimum and the use of meadow and prairie grasses and other types of ground-covering materials be considered. Select plant material on the basis of its mature size and character to minimize excessive shearing and early replacement. Initial sizes should not be less than a reasonable minimum to ensure survival from injury or damage by students and other causes. In addition to providing an aesthetic contribution plant material on the school site can be used to solve many problems such as windbreaks, screens and buffers, sound dampers, sun and light controls, erosion control, and air purification.

DRAINAGE Proper storm drainage is essential to successful school-site facilities in most areas of the country. Not only do the function and longevity of many facilities and materials depend on good drainage, but in some cases permanent damage may result from water. Surface and subsurface systems or combinations should be designed to adequately handle the needs of building sand site facilities. Where possible, an overland emergency system should be incorporated, using the relative grade elevations of the site. When circumstances do not permit this, a standby system of pumps or power generators is recommended.

GOSHALA (LITREATURE STUDY) Gaushalas or Goshalas are protective shelters for cows in India. Goshalas focus on treating cows well, because of their religious significance in Hinduism and consequent cultural sensitivity towards their welfare.

In Rigveda, cow is reffered as aganya (one which must never be killed) Goshala, a Sanskrit word ("Go" means cow and "Shala" means a shelter place: Go + Shala = shelter for cows), means the abode or sanctuary for cows, calves and oxen.

The first Gaurakshini sabha (cow protection society) was established in Punjab in 1882. The movement spread rapidly all over North India and to Bengal, Bombay, Madras presidencies and other central provinces. The organization rescued wandering cows and reclaimed them to groom them in places called gaushalas. Charitable networks developed all through North India to collect rice from individuals, pool the contributions, and re-sell them to fund the gaushalas.

Signatures, up to 350,000 in some places, were collected to demand a ban on cow sacrifice.[5] Between 1880 and 1893, hundreds of gaushalas were opened.[6] Today, Punjab Gaushala Mahasangh coordinates these activities in the Punjab.

SOME KNOWN FOUNDATIONS WORKING ON GOSHALAS:• Govardhan Ecovillage Goshala is home to 104 beautiful cows, bulls and their calves.

• The Art of Living Goshala - Preserving Indigenous Cows.

• Vrindavan chandrodaya mandir, Vrindavan.

GOSHALA (GUIDELINES ,STANDARDS)

CLIMATE IN ANIMAL HOUSING 'Climate' includes the factors temperature, humidity, air movement, air composition, light, ventilation, window area, building volume, orientation of building and its thermal insulation. The air intake speed should be between 2.0 and 5.0 m/s according to the width of the building. Ventilation systems are divided into convection ventilation and forced ventilation.

PARKING STANDARDS As/ Ayodhya-faizabad development Aurthority

The type, size and design of a place where vehicles can turn depend on the particular use of an area, the vehicles and the urban planning function. It is difficult to make generally valid recornrnendations for the selection of the correct turning place. The requirements of the fire services and refuse disposal trucks have to be considered in turning place decisions.

Some authorities responsible for waste disposal decline to remove rubbish from dead-end streets where refuse disposal trucks can only perform a three-point turn or have to drive backwards for considerable distances. Turning places can be formed as hammerheads turning circles or turning loops.

Hammerheads demand maneuvers such as three-point turns, so turning circles and loops are preferable as they allow trucks to turn in one swing.

Turning places should for practical reasons be laid out asymmetrically to the left.

44

PARKING STANDARDS Parking spaces are usually outlined by 12-20 mm wide yellow or white painted lines. When parking is facing a wall, these lines are often painted at a height of up to 1 m for better visibility. Guide rails in the floor along the side have also proved popular for demarcation of parking limits, and can be about 50-60 cm long, 20 cm wide and 10 cm high.

Where vehicles are parked in lines facing walls or at the edge of the parking deck in a multistorey car park, it is common practice to provide buffers, restraining bars or railings up to axle height to prevent cars from going over the edge. Where cars are parked face to face, transverse barriers about 10 cm high can be used to act as stops at the front.

लोकाभिरामं रणरं गधीरं राजीवनेत्रं रघुवंशनाथम्। कारुण्यरूपं करुणाकरं तं श्रीरामचन्द्रं शरणं प्रपद्ये।।

45

PARKING STANDARDS If individual parking spaces are bordered by pillars, walls or columns, then the width of the parking space on the relevant side is increased by 0.10 m. If parking spaces are bounded by a footpath, cycle way or separation strip on the facing side via a kerb, then the kerb will be used to estimate the border of the parking space. The examples show how parking spaces can be integrated into their surroundings by design elements without impairing their function. To increase open areas, parking spaces can be partly or completely lowered or provided with green roofs. The greening not only has design value but also provides shadow and improves the ecological situation (dust absorption).

VEHICULAR AND PEDESTRIAN MOVEMENT EXTERNAL CIRCULATION Vehicular traffic must be restricted to places near entry points and all other zones should be kept pedestrian friendly.

All the roads inside the campus should have sufficient width of at least 9m , So that vehicular access can also be provided in special cases.

PATHWAYS • Without proper planning, an unorganized and haphazard system of paths will be constructed that results in a pedestrian movement network that functions in a confusing manner.

• The presence of a distinctive pathway hierarchy that is characterized by a range of path widths, paving materials, and landscape treatments assists with way finding and user orientation, and allows the user to clearly perceive the spatial organization of the campus environment.

PEDESTRIANS • In campus distance to reach to blocks should be walkable .

• If for certain reasons the distance gets long then separate pedestrian is provided for vehicular traffic .

• Vehicular road is suppose to be maintained well.

• Pedestrian paths should be safe, attractive, and inviting and should provide direct connections between places.

• The approach to the buildings from road/street/internal means of access shall be through paved pathway of width not less than 1.5 m, provided its length is not more than 30 m.

• Include amenities such as signs, benches, trash, and lighting as components of the pathway system, particularly in area of heavy use, but allow for safe and efficient movement within 5 feet of pathway edge.

• Strengthen the axial relationships by planting linear rows of trees and installing vertical lighting, and terminate the “spine” at important architectural features or open landscapes. लोकाभिरामं रणरं गधीरं राजीवनेत्रं रघुवंशनाथम्। कारुण्यरूपं करुणाकरं तं श्रीरामचन्द्रं शरणं प्रपद्ये।।

SAAR (ABSTRACT) In the Ramayana, the forest in general is described as shanta (calm), madhura (sweet), raudra (anger) and vibhatsa (fearful), which reflect the four sentiments that dominate the entire forest environment. There are thick forests, namely Chitrakuta, Dandaka-aranya, Panchavati, Kishkindha (Pampa sarovar) and Lanka. The descriptions in the Ramayana reflect the supremacy of nature. The area of its scope ranges from Ayodhya in modern Uttar Pradesh to Sri Lanka. Hence, it gives us a comprehensive idea of the different natural regions that fall within this area. The area covers four major ecosystems: tropical deciduous forest, dry and moist deciduous forest, evergreen tropical forests of Lanka and alpine region semi forests (Himalayan). There are around 182 species found in Ramayan, some of them are :-

CONSIDERATIONS FOR PLANTING AS PER SOIL TYPE Loamy Soil Loam is the fourth type of soil. It is a combination of sand, silt and clay such that the beneficial properties from each is included. For instance, it has the ability to retain moisture and nutrients; hence, it is more suitable for farming. This soil is also referred to as agricultural soil as it includes an equilibrium of all three types of soil materials being sandy, clay, and silt and it also happens to have humus. Apart from these, it also has higher calcium and pH levels because of its inorganic origins.

Sandy loam describes the ideal soil composition for most garden plants. (Some plants like sandy or rocky soil, and some even like clay.) Loam holds nutrients for feeding plants and has a texture that retains water long enough for plant roots to access it, yet it is welldraining, meaning that the water eventually flows away so the roots do not sit in water and rot. Without good soil, plants struggle to survive and usually require extra feeding and watering.

Loamy soil is a mixture of clay, sand and silty particles. It retains both moisture and nutrients, and is one of the best soils for growing plants. Loamy soil is a good growing environment for the red oak, white and green ash, sugar and red maple, white cedar, European larch, Norway spruce, white spruce and poplar.

LANDSCAPING DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS FOR INSTITUTIONAL LANDSCAPING, open area can be dividing into two well defined areas.

1- First, the portion of the ground adjacent to the building:• the drives and walks should be primary structures in order to give quick access from the points of approach to the entrance of the building.

• Planting treatment of the institutional ground should be simple.

• The institutional building is usually large and, hence, it is better to rely upon a fewer number of specimens of sufficient size to establish a proper relation between the planting and the type of building.

• Selection of trees and their location should depend upon the architectural style of the building and by the requirements of shape.

• Trees and shrubs with fruits and nuts or with dangerous thrones should not be used.

2- The remainder of the area, usually at the rear of the building, should be developed for recreation.

• The recreation area is generally kept at the back of the building or, if sufficient area exists by the side of the building, this can also be utilized for the purpose. Recreation areas are planted with trees after careful consideration.

• Use of shred trees is restricted to the borders of the area, away from the land used for game courts and the athletic fields.

• For a play ground however, it is advisable to plant shade trees so that the games equipment can be set up the shade.

• In the recreation area, the use of cement or brick is inadvisable due to injuries it could cause during active games.

• The lawn areas should be planted with hardy grasses.

• In order or enhance the beauty and attractiveness of the building, certain areas can have the best lawns, seasonal flowers, bulbous plants, rear and pretty shrubs and arches and pergolas covered with climbers.

LANDSCAPING STANDARDS FOR LANDSCAPING, • for every 550 square feet of landscape area--- One tree and three shrubs shall be provided.

• Tree lawn areas, parking lot landscape areas and landscape buffer areas are counted separately and independently from this requirement.

• In situations where it is not possible to plant a tree, trees may be replaced at a ratio of 10 shrubs or 20 ornamental grasses to one tree.

• Landscape areas shall have a minimum of 50 percent living ground cover within 5 years of installation.

• One ornamental tree ---every 20 lineal feet or one shade tree ---every 35 lineal feet.

• Four shrubs shall be provided for every 20 lineal feet.

• A ground cover shall be placed over the entire landscaped area.

ARTICLE SOURCE:- https://ezinearticles.com/expert/Ravikumar_Uppaluri/2008 Hindu temples are generally associated with trees such as Ficus benghalensis, Ficus Religiosa, Aegle marmelos, Azardirachta indica, Temple tree, Bauhinia spp, etc, Herbs such as Vinca rosea, Nerium spp etc.The gigantic trees like ficus spp and some other trees are closely associated with temples since time immemorial. The mixed fragrance, the flowers and the leaf litter on the ground gives a pleasant experience to a pilgrim or tourist.

Assymmetry should be the rule while designing landscaping near these temples. The asymmetric garden should have abundant representation of Tree species such as Ficus, Neem, Wood apple, Alexandrian laurel, Jack Fruit, Mango etc spread in a random manner.

Small patches of herbs like Ocimum, Vinca, Jasmine can be grown for the daily usage of pilgrims needs for praying to the god. Another beautiful attraction to the temple garden can be artificially created pool for growing nelumbium spp which is considered the flower associated with gods.

The asymmetric style and a large representation of trees is ecologically significant as these support and house numerous birds and other organisms.Birds like parrots, cuckoos, woodpecker and occasional monkeys, squirrels all add to a natural feeling and oneness with nature.

CLIMATE ANALYSIS (for composite climate) ORIENTATION 1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

The ideal orientation of buildings in an educational campus is on an east-west axis with rectangular proportion of 1.5 to 2 (east-west) and 1(north south).

This orientation maximizes the intake of north light on one façade.

On average, south facing glass should be 10-25% of the floor area of each building.

South-facing glazing with sun screens and shading devices can reduce solar heat gain and increase day lighting and glare control.

The use of skylights (e.g. adjustable, conventional or tubular), view windows, clerestories, light shelves and controlled lighting all contribute positively.

VENTILATION Natural ventilation: The rate of ventilation by natural means through windows or other openings depends on: 1.

Direction and velocity of wind outside and sizes and disposition of openings (wind action) 2.

Convection effects arising from temperature of vapour pressure difference (or both) between inside and outside the room and the difference of height between the outlet and inlet openings (stack effect).

By wind action: 1.

A building need not necessarily be oriented perpendicular to the prevailing outdoor wind.

2.

It may be oriented at any convenient angle between 0° and 30° without loosing any beneficial aspect of the breeze.

3.

If the prevailing wind is from East or West, building may be oriented at 45° to the incident wind so as to diminish the solar heat without much reduction in air motion indoors.

53

CLIMATE ANALYSIS (for composite climate) VENTILATION

BY STACK EFFECT: • Natural ventilation by stack effect occurs when air inside a building is at a different temperature than air outside.

• Thus in heated buildings or in buildings cool outside air will tend to enter through openings at low level and warm air will tend to leave through openings at high level.

COURTYARDS:- Courtyard should be designed in such a way so as to allow sun penetration during the winter months, but provides shading in the hot season.

CONTROL OF OPENINGS:- A gap between the building face and canopy would ensure a downward pressure , thus a flow is directed into the living zones.

POSITION OF OPENINGS In buildings air movement must be ensured through the space mostly used by occupants; through the living zone (up to 2m height).

ARCHITECTURE STYLE OF MAIN TEMPLE The main structure of the temple will be built on a raised platform and will have three storeys. It will have five mandapas in the middle of the garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum) and the entry — the three mandapas Kudu, Nritya, and Rang; and two mandapas for the Kirtan and Prarthana on the other side. In Nagara style, the mandapas are to be decorated with shikhara. The tallest Shikhara will be that above the Garbhagriha. The building will have a total of 366 columns. The columns will have 16 idols each to include the incarnations of Shiva, the Dashavataras, the chausath joginis, and the 12 incarnations of the goddess Saraswati. The width of the stairs will be 16 feet. In accordance with scriptures dedicated to the design of temples dedicated to Vishnu, the sanctum sanctorum will be octagonal.

The basic form of a Hindu temple contains the following architectural elements: Garbhagriha – the small room where the principal deity/deities of the temple reside Mandapa – the portico or hall at the entrance of the temple generally designed to house a large number of people Shikhara – the mountain like spire which can have different shapes from pyramidal to curvilinear Vahana – the mount of the main deity placed generally in line of sight from Garbhagriha This is called the phamsana-style shikhara.

55

NAGARA ARCHITECTURE: Nagara is the style of temple architecture which became popular in Northern India.  It is common here to build an entire temple on a stone platform with steps leading up to it.  Unlike in south India, it doesn’t usually have elaborate boundary walls or gateways.  Earliest temples had only one shikhara (tower), but in the later periods, multiple shikharas came.  The garbhagriha is always located directly under the tallest tower.

Subdivisions of Nagara Style:Rekha-prasada/Latina: Simple shikhara with square base and whose walls slope inwards to a point on top. The tallest tower was at the centre and the garbhagriha was directly beneath it.

Phamsana: Roofs composed of many slabs that gently rise to a single point over the building’s centre. Phamsana structures are generally broader and shorter than latina ones.

In many temples, the latina type is used to house the garbhagriha whereas the mandapa has a Phamsana style of architecture.

Valabhi: Rectangular buildings with a roof that rises into a vaulted chamber. Also called wagon-vaulted buildings.

VASTU SHASTRA AND PLANNING PRINCIPLES Vastu shastra (vāstu śāstra - literally "science of architecture") is a traditional Indian system of architecture originating in India. Texts from the Indian subcontinent describe principles of design, layout, measurements, ground preparation, space arrangement, and spatial geometry. Vastu Shastras incorporate traditional Hindu and (in some cases) Buddhist beliefs.

The designs aim to integrate architecture with nature, the relative functions of various parts of the structure, and ancient beliefs utilising geometric patterns (yantra), symmetry, and directional alignments.

The foundation of vastu is traditionally ascribed to the mythical sage Mamuni Mayan who is believed to be first author and the creator of vasthu shastra and expert in vastu constructions of ancient times. Mayan is the one of the five sons of Vishwakarma.

Layout of a Hindu temple pursues a geometrical design known as vastupurusha-mandala, the name of which is derived from the three vital components of the design namely Vastu meaning Vaas or a place of dwelling; Purusha, meaning the Universal principle; and Mandala meaning circle. Vastupurushamandala is a mystical diagram referred in Sanskrit as a Yantra.

Vastu Tips for Schools The entrance of the School: Whether it is a school or any institution of knowledge, the entrance should be in the east or north direction. Having an entrance in these directions is considered auspicious.

Location for the Prayer Hall: There is always a prayer hall in the school, where all the students gather and start their day with a prayer. It can be a big hall or a ground built in North-east direction to get maximum benefits and better concentration.

Placement of Classrooms: The classrooms must be built in such a manner that they are facing east or north direction. Similarly, the seating arrangement should be in a way that students face east or north side of the classroom.

Location for the Kitchen and Canteen: The appropriate location for the canteen and kitchen is in the South-east direction and serving must be done facing east side. These directions encourage fulfilment, gains and provide contentment and happiness.

VERNACULAR ARCHITECTURE (COMPOSITE CLIMATE) Following measures can be taken in Composite climate region:• Orientation and placement: To minimize the sun exposure in summer.

• Form: Compact to reduce surface areas of heat gains.

• Shade: For maximum sun protection in summer.

• Allow adequate heat gain in winter by movable shading devices.

• Ventilation: For regulation of air movement.

ORIENTATION: • The orientation of the houses should be such that, penetration of the sun rays maximum in winter and minimum in summer. Proper orientation also helps in receiving natural light and ventilation.

• In composite climate the orientation of the buildings is preferable in North-East & SouthWest Directions.

• This helps in receiving less radiations which results in lesser heat gain & reduces the overall air conditioning requirement & thus saves energy WATER BODIES: • Water absorbs relatively large amounts of radiation. It also allow evaporative cooling.

As a result, during the daytime areas around water bodies are generally cooler. At night, however, water bodies release relatively large amounts of heat to the surroundings.

58

VERNACULAR ARCHITECTURE (COMPOSITE CLIMATE) CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUES OPENINGS: • To reduce the humidity and for ventilation openings (i.e. doors, windows, ventilators and corridors) are provided large in numbers.

SIZE OF OPENINGS: • A small inlet opening with a large outlet provides the largest air velocity. The best arrangement is full wall openings on both the sides, with adjustable sashes or closing devices which can assist in channeling the airflow in the required direction, following the change of wind.

COURTYARD: • Courtyard should be deisigned in such a way so as to allow sun penetration during the winter months, but provides shading in the hot season.

PROJECTIONS: • Large projecting eaves and wide verandahs are needed in composite climate as out-door living areas, to reduce sky glare, keep out the rain and provide shades.

JALIS: • Jalis on the outer facade of the building helps in cooling, shading and ventilation.

PLINTH: • High plinth is provided to prevent the rainwater for coming inside the building.

In the spread of 13.5 acres, variety can bee seen in the plants, shrubs and trees. Mango, teak and ashoka tree has domination in the campus because the wood of mango tree here used fuel for cooking of food. Ashoka tree mostly around the academic block and old building hostel block. Also there is less number of flowering tree or plants in the campus.

One special tree found in the campus (as per discussion with caretaker) ;SAHJAN (moringa oleifera).

CULTURAL CONTEXT According to the vedic gurukul culture, 5 shalas is required for gurukul:1.

Paathshala- education space

2.

Yagyashala- hawan kund and temple area

3.

Gohshala- cow shelter

4.

Paakshala- kitchen and dinning

5.

Dharamshala- residences

In the present building of gurukul, all the 5 SHALAS are given and maintained too.

ART AND ARCHITECTURE As per building facades and colors used for the maximum blocks, not so much influence of art and cultural impact of Ayodhya can be seen. The color of maximum block is white and looks like white washed only and doors and windows also of very simple designs. Some artistic skills like mosaic tiling is used in yagyashala and sitting platforms.
