I am a fourth-year student pursuing bachelors of architecture from Aayojan school of architecture, Jaipur. I percieve that architecture is not only about designing building and spaces, it is all about experiencing the space and its aura. I am curious and enthusiastic person and in my early experiences of life I have always tried to explore and learn to nd out my maximum potential. I am facinated even by smallest detail possible with a never ceasing will to aquire more and enhance.

BAGRU RESEARCH CENTRE

ABOUT THE PROJECT Location: Bagru, Jaipur Total area: 500 sq. m Climate: Composite Topography: Flat land with negligible slope

Temporary structure in bagru

Bagru is known for natural dyes and indigo dyeing and wooden gand block printing over textile article. Bagru print- a handblock printing technique to print and dye clothes. Using traditional dyes like color blue from indigo. î &#x201C;is technique started around 450 years back in Bagru. î &#x201C;is is the oldest technique in India, motifs used in printing owers, birds, tendrils, trellis, or jaal design.

Challenges & Opportunities 1. To understand how availability of local materials like mud, stone, wood etc. 2. Evolution of optimum infrastructure with multipurpose spaces. 3. Usage of passive technique. 4. To understand how built and unbuilt spaces can together be use and socialize.

FORENSIC LABORATORY

ABOUT THE PROJECT

A forensic science laboratory is a scientiic laboratory specialising in forensic science. Such laboratories may be run by private companies or the government but are often associated with the law enforcement infrastructure of a country.

DNA Strand

Location: Agra Bharatpur Road Total area: 5000 sq. m Climate: Composite Topography: Flat land with negligible slope Semester: 6th

Challenges & Opportunities: 1. Coordination of vertical stacks in a plan having diďŹ&#x20AC;erent functional spaces. 2. To evolve an inclusive built environment with optimal utilisation of infrastructure. 3. Design in accordance to an organisational set-up and evolving built form ensuring the same.

INDUCTION CENTRE

ABOUT THE PROJECT Location: Sitapura Industrial Area, Sitapura, Jaipur Total area: 5000 sq. m Climate: Composite Topography: Flat land with negligible slope Semester: 6th

In human resource development, induction training is a form of introduction for new employees in order to enable them to do their work in a new profession or job role within an organisation. Induction training is systematic training. î &#x201C;e systematic model supplements natural learning with a systematic intervention that relates to the organisations objectives

Design strategies:

Leisure areas in between two or three rooms

building core training block admin block

Interactive spaces on each accomodation oor and jali in the direction of wind direction to cool down the hot air

Room with zigzag layout because people who are sharing room can certainly have a adequate amount of privacy

MEASURED DRAWING In the culturally aﬄuent village of Momasar, at a distance of 120m from the heart of the town the 100-year-old 7 Dari Haveli anchors the true essence of Shekhawati culture.is symmetrically planned haveli is embellished with delightful frescoes and artistic creations. Colonnaded and adorned with dhola’s (arches), shuttered windows and frescos depicting the images of Gods, the life of the owner and local warriors, the haveli is a haven of grandeur. e place has its own quaint charm and once you behold these majestic havelis, you are rooted to the spot in sheer amazement.

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE SITE

He signiiicance of site and all the spaces of haveli changes

entirely with the advent of festivals.as said â&#x20AC;&#x153;the greatness of a

culture can be found in its festivals - the Shekhawati utsav. Attracting thousands of people. The festival serves as a

platform for root musician to showcase the best oftheir tredi-

tions. during the festival, the back gate linked to the market

open to serve as the entrance to maidan of haveli. The maidan

is all decked up with theb stalls selling local handicraftsa small

stage built in the foreground is used to condusct performances while the courtyard is resonated with the voices of folk artist.

People also climb up to the irst loor as it offers a clear

FLOORING DETAILS

G+2 structure comprising mainly of a sunken irst loor and a terrace.

TERRACE The terrace had four mumptyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at the

four corners for storing beddings for sleeping at night

FIRST FLOOR The irst loor also had residential

quarters and an open terrace for the women of the house

GROUND FLOOR Acted as the main residential area

SUNKEN FLOOR Used for the domestic helpers and to

accomodate catle and livestock owned by the family

Details at courtyard

Though the number of erotic frescoes were few, they were not connined to the interiors. Those that have survived the puritanical backlash can still be found on almost all parts of the haveli.

7 DARI HAVELI

A 7 dari haveli is the one which has three arched entrances on either side of the center wall leading to a tibari. The basic method involves dividing the courtyard into 7 zones verically and horizontaly and accordingly the doors and windows are placed.

CONSTRUCTION

P R O C E S S

Excavation Excavation for foundation was carried out manually using mattock and hoe. A square of2m x2m was setout on the ground and then excavated. e excavated surface was level led and nished using water level tubeand trowels. Soling Soling was done by bricks and rubbles stones. Stones of size about 25mm were laid closely to

get a well packed layer and the layer is then compacted

2 P.C.C. Bed

Over soling plain cement concrete (PCC) is used to provide rigid impervious bed to RCC in foundation where the earth is soft and yielding. Concrete og grade M20 was mixed and used to cast PCC bed.

Curing : Water was poured on PCC bed for 7 days to cure concrete. Marking For Columns

6 Shuttering of Footing.

Concrete lling Concrete mix of grade M20 was made to cast footing of thickness 0.15M.

8 Shuttering of Columns.

Casting of Columns Concrete mix of grade M25 was made and 3 columns were casted. 2 columns with combined footing and another with sloped footing.

10 Reinforced Brick Column

After casting footinh for column, we begin with laying bricks for columns on main steel bars. Passed through the groves in brick. A layer of mortar (ration 1:6) was applied between two consecutive bricks to bind them.

4 Footing Reinforcement

e reinforcement bars werw tied into a JALL. Bars werw tied into 3 JALLS : one fore combine footing (1.8m X 0.8m) one for slope footing (1.8m X 0.8m) and one for step footing (0.8m X 0.8m)

Curing : The cast column is properly cured for 7-10 days. Welding Reinforcement for Shell roof is shell was cunstructed using 2- 20mm horizontal bars attached to curved steel bars of 16mm diameter. Later 8mm bars were used to make internal criss cross reinforcement.

13 Welding Shell roof to Column bars. 5

Reinforcement of Column e position of column was marked on footing reinforcement. Longituunal bars were rst tied to footing then stirrups were tied to the vertical bars.

Finalising the Structure..

CONSTRUCTION OF REINFORCED CONCRETE SHELL STRUCTURE

Reinforcement for shell rooong is welded to the reinforcement bars of columns.

Hyperbolic paraboloid shell

Reinforced brick columns

ese shells are constructed using cement concrete incorporated with reinforcement. is shell was constructed using 2 20mm horizontal bars attached to curved steel bars of 16mm diameter. Later 8mm bars were used to make internal criss cross reinforcement layout

e columns can be constructed by brick masonry by incorporating reinforcement into the same. is process of placing reinforcement in brick masonry will help in the increase in the load bearing capacity of the column. Special grooved bricks are employed that will have the provision for the placement of the reinforcement.
