Building Typology Traditional Characteristic Of Shah Style Building • Residential buildings having three & half stories with slope roofs • Built with burnt clay bricks with mud mortar & thicker walls • Vertically elongated wooden openings of medieval period reflection
•
• •
Transformation At Present Residential mix with commercial having 4-5 storey with flat cgi or rcc roofs Brick wall with combination of cement and mud mortar Change in window opening in size and shape
Building Typology Traditional characterstic of Rana style building • • •
white plaster on external surface of the building Slope roofs with CGI sheet roofing Cornices & column (decorative) ,floral pattern on building façade
Transformation at present • • •
Cement plaster on external surface of the building Flat roof with CGI as well as RCC material Use of the glass shutter window
Mass And Void Relation • Limited the width of openings for privacy • Dominated by massive wall • Gives the building high solid to void ratio • Large openings for light purpose • Dominated by openings than wall • Gives the building high void to solid ratio • More openings structurally weakens the structure
Consequences
Consequences Base height ratio-1:7 Tall pencil blocks
Addition of concrete structure Over old building foundation
Base height ratio-1:6 Tall pencil blocks
Building with changing elevation (2’-3’ cantilever projection) On 2nd floor onwards
Consequences
7’-0”
12’-0”
Illegal vertical extensions
Good cooperation, communication in inner courtyard
SWOT Analysis
Narrow road
ď Ź ď Ź
No transition space Added cantilever plinth
High tension line under node
Conclusion No
reflection of historical building appurtenance.
Highly
reflection of modernization.
Many
alternate use of the open space like dabali.
More
priority to the vehicles than pedestrian on the street.
Trend
of commercialization developed in each building
rather than residential.
