Public movement pattern for convention centres: Communication and functionality can be improved by implementing efficient circulation patterns in a convention centre. People visiting or working in a convention centre can be divided into 5 broad user categories: • Public flow • Delegate flow • VIP flow • Staff flow

Delegates flow: Delegates form the most important group of users for a convention centre. The parking shall lead them to the main entrance foyer which further directs them to their destination. An unobstructed delegate movement is very important. Public flow: Dignified personalities are invited depending on the nature of conference. It can also have relatives and public guests invited by the organisation. The public guests also have access to the exhibition areas and hence these areas shall a separate access to manage the public flow during peak hours efficiently. VIP flow: They shall either directly lead to the dais of the main hall or shall enter through the VIP entrance which is connected to a VIP lounge. Staff flow: The staff can be divided into two categories namely the technical staff who are responsible for the efficient working of the convention centre while the others are the administrative staff who are exposed to the people coming to the centre. The paths of the technical and administrative staff diverse at the staff entrance.

THE AUDITORIUM The three-dimensional volume of an auditorium is conditioned by the need for all members of the audience to be able to see the whole of the platform or stage; and to hear the actor, singer, musician or speaker. Seating density, floor rake and seating layout are partly determined by this, partly to give the audience an appropriate level of comfort and essential to ensure a means of escape in an emergency, such as a fire, within the time required by safety considerations and by legislation.

AUDITORIUM DESIGN: • Audience requirements: Every member of the audience should be able to see and hear clearly whatever is happening on every part of the stage or platform. The greater the encirclement of the audience of platform or stage, more people can be accommodated within the aural and visual limitations up to 180° encirclement. With a full encirclement, the distance from platform or stage is restricted to six rows. • Number of seats in a row: With traditional seating the maximum number is 22 if there are gangways at both ends of the row, and 11 for gangway at one end. Rows with more than 22 seats are permitted if the audience is not thereby imperilled. • Row to row spacing: THESIS 2018-19

NOIDA HABITAT CENTER

SAKSHI SRIVASTAVA


Page 22 Spacing is controlled by the clearway between the leading edge of the seat and the rear of the back of the seat in front. For traditional seating the minimum clearway for people to pass along the row is 300 mm and this dimension increases with the number of seats in a row. For continental seating the clearway is not less than 400 mm and not more than 500 mm.

• Gangways: As gangways are essential escape routes, their widths are determined by the number of seats served. The minimum is 1100 mm. They can be ramped up to 10%. If the seating rake is steeper, gangways must have steps extending the full width and these must have consistent treads and risers in each run. SEATING DENSITY: Seating is usually laid out in straight or curved rows focused towards the platform or stage. Further forms are the angled row, straight row with curved change of direction and straight rows within emphasised blocks of seats.

EXHIBITION HALL An Exhibition is an organized presentation and display of a selection of items. In practice, exhibitions usually occur within museums, galleries and exhibition halls, and World's Fairs. Exhibitions can include many things such as art in both major museums and smaller galleries, interpretive exhibitions, natural history museums and history museums, and also varieties such as more commercially focused exhibitions and trade fairs.

GENERAL PLANNING The relationships between functions are common to all museums and art galleries. It shows collection item movements in the operation of collection services, but note that not every operation necessarily requires a separate space, and some services may be provided by outside agencies. As far as possible, collection movement and public circulation should be kept separate.

Space Standards a. Aisles: • Must be a minimum width of 3 meters. • Must equal total width of existing exits. • Must have 2 exits. • Must have no dead ends. b. Fire exits / Clearways: • Designated fire exits and clear ways cannot be encroached upon under any circumstance. Storage of materials or equipment in these areas is not permitted. It is the responsibility of the event organizer to ensure that stand holders comply with this requirement.

Elevators: • Location: Passenger lifts should be within a reasonable walking distance from the furthest part of the floor areas served (say, 70 m maximum) and, where they are the only or main lifts near an entrance. The location of goods and service lifts will depend on their function, but they should not open into passenger lift lobbies or public areas. • Planning a passenger lift: Cul-de-sac or recessed lobbies, are essential to get the maximum performance from lift groups. Clearly, having called for lift service the waiting passengers should not have to walk further than necessary to the responding lift car, and should not be obstructed by passers-by.

PARKING: Surface parking: Parking stalls should be built to accommodate the larger cars frequently used, although not necessarily the very largest. Parking spaces may be parallel, perpendicular, or angled (30, 45, or 60 degree) to the driving lane, or aisle. rea per ECS for surface car parking as per DDA is 23 m2.

Type

Description

Layout

Perpendicular • Effective in low turn- over rate or long term parking areas, • Most efficient and economical since it accommodates the most vehicles per linear me- ter. Angled - 60 degree

Angled - 45 degree

Advantage/disadvantage Advantages :• Works well with either one- or two-way aisles • Handles the most vehicles per square meter of pavement Disadvantages: • Requires widest area • Two-way traffic can create visibility problems

• This parking area con- figuration is ideal for a fast turnover rate or predominantly short term use. • This is often offset by difficulties of inefficient circulation patterns and way aisles.

Advantages: • Easy manoeuvring in and out of parking spaces • Good visibility • Lends itself to either one-or two-way aisles

The 45 degree angled parking configuration displays similar benefits and limitations as the 60 degree.

Advantages: • Reduced width requirements for layout. • Easy manoeuvring in and out of parking spaces. • Good visibility to the rear

Disadvantages: • Requires more pavement per vehicle than perpendicular configuration

Disadvantages: • Doesn't work well with two-way aisles • Requires more pavement per vehicle than perpendicular parking configuration.

INDIA HABITAT CENTRE The INDIA HABITAT CENTRE (IHC) was conceived as forum for handling multi-disciplinary issues involved in the development of human settlements. The project weaves urban design into a synergetic inter-relationship between institutions working in diverse habitat-re-lated fields to optimize their total effectiveness. It mixes work, commercial and social spaces to result in an integrated urban physical form, with common facilities for information dissemination.

Building Program IHC is programmed as a moderately dense complex with institutional and office work spaces, conference and library facilities, including a diverse range of facilities for the members. • 40,000 sq. of office accommodation • Conference rooms with a total capacity of 1000 in various configurations holding 30 to 450 people • 60 guest rooms, 5 suites, 5 service apartments • Conference rooms, cafeteria, restaurants and private dining rooms can handle around 1500 persons at a time • 700 sq. Of exhibition space • 420 capacity auditorium, 250 capacity amphitheatre • Parking for 933 cars and 2000 two-wheelers • 25% of the total area goes into landscaped courts

Architectural Vision and Implementation The genesis of the design, according to Stein, is rooted in the fact that he is a "horizontal architect with a profound dislike for automobiles and the need for climate modification, the application of these with the co-operation of the client led to a conscious decision to under build". Thus, the complex is realised as an oasis of quiet and greenery in the midst of the chaos of the city. Figure 27 SPACE FRAME AT IHC

RESPONSE TO SITE The neighbourhood is marked by free flowing traffic and not much public activity. The buildings here do not interact with each other or the street and this results in very little pedestrian movement and is essentially vehicular in nature. IHC, therefore, is an inward looking complex, whose public activity is removed from the surroundings.

Figure 30 GROUND FLOOR PLAN, IHC

The complex is divided into two main blocks – • The North Block along the main roads is made of seven storeyed office spaces. Lower floors remain public. • The South Block along the Lodhi Housing Colony holds functions like auditorium, theatres, library, member facilities and guest rooms. The height decreases progressively from the North to the South Block in response to the housing. The built is also set further back from the plot line on this edge.

SPATIAL ORGANIZATION The habitat centre is organized as a series of four to seven storey blocks around linked shaded courtyards. The built forms are grouped around climate tempered courts, shad-ed by overhead sunscreens and are enlivened by vertical gardens. Spaces are segregated on the basis of their level of public-ness. All areas which are expected to experience large and regular inflow of public have been placed close to the entrances. Offices are accessed from the courtyards. Courts and landscaped areas connect the public with the semi-public areas. However, there is limited engagement between the office workers and the activity in the courtyard due to horizontal windows where vertical would have suited better.

SUSTAINABILITY FEATURES • The interesting blue sunshade provided between two buildings in court helps maintain a comfortable environment and has a cooling effect. • The trees help maintain a green environment. • Fountains make the environment cooler & give an effect of lightness. • The building is planned in such a way that maximum part of the floor enjoys sunlight. • Sunlight is also allowed in the basement through interesting glass and metal structures in the courtyards.

SERVICES Figure 33 BRIDGE CONNECTIVITY

Figure 32 CONNECTIVITY

The entire building is air-conditioned, the basements are mechanically ventilated, sprinkler systems are installed in all usable areas and the complex has its own water purification plant. Fire escape staircases and lobbies are pressurized to prevent the spread of fire along vertical shafts. All office spaces have the flexibility of providing their own wet areas, apart from those provided in the central cores, and a floor grid provides adjustable connections for power and telephones that can be integrated with the partitioning. Computerized building management systems have been designed for the efficient operation of all systems, including watering of window boxes and the detection of faults. The level of detail that has been applied to the services is indeed remarkable.

INFRENCES 

As the original scheme is modelled on this building, many parallels can be drawn between the programs, and the study directly informs the proposal.

The project is very successful in terms of architectural expression, and as a place for indulging in cultural and leisure activities.

Validation of the proposed area program, as similar functions have been provided for here and are known to work.

Effective zoning for handling crowds.

Vehicular circulation is restricted to the periphery, making the site pedestrian friendly.

Landscaping ties the scheme together and is critical for creating the ambience and micro-climate that facilitates outdoor activity.

Courtyards also act as important binding elements and tools for placemaking.

The nature of public space created is inward looking, with volumes containing the inside from the outside.

Hampered pedestrian activity on the road outside due to similar - inward looking - buildings along the road.

The premises is active at night because of the many events it hosts. This activity is restricted to within the site and the roads outside remain deserted. Materials and proportions used for cladding and paving - brick, tiles and stone create a interesting facade and lend it a more humanizing scale.

Inferences: By bringing together a number of institutes from various habitat related professions in one complex, the complex problems of meeting facilities, co-ordination between different professionals and the problems like car parking, food services etc. have been smartly solved. (a.) External: • Approach: Persons approach either by public vehicle park their vehicles in the parking tot (Meena Bagh) opposite to the Vigyan Bhavan, thus they are exposed to moving vehicular traffic while crossing the road. • Entrance gate: It was observed that separate gates "Vs' vehicular traffic and pedestrian movement. • Parking: Parking lots have been provided inside Vigyan Bhavan. How-ever, haphazard vehicular parking on pathways obstructs right of way and safe movement of everyone including the physically challenged. • Vehicular movement is restricted only to the periphery of the site with only pedestrian movement allowed inside the blocks creating a very clean environment. Parking has been kept in the basement allowing rest of the site to be landscaped. • Steep ramps: There is a ramp provided on the western and the southern entrance, but is very steep (1:8) for pedestrian use. Also, it has no sup-porting handrail/ guard rail. • Architectural character: It marks a transition in the architecture of Joseph Allen Stein. Facade treatment on the exterior presents a very stable and strong visual effect by use of special bricks.

(b.) Internal: • The main entrance foyer on the southern side does not serve the maximum during peak hours. Hence mezzanine floors have been created on either sides which help in crowd management more efficiently. • Location of main lift bank for vertical circulation is far away from the main entrance on the southern side. • The use of R.C.C. frame structure has helped in creating flexible spaces in the interior. • The main circulation is via a doubly loaded corridor. There seems to be absence of clarity in planning as one moves along them. • The main hall has been treated as a central mass with other halls and offices placed around it. • The location of the dining hall in the atrium is not suitable.

PROGRAME ANALYSIS Client - Noida authority Users Users would be varied in nature given the kind of spaces proposed Employees in the offices on site, employees from surrounding offices, public attracted by the commercial character of the corridor, convention facility users, students from the neighbouring institutes etc., art & culture enthusiasts, tourists, and local residents.

Figure 54 DISTIBUTION OF FACALITIES

Additional Areas Proposed With the idea of creating a public space active both during the day and night, it seems viable to accommodate flexible/temporary kiosks on an elaborate public plaza. • To increase social interaction, attract students, engage the possible users (artists, enthusiastic learners, general public etc.) and given the proximity to NIFT, studios and workshop areas can be included. • A recreational zone including outdoor gaming activities can also help make the area more active and cater to the office users. • Food Trucks are growing in popularity.

EDGE ANALYSIS • The road granting access to the site through the south-east is SHIVALIK MARG which has heavy traffic flow due to metro station nearby and also ISBT on the next roundabout • To the north-east has a service road which has least traffic flow. • This road connecting and hence sees heavy, fast moving traffic, especially during the office hours by people commuting to work from the residential areas.

Inferences • Due to the already busy nature of the edge, the entrance to the site from this direction can be restricted. • The footpath along the site has scope for more pedestrian traffic, although it currently sees little. • The face of the site along this edge is the most public and hence extremely important.

Figure 65 SURROUNDINDS

Figure 66 SURROUNDINGS

• The road granting access to the site through the south-west is the golf road. The development it leads to is followed by residential areas. • The road branches out from the SHIVALIK MARG creating an intersection at one corner of the site. • The blue metro line run parallel to this road • The traffic on this road is fast moving as well.

FAÇADE TREATMENT The facade of building is designed in such a way to minimize the amount of heat gain While not compromising on daylight and views reflecting glass will most significantly reduce penetration of radiation from reflecting side to non-reflecting side. Jails or lattice walls can also be used to prevent glare and heat gain while ensuring adequate day lighting and views.

EFFICIENT USE OF DAY LIGHT As most of the program is made up of office space, there is a great opportunity to include efficient use of day-light. This can begin with using an optimum grid size. Working spaces in the office can be located alongside the openings, thus increasing the dependence on natural lighting. The layout of the office hence becomes key for daylight savings. Technology is available to help with better implementation of the saving plans. At a given point of time sensors can detect if the amount of illumination in a space is sufficient for working comfortably and can moderate the artificial lighting.

MATERIALS Compared to traditional bricks fly ash bricks are more eco-friendly due to the following reasons: • Manufacturing method saves energy, reduces mercury pollution • Costs 20% less than old-style clay brick manufacturing • Low embodied energy, High recycled content, low CO2 emission • Lighter than clay bricks • High strength, practically no breakage during transport • Uniform size of bricks reduces mortar required for joints and plaster by 50% • Lower water penetration, considerably reducing seepage of water through bricks • Use of locally available materials and recycled materials in the building reduces the embodied energy of the structure. As the site has been used as a dumping yard in the past, there is a lot of rock available which can be put to use for building — especially as landscape features and as other landscaping elements in pavements and curbs.

INTER-CONNECTING BRIDGE The built masses are interconnected at various levels by bridges. These bridges span up to 50m and hence require a strong structuctural system. Similar type of bridges are observed in Linked Hybrid a multi-use building in Beijing by Steven Hall Architects. The same structural system can hence be adopted.

S.W.O.T Analysis Strengths Site is located on flat land. This allows the building to be in rhythm with the surrounding. Easily accessible from metro, MMTS as well as bus stop, thus promoting public transport. Presence of important buildings in the precinct allows the project to function as a part of larger network.

Opportunities The location of the site is its most striking feature and can be utilised in the architectural expression as it is located on a corner plot. Giving full accessed view from outside The slope of the site is favourable for the creation of green spaces next to the road, where rain water run off can be collected. Site has the potential to direct the kind of development that will come up in the future. Corner plot allows for better connection with the movement systems around the site - better scope for creating a pedestrian edge.

Weaknesses As the land around is still underdeveloped, it is difficult to respond to the possible future developments.

Threats If the future development on adjoining plots does not go about as planned, the project may end being an island disconnected from the surroundings. For the scheme to be a success, pedestrian paths and green net-works of the future projects should mingle with it. For better or worse, much of the project's impact on surroundings depends on the lies in store for the neighbouring plots.

Analysis and conclusions: Building orientation • Orient the buildings with longer axes in the east-west direction. • The building with glazed curtain wall facing northwest shows CROSS SECTION a substantial reduction in load compared to southwest orientation

Figure 84

Figure 83

The west and north orientations are also better than the southwest direction. Location of sun w.r.t building orientationMaximum solar radiation during winters which is preferable as composite climate receives severe winters. • East and West receive maximum solar radiation during summer. West is a crucial orientation because high intensity of solar radiation is received during summers, when the internal gains are also at its peak. • Thus, attention needs to be paid while designing west facade and spaces behind west façade. • Landscaping is an important element in altering the micro-climate of a place. • Proper landscaping reduced direct sun from striking and heating up building surfaces. • Planting deciduous trees on the southern side of a building is beneficial in a composite climate as they cut off direct sun during summer, and as these trees shed leaves

In winter, they allow the sun to heat the building in winter which is suitable in composite climate. • The use of dense trees and shrub plantings on the west and northwest sides of a building will block the summer setting sun. • Natural cooling without air-conditioning can be enhanced by locating trees to channel south-easterly summer breezes.

Figure 85

Building form: The general design objectives are • Compactness: The building form controls the air flow pattern around the building directly affecting its airing. The greater the depth, higher is the need for artificial lighting. Transmission gain from the building envelope as well as solar gain from windows are least in round geometry in comparison to other building geometries which is most energy efficient in composite climate. • Use sheltering and buffering: In composite climate, the cover should be designed so that it remains shaded for the greater part of the day; the external walls should be so planned that they shade each other.

Shaded envelopes: • Shading of roof through design like pergolas or plantation helps in reducing the happening direct solar energy on the roof surface. This in turn helps to reduce the air temperature of the roof and transfer gains in the space below. • Shading of windows: Outside shading is the most effective ways of shading, as it cuts off direct sunlight during summer and allows winter sunlight to enter inside the space. • For instance, on north alignment minimum or no shading is required. On South orientation external shades should be designed after learning the sun path. • Shading devices on south orientation could be lasting in nature, as most part of the day, sun remains in south location. It is preferable to design moveable external shading devices on East and West facades, so that the shades could be removed after sun faces opposite orientation.
