THESIS:
T EC H N O LO GY DI SSEMI N ATI O N PARK , UTTARKASHI
‘A centre for Building Technology Dissemination in a disaster prone area in the hills, Uttarkashi.’ OBJECTIVE: The objective is to design a technology centre which demonstrates & showcases disaster resistant construction techniques of the hills along with research and learning opportunities. SITE: Located in the commercial core of Uttarkashi district. Site Area: 46,000 sq. m (4.6 ha) F.A.R: 0.25 Ground coverage: 25%
Technology Park

introduction India has been prone to natural disasters from ages and continues to experience damage due to them. Uttarkashi district in north-west Uttarakhand, has seen some major disasters since it was formed in 1960. It has experienced earthquakes, floods and landslides which has caused destruction and loss to lives.
Floods hit Uttarkashi massively in 2012-13
1. Do you know any guidelines related to disaster resistant construction?
2. Are new buildings following any disaster resistant features?
3. Involvement in construction of house
Need of the Project: DMMC(Disaster Mitigation and Management Center) conducted a survey and found that 56% of the buildings in Uttarkashi, Chamoli, Tehri and Srinagar are not disaster resilient. Most of the structures are old and are found to be more technologically sound in terms of their performance during disasters. Hence, there is a need to study the old structures as they have withstood all calamities and adapt those practices in new construction with modern interventions.

The practical application of knowledge in a particular area. In this case, its Building Technology
The act or process of dispersing or spreading something. In this case, its Disaster Resistant construction
A piece of ground in or near a city or town kept for ornament and recreation. In this case, its a Technology Park
why Uttarkashi?
Uttarkashi town is in the valley region surrounded by mountains on each side. It is also a holy town due to Gangotri (one of the four abodes in Uttarkhand) being nearby. Tourism is the main source of income here.
Site Uttarkashi Town Bhagirathi river
Timeline of Disasters occured in the past in Uttarkashi
1. Recognition by NDMA as most affected area: NDMA (National Disaste Management Authority) has chosen Utarkashi to be the first earthquake resistant district under ERMDP(Earthquake resilient model District Program).
Site location : Barethi, Uttarkashi, Uttarakhand, near NH-34 Highway towards Gangotri Site area : 4.6 ha Climate : Cold and cloudy Soil type : Deep, sandy and loamy Vulnerability : Earthquake zone-IV, High flood zone Annual Rainfall : 1975 mm (6.48 ft) Altitude : 1158 m (3,799 ft)
2. Cultural Significance: Koti Banal construction style (disaster resilient) has originated from a small village named Koti Banal in Uttarkashi.

design objectives Vernacular architecture of Uttarkhand has lost its identity due to new concrete buildings. There is a need to preserve traditional architecture of Uttarakhand. An institute that demonstrates different construction techniques and showcases the same in its design. Building should be Disaster resistant in the best way possible.
1. Site Level
Site has gradual level difference Average slope 1: 22
Buildings placed on the same axis of the slope of the site
SLOPE ANALYSIS Slope with 1:12 to 1: 25 slope is where buildings can be placed
05 Technology Park
Site experiences annual rainfall of 2100 mm, due to cloudbursts and landslides. Therefore proper management of storm water is necessary so as to avoid landslide situation on site.
2. Building level
Learning from the past: Koti banal
Memorial: In memory of people died in natural disasters in Uttarakhand.
For building to be earthquake resistant, square and rectangle building plan is considered the most stable shape. Keeping that in mind, all the buildings are designed symmetrical and rectangular/square. Block design
Plan & Section of a typical Koti banal house
Square plans with upper floor extended out to work as a shade to the ground floor. 1st floor with extended slab
Separating Services
No flat roof
Mock drill ground: For disaster mock drills for public visiting the center.
Simple rectangular plan
Bulky structure
Adding green spaces
Ring beams should be present on levels such as Sill level, Lintel level, Slab level, roof tie beam level. This type construction defines the elevation of the buildings.
Centre of gravity of the building should be as low as possible. Even if the vernacular buildings went up to 5 floors , their C.G remains lower as they have lighter material Bio swale detail running on pathway on site on above floors.

Identifying issues in Hauz Rani: CONGESTION The colony has developed organically, which has overpopulated the area. Houses are stacked adjacent to each other, footpath along the front road is too crowded all the time due to the pottery sellers. Section showing front road and streets
INADEQUATE VENTILATION AND LIGHT The streets are narrow, and the upper stories have projections almost meeting the building opposite to it which leaves no room for air to move downwards. There is no light in most of the streets due to the same reason. Narrow streets FF Plan
GF Plan
IMPROPER LIVING CONDITIONS Quality of Life: Impact of issues on human body can be analysed by our 5 senses. Even if there is a big community living there, they still have problems living there dealing with no proper drainage system and garbage disposal.
One of the rooms has kitchen slabs but share single toilet among 15 people
LACK OF POTTERY PRACTICE Hauz rani is known for it’s pottery production, but now, less people practice pottery due to the ban on furnace used for pottery. Few families who are still practicing it, are importing pots from outside and few use the furnace secretly.
STRUCTURES ARE OLD AND WEAK
LACK OF COMMUNITY SPACES
The buildings are old and poorly constructed, hence There is only one playground in the colony where kids they have greater chance of damage. Some of them play, which is small in size. There is no provision for are damaged even now, which causes life risk to the community functions or public gatherings. occupants.

The park lies on the entrance to the basti
An empty plot is being used as a meeting place

design Interventions Congestion can be dealt by having more open spaces in between. For that, some buildings need to be demolished and renewed which would not be fair for other occupants. Hence, Demolishing the colony except for the mosque as it is heritage to the people living there. Major character of the basti is the sense of community living. People interact a lot due to this closeness (congestion) in the basti, which defines their social behavior and trust towards each other. Hence, social sustainability needs to be maintained while redeveloping the basti. Pottery, being a heritage art of the basti, is lost and needs to be revived. People should be able to learn and experience pottery. Existing Scenario: Total no of plots: 176

6 Points to an Architecture of resistance KENNETH FRAMPTON [ 1. Culture and Civilization ]

Has Jaipur failed to come up as architecture legacy of new
GENERATION?
HOLISTIC
Learning in Schools
Modern building is now so universally conditioned by optimized technology thai the possibility of creating significant urban form has become extremely limited. The restrictions jointly imposed by automotive distribution and the volatile play of land speculation serve to limit the scope of urban design to such a degree that any intervention tends to be reduced either to the manipulaiion of elements predetermined by the imperatives of prodoCtion, or to a kind of superficial masking which modern development requires for the facilitation of marketing and the maintenance of social control. Today the practice of architecture seems to be increasingly polarized between, on the one hand. a so-called “high-tech” approach predicated exclusively upon production and, on the other, the provision of a “compensatory facade” to cover up the harsh realities of this universal system,’ Twenty years ago the dialectical interplay between civilization and culture still afforded the possibility of maintaining some general control over the shape and significance of the urban fabric. The last two decades, however, have radically transformed the metropolitan centers of the develope‹i wortd. What were still essentially 19th-century city fabrics in the early 1960s have since become progressively overlaid by the two symbiotic instruments of Megalopolitan development—the freestanding high-rise and the serpentine freeway. The former has finally come into its own as the prime device for realizing the increased land value brought into being by the latter. The predicament posed by Ricoeur—namely. “ how to become modern and to return to sources” ‘ — now seems to be circumvented by the apocalypi ic thrust of modernization, while the ground in which the mytho-ethical nucleus of a society might take root has become eroded by the capacity of development. Ever since the beginning of the Enlightenment, civilizafion has been primarily concerned with instrumental reason, while culture has addressed itself to the specifics of expression — to the realization of the leing and the evolution of its core psychological reality. Today civilization tends to be increasingly embroiled in a never-ending chain of “means and ends” wherein, according to Hannah Arendt, ”The ‘in order to’ has become the content of the ‘for the sake of:’ utility established as meaning generates meaninglessness.”’
[ 2. The Rise and Fall of the Avant-Garde ] The emergence of the avant-garde is inseparable from the modernization of both society and architecture. Over the past century-and-a—half avant-garde culture has assumed different roles, at times facilitating the process of modernization and thereby acting, in part, as a progressive, liberative form. At times being virulently opposed to the positivism of bourgeois culture. By and large, avant-garde architecti3re has played a positive role with regard to the progressive trajectory of the Enlightenment. Exemplary of this is the role played by Neoclassicism: from the mid—18th century onwards ii serves as both a symbol of and an instrument for the propagation of universal civilization. The midl9ih century, however, saw the historical avant-garde assume an adversary stance towards both industrial process and Neoclassical form. This is the first concerted reaction on the part of “tradition” to the process of modernization as the Gothic Revival and the Artsand-Crofts movements take up a categorically negative attitude towards both utilitarian- ism and the division of tabor, Despite this critique, modernization continues unabated, and throughout the last half of the 19th century bourgeois art distances itself progressively from the harsh realities of colonialism and paleotechnological exploitation by the cathartic hermeticism of Wagner’s music-drama. The progressive avant-garde emerges in full force, however, soon after the turn of the century with the advent of Futurism. This unequivocal critique of the ‹incien régimr gives rise to the primary positive cultural format ions of the 1920s: to Purism, Neoplasticism and Constructivism. These movements are the last occasion on which radical avant-gardism is able to identify itself wholeheartedly with the process of modernization. In the immediate aftermath of World War I—”the war to end all wars”—the triumphs of science, medicine and industry seemed to confirm the liberative promise of the modern p In the T930s, however, the prevailing backwardness and chronic insecurity of the newly urbanized masses, the upheavals caused by war, revolution and economic depression, followed by a sudden and crucial need for psycho-social stability in the face of global political and economic crises, at 1 induce a state of affairs in which the interests of both monopoly and state capitalism are, for the first time in modern history, divorced from the liberal drives of cultural modernization.

Has Jaipur failed to come up with architecture legacy for new generation? by Sonali Rawat
Jaipur has known to be eminent for the imposing SONALI RAWAT
forts, intricately engraved temples bejeweled Havelies . Jaipur adorns few elements of Architectural Heritage to the nation. It is Pink city of Rajasthan, which admires the prehistoric residence built with special stone and further adorned by pink colour. It has its own identity and Zest to maintain and save that legacy and heritage ,the society plays a vital role. Magnificent monuments such as Jaigarh Fort, Amer Fort, City Palace, Nahargarh Fort, Gaitore, Hawa Mahal, Jantar Mantar, Jal Mahal, Rambagh Palace and Statue Circle etc. are spectacular sights which attract hordes of tourists every year. Jaipur has failed to deliver and pass the legacy to new generation because of the change in perspective of the people of jaipur. To this there is substantial transformation in old and new both in terms of economy and ideas. There is less attention towards the altered context. Another major concern is the takeover by single skill consultancies. They have replaced architects, designers etc. At the same time, massive changes in the domain of Architectural practice. It's more of building business.

Article by Sonali Rawat Despite this defensive intel leciual stance, the arts have nonetheless continued to gravitate, if not towitrds entertainment. then certainly towards commodity and— in the case of that which Charles Jencks ha5 since classified as Post—Modern Architecture’— towards pure technique or pure scenography. In the latter case, the so—called postmodern architects are merely feeding the media-society with gratuitoUs, quietistic images rather than proffering, as they claim, a creative raypel a I’ordre after the supposedly proven bankruptcy of the liberative modern project. In this regard, as Andreits Huyssens has written, “The American postmodernist avant—garde, therefore, is not only the end game of avant-gardism. It also represents the fragmentation and decline of critical adversary culture.” Nevertheless, it is true that modernization can no longer be simplistically identified as liberative in se, tn part because of the domination of mass culture by the media-industry (above all television which, as Jerry Mander reminds us, expanded its persuasive power a thousandfold between 1945. So too, avant-gardism can never be sustained as a liberative movement in part because its initial utopian has been overrun by the internal rationality of instrumental reason.

This article shows Frampton emphasizing on sustainability in today’s world, he says it can only be achieved if one is out of date or behind others. He starts his article with reference to some other article and he is subtle in criticizing the article but very clear about his thoughts. He describes modern buildings and cultures as moving towards the stage of civilization that is both universally conditioned and optimized by technology. Frampton believes that urban form has become limited by universal building practices and methods which are driven to form by the symbols of modern culture. His answer to this dilemma is Critical Regionalism which he describes as “mediating the impact of universal civilization with elements derived indirectly from a particular place. Kenneth Frampton enters the populated scene of regionalism like figure of authority with a seal of approval. However, Towards a Critical Regionalism, the essay’s title, seems to be vouching for a different approach. As Frampton pursues an “architecture of resistance,” so does he pursue a resistance of preceding regionalisms. While rooted from the same word regionalism and critical regionalism are not one and the same. However, critical regionalism is part of the larger discourse of regionalism. According to Frampton, critical regionalism should adopt modern architecture critically for its universal progressive qualities but at the same time value responses particular to context. Critical regionalism is different from regionalism which tries to achieve a one-to-one correspondence with vernacular architecture in a conscious way. 244 Article Review 09
Many of the obituaries did what Megan Garber of The Atlantic complained such essays often do - ‘denude, by design.’ By ignoring critical facts, idealising Correa and overlooking the banalities of our milieu, they created a false impression that architecture is highly valued in India, its importance as public art is recognised, that bright professionals are nurtured, and the future is secure.
As an ungrateful nation basked in the great architect's glory, it overlooked the fact that the builders who came to dominate the Indian urbanscape had ignored Correa in the last years of his life. Hardly any worthy commissions in India came his way in the last decade and a half. "I'm glad I stopped [practicing]," he told The Guardian in 2013, adding that "architecture has become too mundane" to interest him. These bitter words were not a case of sour grapes but a sad reflection on the state of architecture in the city. Architects concerned about the current state of affairs do not help by focusing only on Correa's successes, idealizing him, and even constructing a hagiography. Correa was a master of surfaces and spaces, but when he strayed away from his convictions, he produced uninspiring buildings. He also knew how to change course and shared his educative experience with others. His failures were as instructive as his successes. Due to change in perspective, people are less sensitive towards their surroundings. They lack in spatial knowledge. Lack of staff with current experience and skills in complex with Passage of time , technology and cultural advancements the life style has evolved. The society comprises diversity of people and their statics. The older construction techniques used in Jaipur were time taking and evolve skilled labor, in new generation, loss of time is unacceptable. Further Jaipur has a style and can’t be compared with the new styles for the architecture sake. 495 Architecture Article 19
