“The Greenest” CONTEMPORARY SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE

The terminal buildings are elegant modern structures defined by dramatic, twin winglike hovering roofs providing 300-meterlong, column free space. The straightforward planning and super-efficient organization of the program, security and circulation form the basis of an innovative design that incorporates vibrant sustainable gardens. Unlike any other airport in the world, lush green gardens are visible throughout the terminal creating a unique dialogue between engineering and nature, interior and exterior spaces and man’s relationship to earth and air travel.

The Chennai Airport project is an ambitious project that pushes the extents of design and technology to the next level.

Design of the Terminal is day-lit with a carefully crafted narrow floor-plate thus minimizing the reliance on artificial light.

Apart from high aesthetic appeal and covering of large span the Kalzip roof system also delivers a high climatic and energy performance.

“Airports and Terminals are by nature energy guzzlers but Chennai Airport has proved that architects commitment to sustainability can make the structure regardless of typology and size environment friendly.” - Ar. Gurpreet S Shah

The terminal building open-web, steel superstructure subtly rises to support twincurved roofs that define a light and open, 260 meter long column-free terminal. Skylights highlight the geometry of the trusses, further defining the structural framework to allow natural light to permeate the terminal with a constantly changing pattern of shade and shadow.

NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION: Master Planning, City side development and Designing of one of the Asia’s largest green Terminals at Chennai Airport having a total site area of 100 acres. The basic design has been conceived around a huge green internal spine with twin wing hovering roofs on the both sides providing 300‐meter‐long, column‐free space which completely shades the south facing elevation and protects the departing passengers. The new Chennai airport constitute Domestic Terminal (77,000 14. Sqmt), International Terminal (66,000 Sqmt), associated departure flyover & Multilevel Car Park accommodating 1200 cars constructed in Phase 1. A glass connector tube, yet another engineering marvel other than the V‐shaped columns, is approx.700mtr.long and is also being constructed to combine the two terminals and give the passengers a freeway for movement. The Terminal Buildings includes varied activity areas such as more than 20,000 sq mt of Office Area and more than 20,500 sq mt of Commercial Space in passenger areas comprising restaurant, cafeteria, duty free and other facilities. 15. TOTAL CAMPUS AREA (IN ACRES)

1152 Acres

16. TOTAL COVERED AREA (IN SQMT)

More than 2,00,000 m2 (Approx)

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS OF THE SPECIAL FEATURES: ‐ One of the largest Cantilevered Roof of 24M (in Asia‐Pacific) at City Side of Terminals made up of tubular space frame of approximately 48M span. ‐ 508 dia HOT ROLLED pipes of Fe‐355 grade which are pre‐bended in desired shape have been specially imported. ‐ Both the proposed Terminals are connected by Flyover of approximately 1.2 km long. 400mm thick steam cured hollow box beams are laid to create the WAFFLE thin FLYOVER by virtue of which Terminal façade are not compromised. ‐ 800 M long Glass Tube connects is proposed at First floor level connecting both the proposed terminal. This connector tube runs between the V columns. ‐ Super efficient organization of Security and circulation form the basis of INNOVATIVE Terminal planning. The building is evolved around two green courtyards referred as the central green spine, forming practically an H 17. shaped building. The H shaped building is clearly divided into two halves, one is into the landside and the other half into airside programmed operations and spaces connected with a central security checkpoint. ‐ Unlike any other airport in the world, lush vertical gardens are visible throughout the terminals creating a unique alliance between engineering & nature. Gardens comprise of stainless steel structure lattice providing support for hanging plantings with vibrantly colored lush vegetation. ‐ High level of sustainability in nearly every aspect of design, including restoration of the native landscape, passive energy conservation strategies, material selection, onsite storm water detention, and on site waste water treatment and dispersal systems would be achieved. Photovoltaic cells on atrium roof reduce heat gain and provide renewable power. ‐ The Airport Terminals consists of total of 10 immigration counters, 19 Emigration counters, 22 custom counters including 12 counters for Domestic and 10 counters for International Terminal, 104 Check‐In counters with 52 counters for Domestic and 52 counters in International Terminal.


ANY GREEN TECHNOLOGIES / FEATURES USED The principal aim of designing was to minimize the heat gain and maximize the day lighting throughout the terminal as much as possible.” High level of sustainability in nearly every aspect of design, including restoration of the native landscape, passive energy conservation strategies, material selection, onsite storm water detention, and on site waste water treatment and dispersal systems is being aimed at. Adherence to Active and passive strategies are followed strictly. 1. Bricks have been replaced with AAC blocks (Aerated Autoclaved Concrete Blocks), which ensures thermal insulation. Besides insulating capability, one of AAC's advantages in construction is its quick and easy installation. 2. Shade to external walls from strong sun by the 30m high trussed roof. Roof insulated by the use of Kalzip aluminum roofing system which is designed and installed to withstand the expansion and contraction forces resulting from an temp ranging from 5 to 45 degree Celsius. 3. The complete roofing system meets the required thermal (U) value of maximum 0.32 W/m2K. 4. Double skin glass with specification to provide less heat gain and maximum light penetration on air side as well as city side. 5. Waste water treated on site for irrigation and recycling as flushing water. 6. Storm water retained on site to recharge groundwater by replacing hard park by green pavers with high porosity. 7. Adoption of Solid waste treatment plant and recycling water saves water consumption by 40%. 8. Heavy foliage on west side. 9. Unlike any other airport in the world, lush vertical gardens are visible throughout the terminals creating a unique alliance between engineering & nature. It is basically a stainless steel structure lattice providing 18. support for hanging plantings with vibrantly colored lush vegetation including orchids. Soil irrigation and light will be fully integrated with the structure to minimize the maintenance. IN SITE DEVELOPMENT: 1. A Multi‐level car parking with Green roof is proposed in front of the new Domestic Terminal accommodating approximately 600 cars. 2. Parking area is totally devoid of hard surface which has 95% of water run off and no percolation. Use of Green pavers (High Impact Polypropylene) with over 90% porosity recharges the ground water. CONSERVATION OF WATER 1. Recycling of water by use of STP/ETP so that fresh water is only used for drinking/washing and recycled water is used in HVAC, gardening and flushing. This will save water by 50%. 2. Strom/rain water either stored in low line artificial lake or reused for landscaping or it can be used to recharge ground water by bore wells. 3. Use of appropriate faucets/taps/human censors, similarly cisterns with low water consumption. LIGHTING EFFICIENCY: 1. Use of CFL light fixtures. 2. Use of electronic ballasts. 3. Automatic lighting shutoff. 4. Occupancy sensors and other lighting controls. 5. Lamp efficacy for exterior lamps. Superior daylight achieved throughout the building will reduce dependence upon artificial lighting.

D ESIGN

CO MP E T I T I O N

A seamless integration of the built mass and the extended landscape presents a timeless architectural composition. A distinct design approach reflects the thoughtful compartmentalization of the terminal into various zones which creates a phenomenal in-depth visual connectivity to the commuters. The terminal design is based on super-efficient organization of passenger circulation, security and enhances the vibrancy of the spaces.

The strenuous task to design and assimilate more than 14,500 tubular members which formulate the iconic roof of the building was the major challenge. The curvilinear roof form, spanning 120 meters, with a maximum clear span of 39 meters and a 12 meters cantilever at airside creates a unique floating effect. Each primary truss is supported by steel columns with flaring arms which as per the resemblance has gained the name of Tree Columns.

“The organic form has its genesis from ‘An Avian’ and is conceived with a sliced dome at the centre and multiple wings elevating the roof profile towards the sky.” - Prof. Charanjit S Shah

“Transforming An Avian form from paper to reality was a tough task yet was accomplished within the given time frame. The External development has changed to landscape of the site from barren land to lush green.” - Ar. Abhishek Kumar Sinha

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS OF THE SPECIAL FEATURES: Seamless integration of the built mass and the extended landscape presents the timeless architectural composition. Distinct design approach reflects the thoughtful compartmentalization of the terminal into various zones which creates a phenomenal in‐depth visual connectivity to the commuters. Covering a floor plate of a square meter, the terminal design is based on super efficient organization of passenger circulation and security and enhances the vibrancy of the spaces. Given the enormous size of the project, the goal was to transform the conceived profile from paper to reality. The strenuous task to design and assimilate more than 14.500 tubular members which formulates the iconic roof of the building was the major challenge. The curvilinear roof form spanning 120mtr. With 39 meters maximum clear span and 12mtr. cantilever at airside creates a unique floating effect. Each truss is supported by steel columns with flaring arms which as per the resemblance has gained the name of Tree columns. Named as the Swami Vivekananda airport, the terminal currently, is in a position to accommodate 10 to 12 lakh domestic and international passengers. Segregating the arrival and departing spaces, the new bi‐level terminal with an area of 18,500 sq.m houses two hardstand holdrooms and gates. However, the proposed expansion plan shall facilitate an area of 25,000 sq.m and four gates catering to the future expanding needs by 2020. The terminal boasting state‐of‐the‐art technology has 16 check‐in counters, 3 escalators, 3 lift, 2 X‐ray luggage machines, 3 security check points and 3 conveyor belts for luggage. It also has a provision on 15 immigration counters for prospective international flights. The city side development includes elaborate plans for areas specifically dedicated to a surface car park for 350 cars, 150 taxis, 10 buses, 28 V.I.P, at a distance of 100m from the terminal. Inaugurated and open for public in November 2012, by Honorable President of India, the new terminal building is designed to accommodate 700 passengers, including 200 international fliers.

Total Site Area : 10 Hectares Passenger Capacity : 4 Million pax / year “The Terminal form has been derived as free flowing symbolizing a wave representing the proximity of sea and Beaches of Goa.” - Prof. Charanjit S Shah

...the Wave... The building form developed is simple & bold. Reincarnation of the oldest geometric form – Circle, resting on the ground with a half-arch emerging from one end of the semi-circle symbolizes the Wave. The envelope consists of long curved glass façade which gives the building a transparent modern look. The interior scheme is subtle and vibrant. The solid roof, steel portal frames, all in one displays the bold appearance of architecture and engineering design. The building services are planned in a very sophisticated and intelligent manner Various backlit double height feature walls strategically placed near the escalators and staircases create a visual interest and guide the passengers to their destination. This Terminal is designed to accommodate maximum built-up area for limited ground coverage by introducing more floor slabs in the same volume. This is economically most efficient terminal building in comparison with any other contemporary Terminal building.

“Incorporation of all modern features & technology in limited budget and yet not compromising the core functional & aesthetical requirements during planning stage was the main challenge we were able to overcome” - Ar. Rahul Dixit

The Terminal displays the influence of an engineering marvel and at the same time holds a strong identity featured with simplicity. Inspired by the body and wings of an airplane, the building’s bold sweeping form has been an outcome of the fusion of transparent and cloudy façade on NorthSouth and East-West respectively and wraps the entire terminal with one single metal skin. “The sweeping curves deliver a sense of elegant boldness and clarity. Much like the profile of the building the interior spaces are maintained as column free, and conceived as a single visual entity to make the circulation hassle-free.” - Prof. Charanjit S Shah Illustration of the designer’s fantasy, a focused design philosophy to increase the efficiency of resources inherited vision to reduce the overall impact of the built environment on human health and the surroundings was the main motto. The space augurs well in terms of day light due to the introduction of skylights and clear circular openings resulting into a multi-dimensional space. “The terminal creates a sense of excitement, anticipation and spirit of flight even from a distance.” - Ar.

The existing domestic terminal at Vadodara Airport is distinct from other airports due to its mix of regional architectural style complete with domes and roof and having an area of 6500 sq.mt. The terminal building has been conceptualized having an area of 17,500 sq. mt. with the ability to handle 700 passengers (500 domestic and 200 international) per hour. The most prominent structural feature for the New Integrated Terminal is the huge archway that warps the entire terminal and accentuates it to form a space which is immense and transparent when visualized. Skylights follow the geometry of the trusses further opening the structural framework to allow natural light to permeate the terminal. These space frame trusses will allow for column‐free public spaces on both the landside and airside terminal spaces. The regular fully triangulated structural scheme and repetition of the basic structural module terminate in maximum resourcefulness and to assist in limiting the overall depth of the structural envelope, girders are post tensioned and the beams and slabs that will frame into these girders will be designed using conventional reinforced concrete construction methods. This system has been adopted to preserve the maximum flexibility for possible future operational changes to the terminal. Sub‐surface car parking facility has been provided at North‐east corner of the site. The facility is designed to accommodate 250 car parking spaces and will allow full view of the terminal from the roadway system.

The terminal has 18 Check‐in Counters. ANY GREEN TECHNOLOGIES / FEATURES USED

The design tries to reflect local bamboo art and its extensive usage in the state of Tripura. This has been expressed on the terminal building façade, i.e., the flexible and organic nature of Bamboo has been expressed as an element of structure. The idea of local art exposed boldly on the façade provide a very unique look and feel to the Terminal building, at the same time using this idea in the interiors through sophisticated use of new materials which provide local character and depict local art.

Column of terminal building

Skylights have been used at various intervals, strategically provided so that ample daylight is available at all areas. Maintaining the fluidity of the building elevation, the plan has also been developed with a fluid intent incorporating landscape areas inside the building that provide relief space for the passengers. This free flowing form has been further accentuated at arrival & departure areas, in form of landscaped courts, inside the terminal building which can act as a relief to the areas. The terminal planning also allows maximum nontraffic revenue generation by having most interior walls utilized for retail opportunities and locating the services towards the back, rather than facing the public concourse area.

Sustainability as such has no bench marks. The more you respect mother earth and create designs that are organic in built form and knit with nature, the environment becomes more lively and human. The building should not be a constituent of brick and concrete alone but should progressively grow and blossom like a flower and become an eternal part of landscape and its natural surrounding. It needs to be treated like a living organism and should breathe & be inter woven with the environment.

THE WAY FORWARD

ne t zero

Beyond

My past 40 years of experience and passion for sustainable green architecture has progressed my thoughts. I feel like a proud father of every building which we have designed, like a father feels honored and proud when his son is settled with recognized profession of merit. Every building is a design challenge. Passive strategies towards respecting the site topography, orientation, wind directions and selection of appropriate materials and technology lead to sustainability. Maximizing daylight and minimizing heat gain in hot-dry and composite climate is one of the major concerns of planning. Conservation of water and energy by use of natural process of recycling, reuse and making the built environment off the grid is what perhaps is Net Zero. We need to look beyond net Zero. The rural & urban overlap demands for food and vegetation growth within the built environment. For a sustainable campus Integrated livable environment has been planned by our team where human habitat and agriculture for self-sufficiency co-exist. New technological advancements have been amalgamated to achieve a sustainable campus wherein human habitat and self-reliant eco-system of Flora & Fauna co-exist. This makes the IIT-Jodhpur campus a vision beyond net zero or net-positive.

My professional journey of more than two decades from practice to teaching and authoring of books has provided me with insight and visionary thought of the young budding Architects toward better, healthy and green environment by way of new innovative ideas and use of appropriate technology beyond imagination. Our recent mega infrastructure global winning design (competition) the Chennai Airport, which truly is the Greenest Airport Terminal and City Side Development which we are proud to have achieved through adaptation of most of the active and passive strategies of sustainability and green architecture. Our corporate buildings and campuses namely CRI Pumps, Suguna Poultry, REC, HPGCL, Oil India are truly demonstrating the green elements and adherence to ECBC code. The passion towards profession has led us to great heights, achievements and innovations. Kongu convention centre with a capacity of 4500 person is a landmark of South India as one of the largest and sustainable developments. Amudham Dairy Plant is another true example of affordable and sustainable landmark industrial complex with use of appropriate technology to achieve the highest aesthetics and conducive environment. I can proudly say that with my vast experience Creative Group has inculcated within their team members the zeal and passion to design beyond Net Zero. May we call the same as dream with the unimaginable thoughts looking to be fairy tales of today but reality of tomorrow. Let us march together towards green and look beyond Net Zero.
