CHECK LIST FOR CASE STUDY

NEED FOR STUDY RELATED TO TOPIC:-

LOCATION:

- Network of roads, transportation system, types of user with various approaches to

site, importance of site with respect to other buildings, future planning possibilities
related to master plan of city (expansion of roads, by laws and other effect on site)
- Historical importance of site , heritage, culture and social aspects around the site,
trends of architecture
- -topography of site with respect to road network, services like electrical, sewers
(main and sub sewers),garbage disposal, visual points of aesthetics like visual
comfort and visual disturbances , obstacles etc
- Topography w.r.t to wind and rainfall and soil erosion problems
- -visual and audible conditions of site in and around
- - zoning segregation of private, semiprivate, public , semi public and merging of zone
with visual and physical points in ci=considerations.
- -soil conditions for construction, vegetation growth building structures and other
parameters of construction technology with availability etc. possible analysis with
site and surroundings conditions.
- Network pattern of people and vehicles to site entrances, visual acceptance of site
entrance and other transitions zones from entrance to main building elevated.
- Animal traps, compound wall design, social issues, parking facilities.
- Volumetric analysis of building and sitr analysis with respect to surrounding buildings
and effect of various factors like A.C outlets , heat , glazed elevation, vibrations due
to construction site, low maintenance of municipal corp. etc

SITE AND ITS CONDITIONS

- Levels of lands, soil and permishable change and existing issues, landscape features
present and analysis of what can be proposed.
- Physical boundaries and limitations of buildings perimeter and possibilities.
 - Levels of lands created for various purposes, rainwater harvestings, channels and
protective measures taken for soil erosion, sate rocks or old trees existing in site.
- Materials used in site , paving , parking etc

DESIGN ASPECTS

- Evolution of design pattern of building keeping in view all mentioned above.

- Transition zones of entrances to buildings foyer or particular place entrance.
- Fire safety, physical disabled friendly design addressing etc.
- Formal and informal zones with segregation of types of user.
- User flow chart, hourly working structure, 3d graphics with charts etc
- Integration of design through cultural, social and visual aspects of site
- New construction methods or methodologies adopt for constructions, panning etc.
- Vertical and horizontal axis and network patterns with people with timely behaviour.
- Behaviour light, sound and character issues of building in micro climate and macro
climate conditions.
- Departments or zones and elevating the values of particular sector with respect to
- Physiology of people using the building and surrounding with respect to
- Type of work associated to various users in the building site.
- Demand of user comforts in various places at various time w.r.t time, place, climate,
season and other uses

*** - acceptance of design in site.

- Solid void ratios

- Composition analysis
- Services tables and need and supply description chart with graphs and solutions can
be and already provided.

STUDY ANALYSIS:

For framing design in comparative analysis.

QUESTIONNAIRE:

- All fundamental users of buildings and questions related to working, comforts, needs
etc and analysis through their words.
- Questionnaire to structural or architect, builder if available etc
- As a designer what are you looking at what made you choose the buildings etc.
