ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN – I

Course Code: AR-101 LP/T ST C

1 0 6 6 OBJECTIVES

Introduction to basic design and basic understanding of form, order and space in architecture.

Understanding design as a function.

Course Contents

Unit I

Orientation to the: Role of an Architect in the built environment.

Architecture Profession: Building process, role of other professional in building. A general survey of the

changes in habitat in history. Architects act. C.OA. I.I.A.. NASA.

Unit II

Space and Architecture

Understanding design as to create for a particular purpose and architectural design as to create space – exercise in

terms of simple drawing and surroundings. Form created through lines (columns) and planes (volumes),

combination thereof.

Unit III

Understanding Form and Transformations

Understanding and composing pure (platonic) solids. Understanding simple and complex addition and subtractive

transformations in platonic solids retaining and destroying the original form. Assigning inter-related functions in

form so that together they have a ―fit‖.

Unit IV

Understanding design as a function and Scale in Architecture

Simple measurement exercises. Studying, analyzing and improving the design of simple objects

Unit V

Understanding Order in Architecture: Analyzing and selecting examples of architectural compositions in terms

of their inherent order.

Developing a predetermined order and its transformation in architectural compositions

APPROACH

Drawing and model making skills will be taught along the subject to improve the abilities to understand

space and form.

Conduct of Examination: Theory: There will be a theory examination in Architectural Design of 50 marks. The duration of the Design theory examination is 6 hours (Two shifts of three hours each). For the Design theory examination, the examiners are

required to prescribe any special stationery to be issued to the students for the examination of this subject besides

cartridge and butter paper.

Course Code: AR-151 Architectural Design –I (viva voce) The Viva-voce examination of 50 marks each (i.e. both external & internal) shall be related to the work done in the

Design Studio and the topics listed in the syllabus.

The External Viva-voce examination shall be conducted by two examiners: one external and one internal

Semester – I

BUILDING CONSTRUCTION AND MATERIALS – I

use in construction.

Course Contents Unit I

Materials Clay and Clay Products: Mud including stabilized earth, Burnt Brinks, Brick Tiles, Brick Ballast and Surkhi. Stone: Classification, Availability, Characteristics and Uses.

Lime: Availability, Preparation and Uses.

Cement: Manufacture and Properties.

Unit II Materials

Sand and Surkhi: Characteristics, Availability and Uses. Mortar: Mud, Lime, Cement.

Concrete: Lime, Cement.

D.P.C.: Asphalt, Bitumen, Synthetic

Unit III

Construction: Element of Building: Terminology, nomenclature of various parts of building from foundation to roof. Foundation: Need, Design criteria. Foundation in brickwork and concrete. Details of simple Spread Foundations for

load bearing walls of various thicknesses.

Unit IV

Brick Work: Brick Terminology, Simple Bonds in Brick work. Details at junctions and Quoins. Stone Work: Elementary Stone Masonry, Types of joints

Unit V D.P.C.: Introduction to Horizontal D.P.C.

APPROACH

The students would be familiarized with vernacular terminology as prevalent in this part of the country.

The emphasis will be constructed details as applicable to Indian conditions,

Site visits and market surveys will be an integral part of sessional work.

DISSERTATION


0 0 0 2

Objective:

To increase the students vocal and presentation skill in future.

Contents: The Dissertation is one of the most demanding yet potentially most stimulating components of an architectural course. Properly done, it can be a valuable contribution not only to the students own learning development but also

to the field of architecture as a whole.

Methodology: To students, it can be a source of independent research and learning, enriching their development as architects and

critics of the built environment; at the same time it can be an obstacle, a perceived impediment to design work.

To staff, it can be a chance to share their research interest with colleagues and students, so enriching exchange and

debate; it can also be time consuming and not clearly relevant to the formation of a professional.

This case study argues that a change in attitude towards the objectives of the dissertation, coupled with careful

consideration of its curriculum, can enhance the role that undergraduate academic writing plays in a School of

Architecture, extending its benefits to the development of research and design agendas.

Intent

To prepare a student to independently handle and present all aspects of an architectural design : from its

evolution to final solution in totality;

To understand the importance of the evolutionary stages of a design process and various techniques

required for a successful presentation of an architectural design;

To develop in students the ability to handle specific aspects of design relevant to the topic.

Thesis Program:

Each student is required to conduct an intensive study and present a design thesis on any

of the design topics. The students should submit synopsis for at least three different, designs or research oriented

topics, to the respective Institution, of which one will be approved to carry on the research and design. Each student

shall be attached with a faculty member who will guide his work. The arrangement for the assessment of the

progress through the semester for all the students and a ‗Program schedule‘ will be declared separately for each

session by the respective Institution. The work of student should result into a ‗Design Proposal‘ based on the

complete and detailed study of site including its selection, topography, climate, spatial requirements of the project,

special functional and physical needs of the project, and standard data, construction and services and all other factors

that the involved with a particular thesis topic. At least two of the following items, for complete design or an

approved part thereof, should be covered in full detail and included in the design and presentation, along with the

final design proposal –

1. Structural calculations and design.

The design proposal should be prepared and presented with the help of charts, drawings, perspective views, models

and other audio -visual aids. A thesis report must also be prepared and submitted in one soft copy (on CD) and three

hard copies (one to be returned to the student) type written and bound together with prints and photographs of all the

drawing & models. The thesis report should explain the objectives, scope, case studies, literate study-research &

data, design concept/ approach, design proposals, construction programming & financing etc. The original drawings,

models and one copy of thesis report will be returned the students in due course of time as decided by the respective

Institution.

Thesis Jury: The final assessment of the thesis will be made through a panel of external jury, in accordance with

the ‗Thesis Evaluation Regulations‘ to be issued separately.
