Course Synopsis

To make students aware of site surveying methodologies and existing buildings/structures methods. Site surveying will also include the site analysis of the gray structures of the building with respect to orientation of sun and surroundings including the wind direction.This is also important in terms of building relation towards sites, also understanding the basic functions working together to form a livable environment according to modern day living/necessities. These functions mainly include electrical and public health (water supply and sewerage) and HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning System)

Course Learning Outcomes

The Students will learn how the external façade of the building is important for the interiors. And how they can minimize the openings in a buildings under the site analysis. They will come to know about the basic documentation of a building which will help them to design the interiors accordingly. All these studies will help students to apply the basic knowledge in their practical field. This will also focus on developing the student‘s understanding of HVAC design role in extended form i‐e in Commercial and Public buildings. As the advancement made in these fields is phenomenal so to understand new ideas and technology becomes a necessity to come up with good and comprehensive solutions.
