HALL OF NATIONS & HALL OFINDUSTRIES, NEW DELHI,1970

A limited competition was held in 1970 for the design of permanent exhibition spaces for the International Trade Fair 2 years later, & Raj Rewal‟s proposal was selected. The main pavilion of the hall of nations has a clear span of 78 m and a height vary from 3 m to 21m , thereby providing a vast capacity for items to be exhibited from books to bulldozers. The hall of industries is a combination of 4 smaller pavilions by ramps enclosing a central area for open air exhibits, utilities, toilets, and other services are located under the ramps. Although each of the halls was initially conceived as a full pyramid the truncated form was adopted in order to avoid unnecessary constructions.

Hall of Nations and Halls of Industries, Pragati Maidan, New Delhi 1971 – 72DESIGNED BY ARCHITECT RAJ REWAL

Designed as space frame in reinforced concrete; the first of its kind in India, and perhaps in the world; the 'Hall of Nations' provides an uninterrupted exhibition area of approximately

6,700 sqm in a 82m x 82m x 27m high truncated pyramid supported on eight points.

Located on Mathura Road, next to Purana Qila, Pragati maidan(149 acres of extensive ground), is rated as the finest exhibition complex in Asia.Besides the 15 giant exhibition halls, there is 10,000 square metres of open area for trade related exhibitions.

A special 9 member joint was evolved for precast construction but the builder

preferred in-situ construction. The joint was modified to suit the adopted

technique. The 'Halls of Nations' is supported on pile foundations tied

together with post tensioned plinth beams

The 'Hall of Industries' rest on spread footings tied together with high tensile

steel bars. The entire complex was analysed, designed and built in a period of

fifteen months.

Each of the four 'Halls of Industries' is similar in design

and is 44m x 44 m x 16m high.

Free standing coffered mezzanine floors

cantilevering out of cylindrical shafts provide

additional exhibition area in each hall.

Octahedra measuring 5m from joint to joint wereemployed as the basic 3D unit of the space frame ,which rests on 8 points around the essentiallysquare planned and allows 11m wide openingsbetween the supports. An effective system of environmental controlinside the building was another outcome of the 3Dstructure , as solid triangular panels at regularintervals provided sun screens – a modernequivalent , according to some authors of thetraditional jali in Indian architecture .

The Permanent Exhibition Complex is designed to form the focus of 130 acres of Exhibition ground designed by Raj Rewal in New Delhi. The design was evolved to meet the constraints of time, availability of materials and labour, but above all, to reflect symbolically and technologically, India's intermediate technology in the 25th year of its independence. The depth of the structural system was utilized as a Sun breaker and conceived of in terms of the traditional 'jali', a geometrical pattern of perforation that serves to obstruct directs rays of the harsh Sun while permitting air circulation.The main pavilion of the Hall of Nations has a clear span of 78 metres and a height varying from three metres to 21 metres, thereby providing a vast capacity for items to be exhibited, from books to bulldozers.
