SITE ANALYSIS

Proposed Site for Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies is in Sarangpur,

Chandigarh.

CHANDIGARH

Chandigarh is a city in northern India that serves as the capital of the states of Punjab and

Haryana.

Chandigarh is located near the foothills of Shivalik range of the Himalayas in northwest.

It covers an area of approximately 114km.sq.

Its average elevation is about 321meters.

SARANGPUR

Sarangpur is on the western periphery of Chandigarh. It is proposed that Sarangpur will be

developed as new Chandigarh of concepts of urban planning and environmental design.

Site Location

Site is located in Sarangpur educational park near botanical garden.

Sarangpur is a village in Chandigarh Tehsil in Chandigarh State in India.

Sarangpur is 8kms away from sector 17 bus terminal Chandigarh.

Some of the other villages in Chandigarh Tehsil are Daria, Hollomajra, Kajheri,

Site Description

The site is located in the educational park

of Sarangpur Chandigarh.

The area of park is 103 acres with 10 plots

in it with plot sizes ranging between 6

acres to 8 acres. The central area of the plot

is dedicated for the commercial zone.

Site Characteristics

Site and its surroundings

.

Existing secondary school

in close proximity to site.

Height of G+2, having

open brick facade.

The senior secondary

school is the only structure

available in the vicinity.

Botanical garden in front of the site approached from the main Chandigarh kurali road.

Tube well in front of the site


Approach Road

The approach road 1 to the site

is the Chandigarh kurali

highway, it is two way road

60.94 m wide.

The road is busy 24 hours a day

and lot of noise is coming from

the approach road.

Inner approach road 30.48mts

wide along north east side of site.

Therefore possible entry to the

site can be through two longer lengths

of site, and the design approach can be

adopted taking this into consideration.

Chandigarh kurali highway

Inner Road

Approach road (Madhya Marg) view at distance of

3.5 km towards Chandigarh

Street view at distance of 2.4 km from

site towards kurali.


Shape of the Site:

Rectangle

Topography of the Site:

The site is plain there is no

undulating surfaces.

The site is depressed 1.75m

below the main approach road,

therefore there is need of soil

infilling on site.

Soil is loamy and fertile and has

lot of weeds and shrubs grown

over it, therefore the building structure should be such that it will not be

affected with the unwanted vegetation growth.

Soil has good percolation capacity.

Vegetation

Few tree grown on the site

Weeds and unwanted grass

grown on the site.

Existing Structure and Services

There is no existing structure on the site

1.75m

Vegetation grown on the site

Ventilation shaft is

also existing in-

between the site that

point will also have

to be catered during

designing.

Rain water drains

and sewer system

has been installed

along the roads

approaching the

site.


Climatic Conditions

The climate of Sarangpur experiences four seasons

Summer season (mid March to mid June).

Rainy season (late June to mid September).

Autumn season (mid September to mid November).

Winter season (mid November to mid March).

Wind direction

Winds flow from north west

to south east in winters and

reverse in summer

The winds can be placed in

windward direction to

achieve cool atmosphere in

the building .interior.

The built up design can be such that the cool atmosphere can be achieved during summers

and remain warm during winters, considering the wind conditions.

Rainfall -1030mm/avg

Temperature

Winter - Nov-Jan (0deg C 16deg C)

Summer - April-July (28deg C 43 deg C)

Latitude - 30.68o

Longitude - 76.73o

Sun Path

This shows that the harsh sun is on south west

and south east side of the site, therefore proper

solar passive techniques should be inculcated.

Seismic zones

The site lies in the seismic zone 4, therefore

it is prone to earthquake.

The building structure should be in

accordance with the Indian standards and

guide lines for hazards safety.


Conclusion

Climate : The site is loacated in the composite climatic zone , therefore , the climate

would be extreme in summer as well as winters. Therefore the solar passive

architectural techniques applicable to composite climate are needed to be followed.

Location : The Sarangpur area is yet to develop , and especially the area is to close

proximity to the site . Therefore the built up will going to put an impression on the

surroundings and would be the basis for the upcoming building around it .

Site orientation: The site is along

the North East and South West

direction, therefore as the

building is an institutional

building therefore preferred

orientation is aligning the building

along East- west axis.

The major openings in the

building should be placed on north

face where as southern face should

be protected from heat gain by

using shading devices or

vegetation.
