Moscow’s New Supertall Skyscraper Approved for Construction

• Written by Eric Baldwin
• Published on August 29, 2018

Moscow officials have approved a new supertall building that will become the city's tallest skyscraper . Rising 404 meters (1,325 feet) in height as part of the Moscow City commercial district, the tower is designed by Sergey Skuratov Architects. The unnamed structure will be a multifunctional residential complex with 109 floors. The new skyscraper will break Moscow's current tall building record set by Federation Tower at 373-meter-tall (1,226 feet) tall. Construction is scheduled to begin next year.

The new skyscraper joins a host of other superlative buildings in Moscow City, including five of the ten tallest buildings in Europe, all supertall structures.The district's Federation Tower currently holds the title of Europe's tallest completed skyscraper. Soon, it will be surpassed by St. Petersburg's Lakhta Center , which will rise 462 meters when complete in 2019. When complete, Skuratov's skyscraper in Moscow will become Europe's second tallest building.

Designed with two main volumes, the new supertall design includes a 12 story base structure with offices, a shopping center and a range of commercial facilities. Above, residences will rise to the 104th floor. Capped with a helipad, the project includes an observation at 399 meters (1,309 feet) above ground. The project's facade will feature a gradient of white glass between windows that disappears by the 80th floor. As Skuratov explains, "The plan of the building is an isosceles (trapezoid) 30 meters wide, truncated on one side, facing the Moskva River. The sloping edge on the west side of the tower follows the direction of one of the nearby streets. The other edge is vertical and points toward the center of Moscow."

Moscow's supertall is set to open in 2024. Read more about Sergey Skuratov and his work through our recent interview .

1. SYNOPSIS 1.1 INTRODUCTION: As indicated by the Maharashtra Apartment Ownership Act, 1970-An Apartment implies a piece of the property expected for an autonomous use, including at least one rooms or encased spaces situated on at least one stories or part or parts thereof in a structure, and with an immediate exit to an open road, street or parkway to a typical region prompting such road, street or interstate. The proprietor of a condo staying holds the title for that home as it were (What's more, conceivably a subordinate region, for example, a vehicle space). The rest of the regions; For example, the passage anteroom, lifts and collective nurseries/open space are possessed and overseen by a proprietors' partnership. A high rise can be a low or mid-ascent improvement and may contain just a bunch of abodes. An apartment complex can likewise be a significant, skyscraper improvement with countless condos. The ABS evaluation characterizes low-ascent high rises as up to four stories. Apartment complexes more than four stories are considered as mid or elevated structure. There are various designs and floor plates for high rises relying upon size, tallness and capacity. A condo or unit is an independent lodging unit that possesses just piece of the structure, by and large on a solitary story. There are various kinds of condos arranged by size, highlights and utility. 1.Penthouse Apartments: A penthouse condo is an extravagance loft that is set on the top most floor of the structure. These lofts have delightful perspectives on the horizon and the scene. Overhangs and rooftop top decks are the uncommon highlights of a Penthouse Apartments. 2. Studio Apartments: These condos are the extravagant of the craftsmen. Studio lofts are moderately littler condos that have Kitchen, Bathroom and Bedroom incorporated well inside one single room. They are likewise well known as Bachelor Apartment or Efficiency Apartment. 3. Condominium: Apartments claimed by an individual yet where various individuals meet up to live in a similar house is a Condominium or a Condo. The proprietor rents out

the loft to a little arrangement of individuals who thus pay an occasional total of cash for their stay in such condos. 4. High Rise Apartments: Found to a great extent in the metropolitan urban communities because of folded nature of homes in focal pieces of the city inferable from enormous populace, skyscraper lofts are tall structures offering for the most part 2BHK, 3BHK and 4BHK condos. They are found generally in the outside zones of metropolitan urban areas with condition of workmanship structures. 5. Low Rise Apartments: In contrast with High Rise Flats, low ascent lofts are moderately littler structures however offer more security and are increasingly debatable as far as lease and rent. They have lifts and are increasingly appropriate for focal pieces of the city which are known for extreme land rates. 6. Convertible Apartment: A studio loft or a typical one which has plan that can be upgraded to make progressively number of rooms is a convertible Apartment. The dividers used to make are adaptable naturally and offer extraordinary utility and security in these condos. 7. Loft: An enormous room in the structure that has been changed to a private space from business one is a Loft. Since they for the most part have enormous spaces, lofts can be changed over into studio or 2 BHK or even 3 BHK condos. 8. Garden Apartments: Apartments with access to gardens are called Garden Apartments. They can be found in the terrace, front side or at times inside the condo relying upon the structure of the home. For the most part in the ground floor, these lofts for the most part have greater windows. 9. Duplex or Triplex Apartments: Apartments with two stories and a typical passageway with a private flight of stairs to arrive at the principal floor is known as Duplex Apartment while a loft with 3 stores is known as a Triplex. These are extravagance condos that offer included space for additional rooms as their structure is advanced for it. 10. Service Apartments: these lofts are mainstream for the extravagance and security they offer. Normally reserved for a little timeframe, these lofts are the extravagant of

explorers searching for a short remain in the city or revelers searching for an individual space. The charges for such lofts vary by the explanation and season. 11. The term “luxury”: “luxury” refers to as a state of great comfort or elegance, especially when involving great expenses. Luxury apartment is a high end apartment that includes everything you could ever want or need. They are large and spacious and situated in premium locations. They have top of the line appliances and housewares, onsite parking and countless amenities. Such amenities include on site movie theatres, high end fitness centres, large pools, spas and many others. Identifying an apartment as luxury is a ply to attract high paying tenants and more so raise the monthly rent. Luxury apartments have an unmatched degree of privacy in terms of type of facilities installed in the housing the project should comprise lesser units per floor and accommodate more green spaces. Luxury apartments can basically be defined with four A’s: Area, Amenities, Aesthetics, and Affordability.

1.2 FACTORS DEFINING LUXURY APARTMENTS: 1 Technologically skillful : Each land designer and homebuyer accepts that an extravagance home ought to be model in the sort of innovation it employments. Accordingly, computerization is the watchword. Contingent on the sticker price of the property, the degree of innovative headway would change. Vitality effective homes, savvy lighting and sound homes, atmosphere control homes, homes with keen latrines these have become a thing of the present. 2. Space: Space is the fundamental in an extravagance home regardless of whether the property is in a portion of the prime areas like Mumbai. 3. Location: Extravagance is likewise characterized by the area the property is arranged in. Huge customary homes in little urban areas or in the peripheries of enormous urban communities don't qualify as extravagance. Along these lines, the area must be pined for, expensive and optimistic in each sense. The area of the undertaking as well as the area of the unit can likewise realize contrasts in estimating. VIPUL DEVICHAND OSWAL 1621

4. Neighbourhood: An extravagance neighbourhood welcomes the consideration of the choicest few. In this way, extravagance engineers focus on this specialty masses and are mindful about keeping up the brand-esteem. These are properties where inhabitants demand security and thusly single unit per floor ideas got well known after some time. 5. Trend-setter: Be it the manner in which you dress the home, the scene, the kitchen or pleasantries, for example, pools, wellness focuses and diversion zones — each of these ought to be an innovator in itself however not exactly either. Subsequently, a pool in an extravagance venture and that in a mid-extended task isn't exactly the equivalent. Subsequently, extravagance ventures add to the appeal which customary task, probably, attempt to gorilla. So also, homes with gazebos, toilet, or an outside recreation space are an irregularity and consequently, the cost. 6. Entertainment at home: A diversion zone that is furnished with a home theatre and an individual gaming zone is the new expansion to an extravagance home. The most recent in-the-advertise devices are an unquestionable requirement have for the youthful and old the same. The fundamental reason behind this element is to make a space where a home purchaser never feels the need to leave the extravagances of the home. 7. Fitness first: The vast majority of the extravagance properties come outfitted with an individual rec centre. The affluent would want to perspire at the solace of their home instead of in different exercise centres where they would need to share machines. Extravagance homes have a different room that includes all the necessary machines and loads and have a TV, remote speakers and different contraptions set up that gives the proprietor's rec centre access style. 8. Up high: A personal elevator that opens to the foyer of an opulent home is one of the most popular features of a luxury property. Elevators are now a must have in all kind of luxury properties, an apartment, a penthouse or a mansion. VIPUL DEVICHAND OSWAL 1621

9. Spread-out personal space: Rooms in an extravagance property have an extraordinary worth. A main room, as we probably are aware it, has an enormous space to suit a jumbo bed with a lot of seating region. It can likewise incorporate all the hello their tech highlights with worked in robotization frameworks. An augmentation to a main room is a stroll in storage room that lets you show all your costly originator garments, shoes and adornments. These storage rooms are well-outfitted with plentiful lighting, roof to-floor mirrors, and top tier wooden closets.

1.3 HISTORY: High rises have existed for quite a long time. In the extraordinary urban communities of the Roman Empire, as a result of urban blockage, the individual house, or domus, had given route in early majestic occasions to the common dwelling, or insula, aside from the living arrangements of the well off. Four stories were normal, and six-, seven-, or eightstory structures were once in a while developed. Another sort of loft existed in Europe in the medieval times, comprising of an incredible house or chateau, some portion of which was partitioned into littler arrangements of rooms so as to house the workers and different retainers of a notable individual. As opposed to these "lofts," which were basically close to home suites inside extraordinary houses, the condo as today is realized initially showed up in Paris and other huge European urban communities in the eighteenth century, when tall squares of pads for working class inhabitants started showing up. In the regular Parisian high rise, the size of the lofts (and the monetary methods for the occupants) diminished with each progressive story in a four-or five-story building. By the mid-nineteenth century, huge quantities of reasonable flats were under development to house expanding quantities of mechanical workers in urban areas and towns across Europe and in the United States. These structures were frequently extraordinarily pitiful, ineffectively planned, unsanitary, and squeezed. The run of the mill New York City loft, or apartment, a sort originally built during the 1830s, comprised of condos prevalently known as railroad pads on the grounds that the restricted rooms were organized start to finish straight like freight cars. In reality, scarcely any minimal VIPUL DEVICHAND OSWAL 1621

effort high rises raised in Europe or America before 1918 was intended for either solace or style. In numerous European urban communities, be that as it may, especially in Paris and Vienna, the second 50% of the nineteenth century saw incredible advancement in the structure of condos for the upper-working class and the rich. The advanced huge high rise rose in the mid twentieth century with the fuse of lifts, focal warming, and different comforts that could be partaken in like manner by a structure's occupants. Lofts for the wealthy started to offer different courtesies, for example, relaxation offices, conveyance and clothing administrations, and common lounge areas and nurseries. The multi-story condo kept on developing in significance as swarming and rising area esteems in urban areas made one-family homes less and less practicable in parts of numerous urban communities. Much government-financed, or open, lodging has appeared as high rises, especially for the urban old and common laborers or those living in destitution. Loft square towers additionally were raised in enormous numbers in the Soviet Union and different nations where lodging development was the obligation of the state. Since World War II the interest for condo lodging has kept on developing because of proceeded with urbanization. The mid-or skyscraper high rise has become an installation of the horizons of the vast majority of the world's urban communities, and the a few story "stroll up" loft likewise stays well known in to some degree less developed urban zones. Nonetheless, different responsibility for on a solitary site has gotten significantly more typical in the twentieth century. Such possession can appear as cooperatives or apartment suites.

1.4 NEED OF THE PROJECT: The land business is perhaps the greatest business in India. The need of this industry is unavoidable as the development populace should experience its future in urban areas. The land showcase has seen resurgence with the extravagance advertise indicating huge development in last quarter. Notwithstanding, the customary loft portions keep on being famous decision with the center and salaried class. While extravagance condos increase current standards on solace, accommodation and quality.

The quickly developing Indian land market and India's monetary advancement has made land the most engaging speculation choice. Indian land has experienced a makeover in the ongoing years. With the restoring economy having implanted a recharged feeling of certainty among HNI (high system singular) home purchasers, there has been a critical flood sought after for the extravagance home resource class in the metropolitan urban communities of India. As per a worldwide riches report, since 2000, riches in India has become 9.2% per annum, quicker than the worldwide normal of 6% and this is an amazingly positive sign for the land area. This will prompt improved buying force and developing desires to purchase tip top homes.

1.5 AIM : To explore and break down the term extravagance and the limitations and difficulties created by the interesting setting of the land chose and structure extravagance dependent on the private complex close by of the site.

1.6 OBJECTIVE : 1 Study Objectives: 1.To examination the current examples and exercises of the Apartments. 2.To comprehend the prerequisites, utilitarian network of spaces and the nature of an Apartment building. 3.To examination the necessities of very good quality society and arranging as indicated by it. Understanding the space and giving a positive effect on the structure. 2 Design Objectives: 1.The essential target is cautious arranging and planning the lodging, recreational regions to make walker streets and lessen the utilization of transportation frameworks inside the site. 2.To comprehend the term extravagance and its understanding with engineering and planning to the requirements of the very good quality society.

1.7 SCOPE : Extravagance homes have consistently been a class resource in the metropolitan urban areas of India. High total assets people consistently favor having their own space for individual just as recreational use. Be that as it may, the expanding populace and industrialisation have made it hard for people to have their own plot of land and build a private extravagance home upon it. The option of remaining in a condo sometimes falls short for everybody because of constrained space, absence of protection, restricted stopping zone and definitely no space for recreational exercises. Driven by the rising interest of extravagance loft people are purchasing unsatisfactory properties which have been labeled as sumptuous however don't really meet the acknowledged standards of extravagance properties. So regardless of whether individuals are having the buying power, it isn't being used to its maximum capacity in view of the absence of accessibility of extravagance lofts. One more explanation is that such condos are an exceptionally appealing speculation for speculators as it can receive very great rewards and returns in the long haul.

THE LAKE TRIO – HIGH END APARTMENTS & VILLAS 60

Whole structure is made of reinforced concrete. The building is a 32-storied reinforced concrete structure with 6.3m cantilevered open terraces. The central core houses lifts and other services and also provides main structural elements for resisting lateral loads. The central core was constructed ahead of the main structure by slip method of construction. This technique was used for the first time in India for a Multi-storied building.

2. LITERATURE STUDY 2.1 Structural Evolution of High-Rise Buildings : •

First Generation (1780-1850) 1. The exterior walls of these buildings consisted of stone or sometimes cast iron was added for decorative purposes. 2. The columns were constructed of cast iron, often unprotected; steel and wrought iron were used for the beams, and the floors were made of wood.

Second Generation (1850- 1940) 1. The second generation of tall buildings, which includes the Metropolitan Life Building (1909), the Woolworth Building (1913), and the Empire State Building (1931), are frame structures, in which the skeleton of welded- or riveted-steel columns and beams, often encased in concrete, runs through the entire building. 2. This type of construction makes for an extremely strong structure, but not such attractive floor space. The interiors are full of heavy, load-bearing columns and walls.

Third Generation (1940- Present) 1. Buildings constructed from after World War II until today make up the most recent generation of high-rises buildings. 2. Within this generation, there are those of steel-framed construction (core wall), and steel-framed reinforced concrete construction. 3. Hybrid systems also evolved during this time. These systems make use more than one type of structural system in a building.

2.2 Classification of Tall Building Structural System 1. It can be classified based on the structural material used such as concrete or steel. 2. Structural systems of tall buildings can also be divided into two broads. Categories: a) Interior Structures b) Exterior Structures 3. The classification is based on the distribution of the components lateral load-resisting system over the building. 4. A system is categorized as an interior structure when the major part of the lateral load resisting system is located within the interior of the building. 5. Likewise, if the major part of the lateral load resisting system is located at the building perimeter, a system is categorized as an exterior structure.

Shear Frames • Rigid Frame Structure A rigid frame in structural engineering is the load-resisting skeleton constructed with straight or curved members interconnected by mostly rigid connections which resist movements induced at the joints of members. Its members can take a bending moment, shear, and axial loads. • It is consisting of columns and girders joined by moment resistant connections. • It can build up to 20 to 25 floors. Examples 1. Lake Shore Drive Apartments, Chicago. 2. The Ingalls Building, Ohio.

Examples of rigid frame structures [source- google images]

• Shear Wall StructureConcrete or masonry continuous vertical walls may serve both architecturally partitions and structurally to carry gravity and lateral loading. Very high in-plane stiffness and strength make them ideally suited for bracing tall building. • It is usually built as the core of the building. • It can build up to 35 floors Example 1. Seagram Building, Manhattan, New York 2. Cook County Administration Building, Chicago

Examples of shear wall structures [source- google images]

Interacting Systems Braced Frame Structure A braced frame is a structural system commonly used in structures subject to lateral loads such as wind and seismic pressure. The members in a braced frame are generally made of structural steel, which can work effectively both in tension and compression. 1. Vertical truss: resist lateral loads. 2. K. V, X members eliminating bending under lateral loading. 3. Column girder and diagonal Bracing are connected by pin joints. 4. Fabrication is more economical than other moment-resisting connection in a rigid framed structure.

Braced Frame Structure with Shear Core 1. Shear walls: To resist the lateral load caused by wind & earthquake. Relatively thin: height/width. 2. The assembly of shear walls is known as coupled shear wall. 3. Belt trusses distribute the tensile and compressive force to the large no. of exterior trusses. Example Empire State Building, New York

Empire state building, new york [source- google images]

Outrigger Trusses The core may be centrally located with outriggers extending on both sides or in some cases it may be located on one side of the building with outriggers extending to the building columns on the other side. 1. The outriggers are generally in the form of trusses (one or two stories deep) in steel VIPUL DEVICHAND OSWAL 1621

structures, or walls in concrete structures, that effectively act as stiff headers inducing a tension-compression couple in the outer columns. 2. Belt trusses are often provided to distribute these tensile and compressive forces to a large number of exterior frame columns. 3. It can build up to 150 floors.

Outrigger Trusses [source- google images]

Tubular Systems The tube system concept is based on the idea that a building can be designed to resist lateral loads by designing it as a hollow cantilever perpendicular to the ground. 1. In the simplest incarnation of the tube, the perimeter of the exterior consists of closely spaced columns that are tied together with deep spandrel beams through moment connections. 2. This of columns and beam forms a rigid frame that amounts to a dense and strong structural wall along the exterior of the building. 3. The different tubular systems are 1.Braced tube 2.Bundled tube 3.Tube in tube

Framed Tube

1. The lateral resistant of the framed-tube structures is provided by very stiff momentresistant frames that form a 'tube' around the perimeter of the building 2. The basic inefficiency of the frame system for reinforced concrete buildings of more than 15 stories resulted in member proportions of prohibitive size and structural material cost premium, and thus such system was economically not viable. 3. The frames consist of 6-12 ft (2-4m) centre to centre closely spaced columns, joined by deep spandrel girders. 4. The outer tube carries 100% of the lateral loads and 75% to 90% of the gravity loads. The rest of the gravity loading is shared between the tube and interior column or walls. 5. When lateral loading acts, the perimeter frame aligned in the direction of loading acts like the-webs of the massive tube of the cantilever, and those normal to the direction of the loading act as the-flanges. 6. The tube form was developed originally for the building of a rectangular plan, and probably it's most efficient use in that shape. Example Aon Center, Chicago (USA)

Braced Tube The trussed tube system represents a classic solution for a tube uniquely suited to the qualities and character of structural steel. 1. It interconnects all exterior columns to form a rigid box, which can resist lateral shears by axial tension in its members rather than through flexure. 2. Introducing a minimum number of diagonals on each façade and making the diagonal intersect at the same point at the corner column. 3. The system is tubular in that the fascia diagonals not only form a truss in the plane but also interact with the trusses on the perpendicular faces to affect the tubular behavior. This creates the x form between corner columns on each façade. 4. Relatively broad column spacing can result in large clear spaces for windows, a particular characteristic of steel buildings. 5. The facade diagonalization serves to equalize the gravity loads of the exterior columns that give a significant impact on the exterior architecture.

John hancock center, chicago [source- google images] VIPUL DEVICHAND OSWAL 1621

Bundled Tube The concept allows for wider column spacing in the tubular walls than would be possible with only the exterior frame tube form. 1. The spacing which makes it possible to place interior frame lines without seriously compromising interior space planning. 2. The ability to modulate the cells vertically can create a powerful vocabulary for a variety of dynamic shapes, therefore, offers great latitude in the architectural planning of at all building.

Tube in Tube Structure This variation of the framed tube consists of an outer frame tube the ' an internal elevator and service core. Hull' together with 1. The Hull and core act jointly in resisting both gravity and lateral loading. 2. The outer framed tube and the inner core interact horizontally as the shear and flexural VIPUL DEVICHAND OSWAL 1621

Tube in Tube Structure components of a wall-frame structure, with the benefit of increased lateral stiffness. 3. The structural tube usually adopts a highly dominant role because of its much greater structural depth.

Mega Frame Structure 1. Building rise above 60 stories 2. Utilizes mega columns comprise the chords of the oversized braced frames corners. 3. Linked by multi-story trusses at every 15-20 story intervals. 4. Often at mechanical floor levels. 5. Mechanical Floors can be used to construct a stiff horizontal subsystem. Examples 1. Hotel De las Artes, Madrid 2. Tuntex Sky tower, Taiwan

Example of mega frame structure [source- google images]

Space Truss Structure Space truss structures are modified braced tubes with diagonals connecting the exterior to interior 1. In a typical braced tube structure, all the diagonals, which connect the chord membersvertical corner columns in general, are located on the plane parallel to the facades. 2. However, in space trusses, some diagonals penetrate the interior of the building. Example Bank of China (I.M.PIE) Diagonal tower VIPUL DEVICHAND OSWAL 1621

Space Truss Structure –

Example of space truss structure [source- google images]

Structural Concerns – 1. The primary structural skeleton of a tall building can be visualized as an upward cantilever beam with its base fixed in the ground. The structure has to carry the vertical gravity loads and the lateral wind and earthquake loads. 2. Gravity loads are caused by dead and live loads. Lateral loads tend to snap the building or topple it. The building must, therefore, have adequate shear and bending resistance and must not lose its vertical load-carrying capability.

Fighting gravity 1. The weight of the building is supported by a group of vertical columns. 2. Each floor is supported by horizontal steel girders running between vertical columns. 3. A curtain wall made of steel and concrete attaches to the outside

Wind resistance 1. Buildings taller than 10 storeys would generally require additional steel for the lateral system. 2. The most basic method for controlling horizontal sway is to simply tighten up the structure. At the point where the horizontal girders attach to the vertical column, the construction crew bolt: and welds them on the top and bottom. as well as the side. This makes the entire steel superstructure move more as one unit, like a pole, as opposed to a flexible skeleton. 3. For taller skyscrapers, tighter connections don't do the trick to keep these buildings from swaying heavily. engineers have to construct especially strong cores through the centre of the building. 4. The effects of wind can also be minimized by aerodynamic shaping of the building. Wind tunnel testing considers appropriate loading for overall lateral system design and cladding design and predicts motion perception and pedestrian level effects. 5. Use of damping systems as the building becomes taller and the building's sway due to lateral forces becomes critical, there is a greater demand on the girders and columns that make up the rigid-frame system to carry lateral forces.

Structural Load Structural loads are forces, deformations, or accelerations applied to a structure or its components.

Types of loads Dead load Loads that are relatively constant over time. It is also known as permanent or static loads.

Live Load 1. Dynamic or impose or moving loads, temporary of short duration. 2. Considerations: impact, momentum, vibration, slosh dynamics of the fluid.

Environmental Loads These are loading that act as a result of weather, topography and other natural phenomena. These are: Dead load Snow load Live load Water load Earth pressure Water pressure.

Seismic Load 1. Buildings undergo dynamic motion during the earthquake. 2. The building is subjected to inertia forces that act in the opposite direction to the acceleration of earthquake excitations. 3. These inertia forces called seismically loads are usually dealt with by assuming forces external to the building.

Wind Loads – 1. Thermal loads (temperature changes leading to thermal expansion) 2. The lateral pressure of soil, groundwater or bulk materials. 3. Wind load has the ability to bring a building to sway. 4. Wind velocity increases with the increase in height.

Wind Loads Wind Turbulence 1. When any moving air mass meets an obstruction, such as building, it responds like any fluids by moving to each side, then rejoining the major airflow. 2. The Ventury effect is one type of turbulent wind action. Turbulence develops as the moving air mass is funneled through the narrow space between two tall buildings. The corresponding wind velocity in this space exceeds the wind velocity of the major airflow.

Core 1. The core is one of the most important structural and functional elements of the highrise building 2. The core of a building is the area reserved for elevators’ stairs, mechanical equipment and the vertical shafts that are necessary for ducts, pipes and wires 3. Its wall is also the most common location for the vertical wind bracing. 4, The placement of the service core stems from four generic types which are: Central core Split-core End core Atrium core

2.3 Servicses: 1.Fire Fighting Systems 1. The fire appears to be by far the most common extreme situation that will cause damage in structures, it must be a primary consideration in the design process. 2.‘The characteristic feature of a fire such as temperature and duration can be estimated from a knowledge of the important parameters involved, particularly the quality and nature of combustible material present, the possibility and extent of ventilation and the geometric and thermal properties of the fire compartment involved. 3. Once thetemperatures atthe varioussurfaces have been determined,from tegastemperaturecure, it ispossible toestimate heat flow throughtheinsulation andstructuralmembers. 4. The parameters that govern the approach are stochastic in nature, and the results of any calculation can be given only in probabilistic terms. The aim should be to achieve a homogeneous design in which the risks due to the different extreme situations are comparable.

4. SITE ANALYSIS : Locality of Mumbai, India : There are only a few places where the composition of land and water demands the creation of a city and the opening of Thane creek, the largest natural harbour on India’s west coast is the home of Mumbai (Bombay). Protected by a 247 square mile island extending into the Arabic sea, the bay is now almost entirely urbanised by present-day Mumbai and about a third of Greater Mumbai’s population lives on the southern ‘finger’ of

This is largely seen as a result of real estate speculation and greater interest in developing South Mumbai, where the chronic shortage of office space promised far higher returns.

SITE APPROCH : Proximity To CBD Bandra Kurla Complex (5 Mins Drive Via Bandra Worli Sea Link City Airport And Suburban Area (15 Mins Drive Via Bandra Worli Sea Link) New CBD Is Just Within 10 Kms Driving Distance Nariman Point (15 Minute Drive)

PROPOSED SITE : The site is locatded in worli, mumbai, india, includes two major land marks near site. A unique ecosystem, strong soil stability, and high temperature and humidity. The location provides a lush tendency towards sea facing view and rugged terrain.

SITE ANALYSIS : (source Google earth)

The site contains low ridge tops in west side. The geography of the site is typical of the remainder of mumbai south bombay and the mumbai. Vegetative cover tends to be scrubby/shrub plants covering the primary the site. The site location is situated in south mumbai worli which is island city of mumbai. This site land belongs to private owner. It is well known because of its proximity to the worli sea link. VIPUL DEVICHAND OSWAL 1621

The approximate site area is around 64,976.11 sq.m (16 acre) The site dynamic in terms of human activity keeping it active 24X7. The site is next to thane-belapur road gives connectivity and vehicular traffic around it.

Geology of Mumbai : Refers to the geology of the city of the island city of Mumbai. Back Bay and Bandra reclamation are the major reclamation areas of Mumbai in the Arabian sea.

Soil: The predominant soil cover in Mumbai city is sandy, whereas in the suburban district, the soil cover is alluvial and loamy.

PEOPLE: HOUSING DENSITY: Residential landuse for the city is shown, expressed as housing density. Housing density is divided into three categories: high, medium, low. Generally the data provided by each city had a code or an indicator such as "residential high density." Generally, no numeric VIPUL DEVICHAND OSWAL 1621

value determined the density, rather an indicator of housing zones or actual building type identified the housing type, and thus the density. In Mumbai, housing density was determined by how many floors where in a building. Three divisions were made to derive the high, medium, low density (ie. one or two floors = low density; three or four floors = medium density).

POPULATION DENSITY: Census data reveals that population density varies noticeably from area to area. Small area census data do a better job depicting how where the crowded neighborhoods are. In this map, the yellow areas of highest density range from 30,000 to 150,000 persons per square kilometer. In those areas, if the people were spread out evenly across the area, there would be just 4 to 9 meters between them. Very high density areas exceed 7,000 persons per square kilometer. High density areas exceed 5,200 persons per square kilometer. The last categories break at 3,330 persons per square kilometer, and 1,500 persons per square kilometer.
