1. SYNOPSIS

CHAPTER 01: Introduction

Background
The automotive car market is growing at a rate of only 2 percent per
annum automotive production is likely to remain at around+4% per year
in 2014 and 2015, with an increase in production in China, India, and
Mexico at the expense of Europe. Production is even expected to
exceed 100 million vehicles by 2017. The major component
manufacturers, which are essential for auto makers, have relocated to
follow production and register healthy levels of profitability

The world car production has increased from 44.66 mn in 1996 to an

estimated 48.3 mn cars in 1999. Japan, Canada and global

USA brought about the major increases, which contribute to 53% of the
world's car production.

The USA and Japan are the leaders with around 42% of the total world
market. However, since the over capacity of more than 30%. The trend
suggests that As vehicles and businesses adapt to these new standards,
sales for automotive exhaust systems and its components will increase,
driving 4% growth in the market in 2014, from around $32 billion in 2013.
This last two to three years, the international passenger car industry has
been witnessing an presents a global growth.

and is not expected to pick up in the near term. Growth has dropped
due to the increasing levels of saturation in the larger car markets of the
world. Worldwide the trend is towards ensuring that one's products are
superior in terms of quality.

Growth in global

industry volumes may grow by just 2% or around 10 mn vehicles per year.

The Automotive Industry in India is one of the largest automotive markets

in the world. The automobile industry is one of the key drivers that boosts

the economic growth of the country. Since the de-licensing of the sector

in 1991 and the subsequent opening up of 100 percent FDI through

automatic route, Indian automobile sector has come a long way. Today,

almost every global auto major has set up facilities in the country.

It had previously been one of the fastest growing globally, but is currently

experiencing flat or negative growth rates. India's passenger car and

commercial vehicle manufacturing industry is the sixth largest in the world,

with an annual production of more than 3.9 million units in 2011.

According to recent reports, India overtook Brazil and became the sixth

largest passenger vehicle producer in the world. The automobile industry

is one of India’s major sectors, accounting for 22% of the country’s

manufacturing.

The world standing for the Indian automobile sector, as per the

Confederation of the Indian industry is as follows:

 Largest three-wheeler market

 Second largest two-wheeler market

 Tenth largest passenger car market

 Fourth largest tractor market

RUCHA KHALIKAR,B-ARCH,MIT AURANGABAD Page 5

AUTOMOBILE RESEARCH AND TRAINING INSTITUTE

 Fifth largest commercial vehicle market

 Fifth largest bus and truck segment

Need of the project

 India is one of the largest automotive markets in the world. The automobile industry is one
of the key drivers that boosts the economic growth of the country

1.2AIM:

to promote technological growth in Automobile sector and create more

jobs for local people by increasing economic activity and investment.

1.3 OBJECTIVES:

 To make the unified architecture as the communal space acting as

a new building typology all together.

 To create a better and sensitive environment.

 To create connections between ecology and technology, built-up

and open spaces, present and future, to form a proper organized
space.

 To develop the co-ordination of several different activities and organizations.

1.4 SCOPE AND LIMITATIONS:

On day Aurangabad stands on no.02 position in auto cluster centre.

MIDC of Aurangabad is 5 star industrial zone and it had been declared as

special economic zone (SEZ).

RUCHA KHALIKAR,B-ARCH,MIT AURANGABAD Page 6

AUTOMOBILE RESEARCH AND TRAINING INSTITUTE

It has great potential to set-up an Automobile Research and Training

Institute in MIDC because companies like Bajaj, Skoda, Audi, Wolkswagen

are getting a strong market as vendors like Varroc, Endurance, etc are

readily available to give the required equipment.

3. ABOUT AURANGABAD :

3.1 INTRODUCTION :

The city is a tourism hub, surrounded by many

historical monuments, including the Ajanta Caves and Ellora Caves,
which are UNESCO World Heritage Sites, as well as Bibi Ka Maqbara and
Daulatabad Fort. The administrative headquarters of the Aurangabad
Division or Marathwada region, Aurangabad is titled "The City of Gates"
and the strong presence of these can be felt as one drives through the
city. Recently, Aurangabad was declared "Tourism Capital of
Maharashtra".

Main Tourist Attractions:

The Aurangabad city is known for the Bibi Ka Maqbara situated about 3
km (2 mi) from the city which is the burial place of Emperor Aurangzeb's
wife, Dilras Banu Begum also known as Rabia-ud-Daurani. It is an imitation
of the Taj Mahal at Agra and due to its similar design, it is popularly known
RUCHA KHALIKAR,B-ARCH,MIT AURANGABAD Page 8
AUTOMOBILE RESEARCH AND TRAINING INSTITUTE

as the "Taj of the Deccan".[26] The

17th-century water mill (Panchakki) situated at a distance of 1 km from

the city is known for its underground water channel, which traverses
more than 8 km. to its source away in the mountains. The channel
culminates into an artificial waterfall that powers the mill. The city is also
famous for the 52 gates built in Mughal era which gives it a name as
"City of Gates". Aurangabad Caves, situated at a distance of 5 km (3
mi), nestled amidst the hills are 12 Buddhist caves dating back to 3 A.D.
Of particular interest are the Tantric influences evident in the
iconography and architectural designs of the caves. The Salim Ali Lake
& Bird Sanctuary, popularly known as Salim Ali Talab is located near
Delhi Gate, opposite Himayat Bagh. It is located in the northern part of
the city. During the Mughal period it was known as Khiziri Talab. It has
been renamed after the great ornithologist and naturalist Salim Ali. It
also has a bird Sanctuary and a garden maintained by the
Aurangabad Municipal Corporation. The Shuli bhanjan is a nearing
hill station with Dattatreya Temple.

Introduction:

McLaren Technology Centre, Woking, UK

Justification:

 To understand the planning and circulation for the different

performing spaces which is planned under a single roof.
 To understand the construction techniques and modern
technologies and the steel structure which hold a complete roof.

Objective:

The main idea behind the project is to study the various spaces and building structure that
merges with nature simultaneously taking advantage of the nature

and development at Formula One cars, high performance road cars, electronic
systems and composite materials. Since McLaren began competing in Formula One
in 1966, it has established a global reputation as one of the most successful teams in
the performance sports cars. Viewed on plan, the building is roughly semi circular
the circle being completed by a lake, which forms an integral part of the building’s
cooling system. Shaded by a cantilevered roof, the lakeside façade is a continuous
curved glass wall, developed in part using McLaren’s own technological expertise.
Internally, the building’s circulation is organised around double height linear ‘streets’
which articulate ‘fingers’ of flexible floor space; these house production and parts
storage areas on the lower levels, with top-lit design studios, offices and meeting
rooms above. Directly behind the façade is a broad ‘boulevard’ which leads to
areas for hospitality and to the staff restaurant both of which look out across the
lake. Other social facilities include a swimming pool and a fitness centre.history of

The Technology Centre provides a headquarters for the group and is designed to
reflect the company’s design and engineering expertise. It includes design studios,
laboratories and testing and production facilities for Formula One and high

An organic form was decided upon which was further shaped by the fact that
McLaren International (the Racing division) required more space than the other
Business. The best way to resolve this was to pursh the glass clad façade forward at
that point in the curve and so create a ‘ying and yang’ S shaped interlocking with the
lake in front of the building.

The main steel elements of the building include all the superstructure columns,
beams at first floor and at roof level, while features such as an external curved
walkway overlooking the lake and a 7m cantilever at roof level are also made from
steel. A further benefit at this was that the post contract programmed had a
reduced design and checking time. Standardized beam sizes and sections were
specified giving benefits at both the design and construction phases. As all the
design information was available from contract award, the steelwork fabricator was
able to erect works sequentially from one end of the site to the other.

swimming pool and a fitness centre.

An underground visitor and learning centre is connected to the main building by a

walkway.

A 145 metre long, rectangular-circuit shaped wind tunnel is located at one end of
the building.

Team McLaren uses it for testing and development of aerodynamic parts, as well as
testing aerodynamic set-ups. The Tunnel contains 400 tonnes of steel and air is
propelled by a 4 metre wide fan that rotates at up to 600 rpm.

The building is accompanied by a series of artificial lakes: one formal lake directly
opposite that completes the circle of the building, and a further four “ecology”
lakes.

Together they contain about 50,000 m3 of water. This water is pumped through a
series of heat exchangers to cool the building and to dissipate the heat produced
by the wind tunnels.

The study represents the figures of Indian Automobile Industry during the period 2005to
2010. The study has been conducted considering the segments such as passenger vehicle,
commercial vehicle, utility vehicles, multi-purpose, two wheelers and three wheelers. Each
section concisely explains the current and future market trends, and developments in the
Indian automobile market. The methodology used to find the trends and the market share
of the Indian automobile industry. The research takes into account the past and current
trends in an economy, and more specifically in an industry, to bring out an objective
market analysis. Despite economic slowdown, the Indian automobile sector has shown
high growth. The economic sustainability and increasing living standards and purchasing
powers of the Indian customer’s automobile sector has a bright coming future. The Industry
is recording increasing growth rate in sales, but still there are loop holes in the automobiles
industry and these needs to be considered by the auto mobile industry to overcome.

Every major shift in policies made by the Indian government, the automotive
industry has come out stronger and better. While the shift in policies seems to
have mostly been brought by chance events, the Indian government has at
least to be credited for making the right decisions and implementing them
correctly. It is paradoxical that the Indian middle class, the most attractive
feature for foreign investment in the liberalization phase, was an outcome of
the statist ideologies in the regulatory phase. The product innovations of
domestic firms like Tata Motors and Bajaj Auto today are the fruits of
indigenization and protection policies of the regulatory phases [1]. Buyer
decision processes are the decision making processes undertaken by
consumers in regard to a potential market transaction before, during, and after
the purchase of a product or service. Consumers have to make different kinds
of decisions everyday according to their different needs. Some of the decisions

RUCHA KHALIKAR,B-ARCH,MIT AURANGABAD Page 15

AUTOMOBILE RESEARCH AND TRAINING INSTITUTE

are playing critical roles in consumers’ daily life, for example, purchasing a new
home or purchasing a car, whereas sometimes the decisions are made on a
virtually automatic basis. There are not a lot published research articles
available on the decision-framing process. Puto, C. proposed a conceptual
model of the buying decision framing process, see Figure below. This model
focuses on the information search phase which includes two reference points:
an initial which is internal to the company-expectations and buying objectives,
and a final one that takes into account the sales message and
justification/reward of the offer. These two stages lead to the final choice.
