ii. Execution
Communication & Works Department, Government of Balochistan,
Quetta.
The project is included in the current PSDP for the financial year 2018-19 vides
PSDP No. 632 with an estimated cost of Rs. 300.00 million and Rs. 150.00 millions
have been allocated for C.F.Y.
The project has been envisaged in the light growing life security threats to the Shia
Muslims of the country in general and of Quetta city particularly who regularly travel
to the neighboring Iran to visit holy places / shrines there. Quetta was established for
a population of 50,000 people. However, being the capital city of the province and the
only urbananized city with center of all educational, official health and business
activities, the population of city has grown rapidly over the last couple of decades.
The censuses carried up till 1998 reflect a consistent pattern in the population growth
rate of District Quetta. Between the censuses of 1961 and 1972 population increased
by 77.5%, between 1972 and 1981 it increased by 51.6% and between 1981 and
1998 it increased immensely by 99%. Reported growth rate in 1998 (4.13%) was in
accordance with the NIPS projection for 1995, i.e. 4.2%. according to population
census 2017, the population of Quetta city has reached to a figure of 1,726,199. The
growth of city has increased due to various factors:-
Hazara Town & Mariabad are located to the west & east of Quetta city where
majority of people belonging to Hazara tribes are settled. Being belonging to a
particular sect of Shia, they have been victim of serious of sectarianism in which
many people have lost their lives in the events of targets killings and bomb
explosions. Due to this act of terrorism, the movement of Hazara has restricted to
their own communities. As a result besides lost of lives, the community has also
suffered economic opportunities for them. Hazar town is located in the Kirani area of
Quetta Tehsil. According to population census 2017, a population of 194, 697 people
are living in this area, majority of which belong to Hazara community. The area of
Hazara town starts from Bolan Medical Complex Quetta and extends to killi
Qambrani in the south of Quetta. It is well established area with both commercial and
residential area. New commercial avenues are coming under construction due to fear
factor of target killings of Hazara community. Mariabad on the otherhand is located to
the east of city and is heavllly populated with shia muslims, majority of them are
Hazaras.
The proposed facility shall be rented out on yearly basis and revenue shall be
deposited in the public treasury / exchequer.

iv) Scope of Work
A) Designing
In order to complete the assignment the Consultant shall carry out extensive
consultations/survey with the line department, and layout the plan in order to
construct the buildings under well planned manner. Following is the scope of Work
required to be completed by the consultant:-
i) Topographic Survey
After having detailed understanding of the client’s requirements, the consultant will
proceed on the topographic survey of site. Detailed topographic survey of the site will
be performed on suitable scales at appropriate contour intervals depending upon the
general topography of the area. A scale of 1:100 will be adopted for the topographic
and physical survey. Contouring of the site will be prepared at a contour interval of 5
feet with the help of Eagle Point surface modeling software. In addition the 3D
surface model of the Residential college area will be developed with the surface
modeling, site analysis and design modules of the software.
All the physical surface and ground features and structures will be superimposed on
the contour map. Reference level will be taken from the nearest interest level
established or from an arbitrary datum, value of which will be fixed with reference
GPS. Horizontal control will be established in a similar way. Total station will be
used to carry out the required survey work.
a) Construction Materials:
2
The main types of construction materials are:
i) Brick Masonry:
It is mainly a load bearing material. Following considerations should be taken
while using bricks.
The finishing of locally available bricks is not as good as other materials. It also
emits salts giving rise to efflorescence.
ii) Blocks:
Concrete blocks of the ratio 1:3:6 with smallest size crush is widely used as a
partition wall element in a frame structure building.
Cavity blocks are also available. These are light weight and good thermal
insulators.
3
The different materials will be studied in the preceding perspectives and
materials for different requirements subsequently selected.
b) Finishes:
Different finishing materials are available which have different price ranges. The
main characteristics of a finishing material are that these should be durable, relate
to the surrounding environment and cost effective.
c) Insulating Materials:
There are mainly two types of insulating materials which are also easily available i)
Thermo pore and ii) glass wool.
Though glass wool has more density than Thermo pore yet Thermo pore can be
easily installed in walls. Glass wool can be effectively used for roof insulation.
Fiber glass insulation is available in the form of semi rigid formed sections, board
and sheets of various densities.
The next step will be the schematic design stage in which the information collected
will be utilized to come up with the architectural, Utilities design and adoption of
structure type.
i. Structural Considerations:
The seismic design of the building is accomplished through structural and
architectural means. The building architecture must permit as effective a seismic
structural design as possible; at the same time the structure must permit the
functional and aesthetic aims of the building to be realized. The architect, structural
4
Engineer and the specialist should therefore work from planning to design to
implementation stage.
The architectural design decisions that influence the building's seismic performance
can be grouped into three categories. The categories are:
The consultants are fully acquainted with the static as well as dynamic
analysis of three dimensional buildings and have successfully employed the SAP
2000 Structural Analysis for this purpose on a number of projects in the country.
5
a). Site Characteristics:
i. Topography:
The topography of a specific site influences the work of a designer in many
ways. The main consideration taken is that of contours and levels. If the site
topography is irregular and undulating different planning measures are to be taken
and these level differences are to be utilized to the functional and aesthetic beauty of
the building.
However if the site is leveled then these considerations are not necessary
and one can concentrate on any planning.
iv. Services:
The basic services include electricity, sewerage, gas, water supply and
telephone. These services play a major role in developing a site.
v. Views:
Keeping in mind the social and cultural aspects (purdah and privacy) views in
the building from outside should be obstructed by providing less openings and
louvers to the windows. While view from the site and internal spaces of the city's
skyline and mountains should be allowed.
6
The weather of the Project area is severe in both winters and summers. The
cold north wind during the winter season increases the chill factor. The summer
evenings are cool and the diurnal temperature (difference between day and night
temperatures) is more than 10oC during most of the times. The average humidity is
below 80% to 90% and is even below in summers.
The principal climatic elements, when human comfort and building design is
considered, are solar radiations, temperature, humidity, wind, precipitation and
special characteristics, earthquake, dust storms and so on. A certain amount of
climatic data for the given location should be collected and analyzed, besides the
velocity and direction of prevailing wind.
The position of the sun with respect to any point on the earth surface is defined by
the angle of azimuth and the angle of altitude.
The azimuth is simply the angle measured horizontally from the North Meridian. The
altitude is the angle, measured vertically between the sun and the horizontal plane of
the horizon.
Keeping in mind the path of the sun during different times a building can be designed
and located on the site in such a way that maximum advantage is taken of the sun
7
during winters when it is required by internal spaces and to avoid it during summers
when it is not needed.
For example, in Pishin, the solar radiation is needed from September to April so the
window shade will be projected to such a length that it does not obstruct the incoming
solar radiation.
As the sun tilts to the south during winter, the openings can be used to allow it in.
Similarly in the summer, sun which goes over the top of the building will be avoided.
Passive System:
The system collects and transfers heat by non mechanical means. In this
system the thermal energy flows by natural means such as radiation, conduction and
natural convection. The system makes use of the energy available in its environment.
8
The passive system is further divided into two namely direct gain and indirect
gain systems.
Direct Gain
This is the simplest approach to the passive solar system. In this, direct use of
sunlight is applied to the internal spaces in winters and wind in summers. This
system works throughout the year by using solar energy in winter and wind in
summer. It absorbs heat during a day time in winter by stones in the floors and
uses it for the night.
Glazing is needed on the South side and enough thermal mass (masonry wall) for
the absorption and storage. It is designed in such a way that there is maximum
exposure of the glazing to the sun in winter and minimum in summers. The material
used in this system has the ability to store heat.
In this approach there is a provision of south facing glass and enough thermal mass,
strategically located in a space for heat absorption and storage. Today the most
common material used for heat storage is masonry and water. Masonry is easily
available in Quetta and can be utilized to the full.
In a well designed direct gain building, the inside temperature during a winter
day usually ranges between 15o to 20oF (0o to 11oC)
Indirect Gain:
Other approach to passive solar heating/ cooling is the concept of indirect
gain. In this the sunlight first strikes a thermal mass which is located between the
sun and the space. The sun light absorbed by the mass is converted to thermal
energy and transferred to interior. The system which suits us well and for which
material is easily available is a direct gain one.
9
Cluster planning will be proposed with areas like administration, Academic,
Labs etc. These will be designed in clusters which will have open spaces and
covered areas and would be linked by passages, covered/ semi-covered pathways
with shrubs and fountains, pavements with seating arrangements, platforms for
gathering, terraces for small functions and courtyard for the cooling effect in
summers. All these will contribute to the creation of environmentally friendly
conditions.
In short proper placement of openings is more important than the number and
size. To the extent possible, windows should be located so that there is an easy path
for breeze to pass in summers and used to trap incoming sun radiations in winters to
heat the spaces.
10
iii) Natural lighting (Sky lights):
Natural lights can be used to cut down on the cost of electricity in the building.
The best natural light source for a working environment is from the North, because it
is diffused and its intensity throughout the day remains the same with no glare effect.
Sky light is the best source of natural lighting and if open able it helps in cross
ventilation and in exit of the rising hot air.
Hence whatever is the site orientation, the building shape and orientation
should be towards the East-West axis.
During the summers the situation is reversed and the South side receives
much less radiation in comparison to the roof and the East and West sides of the
building. Both in summers and in winters the North side of the building receives very
little radiation. Major collecting areas (glazing) of the building oriented to the South
will intercept the maximum amount of solar radiation available during the winter
months.
11
v) Adjusting Building Levels:
As the heat loss in winters and the heat gain in summers are very little
beneath the earth surface, so underground level can be used for the purpose except
for the laboratories. Therefore split levels should be employed so that openings are
given for natural light and ventilation.
12
d)) Engineering Design Consideration:
i) Proposal for Electrical System:
Based on the architectural schematic design, client’s requirements, proposed
heating, ventilation and air conditioning requirements and level of illumination
adopted for the building, the demand will be estimated and the proposal for
implementation subsequently prepared.
Landscape can be used to funnel cool breeze into the building and rooms in
the summers and a barrier to cold winds in the winter. To shade roofs, wall and coats
to lower air temperature through the evaporation of water from the leaves, and to
reduce the back radiation from the ground and the paved areas.
13
v) Social aspects:
The social factors will specially be considered and a building with inward
looking planning will be preferred which will give privacy from the surroundings and
will also save the space from being over exposed to the harshness of summers and
winters.
Based on the above aspects, schematic design of the building will be and required to
be prepared and approved by the client.
The cost estimate of the utilities and other facilities will similarly be prepared from the
rough design of the respective utilities.
ii. Analysis of the structure under the static lateral forces calculated in step 1
above, as well as under gravity and wind loads, to obtain the member design forces.
Use of dynamic analysis to estimate the seismic design forces in members will take
the place of step 1 and 2 above provided the design forces obtained from a dynamic
analysis should not be less than 90% of the corresponding forces obtained using the
equivalent static procedure.
iii. Designing the members and joints for the most unfavorable combination of
gravity and lateral loads. The emphasis will be to on the design and detailing of
members and their connections to ensure their ductile behavior.
b. Electrical Systems:
During this phase the detailed designing in respect of interior lighting, exterior
lighting and other allied systems will be carried out. This will be done by employing
different illumination levels required according to standard codes and estimating the
demand.
All conductors will be sized for the sum of loads, in kilowatt, for lighting,
motors and appliances.
The layout plans will subsequently be prepared and the lighting method
suggested.
16
Preliminary detailed design will be carried out in this phase. The demand will
be estimated using the environmental, occupancy and other factors and
subsequently the system will be designed. The layout of these points and the
disposal points, if any, will be marked on the submission drawings. If no disposal
points are found then alternate points will be evaluated and incorporated in the
design/ drawings.
d. Landscaping:
The following main considerations will be adopted for designing the landscape of the
building.
The assignment shall be outsourced to the Consultant who shall engage highly
skilled and professional staff with proven past experience of work for the survey and
17
designing of similar buildings. The team shall comprise of team leader, civil engineer,
architect, topographic survey, geologist, quantity surveyors, GIS specialist, electrical
engineer, helper etc.
