 THINK ABOUT ALL OF IT
• Why do they look so different ?

• Number of storeys constructed by every method are different

• Material used can you guess?

• Crafting / Constructions method can you name ?

• Are the Building Forms dependent on material and construction

method ?

• Are the Roofing methods associated to construction method?

 THINK ABOUT ALL OF IT

Are the Building Forms

dependent on material and
construction method ? Study the construction

materials of these structures

 MAP THE STRUCTURES
assignment
Fetch the Google Satellite map for a radius of 5 KM of
your neighbourhood

Take out a print of Google map (not the satellite map)

Using the primary colours fill the profiles of the

enlisted buildings on the print of Google map and
keeping satellite map as reference document

• RCC bungalows using BLUE

• RCC midrise using YELLOW

• RCC high rise using RED

Create a pie chart showing numbers of each colour fill

25
And all previous
assignment show that

Material of construction and

method of construction are dependant on

1. Need and scale of the structure

2. Avaliability of the material

3. Economic viability

4. Avaliability of time
