3. 3 INTRODUCTION The study entitle “Present Status of Apartment Building in world“ is undertaken as a project work in the context of completing “Apartment Design” conducted by Department of
Architecture, Purwanchal Campus Dharan. The National Census (2068 B.S.) revealed that the total population in Nepal is 26,494,504. Out of which the male and female population are 48.50% and 51.50%
respectively. The populations settling in the urban areas are 17.07%.The density of population in the urban area is 1381 compared to 153 persons per square kilometer in rural area. Though Nepal has the
lowest urbanization rate in south Asia at 14 per cent its urban growth rate is 6.4 per cent which is the highest in south-Asia. In the last decade population growth in the urban areas was 3 times that of the
country as a whole. Kathmandu has high population density (4416 person per square kilometer) compared to other part of the country. Nepal has a total of 5,423,297 households, of which 85.26% and
12.81% families are residing in their own house and rented houses respectively. The total number of houses/buildings or residential structures until 2068 are 4,768,196. The development pace between
rural and urban parts of the country resulted people migrating to urban areas for better opportunities and quality life. Opportunities for self- employment in enterprises have attracted people in urban
areas. Health, education and other facilities are well developed in urban areas compared to rural. The migration of the large rural population from the countryside and the influx of foreigner for business
and other purposes have created a need for additional housing facilities. The available land in the urban areas is limited to provide housing facilities to the growing population. In order to cater the
housing needs of increasing population, multi-story buildings in the forms of collective and apartment housings are being developed. People residing in urban areas have less time to arrange the various
physical facilities and security measures on their own. Further, those residing in the individual houses also prefer to move into the apartments for availing better security and physical facilities. The good
earning populations, who are unable to spend time for building their house are also seeking for the readymade apartments/buildings. These factors necessitate the need for the apartment buildings.
Increase in demand of housing will continue as the new generation prefers nuclear families. The growing demand of the apartments has provided the opportunities for business communities to diverse
the investment in the multi-story building sector. The local municipalities were the only authority to give approval to construct a house a er examining the drawings and inspecting the construction site.
The limited technical and financial resources in the municipalities has posed a problem to examine the overall aspects of construction that includes environmental assessment, structural design, sanitary,
water supply and plumbing system, firefighting system, electrical system and design etc. in details. These factors are of utmost importance to maintain safe and quality living.

6. 6 Literature review Urbanization Defination An increase in a population in cities and towns versus rural areas. Urbanization began during the industrial revolution, when workers moved towards
manufacturing hubs in cities to obtain jobs in factories as agricultural jobs became few in common. Urbanization is not merely a modern phenomenon, but a rapid and historic transformation of human
social roots on a global scale, whereby predominantly rural culture is being replaced by urban culture. Urbanization can describe a specific condition at a set time, i.e. the proportion of total population or
area in cities or towns, or the term can describe the increase of this proportion over time. Urbanization •Urbanization in context of Nepal is defined as the: change in urban growth and cities form. •The
transformation of rural area (or hinterland or fringes) into urban form which links with transportation to grow into cities.Urban growth: economy and population density. Trend of Urbanization in Nepal
•Urbanization is an essential part of economic growth, social and political change, technical and scientific advances and progress in various areas. Urbanized settlement or the cities are probably the most
complex settlements evolved from primitive villages to towns, then to the cities. •The origin of urban settlements in Nepal is obscure. Very little is known about urban living in Nepal during the period of
Kirants.The historical evidences on the existence of towns in the Kathmandu valley are found only for the Lichhavis period (100 BC to 1000 AD). By the eleventh century, three principle settlements in the
Kathmandu valley had already started to be referred to as capital towns. Future cities in rapid Urbanization •Rapid urbanization is taking place across the globe. Future Cities will explore the components
of a successful city, and will use these discoveries to drive critical planning across all relevant sectors, internationally. •Future Cities will consider the pillars that create the foundation of a Future City: -
Security, -Water & Waste Management,
7. 7 -Tourism & Hospitality, -E icient transport, -Energy Management, -Disaster Relief and Green Building Challenges of Urbanization •Environmental impacts •Unemployment •Urban poverty (poor
living condition) •Criminal activities •Original fabric of building will be lost due to physical changes •Directly e ect on conservation of nature as well as heritage. •Urban congestion •Rise in market price of
service utilities relating to daily life activities Others -Tra ic problems -Environment pollution -Tra ci jam -Rise in concrete jungles in cities -Lack of pedestrian -Congestion APARTMENT An apartment, or
flat, is a self-contained housing unit that occupies only part of a building. Such a building may be called an apartment building, especially if it consists of many apartments for rent. Apartments may be
owned by an owner/occupier or rented by tenants. In simple words apartment is the building in which accommodation is provided for 3 or more families living independently of one another. HISTORICAL
BACKGROUND High-rise apartment buildings had already appeared in ancient antiquity: the “insulae in ancient Rome” and several other cities in the Roman Empire, some of which might have reached up
to 10 or more stories, one reportedly having 200 stairs. In Egypt, there were many high-rise residential buildings, some seven stories tall that could reportedly accommodate hundreds of people. Al-
Muqaddasi in the 10th century described them as resembling minarets, while Nasir Khusraw in the early 11th century described some of them rising up to 14 stories, with roof gardens on the top storey
complete with ox-drawn water wheels for irrigating them. By the 16th century, Cairo also had high-rise apartment
8. 8 buildings where the two lower floors were for commercial and storage purposes and the multiple stories above them were rented out to tenants. The 16th century Yemeni city of Shibam is made up
of over 500 tower houses, each one rising 5 to 11 stories high, with each floor having one or two apartments. The city has the tallest mud buildings in the world, with some of them over 30 meters (100
feet) high. During the 19th century tenements became the predominant type of new housing in Scotland's industrial cities, although they were very common in the Old Town in Edinburgh from the 15th
century where they reached ten or eleven storeys high and in one case fourteen storeys. Built of sandstone or granite, Scottish tenements are usually three to five storeys in height, with two to four flats on
each floor. In 1839, the first New York City tenement was built, housing mainly poor immigrants. The Dakota (1884) was one of the first luxury apartment buildings in New York City. The majority, however,
remained tenements. Some significant developments in architectural design of apartment buildings came out of the 1950s and 60s. Apartments were popular in Canada, particularly in urban centers like
Vancouver, Toronto and Montreal in the 1950s to 1970s. By the 1980s, many multi-unit buildings were being constructed as condominiums instead of apartments, and both are now very common.
Specifically in Toronto, high-rise apartments and condominiums have been spread around the city, giving almost every major suburb a skyline. Earliest apartment buildings were in the major cities of
Sydney and Melbourne as the response to fast rising land values. Melbourne Mansions on Collins Street, Melbourne (now demolished), built in 1906 for mostly wealthy residents is believed by many to be
the earliest. NEED OF APARTMENTS Scarcity of land. Higher land value. Inconveniency of services like water supply in individual level. Inconveniency of construction work in individual level.
Security and privacy. Increase in population. Migration to city. Trend of parent-child unit eliminating the extended family concept. CHARACTERISTICS OF HIGH RISE APARTMENTS Two

42. 42 HOUSING CASE STUDY: 3.HABITAT ‘67’ INTRODUCTION Moshe Safdie is an Israeli-born leading architect, urban planner, educator, theorist, and author. Embracing a comprehensive and humane
design philosophy. He is committed to architecture that supports and enhances a project’s program; that is informed by the geographic, social, and cultural elements that define a place; and that
responds to human needs and aspirations. Having completed a wide range of projects, such as cultural, educational, and civic institutions; neighbourhood's and public parks; mixed-use urban centres
and airports; and master plans for existing communities and entirely new cities. Safdie moved to Canada in the 1950s, first developed the ‘’Habitat ’67‘’ concept as part of his thesis at McGill University in
1961, entitled "A Case for City Living" .When Safdie, still an intern, starting his career in the o ice of Louis Khan, he submitted his design for the Montreal Expo ’67 entitled as “Man and his World’’
43. 43 INSPIRRATION Habitat's living units resembled a Taos Indian pueblo. Pueblos,( community - town – village) Communities housed in apartment structures built of stone, adobe mud, and other
local material. These structures were usually multi-storied buildings surrounding an open plaza. The rooms were accessible only through ladders lowered by the inhabitants, thus protecting them from
break-ins and unwanted guests PROJECT OVERVIEW Habitat 67 is a housing complex located in Montreal, Canada designed by Moshe Safdie and built in 1967 for the World’s Exposition. The housing
complex is made up of prefabricated modules combined in di erent ways to make up various combinations. Each uses between one and five modules. The complex consists of 354 modules making up
158 residences. The residences themselves range from 600 square feet (one bedroom) to 1800 square feet (four bedrooms). The complex contains three elevator cores that stop every fourth floor of the
twelve story complex, giving the residents access to pedestrian footpaths that link the dwellings. The complex contains roof gardens, private terraces, central heating and cooling, and covered parking for
the residents in each dweling. The original design was meant to contain 1000 units, including a retail facility. However, the project was minimized for the World’s Exposition. All the parts of this 12 story
complex are load bearing and connected by post tensioning cables, hightension rods, cables, and welding. This makes the complex one continuous suspension system. It’s a multi-leveled residential
modules on five di erent stories and was built in 1967. It took three years to develop (1964-67) and cost $17 million Canadian. The total area of the property comprises 22,160 sq. m. (238,500 sq ).
44. 44 MAIN CHARACTERISTICS Habitat ’67 pioneered the combination of two major housing typologies – the urban garden residence and the modular highrise apartment building. The Habitat ’67 is
actually 12- storey complex (158 dwelling units) with the following main characteristics: - 15 models varying between 1 and 5 modules - Views on 3 sides and landscaped terraces - Surface areas vary from
624 to 3,000 square feet, - Spread out over 1, 2, 3 floors - Private terraces from 225 to 1,000 square feet - 6 elevators - Walkways at various levels giving access to residences - Central heating and air
conditionin - Central heating and air conditioning - excellent Sound proof CONSTRUCTION As Habitat was designed, it resembled a curious concrete mountain of dwelling places, strikingly modern. Each
rectangular module would cross over another, so the roof of the one underneath would bear the load of the one on top, with the non- overlapping areas generating patches of outdoor space. The
apartments consist of one to four 55m² boxes creating various configurations. All of the houses have one 20m² to 90m² private roof garden. Each unit looks similar to the rest , creating a common
external appearance. But every house is di ers from the others when it comes to the interior, as the resident can transform his space.
45. 45 CIRCULATION Common circulation =Circulation within the habitat is achieved through 18 external corridors- streets 7 stair sha s and 6 elevator sha s, without the elevator being the main
access to upper stories as it stops at every forth floor. Private circulation= Many of the apartment consist of more than one boxes that are interconnected through small staircases The circulation system
gives to the habitat the essence of a vertically developed village. Diagrams-Sections Every apartment gets at least three hours of sunlight every day. Combining private and public elements Views-

47. 47 CONCLUSION Not only revolutionary in its time, Habitat 67 has continued to influence architecture throughout the decades as a manifesto for a universal, modular, urban housing. Habitat 67 is
a historic monument, recognized around the globe. This emblematic building, had significant press coverage and caused a lot of ink to flow, both locally and internationally and still does. Moshe Safdie
and his work, have definitely brought an architectural revolution. His fresh ideas about how a housing complex should actually be, have changed the way we design and the way we think about the
apartment blocks once and for all Not only he came up with ways to improve the housing complexes :with the prefabricated interlocking and interconnecting overlapping modules, creating private and
communal spaces, planted terraces and more , but he also sets the tone as to where architecture should be taking as next in this new lifestyle witch demands di erent housing qualities. REFERENCE
