5.IMPLEMENTATION OF THIS PART :-
 WHEN A BUILDING IS ERECTED, THIS PART OF THE CODE IS APPLIED TO DESING THE
CONSTRUCTION OF THE BUILDING.
 IF THE EXISTING STRUCTURES ARE TO BE RENOVATED OR ADDED & OR ALTERNATIONS OF THE
BUILDING PARTS MAY BE APPLIED OF THIS PART.
 OWNER HAS OPPURTUNITY TO MAKE NEW PARTS TO BUILDINGS EQUALLY MODIFICATIONS
BECAUSE OF THIS CODE.

6.SITTING,FORM, & DESIGN :- MOHIT

 7.EXTERNAL DEVELOPMENT & LANDSCAPE:- MIHIR S.

8.ENVELOPE OF OPTIMIZATION:- OM W.
 IT SHOULD BE ABLE TO CONSERVE ENERGY , WHICH MAKE IT WELL DESIGNED
BUILDING WHICH IS MAXIMIZES DAYLIGHT,NATURAL VENTILATION,VIEWS TO
EXTERIOR, AND CONTROL OR REDUCE NOISE WITH SOLAR HEAT GAIN.
 IT CAN BE DESIGNED IN COMBINE WITH RENEWALBE , RAINWATER HARVESTING , &
OTHER CLIMATIC ZONES IN ACCORDANCE TO GUIDANCE .
 THE ENVELOPE COMPONENTS DETERMINE THE HEAT GAIN OR LOSS AND WIND THAT
ENTERS INSIDE THE BUIDING.
 THE COMPONENTS ARE WALLS , ROOF , FENESTRATION (OPENINGS WITH OR
WITHOUT GLAZING) , FLOOR , AND SURFACE FINISHES .
 WALLS :- IT IS THE MAJOR PART OF THE BUILDING WHICH IS EXPOSED TO EXTERNAL
CONDITIONS SUCH AS OUTSIDE AIR TEMPERATURE , WIND , & SOLAR RADIATIONS.
THE WALL SHOULD BE CLIMATICALLY SUITABLE TO BUILDINGS COMFORT WHICH
SHOULD BE THICKENED, THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY , THERMAL RESISTIVITY,
ABOSRBIVITY , & CAPACITY.
 THERMAL INSULATION :- APPLYING INSULATION ON THE EXTERNAL SURFACE,
IT IS REDUCING THE THERMAL CONDUCTANCE VALUE OF WALLS . WHICH IS HEAT
GAIN & HEAT LOSS . THE INSULATION SHOULD ALWAYS BE PLACED ON EXTERNAL
SURFACE OF HOTTER SIDE OF WALLS . INSULATION CONTROLS THE INTERIOR
RAIDANT TEMPERATURE . INSULATION MADE FROM VARIOUS OTHER MATERIALS.
THE MATERIALS ARE THICKNESS , DENSITY , RESISTIVITY , CNDUCTIVITY , FIRE
RESISTANCE , MOISTURE RESISTANCE . IT SHOULD BE RECOMMENDATIONS FROM
MAUFACTURERS .
CATERGORIES ARE :- RIGID OR SEMI RIGID BLOCKS AND BOARDS ,
BOARDS WITH IMPACT OR WEATHER RESISTANT SURFACE
SUITABE AS EXTERIOR GRADE MATERIAL ,
LOOSE FILL ,
FOAM AND DRY SPRAY , &
BLANKES , FELTS OR SHEETS .
 THERMAL MASS :- INCREASING WALL THICKNESS.
 AIR CAVITIES :- PROVIDING CAVITIES IN WALLS ,
 SURFACE FINISHES :- APPLYING LIGHT COLOURED PAINTS ON WALLS

 ROOFS :-
THE BUILDINGS RECEIVE HEAT THROUGHOUT , MAINLY OF R.C.C. AS ROOFING
MATERIAL WHICH HAS THERMAL CODUCTIVITY THE SLAB THICKNESS IS LESS THAN
100 MM TO 150 MM .
IT IS EXPOSED TO TEMPERATURE WHICH ALSO RISE AS THE DAY CONTINUES.
BUT WHEN AC IS USED TO MAINTAIN THE LESSER TEMPERATURE INSIDE THE ROOM

 THERE ARE DIFFERENT TYPES OF ROOF MATERIALS FOR INSULATION TO IT WHICH
AGAINST THE HEAT FROM OUTSIDE TO INSIDE .

 OVER – DECK INSULATION :- IT IS A INSULTION WHICH IS PROVIDED OVER THE R.C.C.

ROOF SO THAT THE HEAT OF THE SUN IS NOT ALLOWED TO REACH TO R.C.C.SLAB OF
ROOF.
 OVER DECK INSULATION MATERIALS :-
 USE OF PREFORMED INSULATION MATERIALS :- EXPANDED POLYSTYRENE SHEET,
EXTRUDED POLYSTYRENE SHEET,
POLYURETHANE SHEET,
PERLITE BOARD.
 IN – SITU APPLICATION OF SPRAY POLYURETHANE ,
 CONVENTIONAL ROOF INSULATION PRACTICES ,
 OTHER TRADITIONAL ROOF INSULATION .
 UNDER – DECK INSULATION :- SOME HEAT PASSES THROUGH IT AMD HEATS UP THE
AMBIENCE OF THE ROOM , WHICH IS MAKES DISCOMFORT IN THE ROOM , THEREFORE
THE AC LOAD IS INCREASED
 FENESTRATION :-
THE MOST VULNERABLE MATERIALS IN THE BUILDING ENVELOPE SYSTEM,
THE PLACEMENT OF WINDOWS WHICH MAKES TO LIGHT & AIR TO ENTER INTO THE
ROOMS , FOLLOWING CONSIDERATIONS :-
WINDOW HEIGHT IS HIGHER THE DAYLIGHT ENTERS IN THE ROOM MORE .
SILL HEIGHT , TYPES OF GLASSES FOR DAYLIGHT IN ROOM , WALL RATIO FOR
WINDOWS PLACEMENT ACCORDINGLY .
 GLAZING :- IT IS ANOTHER MATERIAL WHICH IS POLYCARBONATE SHEETS WHICH CAN
BE USED AS SKYLIGHTS , WHICH COMES WITH DIFFERENTS TINTS AND SHADES , TO
MAKE LIGHT TRANSMISSION INTO THE ROOM AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE .
 FRAME :- IT IS IMPORTANT MATERIAL FOR MAKING FRAME WITH DIFFERENT
MATERIALS SUCH AS WOOD , METAL , ALUMINUIM , & OTHER MATERIALS STONES ,
OR R.C.C.
 SHADING DEVICES : THE TERM ITSELF MEANS TO BREAK THE LIGHT WHICH IS
DIRECTLY TO CONTROL IT THERE IS OTHER CONSTRCUTION TECHNIQUES SUCH AS
FINS , CHAJJAS (SUN BREAKER) .

9.MATERIALS :- ANKIT P.

10.WATER & WASTER MANAGEMENT :- JAY R.

11.BLDG. SERVICES OPTIMIZATION :- PRASAD R.

12.CONSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICES :- OMKAR T.
