Associations like CREDAI and NAREDCO Expert Review Prof. Dr. PSN Rao Chairman, Delhi Urban Arts Commission. New Delhi PRELUDE Building Bye-Laws are legal tools used to regulate coverage, height, building bulk, and architectural design and construction aspects of buildings so as to achieve orderly development of an area. They are mandatory in nature and serve to protect buildings against fire, earthquake, noise, structural failures and other hazards. In India, there are still many small and medium sized towns which do not have building bye-laws and in the absence of any regulatory mechanism, such towns are confronted with excessive coverage, encroachment and haphazard development resulting in chaotic conditions, inconvenience for the users, and disregard for building aesthetics, etc. It is in this context, TCPO has made an effort to prepare “Model Building Bye-Laws- 2016” for the guidance of the State Governments, Urban Local Bodies, Urban Development Authorities, etc which is an improvement over the previous Model Building Bye Laws brought out in 2004. In 2003, the Ministry of Urban Development desired that Model Building Bye- Laws be prepared, in view of Bhuj Earthquake that occurred in 2001, to lay focus on structural safety of buildings and for the guidance of the State Governments. Accordingly, the MBBL 2004 incorporated the provisions of structural safety and other provisions like rainwater harvesting and waste water recycling, solar assisted heating, barrier free public buildings and fire safety. The Bye-Laws were circulated to all the State Governments and Union territories and out of 36 States and UTs, wherein 22 States and UTs have undertaken comprehensive revision of their respective Building Bye-Laws since 2004. The Raison d'être for revising the Bye-Laws are as under: 1. Growing Environmental concerns 2. Increased Safety and Security measures 3. Technological Developments 4. Swachh Bharat Mission 5. Focus on Ease of Doing Business In 2015, it was further desired by the Ministry of Urban Development that the Model Building Bye-Laws, 2004 needs to be revised and updated keeping in view the emerging issues like Norms for Rooftop Solar PV Installation, Segregated sanitation facilities for visitors in public buildings, Additional provisions in Building regulations for natural hazard prone areas, Conservation of heritage sites including heritage buildings, heritage precincts and natural feature areas, Bye-laws for safe use of glass, barrier free environment for disabled, children and old persons and Mitigation of the effects of electromagnetic radiation on built spaces. The Draft Model Building Bye-laws, 2016 were circulated to Central Governments agencies/ institutes like National Disaster Management Authority, Bureau of Indian Standards, National Building Construction Corporation, Delhi Development Authority, National Capital Region Planning Board, Indian Institute of Public Administration, Municipal Corporation of Delhi (South), Housing and Urban Development Corporation, Schools of Planning and Architecture, State Town and Country Planning Departments, selected Urban Development Authorities, selected Urban Local bodies and associations like CREDAI and NAREDCO for obtaining their comments and suggestions. A National Workshop on Draft Model Building Bye Laws, 2016 was held on 18.2.2015 mainly to obtain comments / suggestions from the State Town and Country Planning Departments/Urban Development Authorities/ Municipal Corporations and Schools of Planning and other related stakeholders like Association of Real Estate Developers and private consultants. The workshop was attended by 110 participants and comments/suggestions on following issues emerged out in the day long deliberations- • Norms for High Rise Buildings (Chapter 5) • Norms for differently abled, senior citizens and children (Chapter 8) • Sustainability and Green buildings (Chapter 10) • Streamlining building pla approvals, Ease of Doing Business (Chapter 13) • Norms for Low income housing • Parking Norms (public parking space for vehicles in CBD) • Flexible FAR prescriptions • Incorporation of new terms in definitions • Updation of all IS Codes of BIS • Updating fire provisions with respect to staircase and exits. A review meeting was held under the chairmanship of Secretary (UD) on 06.07.2015 wherein Joint Secretary (UD) made a presentation on the draft MBBL, 2016. In the meeting, it was decided that the draft may also be circulated to related Ministries involved in granting NOCs for construction projects. Comments were received from the Ministries of Culture, Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution, Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation, Power, Water Resources and River development and Ganga Rejuvenation and Civil Aviation. The relevant comments received from all the concerned have been duly incorporated in the MBBL, 2016. The salient features of MBBL- 2016 are given as under - • Safety and security (Chapter-6): includes Structural Safety, Disaster management as per Prof. Arya Committee Report and BIS Codes including Structural Design Basis Report (SDBR) for various building types. Prevention measures against “Soft Storeys” in multi-storeyed buildings and Proof Checking of Structural Design for buildings. • Barrier Free Environment: Provisions for Differently abled, Elderly and Children including Site development, Access Path/ Walk Way, Parking, Building requirements, Stair, Lifts, Toilets, Drinking Water, Refuge and signage. • Environmental Concerns: Additional Chapter-10 incorporated for Green Buildings and Sustainability provisions, Rainwater Harvesting, Wastewater Reuse and Recycle and installation of Solar Roof Top PV norms. • Adoption for Modern Construction Technology: Additional Chapter-5 incorporates Definitions, Structural Safety and other provisions for Highrise Building regulations with Parking, Peripheral Open Spaces including set-backs. Disaster Management & Fire Safety. • Swachh Bharat Mission: Revised Norms for adequate toilet facilities for women and Public Conveniences in Public Buildings and Mandatory Provisions for Segregated toilet facilities for visitors in Public Buildings. • Ease of Doing Business: Additional Chapter-14 includes Provision for Online Building plan approval process adopting automated systems of plan scrutiny, generation of reports/approvals and integrated systems of intimation of approval, Compliance report from drawings for automatic generation of Completion certificate and integration of various clearances at Master Plan levels and introduction of Integrating “Single Window” process, Empowering Architects, Outsourcing non discretionary verification jobs and formulation of Citizen’s Charter. • Rain Water Harvesting: Additional Chapter-9 Indicative Provisions for harvesting in various types of buildings along with responsibility of ULBs for RWH in public spaces, provisions for Enforcement and Monitoring. • Effects of Communication Technology: Additional Annexure –I, Draft Guidelines for mitigation of Electro Magnetic Radiations in built spaces by identifying emission appliances/ sources. Guidelines for safe spacing of indoor and outdoor appliances and equipment. It is hoped that the document will be useful for State Governments, Urban Local Bodies, Development Authorities, State Town Planning Departments and other Planning Agencies in various parts of the country in revising their respective Building Bye Laws.

  • Thermal and Moisture Protection: Keeping the Weather out Internet Course
    Rich Text Editor,editor1 http://www.licensetobuild.com/web-class/controls/?mt=coursemanagem... Thermal and Moisture Protection: Keeping the Weather Out Internet Course Learning Objectives Summarize the key elements (either natural or mechanical) of a properly ventilated structure. List and describe at least three specific installation techniques and/or materials that contribute to a properly constructed roof system. Outline at least one design strategy based on "best practices" for the construction of buildings in areas with high humidity. Identify and implement proven methods that will effectively divert moisture from the foundation of a structure. Keeping the Weather Out Protecting buildings from weather and moisture related problems is important for all building professionals. In areas of high humidity, (and ALL Florida counties are considered "warm humid counties" by the Florida Building Code: Energy Conservation 301.2), it is even more important that builders, their employees, and their subcontractors use “Best Practice” procedures to carefully install thermal and weather resistant components. Because of the potential for loss due to consumer complaints and claims, it makes sense for contractors to be trained in moisture control for the homes and buildings they are constructing or renovating. Major performance objectives. One objective of a building envelope system is to provide moisture control. Construction of a building envelope system needs to incorporate methods and materials that prevent or minimize the impact of moisture intrusion. The photo below shows typical damage caused by poorly installed or maintained building envelope components! Too often, exterior shells are simply sealed up without regard for proper installation of house- wraps, flashing and ventilation.

  • Lime Plaster & Plaster Lath for Damp Buildings
    Lime Plaster & Plaster Lath for Damp Buildings Lime Plaster & Plaster Lath for Damp Buildings Surveying for Damp Issues with Historic Buildings. Buildings fall into two categories for the purposes of surveying for damp: I. Modern buildings built with a damp proof course and barriers to rainwater penetration. II. Old buildings built prior to mid to late 19th century depending upon the region of the country. Old buildings relied on the walls breathing and shedding moisture before damp became a problem. Damp Proofing Old Buildings In old buildings, walls were built to such a thickness that normally damp would not penetrate to the inside. The joints were always of lime mortar or earth and were more porous than the building’s structural elements comprising brick, stone etc. Consequently the joints would drain and shed water by evaporation, therefore not allowing damage to these structural elements. The joints were the sacrificial element of the building. Because lime and earth mortars are so porous, timber in contact with these mortars is less prone to decay than when bedded in cement mortar. Historic houses, when built, were able to breathe and shed water. They were also heated by coal or log fires in an open fireplace which promoted rapid air changes by way of air being drawn out through the chimney. Windows and doors were not sealed as they are today allowing air movement into and out of the building. Internal finishes were lime washed which allowed surfaces to breathe and, although it would discolour when damp, it would not peal off the wall like wall paper nor blister like modern paint.
