These were drafted so as to understand their technical aspects. The first half of the drawings involved studying brick bonds used in buildings, brick foundations, various types of arches and lintels in brick. The second half involved initially being introduced to framing, widening and lengthening joineries that are used to join two wooden members and then studying elements like floor, roof, staircase, doors and windows in timber wood.

Amey Ghosalkar : : : : : : : : : : : The project is based upon exploring various forms and shapes using concrete, aggregate and reinforcements. The project started by making various sketches and finalising one form and figuring out the dimensions of the product. This was done by making process models using file-card material. The shapes were divided in two categories- span and height. The next step was to make moulds for making RCC models. The moulds were made from sunboard material. These moulds were filled with cement concrete and reinforcements of steel wires. The concrete took 2-3 days to dry up. The products were then de-moulded and documented.

The Main Subject Was To Design The Structure In Rcc. It Was A Fun Exercise Where We Were Challenged To Test Ourselves With How Much Ever Knowledge We Have In Technical Subjects. Our Approach Towards It Was To Create A Simple Shady Space To Relax In A Place Like Garden . The Heart Of The Gazebo Is A Rcc Dome Shading A Spiral Staircase.Another Different Concept That We Tried Was Reinforcing Tapering Columns. Proceeding With The Structural Details We Designed The Slab, Dome, Staircase, Beam And Column Structure.Several Points Like Plinths, Headrooms ,Structural Stability , Spatial Experience , Aesthetics Were Considered While Designing.

Rajesh Shelke : : : : : : : : : : : The design features a cantilever in the shape of a hyperbolic paraboloid. Made out of watchmakers sticks, the twisted form of the structure imparts strength to endure higher loads. The sticks have been tied together with a thread, using a special knot to hold them firmly in position. The threads used to anchor the sticks at an angle of 20 degrees are stitched to the cardboard bracket that maintains the said angle. Several sticks have been fastened together to increase the cross-section of the anchored member. This acts as the main load-bearing member, which supports the sticks on which the load is placed. The efficient design of the structure enables it to bear a load much greater than its dead load.

Different types of household materials were used in the process to accomplish these end conditions. A number of books acted as the end supports for multiple cases. A few cases required paper pins which acted as the support members. The exercise proved about how RCC members behave under different end conditions. Lowflection

Exploring different forms and how to make them in reality by use of proper material. The quality of the materials available in the market, the proper material for formwork, the reinforcement, proper ratio of water aggregate and cement are to be looked upon along with the possibility of actually constructing the desired form and the errors and necessary precautions along the process. This study helps understand various learnings from the whole process and so all of these things are to be documented.

Yagnik Bathija : : : : : : : : : : : Based on the functioning of the FOREST app, the model depicts the process of defeating addiction and has been designed to reflect the complexities one has to overcome. The design tests the ability to resist distractions in children between the age of 4-10. It features a complex set of staircases moving in different directions at different levels. At each junction, there is only one correct path that will lead the child to the reward, which in this case, is the giant slide. The other paths test the focus of the child. The steps placed at the highest level, highlighted in yellow, will move upwards or downwards, depending on the path chosen by the child, which will determine whether that slide is accessible to him or not. The upward movement of the steps is a sign of the child's progress. The reward is visible from each point throughout the journey, keeping the children motivated. The structure is color-coded where the white-colored paths lead the children to the slide and the black ones toward the distractions. The design can help young gymnasts develop the ability to focus, despite distractions, in a fun and engaging manner. Appsolute Interface

This was to be studied making slabs of p.o.p one without wire mesh and other reinforced with wire mesh. The slabs were then to be dropped from a height of 1 m . The slab reinforced survived and the one unreinforced crushed. This helped us understand the nature of RCC. Effect of reinforcement in RCC

Being situated on the seaside the dominant quality is the spiritual connectivity with the water ,long journey before the entrance, strong presence in the space and a great architectural Chalukya style with 15 meter temple Shikhara situated at brahmasthan according to inscription. It starts with the presence of shrine from far away. So as we move closer. the statue of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel guides us towards the entrance due to its directional nature towards the temple. Then we move through a narrow shaded entrance towards the main gate which leads us inside. This exposes us to the series of pathways through green spaces. We get attracted towards the large shrine and the series of large columns providing the entry to the temple. Then as we get out of the temple from the sideways we get exposed towards the sea and the podium along the coastline provides a space to rest and enjoy the view of the overall environment.
