Approach To Case Study

Case studies involve detailed investigations of existing buildings through site surveys and analysis of available information. This helps understand various aspects to consider in design. A case study analysis includes: 1) Site analysis of location, topography, infrastructure. 2) Built form analysis of floors, functions, design, materials and sustainability strategies. 3) Drawings of plans, elevations, sections. 4) Critical analysis of strengths and weaknesses across areas like function, aesthetics and construction. 5) Conclusion on positive/negative impacts on users, environment and society.

Analysis of Case Study (Thesis)

Case study is a method of research involving a detailed investigation of an existing building or


a group of buildings and includes site surveys and analysis of existing information. This in
turn helps to understand the various aspects to be considered during designing.
1. Site analysis

Area of the site in acres (sq. m.)

Site approach and major /minor roads abutting site

Orientation of site

Soil type

Topography

Location of site with key plan (Distances from Airport, Railway station and Bus stand)

Site surroundings with major nearby landmarks

Natural and Manmade landscape features on the site (water body, mound etc.)

Site drainage system

Water Supply system

Sewerage disposal system

Rainwater disposal system

HT lines

Parking Details
2. Built Form Analysis

Floor-wise area of building

Form and Function

Concept of planning

Development Bye-laws (Covered area, FAR, Setbacks etc.)

Plans of all floors

Construction system

Materials used in interior and exterior of building

Strategies for energy efficiency/sustainability

Aesthetics

Inter relationship between spaces

Light and Ventilation

Service core (HVAC, Water supply, Sewerage, Drainage, Fire Fighting system)

Vertical circulation

Rainwater harvesting

Electric substation
3. Drawings

Location Plan and Site plan

Plans of All Floors

Elevations

Sections

View

Service Drawings
4. Critical Analysis

Critical analysis of the Case studies is to be done keeping in mind various pros and cons. The strong
points are to be kept in mind while designing and the negative points are to be avoided.
