ARC309- DESIGN THEORY AND CRITICISM

ABSTRACT-
In this research report the cause of need of development of smart cities
is discussed and the effects of the style of human settlement in that city
are taken out. The role of green buildings in smart city , influence of
green buildings in that city, environmental or social impacts is
discussed. Moreover, why the need of smart city is required is also
catered out and the solution for the fastener the development of smart
cities is also discussed. In this report, the major impacts of building in
the cities are the carbon prints as the overloading of sewage waste
output and the high demand of electricity and infrastructure. Rural
areas are now getting converted into urban areas or the areas just
around the urban boundary.

INTRODUCTION-
This report is totally based on the role of green buildings in the smart
cities. India has announced 100+ cities which are changing into smart
cities. Ludhiana is one of the cities in that list. The aim of the conversion
of the cities into smart cities is to give human comfort life in dense and
highly populated cities. in the development of smart cities green
buildings plays an important role in that development. As we know the
maximum carbon print is from buildings to the environment. Therefore
the maximum role of environmental impacts on city is of buildings.
More The self energy efficient building is, lesser will be the electricity
demand, therefore that saved electricity could be used for the public
transportation means. More the greenery should be, more will be the
sustainable balance between human and environment. The increasing
of water pollution, air pollution, and soil pollution are the major cause
of human diseases. These are the only causes due to which
redevelopment of that particular city is needed. That’s the one of the
main reason why that cities are kept in smart cities.

PROBLEM ANALYSIS/ LITERATURE REVIEW-

While making this research report major issues that faced were the lack
of data analysis available in the government websites. The data
required for the calculation for the number of dwelling units required
by next years is taken as the estimation process. There is no direct data
available that how much any building is producing carbon foot print in
that particular area.

OBJECTIVES-
The main objective of this report is that to find out easiest way for the
fastening of the development of any smartcity. Moreover, the role/
importance of green building in smart city is also kept at its main
objective.

HYPOTHESES-
The hypotheses of this report is that to study of role of green buildings
in smart city and to study the methods of development of the smart
city and easiest way of development of smart cities.

LIMITATIONS-
The collection of research data for this report is kept limited. Means,
the research boundary is kept limited i.e. the research is based on the
particular area of the smart city.

METHODOLOGY-
At the first stage of the research report, the crisis is calculated for that
smart city. After getting the data about the sex ratio, age difference,
users type etc then the calculation of the per capita area demand is
calculated. In the smart cities the highly dense areas where the urban
heat effect is more , population is more, the sewage input is more or
the carbon footprint is more.

After getting the data collection of users then the carbon footprint data
is collected in which the electric demand , water demand and the
human comfort is calculated.

After that the green building construction techniques and its cost is
calculated so that it could be seen that the how much construction cost
differs as the ordinary building and the green building.

There is very much need of the green buildings and the energy efficient
buildings in any sustainable cities. After that the general calculation is
made-up for the production of electrical energy according to the
human need in any particular building.

RESULTS-
In this report the construction of green buildings or energy efficient
energy building should be promoted in any undergoing development
city.

Moreover the migration of the peoples should be minimized from the

rural to urban areas. Because this is only factor which effects the

planning of the city. Migration is not constant for any time it varies due
to the poor infrastructure in rural areas as compare to urban areas.

CONCLUSSION-
During the redevelopment of the smart city, the traffic should be
catered out by widening the roads. Government should give residential
sectors in the outer city portion and should develop sub-urban areas in
the outer part of city so that to stop the creation of slum. Carbon
footprint should be minimized at any cost. By creating awareness in the
peoples about the environment and the water demand of the users.
