External finish

•The entire complex is finished with combination of granite, composite metallic

cladding, Acrylic paint and structural glazing. The lower levels of the building
have been given a more transparent look with large glazed part being offered
to foyer/food court/retail. This has been done also keeping in mind the
commercial aspect for shops to have maximum frontage and making the shops
more visible and lively for the crowd visiting the building.

•At the upper level on the front facade, space has been provided for
advertisements, forthcoming attractions and cinema posters, which are ideally
visible from a distance governing the external elevation.

•The lower levels glazing is treated with granite bands making a striking bold
impression on the lower shopping level and also relates itself with the mall
elevation.

•The front and the two sides of the building strategically defining the main entry
to the building have been provided with glazing at the upper level exposing the
vertical movement of crowd in the staircases. At the lower level below the
curtain glazing space frames have been proposed, which increase the visual
scale and the aesthetic appeal.
Fire fighting
Fire sprinkler system :
is an active fire protection measure, consisting of a water supply system, providing
adequate pressure and flowrate to a water distribution piping system, onto which
fire sprinklers are connected. Although historically only used in factories and large
commercial buildings, home and small building systems are now available at a cost-
effective price.

Fire hose reel system :

The length of a fully extended fire
hose is 36 meters with a diameter
of 19mm (outside diameter). A
control nozzle attached to the end
of the hose enables the operator
to control the direction and flow of
water to the fire. All fire hose reels
come with a plastic or solid brass
hose reel nozzle and mounting
bracket.

HVAC SYSTEM

HVAC (Heating, Ventilating, and Air Conditioning) refers to technology of indoor or

automotive environmental comfort. HVAC system design is a major sub discipline of
mechanical engineering, based on the principles of thermodynamics, fluid
mechanics, and heat transfer. Refrigeration is sometimes added to the field's
abbreviation as HVAC&R or HVACR, or ventilating is dropped as in HACR (such as
the designation of HACR-rated circuit breakers).

HVAC is important in the design of medium to large industrial and office buildings
such as skyscrapers and in marine environments such as aquariums, where safe and
healthy building conditions are regulated with temperature and humidity, as well as
"fresh air" from

6 systems are provided for air

One system has capacity of 600kt.

Closed-circuit television (CCTV)
is the use of video cameras to transmit a signal to a specific place, on a
limited set of monitors.
CCTV systems may operate continuously or only as required to monitor a
particular event. A more advanced form of CCTV, utilizing Digital Video
Recorders (DVRs), provides recording for possibly many years, with a variety of
quality and performance options and extra features (such as motion-
detection and email alerts

 Positive point:

•Proper colour scheme is used.

•Landscaping is beautifully done.
•Sufficient sitting area is provided inside as well as outside.
•Glazing is used for aesthetic purpose.
•Planning is done keeping in mind, keeping in mind the commercial aspect for
shops to have maximum frontage and making the shops more visible and lively
for the crowd visiting the building.
•Proper fighting system is provided.
•Proper circulation-lifts, escalators and staircase are provided.

Negative point:
The colour scheme for a cinema complex which serves the purposes of leisure and
entertainment should be little more lively and vivid to make it attractive and
commercially viable. But this can also be achieved simultaneously in harmony with
the surrounding buildings. With so many Multiplexes coming up these days, reviewing
them reveals the fact that most of them have used primary colours and modern
finishes, it is the demand of the time..
