basic services like water supply, firefighting, electrification and mechanical ventilation etc. Each group was

assisted with field engineer and core faculty members. Students actually visited to every area in basement and

asked various queries to the engineer and faculty. Engineers also explained the structural part of the basements

and faculties supported the data with on site sketches to the students to understand the mechanism. The

duration for this site visit was around 2.5 hours. At the last phase the project incharge architect Ar. Kedar

Marathe communicated with students and explained them the economical factors in basement construction. It

was very insightful session for the students.

Dates of visit: 25th January, 2020

Purpose of the visit: Study of design, construction and services of Industrial steel structure

Reason for selection of this site:

The topic was studied to analyse the design, construction and services of Industrial steel structure. The above

mentioned was suitable to decode the structure in terms of our proposed objectives. This Aura laser factory is

well known for production of mechanical parts for automobile industry. Also this project was constructed in

teo phases. The earlier phase was constructed with traditional fin truss and portal arrangement. The extension

and later part of the factory was constructed in PEB construction. Therefore, it was a good opportunity to study

and analyse both systems of construction. Also the layout is simple and well worked out to understand the

segregation between the machine areas and walkways. Also this steel structure was supported with Gantry

arrangement. Therefore, it was a good site to see the crane details and lifting design of materials. Even we

received some good contacts for arranging this visit very systematically.

Summary of the inputs given before site visit (500-600 words)

The topic theory at introductory part was told to students at classrooms only. They were needed to correlate

and find out some alternative mechanisms in the project. The therotical part included topics like, components,

their fixing and design, heights, gateways, provisions of trusses, rafters, wind bracings, purlins, stanchions,

span arrangements, roofing and cladding sheet application, services like cable arrangemnets, fire fighting, rain

water disposals, light and ventilation, surface drainage, clearances, water proofing methods, loads, pressures

to be tackled by structure, design optimization and many more.

Summary of the visit: (500-1000 words)

We started with correlative theory and observatory input by the core faculty to initiate the site visit. Then the

field engineer explained us the whole project design by moving around right from entrance to exit. Also they

explained the connection to the building from old part to new extension. Then we segregated into two groups

to learn and observe structure and services. Each group was assisted with field engineer and core faculty

Pune

Name of the collaborating agency: SMEF’s brick school of architecture

Co-ordinated by: Ar. Sudhir Deshpande, Ar. Rohit Potdar, Ar. Girija Indulkar

Dates of visit: 6th July, 2019

Purpose of the visit: To study existing institutional campus of FTII and RBI for proposed housing

project

Reason for selection of this site:

The topic was studied to analyse and study of existing institutional campus of FTII and RBI for proposed

housing project. The above mentioned project was suitable to understand the idea of institutional housing

and neighbourhood living concepts. Institutional housing, a housing relating to, formulated by, or managed

by an institution. It may be a government or private institute. Any institution will consist of certain rules and

regulations that must be abided by in order to participate in the program. Basically it was a housing project

proposed for the employees of the above mentioned institutes. RBI institute was required a housing facility

for their employees. The institute includes the hierarchy of employees from class F to Class A i.e. from

deputy governor to clerical staff. The institute also needed some amenities for their resident employees and

guests. The project required the privacy and security aspects in planning as it is governed by RBI. FTII

campus of the institute was well separated with interesting un-built and built spaces. The institute was

required housing facility which was proposed at the opposite side of the present institute. The objective was

to redevelop and propose the housing project on the same site. The idea was to create a qualitative built

environment which will display the institutional character by all means. The idea is to explore creative,

innovating content from FTII campus and disciplined, simplistic approach from RBI campus for proposed

institutional housing project.

Summary of the inputs given before site visit (500-600 words)

The topic theory at introductory part was told to students at classrooms only through teacher talks, informal

group discussions, case studies, video presentations etc. The chart of observations to be noted was made

through these discussions. Faculties decided the attributes to be measured on the site. The content part

included topics like site surroundings, site accesses, internal circulation drive ways, walkways, zoning,

existing landscape and civil features, understanding the language of an institute, studying different hierarchies

of user in respective institutes, existing views, landscape elements, capacities, physical environment and many

more.

Summary of the visit: (500-1000 words)

FIELD TRIPS 2019-20

We started with correlative theory and observatory input by the core faculty to initiate the site visit. Then the

incharge person explained us the whole project design by moving around right from entrance to exit. Also they

explained the habitat, schedules, user classification, activities in their campus. Then we segregated into two

groups to learn and observe the attributes that we listed in the input sessions. Each group was assisted with

faculty members. Students actually visited to every area of the campus and asked various queries to the

in-charge personnel and faculty. The duration for this site visit was around 2 hours. At the last phase the in

charge personnel communicated with students and explained them the functioning, and housing requirement

and their future plans.. It was very insightful session for the students.

Highlights (major learnings) - (500-600 words)

It was important to understand the designing & planning ideas while proposing neighborhood living. The

behavior of the users, their primary demands, visual & physical connect of buildings are the key components

in planning process. The proposed user was from different contextual background. Therefore, it was a major

challenge & requirement to provide responsive environment through cut off spaces, open spaces, lobbies,

terraces & relaxing spaces. The objective was to create healthy social connect inside the community through

thoughtful designed spaces.

A livable habitat is always a key to connect living and working in a healthier manner. This project was also

contained 5% amenity spaces considering the preferences and psychology of residents of this institute. The

accommodation facility also needed to be designed to cater visiting teachers, guests, artists and other eminent

personalities.

ANALYSIS

• Constro helps to reduces the gap between buyer and seller. So people doesn't want to go

their actual shop and buy something. They can order it right in that stall.

• Seller gave authentic products and materials. Because they observe problems in previous product, so they make the new version to avoiding that problem in new design product.

• When we gone through the all stalls, we got to know about new technology, materials,

machineries and interior design product below one shelter from these kind of event

• we saw their different technics to construct a building. for e.g.- There was one formwork in which u have to put a concrete masonry and a house will ready within a week. So this all technics can be use in our design to ease the construction

• Every seller gave us their brochure. It helps to get more information about their products with their materials and sizes in details.

• While we were visiting each stall we observed that the constro event circulation was well

sorted so that none of the stall can have accommodation problem.

Name of the Place/Site village, city: Taljai devi temple, taljai pathar, Sahakarnagar, Pune

Name of the collaborating agency: SMEF’s brick school of architecture, Brick sketch club

Co-ordinated by: Ar. Sudhir Deshpande

Dates of visit: 6th July, 2019

Purpose of the visit: To learn on site sketching of architectural spaces.

Reason for selection of this site:

The topic was studied to learn on site sketching of architectural spaces. The above mentioned site and

location was suitable to understand the idea of sketching and various components and attributes of

sketching. The selected location was well provided with good and shady landscape with traditional temple

architecture. It is a very old temple and trees on the east side create nice shadow patterns on temple façade.

The fresh morning environment and comfortable siting places for sketch invited us for sketching activity.

Summary of the inputs given before site visit

The session was started by Ar. Sudhir Deshpande’s input session. These inputs included different principle

elements of sketching like scale, proportion, balance, light, shade and shadow patterns, human scale, focusing

objects etc. Due to this student got good orientation before the actual sketching session. He also shown some

his previous sketched and explained ideas and narrative behind them. He also suggested some sketching tools

for beginner sketchers.

Summary of the visit:

Student started with correlative theory and observatory input by the core faculty to initiate the activity. In

charge faculty suggested some spots for sketching. Students started their sketching activity and faculty guided

them throughout the session. Students put good , composed and proportionate sketches at the end of the

session. The duration of total session was 2 hours. It was very insightful session for the students.

Highlights (major learnings) - (500-600 words)

It was important to understand the difference between photograph and sketch. The minimum lines should

speak maximum in sketching format. It is an interplay between scale, proportion and light. The perspective

lines considering our eye level are also important. Every individual can pick up his or her own style of

sketching. But the important thing is to learn from the sketching is to express. Architects language is

sketching and expressing through graphics.

Purpose of the visit: Study of preparation, transportation and quality testing of Ready Mix Concrete

Reason for selection of this site:

The topic was studied to analyse and study of preparation, transportation and quality testing of Ready Mix

Concrete. The above mentioned project was suitable to decode the topic in terms of our proposed objectives.

The Godrej RMC plant is well known for production of Quality ready mix concrete and also it is certified plant

for different typed quality testing and quality products. Godrej RMC plant takes a systematic approach right

from inventory of raw material to transportation of final product. The main plant is situated at Hadapsar. Due

to busy schedule we got an opportunity to visit the allied plant on Sinhgad road. The processes and checking

schedules were systematic therefore, it was a good site to study and understand ready mix concrete topic

comprehensively. Even we received some good contacts for arranging this visit very systematically.

Summary of the inputs given before site visit (500-600 words)

The topic theory at introductory part was told to students at classrooms only. They were needed to correlate

and find out some alternative mechanisms in the project. The therotical part included topics like need of RMC

concrete, proportions, mixing, tranportations through transit trucks, environmental considerations in

manufacturing processes, batching, scheduling, testing, components involved like buckets, vonveyor belts,

mixer, grinders, advantages, limitations, cosing involved, market purchase rating analysis, strength of

concrete loads, and many more.

Summary of the visit: (500-1000 words)

We started with correlative theory and observatory input by the core faculty to initiate the site visit. Then the

field engineer explained us the whole project design by moving around right from entrance to exit. Also they

explained the stages of manufacturing, testing schedules, capacity of the plant, storages of new products and

raw material, site office design and arrangement. Then we segregated into two groups to learn and observe

functions and components. Each group was assisted with field engineer and core faculty members. Students

actually visited to every area of RMC plant and asked various queries to the engineer and faculty. Engineers

also explained the structural attributes of RMC to be achieved as per the norms and faculties supported the

data with on site sketches to the students to understand the mechanism. The duration for this site visit was

around 2 hours. At the last phase the project engineer Mr. Basudeo communicated with students and explained

them the functioning and suitable space and qualitative checks to be done in RMC manufacturing.

It was very insightful session for the students.

Name of the Place/Site village, city: Old Pune city

Name of the collaborating agency: SMEF’s Brick school of Architecture

Co-ordinated by: Ar. Ramiya Gopal, Ar. Vaibhavi Agarwal

Dates of visit: 30th March, 2020

Purpose of the visit: city walk arranged to study the evolution of architecture from the old city to the present

magarpatta township with a focus on contemporary built forms

Aim:

To establish a critical and comprehensive viewpoint about the contemporary trends/approaches in

architectural production in terms of design, practices, its perception, appreciation and critical discourses. To

develop the ability in students to position themselves in today’s time so as to be able to establish an argument

and testify the same.

Lecture Time division:

Total lecture time: 180 min. (once a week for each batch)

Basic Teaching Objectives:

• To position students to look at and read an urban environment, in order to identify clear, visible as well as not

so visible issues, which act on and influence the functioning as well as our experience of an urban

environment.

• The focus will be directed towards understanding relationship between existing built form and the urbanity

around it, and how both influence each other.

• These help students develop an understanding of how built form is not isolated but always in a close

relationship with people and activities around.

• All of this leads towards an understanding of contemporary architecture in the context of present day Pune,

which is not isolated practices and objects but a network of built forms, their functionality in relation to people,

the climate and their use over time.

Teaching Format:

Input: Presentation and discussions

FIELD TRIPS 2019-20

The Exercise:

• Started with the most basic question-What architecture meant to them

This exercise is aimed at guiding the studio in the right direction and to enable students to start discovering

answers for themselves

• Book review

This exercise is aimed at the study and understanding of a book which helps students to start generating

opinion

• A Critical Inquiry into Contemporary Built Practices

This exercise is aimed at the study and analysis of three different areas of Pune. It is a walk through three

different timelines to understand how architecture has changed over the years and the factors influencing the

same with a focus on contemporary built forms (buildings and their surroundings). The intent is to identify

issues/problems/concerns which are coming from the site, and which are an outcome of these built forms

acting on their surrounding environment. These issues can be environmental, economic, social, spatial,

experiential or political, but they should arise from the relationship between these built forms and their

surrounding life.

Eg. If a high-rise glass cladded building is causing the micro temperature around it to rise because of reflected

heat, then this is an environmental concern generating from the presence of this built form within its

surroundings.

OR

If street vendors and informal market around a newly developed gated community is removed, so as to

maintain an image of the gated community, then this is a social & economical concern generating from the

presence of this gated community within its surroundings.

OR

If a contemporary high rise in a dense neighborhood has inadequate parking provisions, thereby adding to the

already existing problem of parking around, then this is a traffic and parking issue substantiated by the

presence of the building in that context.

Thus, students have to identify issues of this nature, from their study and analysis. The validity of their inquiry

will be based on their argument, which has to be backed up by evidence. The students cannot just focus on the

relationship between built forms and their surroundings, but they can also base their inquiry on the forces

which have shaped these built forms (economically driven, politically motivated decisions or cultural trends

which have resulted in a particular type of design or construction or choice of location of these built forms).

Thus, the idea behind this exercise is to understand how contemporary built forms are an outcome of a

complex web of decision making, influences, different agencies, different intents and the relationship between

FIELD TRIPS 2019-20

the built forms and their surrounding urban life, therefore, they cannot be studied in isolation, merely for their

architectural quality, but they must be viewed within this larger framework.

Method:

- Students will be taken for a city walk starting from Pune city to Magarpatta Township

- They will be divided into group of 10 and asked to conduct a study of given three areas, which will be based

on the following perspectives:

• Visual coherence

• Experience (are the buildings dominating, welcoming, unwelcoming etc.)

• Accessibility (is it easily accessible, difficult to navigate around etc.)

• Form & material (does it suit the context, is it pleasing or hard to look at etc.)

• Effect on public realm around (spaces for interaction, informal spaces, social infrastructure such as bus stop,

public toilets etc.)

• Activities around (informal market, street vendors, street-side shops, walkers/joggers, meeting places etc.)

• Relationship with un-built (open spaces around, green patches, landscape, places of public interaction etc.)

• Pedestrian friendly or automobile friendly surroundings

• Relationship with context (respects the context, dominates the context, disrupts the context etc.)

• Perception (how users see/perceive these built forms, is there a sense of association etc.)

• Use and abuse (are the spaces inside/around used or misused or abused)

• Environment/Microclimate (shade and shadow, vegetation etc.)

This is not a checklist, but indicators. You can have your own perspective, but you will have to articulate it in

your study and analysis, although, the above list can serve as a good guide for you to conduct your study.

- After initial group study and analysis, students are expected to figure out their individual focus, on which,

they will be conducting an individual research further, which they will articulate in the form of an academic

paper.

- Individual inquiry can be based on a particular issue or you may interlink multiple issues, to demonstrate

your own critical take on the nature of the built form and its relationship to the surrounding.

- You may even develop a proposal for a design intervention, based on your analysis, which you will articulate

in your paper as a design brief.

Representation:

- Students can make use of photographs, Google earth images, sketches, diagrams, info graphics, text, collage

or any other form of visual representation.

- Presentations will be in the form of a PPT throughout.

- The format for individual papers will be shared at a later stage.

Areas for study :

Kasba Peth Area

Camp Area

Magarpatta City

Stage 01:

Observations: Students presented observations of their study of the three areas. Ideally, they were supposed to

closely follow the brief given to them and orient their study accordingly.

Stage 02:

FIELD TRIPS 2019-20

Abstract Submission: After choosing their area of focus, which is based on their group study, students

discussed them time and again at an individual level, and then wrote an abstract, which would give some kind

of orientation towards their area of interest and what their research aims.

Stage 03:

Review of research papers: Students were asked to read and review two research papers, which were related to

their own individual area of inquiry and speak about their understanding or give a short presentation for the

class.

Stage 04:

Submission of Drafts : Students submitted their drafts, which were reviewed and discussed with them for

improvements.

Stage 05:

Final presentation: Students presented their final papers with help of a presentation, which summed up their

paper.

Final Deliverables:

Paper + Presentation (PPT)

We have separately attached two sample student works:

One is the best (Aniket Tayade) for choice of topic, references made and attempt at articulating the argument.

The second is (Roshini Sethia), for the way she has articulated the argument in a simple but comprehensive

way.

Assessment Parameters:

Assessment was based on depth of inquiry, articulation of argument, backing with references and reading,

demonstration of evidence and finesse of language. This was in addition to overall attendance record and a

general regularity throughout the semester.

Observations:

This was a start or an orientation towards academic writing, which is based on on-ground research. It may

have been difficult for many students to understand the brief and the intent of the program, at large, but some

of them sailed through well. Also, since the students have Architectural Research as a subject next year (fourth

year), this program paved the way for them to take it ahead with a bit more understanding and maturity.

Name of the Place/Site village, city: Bhigwan, Baramati, Maharahtra

Name of the collaborating agency: BRICK

Co-ordinated by: Abhang K, Neha Ghugari, Aditya Mandgaokar, Amrut Deshmukh

Dates of visit: 13th June 2019

Purpose of the visit: Site study

Reason for selection of this site:

The ever increasing human population has put a lot of stress on natural resources. The most affected is land.

We are expanding our footprint on this planet at such an alarming rate, without realising how it affects our

cohabitant flora and fauna. It is no surprise that slowly but surely some species are becoming lesser in numbers

and also becoming extinct. The Short Exploration chosen this semester was a “Migratory Birds Observation

Centre”. Pune is lucky to have Bhigwan in its vicinity. It is renowned for the presence of migratory birds.

Located on the backwaters of the Ujjani dam it offers a good natural environment for these birds.

Summary of the inputs given before site visit

The responsibility of choosing the site was left to the students. Before the visit, guidelines were given on how

to choose the site. An orientation lecture was conducted before departure for the trip. An introduction was

given to the socio-geographic and climatic context of the region. Maps of the region were studied and

important landmarks were identified

Summary of the visit:

The trip was conducted in a single day as the place is about 2 hours drive from Pune. An extensive walkaround

was conducted to first familiarise the students with the area and the village in its vicinity.

Highlights (major learnings)

It was observed that there exists a tourist culture and infrastructure but largely in an unorganised manner.

If this is allowed to take its natural course then there will be a major damage to the environment. To bring

about ecological awareness amongst all, a facility should be proposed which can attract people from all

walks of life, be it a casual tourist, a layman or even an ornithologist. But every intervention has an impact.

FIELD TRIPS 2019-20

Nowhere more than at a location which is ecological so sensitive that any careless action can disturb the

nature’s delicate balance and adversely impact the flora and fauna. So it was important to implement the

follwing identified aspects strictly:

• Ecologically sensitive Architectural Design in proximity of a large water body

• Low impact construction

• Lightweight and semi-permanent structure

• Design from a controlled palette of building materials

The material pallette was also carefully proposed as below:

Wood, bamboo, tensile fabric or any other lightweight material.

No RCC , brick, CCU blocks to be allowed for superstructure

Name of the Place/Site village, city: Amboli and Sawantwadi, Maharahtra

Name of the collaborating agency: Settlement Study

Co-ordinated by: Abhang K, Neha Ghugari, Aditya Mandgaokar, Amrut Deshmukh

Dates of visit: 28th Nov – 3rd Dec 2019

Purpose of the visit: Settlement study

Reason for selection of this site:

To understand the typical coastal architecture of semi-rural Maharashtra. The Konkan area of Maharashtra

receives heavy rainfall in the monsoon season. The study this semester would help students understand the

implications of heavy rainfall and humid weather with respect to use of local materials. Like most coastal

areas of India, the Konkan area is also undergoing a change due to dwindling incomes from their traditional

occupations and a move towards domestic tourism. How the inhabitants balance these two diversified ways of

lifestyles and how it has an impact on their culture, traditions and architecture makes an interesting study.

Summary of the inputs given before site visit

An orientation workshop was conducted before departure for the trip.

For each Batch, 7 groups of 5 students each were made, with an assigned group leader and tasks. They were

asked to do a pre-trip study making best use of the library and reliable internet leads to prepare them

beforehand with knowledge about their respective destinations. For Sawantwadi, the area of study chosen was

a street comprising mostly of wooden toy shops, a traditional craft of the region. For Amboli, small hamlets

were chosen due to the absence of large populations in the region. The following aspects were to be covered:

Focus of study –

1. Physical and visual study of the chosen areas in Amboli/Sawantwadi

2. Study of general Architectural typology within the region and the stretch to be

documented.

3. Study of land-use and ownership patterns

4. Study of activity patterns in private and public spaces

5. Study of vehicular and pedestrian movement patterns

FIELD TRIPS 2019-20

6. Study of climate, with focus on sunlight/shading in inner courtyards and effect of rainfall on

construction techniques

7. Study of services and infrastructure

8. Socio-cultural impact assessment.

The study will comprise of following topics / sub heads

Photographic documentation

Sketches of the street façade and details

Generating basic measurement drawings – Plan of the entire stretch, individual plans of structures,

sections and elevations. - Landuse, ownership and activity patterns.

Summary of the visit:

It was understood that the Konkan area of India can be divided broadly into 3 regions based on their altitude –

namely areas next to the coast at sea level, areas in the plateau region and areas up on the hills. The intent of

the settlement study was to document, understand and study the chosen street upto one plot depth. The local

inhabitants were interviewed, family profile created and based on that data was collected and analyzed. It

helped students in understanding the constant change that a settlement undergoes and reasons for this change.

They also studied and documented the traditional coastal architecture which has to cater to a hot humid and

heavy rainfall climate.

Highlights (major learnings)

For the Amboli trip students understood why it is important to save and preserve nature. Amboli is one of the

prominent bio-diversity regions in the country. For Sawantwadi the study brought about an interesting

socio-economical aspect to students understanding. The natives are primarily into basic farming – coconuts,

betelnuts, fishing etc. But these sources of income for them was becoming difficult and on the other hand the

young generation preferred to go to the cities for earning. However, with the increase in tourism a new source

of income generation has come up. This has brought about a change to the local architecture which was

studied and documented by the students.
