It has a history of isolation and from a point of view of culture itis on area undergoing rapid change after years or even decades of continuity. This would be an opportune stage fo conduct a comprehensive and integrated study of the tangible and intanaible cultural resources of the region before itis transformed by forces of rapid and inexorable change due fo communication, globalization and forces of development action that is not informed by the local resources and aspirations. We believe that design and design related knowledge, processes and scholarshio can be used to first study these tangible and intangible cultural resources in an integrated and muffi-cisciolinary manner so that they may form the base for any future development action including the articulation of design opportunities at many levels of political, economic and social action.

Apart from the pace, the diversity of the cities and towns is increasing with the addition of large scale private developments. Direct Understanding of local govemance, the management systems, the best practices, the problem areas by actually visiting the cities, meeting the various city managers and executives is one of the best ways of learning the processes, fools and mechanisms. This course is designed to enable the participants to learn about city management practices being adopted in three distinct urban settlements under separate administrative set up. They are Pune - a metropolitan cify with a traditional core (typical of many indian cities), Gandhinagar - a post independence planned city and Lavasa-a private enterprise. Practises related to city administration, water and sanitation, solid waste management and transport would be the focus.

ROOTEDNESS IN CULTURE Vidya Dengle Visual-experiential discipline of architecture often is dominated-as it perhaps must be- by the eye sensation. However the totality of experience of space Is inadequate if it does not take into its fold the other sensory perceptions. Sound for instance has so many connotations in every culture and its musical manifestation varies creating a firm tradition imbibing philosophical queries as well as its own aesthetic concems. Sculpture and painting too have iconographic as well as formal associations which are particular to every culture and one needs to make a cross cultural effort fo comprehend their meaning.

They say that if research problem is ightly formulated, half the research is done. In such a case what remains is only filing gaps by relevant data. Most of our research methods training program include training of tools. Tools can be leamt later on, if your logic is sound. Hence, correct identification of research problem, better formulation with tight type of theoretical orientation and a good -televant research design and a good research proposal based on these aspects would facilfate research activity. fo research problem is wrongly identified, enti cirection of research is ost.

Their contribution fo the income of a city on an average is 64%. This contribution to the growth is undercounted and invisible. Their access fo the infrastructure and other public facitties is negligible, minimal at best. The women use theirhhomes as their workplace and storehouse. Better living habitats means better economic productivity for these women. However these households that constitute thirty percent of the population have no voice in the development of the cily.

While, Historically, construction materials were restricted due to availabilty. recent advances in research have dramatically changed boih the nature of construction materials as well as their manufacturing processes. Firsthand knowledge of the manufacturing process is crucial to the designer, the engineer, the projeci manager and all other related professionals. It enables them fo take informed decisions. This course Is dlesigned fo bring to the students this awareness through not only secondary research, but firsthand experience by visits fo selected materials manufacturing centres, product presentations and visits to construction projects. The stuclents will be able to collate the information, record observations, and visual documentations, engage in alscussions with persons in charge of the manufacturing plants and. e valuable technical details of the products, All stages of material manufacturing, starting from the collection and procurement of raw materials fo all the manufacturing processes fo the final product will be studied for a given list of materials that inclucies glass and other ceramics, wood, materials used for walling, and advances in flooring, acoustics and services will also be discussed.

One of the pollutants monitored is Particulate Matter (PM). Constituting small particles that reach into the human body through respiration, the size of these particles is directly linked fo their potential for causing health problems. Small particles less than 10 micrometers (PM10) in diameter pose the greatest problems, because they can get deep into a human being’s lungs, and some may even get into the bloodstream. Exposure to such particles can affect both lungs and heart. Small particles of concem include “inhalable coarse particles" [such as those found near roadways and dusty industries), which are larger than 2.5 micrometers and smaller than 10 micrometers in diameter; and ‘fine particles" (such as those found in smoke and haze}, which are 2.5 micrometers in diameter (PM2.5) and smaller. Students will monitor particulate matier at different places of Ahmedabad. Through the monitoring, students can identify the places, where the concentration of PM is more than the desired limit. Students also give measures fo reduce the PM concentration. The out comings of the winter school are useful fo the various state level and central level authority. Through this course, students leam how to monitor ambient air quality.eae eae oe Fees: 20,000/- + nominal expense for site visits around Ahmedabad (All Non-CEPT participants will pay De ee eee rarer) Ee mee ec awed eR ete) Announced by: Faculty of Technology Schedule: 9:00 - 13:30 (5 hours daily) Extra time on days of site visits - upto 17:00 No. of students: 30 Prerequisites: None/ Students to bring laptops to class.

EMBODIED ENERGY A tool for sustainability Dipan Shah Nirmit Shah The word ‘sustainability’ is rampant nowadays. It is believed to be the need of the hour in all waiks of fe. The construction sector is particularly bombarded with this ‘requirement’. But how is sustainability measured? Google this and you wil find ample results. One of the resulls may include the term ‘Embodied Energy’. The term has not gained much popularity due to its complexity, but a comprehensive study reveals that embodied energy can be used as a critical measure to judge sustainability of any construction material. It contributes to the ‘greenness’ of any material 5 well as of the entire builf form. This course gives the students an introduction to the concept of embodied energy, discusses its importance, limitations and explains the need for anew database of embodied energy. The course will follow a method of clarifying theoretical premises through lectures and teach calculations of embodied energy through case studies. It will equip students with methods of calculations that they will be able to use in their future work.eae aod ora Fees: Rupees 8,000/- (All Non-CEPT participants will pay additional service tax 12.36%) ee ee eed Duration: 2 weeks (Mon - Fri) en ee peels Re oe eC R ERC) No. of students: 0 eee od freee oe eg ee CL Urs UES Ze Student Deliverables: Report SEZ PLANNING A MANAGEMENT Jyoti Trivedi Kailash Bahuguna sting with the first EPZ (Export Processing Zone) of Asia set up in Kandla in 1965 a large number of SEZs (Special Economic Zones) are being set up in the country.
