Introduction Emphasis to learn about the elements and the
principles of Basic Design and 3D compositions. Excer-
cise in 2-dimensional design and 3-dimensional design
were appropriate tools for subsequent Architecture
Design and theory. Attempt to realize the utility of
pencil as a convenients to appreciate the role of colors to
develop control of brush for poster color, water colors
and ink. To develop pencil colors presentation tech-
niques.

In the second semester I am concentrating on manuallu drafting and building
construction details like doors & window along with architectural drawings. In
subject Building Technology I have made these details on paper and in the subject of
model Making i have made the working model of the same. i have also made model
of the king-post and queen post trusses. Because of all these my manually drafting is
as good as that of computer. I have also worked out on the joinery details of wall.
Introduction After 2-D and 3-d
Composition on paper. I have
made 3-D models from
di�erent materials. In the
drawing and painting I have
made sketches of monumental
buildings, etc.

In the design studio, Design of Cafetria was given to us as our �rst design
project. I was concentrating more on circulation, form and space. I was trying to make
this project simple so i can work on the public circulation ans site development. The
following are the requirement given to us: Plot Area 1000 sq ft. Reception Area,
kitchen, Dinning spcae, Store-1, store-2, Open Garden, Children Play area, parking
Space. Main Entrance, Rest Room & Wash Room.

The Doctor’s Residence was introduced as a design problem to us in the third semester, the site given was a hypothetical site measur-
ing �fty �ve meters by thirty �ve meters, with only one approach from a ten meter wide road. The site was rectangular one and was divided in
two zones with house occupying the prominent position while the doctor’s clinic on the other side of the site with the intensive green area has
been left along the house. The twenty �ve meter long plan is totally symmetrical plan with the axis from centre of entrance. The residence was
divided in levels with the central staircase acting as the tying member between the �oor. The building was conceptualized as a single unit
using the maximum height to ful�ll the program requirements. From the exterior, the house rises as series of volumes.

Housing
‘Housing’ means the place where all class of people can have there dwell-
ing place. In these we had to design Duplex, Row house and Apartment. And all
other requirements which can ful�ll all the bene�ts of the housing to an ordinary
man.
In the duplex the requirement was 3-bed room kitchen with the family
sitting. I �rst started thinking of the cluster and the allotted the area of each duplex
which is 15 by 15 sq. mts. After that I started designing and took my staircase at 75
degree along with that my balcony also goes with the same axis. In these way I was
able to design my duplex and its cluster details.I have designed the row house in
the same way as that of the duplex. The requirement of the row house was 2-bed
room kitchen with the family sitting.
I have divided the area about 10 by 10 sq. mts. The cluster design is
designed in such a way that at the centre of the cluster the play area for the
children is formed.
The parking is given far away from the play area so that it
does not disturb the play area.

Program Analysis3-D Analysis
In Design-II we had 4
di�erent face of work process. �rst
was an presedent, second Facade
analysis, third was Shoe box
making and lastly but not the least
fourth was desiging a shoe head-
quarter in New York. We were
supposed to design a headquarter
for particular designer shoes. Doing
an survey on site analysis which
gave us a breif idea of how the
location and locallity looked like.
After that phase I started divinging
program in to group and according
to its private and publice use.
Program analysis lead me to a
simple way of massing the 3-D of
the building which eviencually
gave its own facade and section .
This gave me a brief idea of divid-
ing program and massing to a great
shoe headquarter.

The project is design and documentation of a
proposed Midwest Raptor Center to be located in the Lake
Calumet Environmental corridor south of Chicago. While the
center addresses a speci�c client and their concerns, the
extension of the bene�ts possible to the adjacent communi-
ties, and the furtherance of the environmental preservation
mandate, will be components of the studio goals. The Lake
Calumet region was the former center of the steel industry in
Chicago, and the project emphasize on steel construction
and fabrication in its structural system, and by student
choice, in its expressive qualities.
The Raptor Centers hall provide consider able public
space where di�erent types of media are on display for the
visitors and where the access to exhibits ,pen and study are
as has been given priority. Due importance has been given
to circulation from one program to another taking advan-
tage of the pristine site, which o�ers a plethora of views and
indigenous vegetation.

A sustainable multi-use high-rise building is a response to
the rapid development of modern society which is related to economics,
industry, technology, human behavior and urban policy. The highcost of
land, the need of large areas of rentable spaces and shared functions have
resulted in the development of modern multi-use high rise buildings. It is a
logical solution, especially in highly costcentrated central areas of cities.
A multi-use high-rise building is a complex building type that
requires di�erent functions to be incorporated into a single building. Many
multi-use high-rise buildings o�er two functions, commercial and o�ce,
o�ce and condominium, or even hotel and condominium. This thesis
focuses on a multi-use high-rise that consists of o�ce, hotel,condominium
and observatory.
The purpose of this study is to identify all the aspects and design
requirements of each building type and provide a solutionthat incorporates
each function into a single multi-use high-rise building e�ciently and
e�ectively. Special focus has also been made in the development of the
elevator core that satis�es the separation of its multiple functions by sepa-
rate vertical transportation systems and lobbies.The structural system of the
proposed mixed-use high rise is composed of a mega core with eight mega
columns that are connected at mechanical �oors via steel outriggers. This
system o�er both wind loads resistance and all gravity loads.In this study,
various factors that a�ect the development of multi-use high-rise building
are discussed: utilization of space; development of an e�cient structural
system;vertical transportation system; sustainability; and successful connec-
tions with the existing infrastructure.
INTRODUCTION
Due to the increasing pressure on urban space in the 21st Centu-
ry,tall buildings are being developed as a solution to meet the new urban life
style. The modern tall building has spread to major urban centers through-
out the world. Today, these buildings have become a necessary element of
the city.
A tall building is not de�ned by its total height or number of �oors.
An important criterion in the design is the in�uence of aspect ratio to its
height. It is a building type that has to consider how planning, design and
construction is a�ected by its height. Over the years, architects and engi-
neers have collaborated and created new forms and systems that must be
integrated to accommodate user needs. Today the successful integration
between form and structure is the most important point when designing a
tall building.
This thesis project will facilitate the reader with an over-
view of multi-use tall building design which responds to a simple
form, along with an e�cient structural system and energy savings
strategy.
SUMMARY
After this brief description of the elements to consider for
high-rise building, it is important to coordinate all components at
an early stage of the design process. The core is a major element
that needs to be designed to achieve a high architectural and
structural e�ciency. The �oor to �oor height and the lease span
are dictated by the function. The mechanical requirement varies
from function to function. The number of elevators and exit stairs
is based on the building code. The structural requirements are yet
another important aspect that needs to be overlaid over all
architectural and mechanical requirements to achieve the desired
structural strength without compromising either its structural
stability or the usability of the upper �oors of the building.
Therefore, it is obvious that designing a high-rise requires
much coordination and the integration of di�erent disciplines.
These disciplines complement each other. If one of them fails, the
entire building is a�ected.This modest work is an attempt to
respond to all these goals. The design came through a functional
approach, proposing an e�cient structural system with e�ective
�oor planning.
THE SITE
The site of the proposed project is located in Illinois
Center, in downtown Chicago. This area inherited its name from
Illinois Central Railroad that played a key role in Chicago’s growth
and development to become a major metropolis. Illinois Center
(IC) is a very unique site, both in its location and complexity. It is
considered one of the �rst projects to promote the concept of a
city within a city. IC is developed in a number of levels. The lower
and intermediate levels are mainly attributed to servicing and
loading.The majority of the buildings at Illinois Center are inter-
connected by a Concourse Level,where shops and services are
provided without interruption.

The Illinois Center is considered to be the largest multi-use
development site in the US and is zoned as Residential-Business
planned Development No.70. This area gets its name from the
Illinois Central Railroad that played a big role on growth of Chicago
to become a metropolis. in the middle of 19th century, Illinois
center was originally part of Lake Michigan. The Fedral government
gave the land to the Illinois Central Railroad to provide
transportation route from Great Lake to the portNew Orleans.
Following The Great Chicago Fire in 1871, City fathers designated
the exixting trestle and shore line as a depository for �re debris.
This land�ll area was transformed into a port for receiving
agriculture and mineral products of the upper Midwest for
shipment down to New Orleans and on to foreign market. The north
Portion of that land�ll area was an 83 acre parcel that became the
Illinois Central’s major freight yard and terminals, the land that
eventually became Illinois center. in the early 1900’s producers of
the upper Midwest found other ways of transportation with national
highways syatem. By 1920, lake steamer tra�c standard declined
and operation of port were halted.
In the late 1950’s all uses of the property were teminated and
the Owner of the land started to lokk for the other uses. The Railroad
brought in partners to develop the city. The empahasis of the develop-
ment was to be o�ce building starting from west of the site towards
the east. Few residential buildings were constructed at the east of the
site.

Thesis Statement:
Sustainable buildings have the ability to strike a balance between environmental, economic and social issues at all stages of design, construction, operation and change of use/end
of life. My thesis is to design a high rise building in an urban setting that provides solutions for adapting bioclimatic and sustainable strategies to high-rise construction, to produce a climate
responsive building around a selected site with the three main elements of nature wind, water and landscape.
A tall building with passive and active sustainable strategies requires less energy, achieved through design responses to the climate of the place and through optimizing the use of
the locality’s ambient energies and enhances the quality of life and comfort for its occupant. The bioclimatic strategies applied to high-rise buildings can minimize many of the problems
associated with the high-rise buildings; being cost e�ective with reduced energy consumption in comparison to the conventional high-rise structures that we know today. The cost of vertical
transportation and the structural complexity can be o�set by better utilization of land in densely populated urban areas.
A purist’s de�nition of a sustainable high-rise building is one with zero-net-energy use. I would like to achieve this in the challenging climate of Chicago, Illinois.
