    The project was a 14,681 sqm hostel block for Rajiv Gandhi National Aviation University located in Uttar Pradesh that achieved a 3 Star GRIHA rating. It reduced energy consumption by 30.9% through strategies like efficient fixtures, daylighting, and a 30 kWp solar PV system. Water use was cut by over 50% through low-flow fixtures and efficient irrigation. Sustainable materials like Kota stone, tiles, and calcium silicate were used and over 500 cu.m of topsoil was preserved on site.

    PROJECT NAME: RAJIV GANDHI NATIONAL AVIATION UNIVERSITY HOSTEL BLOCK

    Location : Fursatganj, Uttar Pradesh


    Site Area : 7,422.9 m2
    Built-up Area : 14,681 m2
    Typology : Residential
    Energy Consumption Reduction : 30.9% reduction in Energy Consumption compared to GRIHA
    benchmark
    EPI : 69.1 kWh/ m2/year
    GRIHA Provisional Rating : 3 Star Rating (Version: 3.1)
    Year of Completion : 2021

    The following strategies were adopted to reduce building impact on the natural environment:
    Þ Sustainable Site Planning:
    • Air pollution control measures such as site barricading, covering of fine construction materials and other
    appropriate measures were strictly adhered to during construction.
    • 583.9 cu.m top soil was preserved at site and reused for landscaping.
    • 28 trees were sacrificed for development. 113 new trees were planted on site.

    Þ Water Management:
    • Reduction of 52.44% from the GRIHA base case has been demonstrated in the building water demand by
    installing efficient low-flow fixtures.
    • Reduction of 57.25% from the GRIHA base case has been demonstrated in the landscape water demand
    efficient irrigation systems.
    • Gunny bags were used for curing of columns.

    Þ Energy Optimization and Occupant Comfort:


    • For achieving visual comfort:
    » 81% of the regularly occupied spaces are day-lit and meet the daylight factor as prescribed by NBC 2005.
    » Automatic timer based control has been provided for 100% of the outdoor lighting system.

    • For achieving thermal comfort:


    » EPI reduction of 30.9% from the GRIHA base case has been demonstrated through the integration of high
    performance systems.

    Þ Renewable-energy-based hot water system:


    • Solar photovoltaic system of capacity 30 kWp has been installed.

    Þ Sustainable Building Materials:


    • Kota stone, vitrified tiles, ceramic tiles and granite have been used as flooring materials.
    • Calcium silicate has used as false ceiling materials.

    Þ Waste Management:
    • Multi-colored bins have been provided for segregation of dry & wet waste.
    • Central waste collection area has been provided for storage of segregated waste on site.
    • Fluidized aerobic bio reactor (FAB) type STP of 200 kLd capacity has been installed.
