INTRODUCTION
NECESSITY:-
The requirement of the project is for the separate girls hostel for the ----(college name
)----------------, because of the facility of the hostel to the girls is provide on the institution
building, there is not the circumstances for hostel life, so the requirement of separate
hostel is compulsory. So we design the project under the guidance of our respected
staff member of CIVIL ENGG. DEPARTMENT.

SPECIFICATION
SITE SLECTION
1. LEVEL AT THE SITE: - The level at the site must be higher than that of its surrounding
so as to provide good drainage.
2. CLIMATE CONDITION: - The intensity of the rainfall and sub soil water level should be
low as to avoid dampness in the building.
3. SUB-SOIL CONDITION: - A hard strata should be available at a reasonable depth so as
to construct the foundation of the building safely and economically.
4. AVAILABILITIES OF MODERN AMENITIES: - The site must be within municipal limits
so that modern amenities like water supply, electricity, drainage, road etc. can be made
available inner future if there is no provision at present.
5. AVAILABILITIES OF OTHER FACILITIES : - The site should provide as easy access
from the nearest road and after sufficient light and air, these should be good and cheap
transport facilities available near the site, it is always better if public services like fire
brigade, police station etc.
6. SURROUNDINGS:-
The situation and surrounding of the site must as to suit the purpose for which the
building it to be constructed.
SPECIFICATIONS:-
BUILDING:-
Any structure constructed of what so ever material and used for residential, business
education or other purposes is called building.
Types of the building :-
1. Based on occupancy
2. Based on type of construction

BASED ON OCCUPANCY
Residential buildings: - The building in which sleeping accommodation is provided for
normal residential purposes are called residential buildings.
Educational / institutional buildings: - The building used for school, college or day care
purposes are called education / institutional building.
Assembly Buildings : - The buildings which are constructed for the purposes to
gathering of the people for their respective purposes i.e. social, religious, civil, political is
called assembly buildings.
Business Buildings: - The buildings used for transaction of business, for the keeping of
accounts and records and other similar purposes called business buildings.
Mercantile Buildings: - The buildings used for display of merchandise, either wholesale
or retail are called Mercantile Buildings.
Industrial buildings: - The buildings in which products or materials of all kinds and
properties are fabricated, assembled or processed are called industrial buildings.
Storage buildings: - The buildings used primary for the storage, handling or shattering of
goods and wares or merchandise, vehicles and animals are called storage buildings.
Hazardous buildings: -The buildings used for storage, handling manufacturing or
processing of highly combustible or explosive material are called Hazardous buildings.
CLASSIFICATION BASED ON TYPE OF CONSTRUCTION
Building with type 1 construction: - In these building the design and material used const.
are such that all structural components have about 4 hours fire resistance.
Buildings with type 2 construction: - In these building the design any type of material
used in their construction are such that all structural components have 3 hours fire
resistance.
Buildings with type 3 construction: - In these building the design and types of the

PARTS OF A BUILDING
A building can be divided into two parts: -
1. Sub structure
2. Super structure
1. Sub structure: - The part of a building constructed beneath the ground level is known as
Sub structure.
2. Super structure: - The part of the building constructed above ground level is known as
super structure. It is second part of a building. All the activities of the building
construction take place after the making of sub-structure. Flooring, wall roofing are the
example of super structure of a building.
COMPONENTS OF A BUILDING
1. FOUNDATION: - It is the lowest part of a structure below the ground level which is
direct contact with ground and transmitted all the dead, live and other loads to the soil
on which the structure rests.
2. PLINTH: - The portion of a building and the top of the floor immediately above the
ground is known as plinth. The level of the surrounding ground is known as formation
level of the ground floor of the building is known as plinth level.
3. WALLS: - Walls are provided to enclose or divide the floor space n desired pattern in
addition wall provided privacy security and give protection against sun, rain, cold and
other undesired effect of the weather.
4. COLUMN: - A column may be defined as an isolated load bearing member, the width of
which is neither less than its thickness. It carries the axially compressive load.
5. FLOORS: - Floors are flat supporting elements of a building. They divided a building
into different levels. There by creating more accommodation on a given plot of land. The
basic purpose of a floor is to provide a firm and other items like stores, furniture,
equipment etc.
6 | P a g e
6. DOORS, WINDOWS AND VENTILATORS: - A door may be defined as a barrier
secured in an opening left in a wall to provide usual means of access to a building, room
or passage. Windows and ventilators are provided for sun light, fresh air and ventilation
purposes.
7. ROOF: - It is the uppermost component of a building and its function is to cover the
space below it of a room and protect it from rain, snow, sun, wind etc.
8. BUILDING FINISHES: - A building is considered incomplete till such time the surface of
its components is given appropriate treatment.
Building finishes include items like plastering, painting, pointing, white / colour washing,
varnishes and distempering etc.

DETAILED SPECIFICATION
The detailed specification is a detailed description and expresses the requirements. The
detailed specification of an item of work specifies the quality and quantities of materials
the proportion of mortar. Workmanship. The method of preparation of work and
excavation and the method of measurement the detailed specification of different items
of work are prepared separately and describe what the works should be and how they
shall be executed. Detailed specifications are written to express the requirement clearly
in a consince from avoiding repetition and ambiguity the detailed specification are
arranged as per order as the work is carried out the detailed specification of prepared
properly are very helpful for the execution of work. The detailed specification form an
important part of contract document.
Every engg. Department prepared, the detailed specifications on various items of work
and get them printed in order book from under the name. Detailed specification when
the work or a structure or project is taken up instead of waiting detailed specification
every time the printed detailed specifications are referred. The detailed specifications of
various item of work are as follows: -

FINDS: -Any treasure and valuables or materials founds during the excavation shall be
property of Govt.
WATER IN FOUNDATION : -Water if any accumulated in the trenches, should be bailed
or pumped out without any extra payment and necessary precautions shall be taken to
prevent surface water enter the trench.
TRENCH FILLING : - After the conc. Has been laid, masonry has been constructed the
remaining portion of the trenches shall be filled up with earth in layers of 15cm and
watered and well rammed. The earth filling shall be free from rubbish and refuse mater.
All clouds shall be broken before filling surplus earth not required shall be removed and
disposed and site shall be leveled and dressed.
10 | P a g e

for a period of at least three hours.
LAYING: - Before laying the concrete, the shuttering shall be clean free from dust and
other foreign matters. The concrete shall be deposited ( not dropped) in its final
position. If case of columns and usually it is desirable to place concrete in full height if
practical so as to avoid construction joints but the progress of concreting in the vertical
direction shall be restricted to one meter per hour. Care should be taken that the time
between mixing and placing of concrete shall not exceed 20 minutes so that the initial
