STRUCTURE GRID
The structure grid was divided into three main bodies of the building. Divided into polygons, were separated to determine the main body, sub-bodies. Egress of stairs/elevators were placed in the middle with the Mechanical to give better circulation throughout the building. Also one more egress stairs is planned to be placed where it is opposing to the entrance and where the users can be evacuating from emergency.

Facade
Double skin (double plane)
This facade system has recently been receiving much attention, considering that it is one of the best method for saving energy in a building. The DSF is good for shading the building from the sun, because of their high glazing fractions. So instead of the sun absorbing into the building it is reflected out. Another good thing about it is that it has a buffer zone between the two skins and that serves for not only thermal performance, but also to increase air circulation.
Concrete : This facade is good for reflecting sound of the building.since concrete is thick and not very permeable it won’t absorb too much sound rather it will bounce it back off into the environment. This facade will also block out a lot of the sun light from entering into the building
