VENTILATION –
Labs where chemicals are used must have artificial air supply
and extraction. Air changes per hour:
chem. Labs – 8
biology labs – 4
physics labs – 3 to 4 (in extraction area)
ELECTRIACAL SERVICESWhere a high number of connections and special supplies of
electricity are required, a separate transformer in the building is
essential. Electrical plant must be in a fireproof enclosure
without any other cables running through it







Purpose: information centre for classwork, further education and leisure
and may be used by pupils, teachers and non-school users.
Library includes a conventional school library for pupils and teachers with
books and magazines, lending facilities, reading and workplaces.




AN IDEAL LIBRARY

Standard space requirement overall: 0.35 to 0.55 sq m per
pupil.
Book issues and return, 5 sq m per workplace and catalogue
space of 20 to 40 sq m.
Information: librarian 10 to 20 sq m.



SEATING CAPACITYIn general the maximum capacity of an auditorium depends on the format
selected. Other factors include levels, sightlines, circulation and seating
density as well as size and shape of platform/stage.
SIZE OF AUDITORIUMAn area of atleast 0.5 sq m per spectator is to be used for sitting spectators.
This number is derived from a seat width x row spacing of atleast 0.45 sq m
per seat , plus an additional minimum of 0.5m x 0.9m i.e. approximately 0.05
sq m per seat.
LENGTH OF ROWSA maximum of 16 seats per aisle . 25 seats per aisle is permissible if one side
exit door of 1 m width is provided per 3-4 rows.
EXITS, ESCAPE ROUTES1m wide per 150 people (minimum width 0.8m)




VOLUME OF ROOMThis is obtained on the basis of acoustic requirements as follows:
Playhouses approx. 4-5 cu m
Spectator, opera approx 6-8 cu m
STAGE FORMSThere are three stage forms: full stage, small stage and set areas.
Full stage: Stage area > 100 sq m
Stage ceiling > 1m above top of proscenium arch
An essential feature of a full stage is an iron safety curtain which separates the
stage from the auditorium in the event of an emergency.
Small Stage: Area no more than 100 sq m
No stage extension (secondary stages)
Stage ceiling not more than 1m above top of proscenium
Small stages do not require an iron safety curtain.
Set areas: Raised acting areas in rooms without ceiling projection.



Play makes a fundamental contribution to the development of a child’s personality. It is
mainly through play that small children adapt to their environment. Play areas must be
varied, changing and changeable. They must meet children’s needs. Play is a social
experience, through it children learn to understand the consequences of their
behaviour.
REQUIREMENTS OF PLAY AREAS:
Traffic Safety
No Pollution
Adequate Sunshine
Ground Water Level not too high
