Tsunami Relief Housing Project – Tata Relief Committee

TCE provided voluntary Design, Project Management and Construction Supervision services for the Tsunami Relief Housing Project undertaken by the Tata Relief Committee. The plot area is around 55651.00 sq m.

A rectangle plan was selected for the individual houses, keeping in view of functional efficiency.

A symmetrical building about both axes with a compact plan has been chosen for more stability against wind / cyclone related damages. Also cluster arrangement has been adopted instead of row type of building for the above reason. There are total 26 clusters. The orientation of blocks made such a way that shorter span length of the wall faces the sea.
