Establishing New Benchmarks in sustainable residential developments – Saakaar Aquacity
by Saakaar Constructions Building Homes Building DreamsWith a widespread of
12 acres, Saakaar Aquacity is the epitome of a sustainable township with due
inclusion of luxury, economy, comfort, safety, and security. Located at Danapur
in Patna, this real estate project promotes sustainable habitats along with the
state of art in facilities and amenities. Not just a concrete jungle, Saakaar
Aquacity is more ‘a complete city’ with 21 towers, 1024 residential units, lush
green areas, sport complex, indoor games facilities, yoga & meditation
centres, gymnasium, jogging tracks, amphitheatre, recreational centre, spa,
cafeteria, ATMs, restaurants, party hall and much more. Saakaar Constructions-one of the top real
estate company of India, have established new benchmarks in sustainable
development by launching its dream project – The Saakaar Aquacity.
With 60% open area, Saakaar Aquacity has kept the FAR low
(approximately 2) that makes the city more spacious with fresh air to breathe
in. If you are new to the term FAR in real estate sector, FAR or Floor Area
Ratio is the ratio of a building’s total floor area (gross floor area) to the
size of the piece of land upon which it is built. With an emphasis on pedestrian
friendly green areas, the township includes all essential features for
healthier and rejuvenating experiences. Taking the inspiration from traditional
Indian style of architecture and blending it with the modern infrastructure
standards, the township has planned courtyards for an easier and convenient
transition of the residents – public to semi-private to private. Each
residential block is connected to the open areas and other facilities in a very
efficient way to let the residents access the city smoothly. A combination of
pergolas, jaalis, and shading elements have been provided in a simple and
sophisticated manner to create an appealing facade and to get the benefit of
passive solar cooling. Windows have been installed with sound, heat, and
fireproof glasses. The lush green landscapes, adequate tree plantation and vast
open space are the key highlights of this township project of Patna.
Imbibing the cues from the concept of green
building, the developers have emphasized on utilizing every available measure
to enhance sustainability. The residential units have been designed to maximize
cross ventilation and natural sunlight intake. This
will decrease the dependency on high voltage AC supply. For enabling the
natural micro-cooling and airflow, windows are enabled with required pergola
shading. The utmost concern has been given to the sourcing of Eco- friendly building materials viz. PPC
cement, steel, pre-cast hollow concrete blocks, ready mix concrete, bricks,
stones, sand, hardwood, aluminum, glass, etc. are used. Also, the materials
have been sourced locally to minimize the environmental impact because of
transportation.
Saakaar Aquacity is well equipped with a modern
Rain harvesting system to collect the rainwater in pre-built water tanks and to
utilize it later. Though the government made it a mandatory feature to include
in all new residential planning, many of the upcoming or the previous
residential real estate projects of Bihar lacks efficient rainwater harvesting
system, but not the Saakaar Aquacity. The runoff from the building terraces,
paved roads, and the open area are systematically channelized to the rain
harvesting structures designed for the peak rainfall intensity as per the
meteorological data. The parking lots and connecting roads are softly paved to
ensure the optimum absorption of rainwater in the soil. It prevents the city
from flooding in case of unpredicted heavy rainfall. A modern RO treatment
plant has been installed to ensure the clean and safe drinking water supply to
the residents. It also reduces the dependency on local bodies for drinking
water supply.
Solid Waste Management techniques have been planned to enable
separate garbage bins with respect to the nature of waste for proper waste
handling and on-site treatment before the disposal. Skilled and experienced
waste management staff has been recruited for responsible waste handling and
disposal. To reduce the carbon footprint, special provisions
are being taken in the construction phase. Adopting the zero waste policy,
necessary arrangements have been done during the pre and post-construction
phases. The provision of the use of solar energy for generating hot water and
electricity has been kept. Also, Saakaar Aquacity has its own sewage treatment
plant to recycle the used water. The treated water is reused for various needs
viz. Bathroom supply, cleaning, etc. Taking a step ahead, for intracity
transition electric vehicles are being used which reduced air pollution.
Amalgamating the traditional architectural
features with modern-day infrastructure development, Saakaar Constructions have
established new benchmarks in sustainable residential projects by launching
Saakaar Aquacity. At Saakaar Aquacity, sustainability is not just an artificial
add on to enhance the credibility and value of the project, but an inbuilt and
integrated feature in the design and concept.
