of bills or measurement of the constructed buildings for the payment to contractors etc. It also had got further

emphasis with the increasing realization of Architectural conservation being introduced at famous Architectural

Institute of India and abroad.

As desired in special emphasis of the department of Architecture, Zakir Husain College of Engineering and

Technology, problem shall be related to first studies of local Architectural style by concentrating on heritage buildings and important Architectural works and then its scope shall be extended to regional studies such as

Agra and Delhi having many important buildings of Ancient/Moghul/Modern era as well as slave dynasty and

Path an dynasties at Delhi. Problem related to other buildings of Indian Architecture such as located at

Lucknow/Awadh Architecture may also be introduced conveniently to have a valuable data stock related to
