Technopark, Thiruvananthapuram
havani, the sixth industrial module has a total built-up area of 4,95,000 Sq.ft. ECC, the Construction Division of Larsen & Toubro Limited, a pioneer in building IT Parks all over the country gave a concrete shape to Bhavani, the latest and the most modern edifice in the campus. ECC built this edifice in a record time of 16.5 months, while it took almost 30 months for similar buildings in the same campus.
Consisting of a basement and six storeys, Bhavani is supported on 48 hollow columns of size 1400x1400 mm, having a shell thickness of 200mm. An awe inspiring atrium in the centre of the building provides excellent natural
lighting. A combination of special roofing with colour coated metal sheets in the shape of Mangalore tiles, along with a modern space frame structure fitted with polycarbonate sheeting over atrium enhances the aesthetics of the building.
The front side porch is an RCC structure supported on four ‘+’ shaped columns, placed 125 mm centre to centre in square. Porch slab has been architecturally designed like a pyramid. Slabs on all four sides are self-supported with each other by its center of gravity.
The perforated drop slab of 1350mm, hanging from each floor slab including the entrance porch with
sloped roof and Mangalore tiles gives the structure its unique style of Kerala architecture.
The terrace floor gable end gutter is also built as an RCC structure in curved shape to match with its roofing profile. Rain water flowing down the polycarbonate sheet roofing as well as on the open terrace are collected in this gutter and conveyed to the storm water drain.
ECC employed the latest construction plant and machinery like the batching plant and concrete pumps to complete the entire RCC works. L&T-Doka formwork system components were used for achieving high quality concrete surface finishes.
Technopark, the electronic technopolis of the government of
Kerala is the centrepiece of the state’s venture into Information
Technology. Situated on the outskirts of Thiruvananthapuram
