Today, we are going to learn about what a Sanction Plan includes. Does anyone know what is meant by a 'Sanction Plan'?
Is it the approval document for building a structure?
Exactly! A Sanction Plan contains specific drawings and details confirming construction compliance. It usually has a location map and key plan. Can anyone tell me why these elements might be important?
They can help locate the building and its layout in relation to other structures.
Correct! They provide essential context to prevent errors in construction. Additionally, the plan includes specifics like the owner's information and details of the sanctioning authority. Remember the acronym 'LKADS': Location, Key plan, Approval details, Designated authority, and Specifications. This will help you remember the components.
What about the area specifications? What do they include?
Great question! They summarize the plot area, built-up area, plinth area, and Floor Area Ratio (FAR). These figures ensure that the construction adheres to zoning laws. Let's remember 'ABP FAR'—Area, Built, Plinth, Floor Area Ratio.
That's helpful! Can we have examples of these areas?
Sure, think of 'plot area' as the total land size you have, while 'built area' is just what you've constructed on it. Now, summarizing today's key points: A Sanction Plan includes essential maps, owner and approval details, and area specifications. Make sure to remember 'LKADS' and 'ABP FAR'!
Next, let’s look at the mandatory instructions outlined in the section. Who can share a few?
I remember something about parking areas!
Exactly! One instruction is that basement and ground floors reserved for parking cannot be converted for other uses. This is important for safety and compliance. Can anyone think of why this matters?
If those areas are not used for parking, it could cause issues like traffic jams or safety hazards!
Yes! Another mandatory instruction is regarding the provision of utilities, such as necessary ducts. What might happen if these are not included?
It could lead to messy and unprofessional installations later on!
Great insight! To remember the comprehensive instructions, think of 'D-DHR'- Ducts, Designated wrong usage, Harvesting systems, and Rainwater. Lastly, the license must be displayed prominently. Why do you think that’s significant?
It shows compliance with regulations and keeps everyone informed.
That’s right! To summarize, the instructions ensure the building serves its purpose, meets legal standards, and contributes positively to its environment. Always keep 'D-DHR' in mind!
Lastly, we need to discuss Rainwater Harvesting Structures and child labor laws. What do you know about Rainwater Harvesting?
It's about collecting rainwater to use for other purposes, right?
Precisely! It’s crucial for sustainability, and the law mandates their installation and proper maintenance. Does anyone recall the specific requirement mentioned?
Something about a minimum storage capacity?
Correct! It's vital to ensure it's utilized effectively. Now regarding child labor, why do you think strict prohibitions exist in construction?
It's to protect children from dangerous working conditions, and they should be in school instead!
Absolutely! Child labor is not only immoral but also illegal. To wrap up: Rainwater harvesting helps conserve resources, and child labor laws are essential for protecting the youth. Remembering 'RCH'—Rainwater, Children, and Harvesting—can help recall these points.
Read a summary of the section's main ideas. Choose from Basic, Medium, or Detailed.
The section elaborates on the components defining a Sanction Plan, mandatory instructions for construction, and highlights the importance of displaying licenses and approved plans in a visible location for compliance and public awareness.
The section titled 'Display of Licences and Approved Plans' focuses on the regulatory framework needed in building planning and construction. It introduces the concept of a 'Sanction Plan', which comprises essential drawings and details required for construction approval. These include:
1. Location Map – A reference for situational context.
2. Key Plan – Providing clear direction to the building site.
3. Essential Details – Listing ward numbers, corporation divisions, contact details of the In-charge Engineer, owner's name, and address.
4. Sanctioning Authority – Must include the authority’s info with a designated space for official seals and approvals.
5. Area Specifications – Details regarding the plot area, built-up area, plinth area, and Floor Area Ratio (FAR).
It underlines crucial mandatory instructions such as:
These rules not only promote lawful practices in the building industry but also ensure environmental sustainability and public safety.

This statement emphasizes the importance of showcasing licenses and approved plans where people can easily see them. A licensed premises is one that has official permission to operate, and displaying these documents openly helps to inform the public that the business adheres to relevant regulations and has received the necessary approvals. This transparency builds trust with customers and regulatory authorities.
Imagine you go to a restaurant, and you see a certificate on the wall that proves they are inspected and safe to eat at. It gives you confidence. Similarly, displaying licenses and approved plans acts like that certificate, reassuring the public that everything is in order.

The applicant shall ensure that the Rainwater Harvesting Structures are provided and maintained in good condition for storage of water for non-potable purposes or recharge of ground water at all times having a minimum total capacity mentioned in the bye-laws 32(a).
This regulation highlights the necessity for structures that collect and store rainwater, which can be used for non-drinking purposes like watering plants or flushing toilets. This is crucial for sustainable water management. It ensures that the responsible parties maintain these systems properly so that they remain functional and beneficial for the environment. The mention of 'bye-laws 32(a)' indicates there's a legal standard specifying minimum storage capacity, ensuring that these systems are effective.
Think of rainwater harvesting structures like a savings account for water. Just as you save money for future use, these systems collect rainwater. If you manage this account well, it can support your needs during dry periods, ensuring you always have access to water.

Employment of child labour in the construction activities is strictly prohibited.
This regulation clearly states that employing children in construction work is not allowed. The aim is to protect children from harsh working conditions and ensure they receive an education instead. It emphasizes ethical practices in the workforce and aims to prevent exploitation. This rule reflects a commitment to safeguarding children's rights and promoting a responsible approach to labor in the construction industry.
Imagine being at a construction site and seeing a child carrying heavy bricks instead of going to school. That situation would be concerning. This regulation is like a safety net, stepping in to make sure children are not harmed and can focus on learning instead of labor.
