Green Architecture Vs Current Architectural Techniques

Comparison of Green Architecture with current Architectural Techniques

Any form of design, minimises environmentally destructive impacts by integrating itself with living process.

But our current system of building lacks respect of natural environment as well as for individual people and society as a whole. There is not a single building component used in current construction that can be labelled safe, earth friendly, and low embodied energy. A few materials meet one or two of their criteria, but for the most part the majority of materials fails to meet all three.

Green Architecture is not limited to one material although many materials should be avoided, but encourages the use of materials that are most appropriate for a particular place, climate and program. Green Architecture is also not a style such as post modernism, art deco or gothic.

Many people are beginning to associate certain types of organic forms with Green Architecture thus alternating those people that do not find the so called ‘Style’ appealing.

Green Architecture is a philosophy or movement and an approach to design, not merely an aesthetic exercise. If one has to be successful, Green Architecture must be appealing like classicists, modernists and practitioners of the organic movement alike.

Guide to Dog Powerhouse Design

Design of Dog Powerhouse Design

The fore more task is to create a work environment for dogs. How is this to be promulgated? The place definitely has to have a lot of sun and air that means it has enough light and ventilation. Dogs stacked into A/c gym makes the entire venture very expensive and unnecessary.

The power produced is to be stored in compact batteries, hence does not pose a huge problem.

Housing and resting areas are but a congregation of government standards kennels and animal rights, regularized norms and standards.

Veterinary hospitals are an important necessity to be considered while the design of the Project. The veterinary hospital should in close proximity to the Dog Powerhouse so that the consultation from the animal doctor becomes handy. For the animals around the powerhouse, apart from the inhabitants of the power house itself; facilitation for quick check up and admission for chronic or prolonged problem has to be provided.

Design of Dog Powerhouse is split into four parts for convenience:

  1. Introduction to the Design of Dog Powerhouse
  2. Design requirements to be incorporated in a Dog Powerhouse
  3. Scope and Method of the Design of Dog Powerhouse
  4. Guide to Designing a Dog Powerhouse

Growth and Sustainability

The room for growth is when the power produced is of formidable quantity. The government comes up with different solutions for the elimination of stray dogs but with this project we will be making good use of their power and generate energy for our households. This will also solve the problem of nuisance created by stray dogs.

This will be an important step towards the production of energy using an alternative resource. If the government stands up to provide funds for the mobility of the entire idea, a growth in second can be assured.

Scope and Method of the Design of a Dog Powerhouse

Scope and Method of Dog Powerhouse Design

Like we discussed earlier, the design of Dog Powerhouse can be split into four parts for convenience;

  1. Introduction to the Design of Dog Powerhouse
  2. Design requirements to be incorporated in a Dog Powerhouse
  3. Scope and Method of the Design of Dog Powerhouse
  4. Guide to Designing a Dog Powerhouse

In this article, we will discuss in detail, the training methods to be adopted to train the dogs to run the Dog Powerhouse for the generation of electricity. We will also discuss the about the maintenance of the Dog Powerhouse.

Indian Pariah Dog

The Pariah dog’s adaptations to training and regularized life style needs to experimented under a close watch by the care takers. The slums, most populated colonies of stray dogs have successfully adopted them and trained them to serve their needs. Thus, the results of the experiment towards civilizing the out-casted should yield positive results.

The gears enhanced the power of the training wheels and do not demand the extraordinary course of exercise from the animal. The next question is of handling of numbers. The stray dogs cannot be managed in the packs of more than 50. Hence, the need of segregation and division of small colonies (similar to the colonies in which the pariah dogs breed on streets and in residential localities).

Design of a Dog Powerhouse | Revolutionary Method for Energy Generation

Dog Powerhouse

Sounds really strange to the ears, doesn’t it? At the beginning, it doesn’t really make much sense. But this could prove to be an ideal way to increase the production of energy without the utilization of limited energy resources.

Dog Powerhouse could play an important in sustaining the environment. It could be counted under Sustainable Development.

“Sustaining the Sustainable.”

Design of a Dog Powerhouse can be split into four major parts for better understanding:

  1. Introduction to the Design of Dog Powerhouse
  2. Design requirements to be incorporated in a Dog Powerhouse
  3. Scope and Method of the Design of Dog Powerhouse
  4. Guide to Designing a Dog Powerhouse

In this article, we will try and understand the concept of Dog Powerhouse and Need for such a Venture.

What is a Dog Powerhouse?

The Dog Powerhouse is a space where in stray dogs about three hundred in numbers are housed. The dogs are trained to run on treadmills or training wheels. The training wheel has dynamos. Gears and inverters attached to it.

Hence a power station is to be formulated where dogs are trained, housed and are used for generating power. This, to rehabilitate the pariah dog or the stray dogs which escaped domestication centuries ago.
