SRM Ramapuram 2 Weeks FDP on Vertical Urbanisation Er . B. Dhanaseelan , Divisional Engineer (Highways), GoTN , India Vertical Urbanisation ? Instead of building outwards-- Horizontally, vertical urbanisation looks to build upwards. The idea is based on the fact that doing so allows you to build more within a smaller area of land. To know how much total space is available for construction, contractors use a building’s floor space index (FSI ). Higher the FSI, taller will be your Building

Dhanaseelan , Divisional Engineer (Highways), GoTN , India Pros / Merits / Advantages of Vertical Urbanisation Used effectively, building upwards allows you to urbanise using a smaller area of land. Urbanisation is often seen as damaging to the environment, destroying nature. While horizontal urbanisation naturally contributes to the disappearance of agricultural areas, vertical urbanisation limits the damage done by a huge margin .

Despite being one of the most populous cities in the world, Central Park can run for 2.5 miles through the centre of the city thanks to clever use of vertical urbanisation in the buildings surrounding the park
