AICTE NORMS FOR INFRASTRUCTURE OF ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY INSTITUTES
General
These are the norms for space and buildings a technical institution offering degree or equivalent programme has to perform. Unit norms have been evolved taking the absolute minimum needs, which are indicated as norms.
Around the administrative building, classrooms and drawing halls there is considerable movement of students and, therefore, there must be adequate veranda space in this part of the college building so that the classes do not get disturbed. For this reason, the ratio of plinth to carpet area for the normal building may be taken as 1.4, while that for Workshop type of space this ratio will be 1.25.
12.2 Classification of Building Area
12.3 Building Space for Instructional Area
The course structure of any technical institution degree program will include lectures, tutorials, drawing and design work, laboratory work and seminars/colloquium. The college must have adequate building areas for all these instructional activities.
The seminars/colloquium of the senior students must be conducted with the entire class of a particular discipline.
The model curriculum lays considerable stress on undergraduate project work. It provides 2-3 hours in the seventh semester for project work and 12-16 hours in the eighth semester. Though the students are to work on the assigned project work consulting the teacher-supervisor whenever required.
In the case of workshop practice classes for junior students, which emphasise the skills component of the training, the classes will have to be divided into smaller groups and work assigned in different shops. Considering the specific nature of training, the workshop practice classes of Junior students can have a maximum batch strength of 20 students. However, senior class ( i.e. V, VI, VII & VIII semester) must have a batch strength of 15 students as in the case of any other laboratory.
12.3.1 Number of Rooms for Theory Classes
The number of rooms required for the theory class can be determined by applying the following relationship.
NL = A(TL/SL)
where
NL = Number of rooms required for the lecture classes
TL = Total number of students in the College belonging to all classes of all disciplines attending theory classes of the given strength SL. This number depends on the admissions to different disciplines
Class strength i.e. the number of students in the class.
A = A factor obtained on the basis of
i. lecture hours per week per class, say 15
ii. Average teaching hours per week say 30
iii. utilisation factor of lecture rooms, say 0.66
A = (15)/(30*0.66)=0.75
12.3.2 Number of Rooms for Tutorial work
NT = B(TL/ST)
Where
NT = Number of rooms required for conducting tutorial classes.
ST = Class strength for tutorial. Tutorial must have a strength of 20 in case of 1st and 2nd year classes, whereas in the case of senior classes it should be limited to 15. Hence an average value of 17.5 can be assumed.
i.Average number of tutorial hours per week per class, say 7.0
ii. Teaching hours per week, say 30.
iii. Utilisation factor say 0.66.
B = (7.0)/(30*0.66)=1/3.0

General
These are the norms for space and buildings a technical institution offering degree or equivalent programme has to perform. Unit norms have been evolved taking the absolute minimum needs, which are indicated as norms.
Around the administrative building, classrooms and drawing halls there is considerable movement of students and, therefore, there must be adequate veranda space in this part of the college building so that the classes do not get disturbed. For this reason, the ratio of plinth to carpet area for the normal building may be taken as 1.4, while that for Workshop type of space this ratio will be 1.25.
12.2 Classification of Building Area
The building area required for an engineering institution can be classified as instructional area, administrative area, amenities area and residential area. Instructional area will include classrooms, tutorial rooms, drawing halls, laboratories, workshops, computer center, library, instructional resource center, seminar hall etc.
Administrative area comprises Principle's room, visitors lounge, staff rooms, college office, departmental offices, stores, conference room, confidential room, etc.
Area for amenities consists of common rooms, recreation center, hobby center, offices for Gymkhana, N.C.C., N.S.S. and Alumni Association, Co-operative Stores, Dispensary, etc.
Residential area includes student and staff hostels, staff quarters and guesthouse.
12.3 Building Space for Instructional Area
The course structure of any technical institution degree program will include lectures, tutorials, drawing and design work, laboratory work and seminars/colloquium. The college must have adequate building areas for all these instructional activities.
According to the model curriculum, during different semesters, the total number of hours per week for which the student is to have contact with the teacher will vary between 27 to 34. In view of this, for the instructional schedule, if spread over a period of 34 hours a week, the college can work for six hours from Monday to Friday and for four hours on Saturdays. (* In technical institution the period is envisaged to be of one hour's duration.)
The student strength in a theory class should not exceed 60. The class be divided into smaller group of 20 in case of junior (I, II, III & IV semester) classes and 15 students for the senior (V, VI, VII & VIII semester) and a teacher is assigned to each group. In case of tutorial work, these smaller groups must be accommodated in separate rooms.
For drawing and design assignments, the class can have a maximum size of 60 students but one teacher must be assigned to each group of 15 to 20 students for the junior/senior classes as in the case of tutorial and practical classes.
The seminars/colloquium of the senior students must be conducted with the entire class of a particular discipline.
The model curriculum lays considerable stress on undergraduate project work. It provides 2-3 hours in the seventh semester for project work and 12-16 hours in the eighth semester. Though the students are to work on the assigned project work consulting the teacher-supervisor whenever required.
In the case of workshop practice classes for junior students, which emphasise the skills component of the training, the classes will have to be divided into smaller groups and work assigned in different shops. Considering the specific nature of training, the workshop practice classes of Junior students can have a maximum batch strength of 20 students. However, senior class ( i.e. V, VI, VII & VIII semester) must have a batch strength of 15 students as in the case of any other laboratory.
12.3.1 Number of Rooms for Theory Classes
The number of rooms required for the theory class can be determined by applying the following relationship.
NL = A(TL/SL)
where
NL = Number of rooms required for the lecture classes
TL = Total number of students in the College belonging to all classes of all disciplines attending theory classes of the given strength SL. This number depends on the admissions to different disciplines
Class strength i.e. the number of students in the class.
A = A factor obtained on the basis of
i. lecture hours per week per class, say 15
ii. Average teaching hours per week say 30
iii. utilisation factor of lecture rooms, say 0.66
A = (15)/(30*0.66)=0.75
12.3.2 Number of Rooms for Tutorial work
The number of rooms required for the tutorial work can be determined by applying the following relationship.
NT = B(TL/ST)
Where
NT = Number of rooms required for conducting tutorial classes.
ST = Class strength for tutorial. Tutorial must have a strength of 20 in case of 1st and 2nd year classes, whereas in the case of senior classes it should be limited to 15. Hence an average value of 17.5 can be assumed.
TL = Total Number of students in the College belonging to all classes of all discipline who attend tutorial classes in groups of 15 to 20.
B = A factor obtained on the basis ofi.Average number of tutorial hours per week per class, say 7.0
ii. Teaching hours per week, say 30.
iii. Utilisation factor say 0.66.
B = (7.0)/(30*0.66)=1/3.0
12.3.3 Number of Drawing Halls
One drawing hall of 175 sqm. is needed up to the intake of 240 students in first year. If the intake exceeds 240 students per year, then two such halls be provided. It has been worked on the basis of teaching load common for all branches. Teaching load for Drawing of other than first year students is to be adjusted in tutorial rooms. The Computer graphic laboratories is to be provided separately in computer Centre for Engineering & Technology students.
12.3.4 Rooms Size for Theory Classes, Tutorial Work and Drawing Halls
The carpet area requirement of the class rooms and tutorial rooms depends upon the number and type of seating arrangement for the students and provisions for a platform, a table and a chair for the teacher. In an Engineering & Technology class, very frequently students make use of a data book, a calculator and note book. As such he will require slightly more spacious desk as compared to the requirements of classes for students of general education. Further, as the space required for the teacher will remain the same irrespective of the class strength, the per student requirement of carpet area will increase with the decrease in class strength.
The drawing hall will have to be provided with drawing tables and stools for the students. The drawing tables must be arranged with passages so that the teacher can approach the drawing table of each student. The drawing halls will also be provided with a platform for the teacher.
Considering the above requirements and the sizes of class room furniture and drawing tables normally used in the institution, the following carpet area norms per student are prescribed for class rooms of different sizes and drawing halls.
Type of Rooms Carpet Area Requirementin Sqm / student
Classification of size Minimum Desirable
Class rooms for 15-20 students 1.3 1.5
Class rooms for 30-40 students 1.2 1.4
Class rooms for 60 students 1.1 1.3
Drawing / examination halls for 60 students 2.5 2.5
12.3.5 Laboratories
The requirements of the laboratories depend upon the programmes that are being offered by the institution and the curricula adopted for these programmes irrespective of the students population. The norms for the carpet area of the different laboratories are given in the Table below. Care should be taken to provide laboratories in all allied subjects to be taught in a program. For example, if a college is running a degree program in computer engineering only, then laboratories from group E and H both will have to be provided.

12.6.4 Guest Houses
To meet the needs of the guests visiting the institution for official work and the parents visiting the students it will be necessary to have a guest house.
12.7 Furniture
All laboratories, library, workshops, lecture and tutorial rooms offices hostels and Guest house etc. should be adequately furnished. No norms for the furniture are begin laid, however it is expected that the furniture should conform to the requirement of a dignified institution, The Institution may equip the buildings with the furniture as available indigenously.
12.8 Land
It will not be desirable to set the norms for the land requirements for an engineering college because of existing high pressure on land availability and other similar factors. If enough land is not available near a large town, the double and triple storey construction may have to be resorted to. However, it will be desirable to have the total land area so as all requirements of the building space are fully met as envisaged in these norms.
In addition, it will be necessary to have additional land available within the campus for future expansion, with a norm of about 3 times the constructed area.
Keeping all these points in view it is expected that a new engineering institution located in non-metro location will have a land of about 20 acres at its disposal before starting.
