It is renowned for its advanced and meticulously planned layout\, which included a gridiron street system\, sophisticated drainage\, and organized residential blocks\, making it a prime example of ancient town planning. The other options are modern planned developments. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n In which of the following street systems\, the plan resembles to a microscope slide and is entirely unplanned with all irregularities? \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n Organic Street System\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Rectangular Street System\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Rectangular combined with Radial Street System\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Concentric Street System\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n An organic street system develops naturally over time without a formal\, geometric plan. It features irregular\, winding lanes that follow historical paths\, topography\, or property lines\, resulting in the unplanned\, microscope slide-like pattern described. This contrasts with the ordered layouts of rectangular\, radial\, or concentric systems. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n When the height above floor level exceeds about 1.50m a temporary structure\, usually of timber\, is erected close to the work to provide a safe working platform for the workers and to provide a limited space for the storage of plant and building materials. The temporary framework is called______ \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n Caissons\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Underpinning\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Scaffolding\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Shoring\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Scaffolding is a temporary framework erected alongside a building to provide a safe working platform for workers at height and a place to store tools and materials. It is essential for construction\, maintenance\, and repair work. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Le Corbusier conceived the master plan of Chandigarh as analogous to ______ \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n Elephant structure\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Human body\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Tree structure\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Butterfly shape\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Le Corbusier analogized Chandigarh’s plan to a human body. The Capitol Complex (head)\, city center (heart)\, parklands (lungs)\, network of roads (circulatory system)\, and industrial areas (limbs) each represent a biological function\, creating an organized\, organic city structure. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n ______ planning includes planning of the territory lying within easy reach such as 15-50 km and containing number of villages and townships. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n Local\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Regional\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n Country\n\n \n \n \n\n \n\n International\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Regional planning deals with a specific territory or region\, such as a metropolitan area or a group of villages and towns. It coordinates development\, infrastructure\, and resources across multiple local jurisdictions within this larger\, interconnected area\, typically spanning dozens of kilometers. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Congratulations!
