The first part was devoted to the preparation of new plan for the Aluva bus terminal and second part consists of 3D modeling of the building. The proposed site is at Aluva. It consists of G+ 3 storey building. The typical plan of the building is given below. The building is planned according to the requirements of the users by conducting a questionnaire survey. Visits to various construction sites were conducted. This site visits helped to be aware of the latest construction methods that are adopted and being practiced in construction industry.

Aluva is the second biggest town in ernakulam district after kochi city. Situated around 15 km from the city center on the banks of river Periyar, Aluva is one of the major industrial centres of the state. A major transportation hub, with easy access to all major forms of transportation, Aluva acts as a corridor which links the highland districts to the rest of the state. Aluva is accessible through rail , air and metro . Aluva , home to the summer residency of the Travancore royal family– the Alwaye Palace is also famous for the Sivarathri festival celebrated annually at the sandbanks of Periyar. Today, whilst part of the Kochi urban agglomeration, Aluva is an autonomous municipality. its civic administration conducted by Aluva Municipal Council. The town also serves as the administrative centre of the Aluva taluk. It is the starting point of Kochi metro rail, which began its operations in June 2017. A bus stand, also called a bus bay, or bus stance, is a designated parking location where a bus or coach waits out of service between scheduled public transport services. 'Bus stand' is also often an alternative name for specific bus stops inside a bus station. A bus stand are seen at different busy spots. Like school or college gates, markets, medical centers and the crossing point of two or more roads. A bus stand is usually employed to allow a bus to lay over at a bus terminus, without giving the appearance of being in service, or blocking the stop from use by other buses that are in service. Bus stands also allow short- term parking for driver changes or driver breaks. Aluva KSRTC bus stand is one of the most crowded bus stands in Ernakulam district. KSRTC bus station at Aluva, is a prominent transport hub in Kerala. It is exclusively used for only KSRTC bus services. Bus services from major parts of Kerala point in and out from the Aluva KSRTC bus stand. Even though the bus stand is having great importance, the state of bus stand is in a pathetic situation in the present scenario. Hence, the remodeling of Aluva bus stand acquires great importance. The remodeling of bus stand is done using Revit Architecture software. 2. SCOPE OF STUDY ● Efficient movement of buses in the bus stand. ● Implementation of new facilities in the bus stand.
