The purpose of the project is to construct an extension to the Indian gavial pavilion, with the goal of providing a roof over the adjacent outdoor pool. The shape of the extension mirrors that of the existing pond and the access ramp to the gavial pavilion, while also avoiding the existing mature tree at the northern edge of the pond. Once the pond is covered, rainwater will be collected in a separate section of the outdoor pool. The collected rainwater will be used within the facility to replenish the pools and, after treatment, to rinse the filters. The structure itself is designed as reinforced concrete with a pneumatic foil roofing system supported by steel beams.
