Show Cases
Same as wall Cup Boards.

Roof
Flat roofs poses no Problems. However slopes for draining rain water to be given such that the water flows uniformly from South-West direction to North-East corner where it should enter the draining pipe. If more drining pipes are required these are to come in the first half of East and first of North.

Sloping Roof
Only towards North and East. West and South Slopes to be avoided.

Used Water Exit
In North of North East if Sump is in East of North-East. In East of North-East if sump is in the North of North-East. when this is not possible due to small size of plot, first half of East or first half of North can be considered. Other points best avoided.

Septic Tank
In the first half or East of first half of North. All other Places are forbidden.

Other Points
VaastuGrowth of North-East: Many people are under the wrong impression that the building should grow towards North - East. This is not correct. Growth of North-East is effective when ;it is open to sky. Covering this with a building will rob you of all Vaastu benefits, (Refer Figure 33). This type of construction is to be avoided.

Attaching your building to Neighbour's Building
This is the worst possible thing you can do. In cities like Bangalore people who are very anxious to make best use of their plots extend the building to touch the residential premises of the neighbour. When this happens the Vaastu effect completely gets disturbed, because as far as Vaastu is concerned the two houses become one building. Due to this, sometimes it benefits one house at the cost of the other.

The Author came across a very interesting case where a house in a North facing plot was planned strictly according to Vaastu but the owner made a single mistake resulting in the atachment of his South-West Overhead tank to the North-West water tank of the next house lying towards west of his house. Within three months of entry to the house one of his teenage daughter committed suicide for a silly reason. On the other hand the business of the person on the Western side dramatically increased giving rich dividends.

What actually happened here was, for the West side neighbour the new building turned out to be an extension towards East which results in Vaastu benefits. The good opening in the North - East sector in the newly built house as well as extension towards East resulted in his financial improvement. For the new owner on the East side, the attachment in the West became a growth towards West which had disastrous consequences. I have observed this phenomenon in other houses also.

To enjoy Vaastu benefits it is imperative that your house remains independent. This does not apply to business premises and shopping complexes. the reason for which is already explained elsewhere in the book.

Extensions
If your budget does not allow full construction as per your plan and you have plans to construct the building in stages, then build the South and West half first and you can extend the building when the circumstances permit, towards North or East. You are into trouble if you construct the North and East portion first and try to extend the same buiding towards South and West at a later date.

Under such circumstances the only alternative is to build a new independent structure in the open space in the South or West. Even for this to become a reality you must have taken precautions to put a compound wall in the South or West portions where there is more open space so that the compound wall brings down the South or West offset portions, and that they are less than North and East. Only then can a day come when you will be able to build in the open portion. If this is ignored and if the open space in South and West are disproportionately more than the North and East Offsets, your economical conditions will go down hill and you will never be able to take up further constructions.
