The entrance to be provided in the upper storey should be with a width whose measure is to be
5 or 4 parts of the width of the entrance of the first storey. The entrance to be provided for
each upper storey should be designed to suit one of the three categories – uttama, madhyama
and adhama. In each storey, the central hall may be designed so as to be associated with
stairway. The stairway should raise from the pedestal or from the level where there are four
dados. O, the Lords of the learned Sages!, the entrance should be structutred so as to look like a
pavilion in order to effect the pleasant and auspicious appearance.
