Precast Construction Techniques , Jaipur

Precast Construction Techniques

For More details & Discussion on Precast construction visit  Precast Construction Forum


The concept of precast (also known as “prefabricated”) construction includes those buildings where the majority of structural components are standardized and produced in plants in a location away from the building, and then transported to the site for assembly.

Features

The main features of this construction process are as follows:
The division and specialization of the human workforce.
The use of tools, machinery, and other equipment, usually automated, in the production of standard, interchangeable parts and products.

Supercast, one of the many, uses the Technology for Precast Structures in India.

The next evolution will see greater use of precast concrete in residential buildings. Building construction is witnessing significant automation, and builders are now more ready to experiment with new techniques and building materials. Modular, ready-to-use structures are gaining popularity as they possess the aesthetic appeal of modern construction as well as cost-effectiveness.

Challenges faced by Young Architects practicing in Jaipur, Rajasthan (India)

Challenges faced by Young Architects practicing in India


Challenges faced by Young Architects practicing in India

When an Architect passes from college he (she) is full with theoretical part of architecture in his five year of academics.
In real world he has to face unknown challenges of construction methods and its contractual system. Along with this the impact of client needs actually mutes the voice of young architects .
After ten or fifteen years of rigorous practice he becomes professional , but in this process he forgets the theoretical part associated with the building work.
This is the real irony in Architecture.

In architecture education for five year, student only understand the basic vocabulary of architecture terms used by foreign architects and their project they had done in past one and half century. This education is not sufficient for them to understand Indian construction environment and challenges they had to face after graduation.
Client expectation of vastu create unidentified limitation in design process generally leads to stereotype results in final output . These design results does not make job satisfaction for young architect and they start to avoid design process and repeat the design concept they had created in past.
After design concept and next thing is to get building plan approval from local authority. The organization structure of approval committee is such that architect have to face unbearable humiliation from lower staff of authority
If you have anything to elaborate this discussion please share on this forum so that the voice of architect is not muted and we get proper response from construction system, builders, client, contractor side.

Sustainablity
The attempt to sustainable development is to integrate an alternative building process, various appropriate building technologies and renewable energy sources, so as to promote eco-friendly and sustainable development

“Sustainable development is development which meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs."
World Commission on Environment and Development

A few key words
• Respect of Nature but also people
• Needs of people, from most basics ones to economic, social and spiritual growth
• Interdependency, between people and between Nature and people
• Limits of the environment, as the earth resources are limited

Dimensions of sustainability
• Environmental
It requires first a proper management of resources, but also: waste reduction, proper wastewater treatment, low emissions, use of renewable energy and eco-friendly materials, etc.
• Social
It integrates all group categories and levels (ethnic, religious, economic, health, etc.). Quality of life, uplifting local skills, impacts on local communities, etc, should also be taken into account.
• Economic
It promotes endogenous growth, which is linked with the creation of new market opportunities, cost reduction through efficiency improvements, creation of additional added value, etc.
