Problems Of Urbanization In India

898 Words4 Pages

ABSTRACT: One of the major sectors of the Indian economy is Construction and also is an integral part of the development of Indian economy. There is an increase in the demand for housing in India as it has the second largest urban population in the world. This increase in demand has become a problem and to deal with this problem India should plan for rapid creation of housing units and acquisition of land. The complex process of construction basically involves the areas of Architectural planning, Engineering & Construction. For large housing projects, speed should be given greater importance. This leads to the reduction in the housing cost and is also essential for the faster turnover of equipment. Fortunately, some of the advanced technologies …show more content…

Further, the number of houses built in any country could be another index. Due to the rapid growth of population and urbanization in India there has been a rapid growth in demand of housing, the speed thereof has not kept pace with the rapid growth of population and urbanization. As a result, the shortage of accommodation is increasing continuously, especially in urban areas. The traditional mode of construction for individual houses would be totally inadequate for mass housing construction industry in view of the rapid rate of construction. It is necessary to have innovative technologies capable of fast rate construction for undertaking mass housing works and are able to deliver good quality and durable structure in cost effective manner. Several systems are adopted at different places in the world. One technique which is gaining popularity due to is low cost and time effectiveness is Aluminium …show more content…

To reduce the total cost of construction.
3. To improve the quality of construction projects.
IV. ADVANTAGES OF ALUMINIUM FORMWORK
1. It ensures consistence of dimensions.
2. On removal of mould a high quality concrete finish is produced to accurate tolerances and verticality.
3. Total system forms the complete concrete structures.
4. Custom designed to suit project requirements.
5. Unsurpassed construction speed.
6. Panels can be reused up to 250 time
V. LIMITATIONS OF ALUMINIUM FORMWORK
1. Because of small sizes finishing lines are seen on the concrete surfaces.
2. Concealed services become difficult due to small thickness of components.
3. It requires uniform planning as well as uniform elevations to be cost effective.
4. Modifications are not possible as all members are caste in RCC.

VI. CASE STUDY
Sayantara, Ahmednagar is based on conventional formwork construction. Total numbers of flats in Sayantara are 20 and total number of floors are 5. Out of 5 floors, 3 are of 1BHK flats and 2 are of 1RK flats. G+4 storey building is constructed. Total area for 1 floor is 1775 sq feet. 4 flats are constructed on each floor. Formwork design is for 1 floor only. After completion of first floor, same is going to repeat for next

This will help decide on which material is best suited for each component of the building as we will be able to find which material is the strongest and long-lasting for the foundation and which is best at stopping heat transfer for the wall insulation. For a construction project to be successful the right material needs to be used for each component in the building to ensure that the

    American Urbanization started like a wildfire and it spread so rapidly that facilities and institutions in society could not keep up. From 1850 to 1900 America completely changed from its agricultural state into a new industry based society. The four paramount changes that occured during America’s urbanization period were new immigration, the build up of cities (skyscrapers and mass transit), living conditions, and boss rule and the rise of mass consumption. Even though the changes during urbanization did not come easily due to immense diversity, they still paved the way to modern day America.

    Whereas the floor collapse will and should prevent any further interior operations in the building, the exterior of the building should remain stable prevent a complete structural collapse that would endanger other buildings and anyone located in the immediate collapse zone. Mill construction also incorporates scuppers in the building to drain excess water from the building. These play a key role in alleviating excessive weight caused by fire operations that if allowed to build up on the floors could cause a

    3 MATERIALS AND METHODOLOGY 3.0 INTRODUCTION Energy analysis of buildings helps to simulate the amount of energy used in a building. It is very important as it helps to discover and ascertain new ways of conserving energy and ensuring energy efficiency of building components. Building developers, construction engineers are increasingly interested in creating more energy efficient reason, and for this purpose whole building energy simulation programs are being used to determine strategies that save energy and are cost effective. The most common way available to perform this building energy analysis is to implement building information modelling(BIM). Building Information Modelling(BIM) consists of a digital representation of physical and functional

  • Disadvantages Of Energy Efficient Construction

    2096 Words  | 9 Pages

    One of the most common drawbacks of the energy efficient construction is the high cost of enforcing. Although the additional costs are required to build and plan such buildings, they are balanced out by saving on energy expenditure; while, it is still extra money provided to build; thus, additional cost is valid criticism. In addition to this, building materials are not always available. The most noticeable negative feature of energy efficient construction is the environmental concern. Although it is environmentally friendly which produces less carbon emissions, it has slight unfavorable effects on the human health.

    Urbanization improves access to basic education for all. Expanding education systems in urban areas is easier and costs less than in rural areas. Thus Africa’s rapid urbanization is expected to increase enrolment, especially at primary level. Indeed, the nature of cities appears to provide incentives for investment in education by residents. Returns to education are generally higher in urban than rural areas—and so literacy rates and enrolment should be higher in urban than rural areas.

Appropriate spacing between cracks must be determined in order for this method to work. Continuously reinforced roads can sometimes be more expensive than the other two methods due to the higher quality of steel used in its construction, however this can be lowered by the reduced amount of cement used in the concrete mixture due to the thinner layer of concrete in comparison with the other two methods. With proper management, this method can be similar to the other two in terms of durability and cost
