Precast concrete – An advanced method of construction

The latest invention in the construction industry is the development of precast concrete and engineering homes technology. Indian builders adopted these technologies after seeing the successful results in the Europe and the Middle East.

This new technology offers quality, value and speed at the same time. And also, it saves up to 64 per cent of the overall man hours needed using conventional methods. A building which takes a year to complete with the use of bricks and mortar can be completed within four months using precast construction and engineering homes technique.

The advantages:

Precast and engineering technology cuts down the need for the large turnover time, with components like supporting pillars, roof structures which are built in climate-controlled factory away from the construction site. A building uses this technology is economical and stronger, compared to conventionally constructed buildings.

This technology saves a lot of construction time. No only it speed up the construction work, but also enhances the quality of the final output. This technology reduces construction cost by 10-15 per cent. And also precast and engineered homes material eliminates the need for auxiliary activities like plastering, electrical wiring, etc.

The need for this construction method:

Realising the needs of the present day home buyers, developers have adopted this technology. Homes made using this technology are more durable and technically superior by further carry all the certifications of clearance under the safety and environmental norms of the authorities concerned. These homes are priced reasonably and give homebuyers an opportunity a ready-to-move-in option as they will be completed in as little as three months.

These homes can be constructed anywhere on earth. The cost would come up approximately to about Rs 2,600 sq ft, which is more economical compared to the traditional homes.

Realty industry is under tremendous pressure when it comes to completion of projects on time. However, precast and engineered home technology helps in sustainable development as they are eco-friendly and pave way for green construction and a greener planet.

Perhaps this technology might not be useful for group housing projects wherein every tower might need a different requirement.
