The common practice that is seen in the West is the adoption of technology in the construction field to minimize the overall construction cost, increase structure durability and handover the projects on-time. However, the use of such technologies is slowly overtaking traditional method of brickand-mortar. Though reputed Amarprakash builders adopt latest technology, they never completely depend on latest technique replacing traditional one, said the reviews on Amarprakash builders. In other cases, mostly builders practice either of the one. The most emerging technologies that minimize the building cost and time are Fiber to the Home (FTTH) and Prefabrication. Principal architect revealed that prefabrication techniques are used mainly in large-scale and high-rise projects.
These kinds of projects require such techniques as it helps in accelerating the speed of construction. The experts are sure that the future of construction industry lies in utilizing such technologies. Another type is precast technology which enables a quicker and consistent way of development. Currently, precast is being practiced in many projects, particularly in columns, foundations and even in slabs. Not only it decreases the time taken for construction, but also offers better quality. Some builders adopt demountable technique which is a step ahead of precast. This practice helps not only to erect the building quickly but also to dismantle and reassemble.
Materials such as slabs, fly ash bricks, prefabricated walls, concrete blocks etc can be used. Though it is expensive, it reduces time. Such materials are very beneficial to the builders since they need not worry about the problem of labor shortage. When this practice is adopted, it just takes less than a year for completion, in other case, the same project will need a time period of more than 3 years when it is constructed following traditional method. Although new method proves to be effective, it hasn’t gained popularity in the West. Concrete slabs and prefabricated steel are the most used form of prefabrication. Due to shortage of such materials, this concept hasn’t caught up in India. However, in certain cities, precast plaumbing pipes, kitchen counters and slabs for roofs are being used. Precast pipes and concrete slabs are easy to fix and it is also strong. Since, it is expensive, many builders are not showing interest in such techniques. The use of such practice is the blend of both conventional and high-end technology. In future, these technologies are expected to rule the real estate field.
