Dear Friends & Colleagues,

Your overwhelming enthusiasm and heartening support for New Horizons

has been a great inspiration to us as we successfully complete the

first anniversary of this stimulating platform of knowledge and idea

transfer. On this occasion I would like to appreciate the commendable

efforts of Mr. Varun Mathur and Ms. Shivapriya under the able leadership of

Mr. Nitish Chopra.

New Horizons has embodied a stimulating discussion on various trends

that are re-defining how we envision architecture in the modern times.

This 1st anniversary issue of New Horizons thus stresses upon “New

Horizons in Construction Technology”. There have been growing concerns

regarding environmental impact and the supply of prevalent building

materials. In light of these concerns, it can safely be said that we will need

to completely re-engineer our handling of material resources. We thus

take a peek into far more efficient buildings of the future, built in many cases,

with very different materials.

To enhance visibility of our products & create awareness about our new

plant in Jharli, Haryana, two new activities were introduced. 'Walk & Talk'

and 'Nukkad Product Promotion' are aimed at interacting with various

consumer segments.

The cover story for this issue is an in-depth focus on Ar. C.N. Raghavendran,

one of the leading architects of our country. I'm sure we will benefit much

from his comprehensive knowledge and experience. The issue also

features valued thoughts on the subject of Customer Communication by

Mr. M.P. Rawal – Advisor, J. K. Cement Limited.

This issue also covers the various events that took place within the

organization. Other highlights in this issue include technical articles and

write-ups submitted by our executives and customers.

I look forward to your continued participation and positive feedback.

We hope that the future issues of New Horizons continue to be engaging

and we are able to make this a more effective communication platform.

Best regards,

Rana Pratap SinghHead - Customer Technical Services

Need ofCEMENT CONCRETE ROADS

Unprecedented growth of vehicular traffic on the city roads throughout the country has been observed in the recent years. As a result, the

road surface that had been satisfactory in the past has become obsolete for the present day traffic.

Though the entire road structure has to bear the load of traffic, the road pavement plays a vital role as it receives the load directly from traffic

plying on the road surface. The primary function of a road is to provide a smooth surface for vehicles and the pavement is a vital part of the

road. Besides, the pavement also transfers the dynamic load to the underlying soil called the sub grade. The load so transferred should be

within the permissible bearing capacity of the soil. Durability, smoothness and service life of the pavement is thus very important, particularly

on city roads, where the intensity of traffic is very high.

There are two types of pavements used for roads, viz. flexible pavement and rigid pavement. In flexible pavements, bitumen is used as

binder, whereas in the case of a rigid pavement, cement is the binding material. These are known as bituminous and cement concrete roads

respectively. Cement concrete roads are superior to bituminous roads in many ways. They can carry greater intensity of traffic while their

maintenance cost is also less, though the initial cost is high. The load dispersion in case of bituminous pavement takes place along a

truncated cone, whereas in case of cement concrete roads, it is through beam action of concrete slabs. For this reason, the thickness of the

road structure is more in bituminous road than in concrete roads. In case of concrete pavement, the load is distributed over a greater area

than a flexible pavement. So the depth of construction is less for equivalent load carrying capacity in case of the cement concrete roads.

Several methods of design are adopted based on theoretical analytic and some on sound engineering practice.

The invention of hydraulic Portland cement by Aspdin in 1824 in England greatly encouraged the use of concrete for construction works.

Extensive use of concrete roads started in 1920, though in some European countries concrete was perhaps used much earlier.

For example, Edinburgh in UK constructed its first concrete road in 1856, which is believed to be still in use. In 1926, HM Westerguard

of the University of Illinois enunciated his formulae for calculating the stress and strains in concrete pavement. In 1933, the Portland Cement

Association issued recommendations for Concrete Design. The use of concrete for road works has now spread to countries all over

the world, as extreme climates do not hinder construction with cement concrete and very little maintenance is required.

There are various advantages of using cement concrete as road material. These are briefly stated below:

i) Cement concrete roads provide a very good and smooth riding surface.

ii) Cement concrete roads can be used in severe climate conditions. Eg. High temperature, low temperature, heavy rainfall areas and

flood prone areas.

iii) Generally local resources can be utilized, eg. Cement, sand and aggregates without the necessity for importing these materials.

iv) The maintenance cost of cement concrete is very low compared to bituminous roads.

v) Cement concrete roads can be built over soils having poor bearing capacity.

vi) The polluting effect of the construction of cement concrete roads is also lesser.

When we started designing our new premises, we had already been in the business for over twenty

five years. Our knowledge and experience, though serving us well, did not make the challenge of

creating our own space any easier. Vastukar embodies our architectural practice as well as our

independent research foundation. It was envisioned as a studio environment where our practice

and research can collaborate while retaining their own identity.

We had begun operating from Old Town, Bhubaneswar, the erstwhile capital of the ancient kingdom

of Kalinga. Surrounded by remnants of this lustrous past like Mukteswar and Lingaraj temple,

we had been infused with their living history and architectural influence. Our new space had to

retain that connect with our traditional roots. This is why we preferred a plot in the same locality.

But today's Bhubaneswar, an administrative, institutional and IT hub of Eastern India, is a far cry

from its romantic past. A contemporary building with a traditional soul became our design intent.

We kept introspecting, contemplating and revisiting our concept to generate the appropriate

architectural vocabulary. Conscious of our decisions, we tried to balance our actions. The built

outcome substantiates itself with nature. Entrance of the building is through a veranda, a pleasant

substitute to a formal office lobby. With a garden to its left and a pool to its right, the veranda

becomes a place of interaction and movement. The building rejoices around the pool of water, a

bridge over which connects the veranda to the rest of the office. The design of the studio was very

important to us. We needed extra height and indirect natural lighting in the studio. The roof of the

studio was tilted upward creating a voluminous space. Clerestory lighting on the north and south

face reduce dependence on artificial lighting.

We were keen on the ethical use of local materials. Textured and granular surfaces created through

the extensive use of wood and natural stone make the environment earthy and sensuous.

Adaptation of temple architecture and local crafts reinforces its tactile impact. Mythological

narrative local paintings (Pattachitra) on the ceiling and door frame, carved stone skirting,

traditional stone sculptures and wooden brackets carved in the form of dancing figures infuse an old

world charm. The wooden furniture made by local craftsmen adds a rustic elegance.

Sensitive to the tropical warm-humid climate of Bhubaneswar, the design is responsive to the

prevailing wind pattern and solar movement. The covered veranda and shaded central pool helps

create a comfortable micro climate. Specially designed fenestrations such as double louvered

openings encourage natural ventilation. Vertical green walls used on the west and south face

minimize radiation.

We wanted this personal project to be contextual, functional and sustainable. But most importantly

it needed to be a place where we would enjoy working.

Concrete is the second most consumed substance in the world, after water. Based on the sheer quantity used, it is responsible for

between five and ten percent of CO emissions globally. Globally, many approaches to developing a greener concrete involve 2

minimizing (or eliminating) Portland cement (the major contributor to the CO released) are being tested. While most research 2

has tinkered with formulations on the macro level, researchers have also re-engineered concrete on the molecular level,

producing stronger, more durable, and greener concrete. Incremental developments over the decades have resulted in a

material with three times the compressive strength of its 1970 counterpart, allowing concrete structures to be thinner, lighter, and

far taller. The consummate example of how far concrete has come is Dubai's Burj Khalifa, now the tallest building in the world. At

more than half a mile high (twice the height of the Empire State Building), with structural frame is reinforced concrete, it suggests

a new era in structural engineering.

Fly Ash Cementand Quality of Concrete

J u n e - 2 0 1 4

Cement, the most important construction material has come a

long way since it was discovered in the city of Portland. Ordinary

Portland Cement (OPC), the most popular kind of cement in India,

is facing very strong competition from fast upcoming Portland

Pozzolana Cement (PPC). PPC on the other hand has been

known for past many decades but this product failed to become

more popular with users inspite of price advantages as compared

with OPC. Some, decades back there was an acute scarcity of

cement and main objective of manufacturing PPC was to fill the

gap between supply and demand of cement. But, during this

period quality control measures were not implemented properly,

resulting in a ban on the use of PPC in its construction by Central

Public Works Department (CPWD).

Recent technological advancement in the cement industry and

modernization of thermal power plants has changed the scenario.

Today, we have very good quality of fly ash and cement clinkers

and such fly ash ad mixtured PPC when used in concrete

structures in the hot and humid condition such as ours, produces

more durable structures as compared to OPC.

Environmentally popularizing PPC will help in averting a big

pollution disaster in terms of less CO emission as lesser quantity 2

of clinker is used (In the production of 1 MT of clinker 1 MT of CO is 2

emitted). Large amount of fly ash being generated by our coal

based thermal plants will be consumed and in turn produce a high

value added cement.

Fly ash is an industrial waste in the field of energy generation and

is produced by the use of ground or pulverized coal as boiler fuel in

thermal power stations. The disposal of fly ash has been a task

before the nation. Large scale generation of this waste has

become a threat for hygienic environment. According to reports,

India produces more than 200 millions tones of fly ash every year

through various operating thermal power plants. Hence, it is the

need of the day to dispose off such huge quantity of fly ash by any

means. If it is disposed off by dumping it on land, then a larger area

is required and it would prove costly against the rising cost of land.

If it is dumped into rivers or sea, it would create another problem by

silting of rivers and eradication of human and aquatic lives that

depend upon these sources of water. Therefore, the task ahead is

to know the importance of creative use of fly ash such as

production of PPC, brick, concrete blocks etc. The government

should also encourage the use of cement blended with fly ash in

their projects and strongly recommend the use of PPC as several

tests have already proven the higher strength of fly ash based

concrete. Recently completed examples of successful use of

fly ash include the Noida Expressway. Various flyovers and RMC

Plants in and around Delhi are using fly ash in concrete and these

types of concrete are known as controlled concrete.

In India, PPC is considered equivalent to 33 grade OPC, strength

wise. However, fly ash cement (PPC) is as good as 53 grade

OPC. Request has already been sent for gradation of PPC.

Recently BIS has increased the fly ash content in PPC from 10-25%

to 15-35%.To build up confidence in consumers, advantages of fly

ash based cement i.e. greater density, more durability, lower

permeability, less prone to corrosion of reinforcement and

better environmental conditions should be highlighted and it will

further ensure that PPC will continue to increase its market

share over OPC.

One of the main reasons for deterioration of concrete in the past

was overemphasis on the compressive strength of concrete. It has

now been established that the strength of the concrete itself is

not sufficient. The environmental considerations during the lifetime

of the structure are equally important. In the recent revision of

IS: 456-2000, one of the major point discussed and revised is the

durability of concrete.

In concrete, quality of cement is guaranteed by the manufacturer

but there is no guarantee for the quality of fine and coarse

aggregates and water. Since everything is prepared on site, the

quality is almost exclusively dependent on workmanship. A trained,

highly aware manpower and better raw materials like fly ash

cement will ensure homogeneous, strong, durable and high quality

conscious construction industry in India.

Light Weight Concreteand its Qualities

3A big disadvantage of conventional concrete is its high self weight. Normal concrete has density in the order of 2200 to 2600 kg/m making

it an uneconomical structural material. Constant attempts had been made by researchers to reduce self weight of concrete to make

it an efficient structural material which resulted in light weight concrete whose density varies 3from 300 to 1850 kg/m .

There are many advantages of low density. This helps in reduction of dead load, it lowers

overall costs of construction and also increases the progress of building work. In design, the

weight of building on the foundation is an important factor in case of tall structures or

a structure on weak soil. The load of floor and walls is to be carried by beams and columns in

framed structures and if these beams, floors, columns etc are of light weight concrete,

it would be considerably economical. Again, the most important characteristic of light

weight concrete is relatively low thermal conductivity, this property improves with

decreasing density. Where climatic conditions are extreme and also where air conditioners

are to be used/ installed, the use of light weight concrete with low thermal conductivity

will be favourable from the point of view of lower power consumption and thermal comfort.

The one and only method to make light weight concrete is inclusion of air in concrete and the same is being achieved in the following ways:

1. Aerated concrete - A method of introducing air bubbles or gas in mortar.

2. Using cellular porous or light weight aggregates instead of usual mineral aggregates.

3. Non - fines concrete - a method of omitting sand fraction from aggregate.

Light weight concrete has become widely popular in the past few years having tremendous

advantages over conventional concrete. In addition to this, modern engineering and better

technology has contributed immensely towards promotion and uses of light weight concrete.

Building IntegratedPhotovoltaics

Tech Talk

With increasing concerns of global warming, great emphasis has been laid on reducing

carbon emissions and dependence on fossil fuels. While traditional buildings consume

40% of the total fossil fuel energy, buildings which can generate the energy that they

consume utilizing renewable sources are gaining importance and popularity. Building-

integrated photovoltaics are photovoltaic materials that are used to produce electricity on

site, directly from the sun, without concern for energy supply or environmental harm. A

Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) system consists of integrating photovoltaics

modules into the building envelope, such as the roof or the façade. By simultaneously

serving as building envelope material and power generator, BIPV systems can provide

savings in materials and electricity costs, reduce use of fossil fuels and emission of ozone

depleting gases and add architectural interest to the building. The CIS Tower in

Manchester, England was clad in PV panels and currently apart from producing its own

energy feeds electricity to the National Grid.

About Admixture

As per IS 9103-1999, admixtures are those ingredients in concrete other

than portland cement, water, aggregates and additives like pozzolana or slag

and fiber reinforcement that are added to the mixture immediately before or during

mixing. As per Indian Standard IS 9103-1999, admixtures can be divided

into five main categories. These are accelerating, retarding, water-reducing,

air-entraining and super plasticizing. With a lot of developmental work being

carried out in the field of admixtures, their use in concrete is becoming common.

Superplasticisers, which lower the water/cement ratio and contribute in

enhancement of durability of concrete are the most common admixtures

used these days. These are available as normal type or retarding type.

The superplasticising admixtures are particularly useful for high workability mixes

or when the concrete is to be pumped. Slumps of 100mm, 150 mm or more

are easily attained by the use of superplasticizers these days.

The performance of concrete admixtures depends upon admixture cement compatibility, mix proportions and the environmental conditions.

C3A, SO , alkali contents, nature of sulphates and the fineness are the characteristics of cement, which can influence the performance of 3

concrete. Whenever admixtures are used for a project, it is necessary to evaluate the admixtures for specific use with the concrete making

materials and mix proportions to be used for the work. Admixtures are also evaluated for conformity to the requirements of IS 9103-1999.

Chilled Sails are designed to provide radiant and convective

cooling and heating. Chilled sails allow air to pass through openings between

their sails, thus increasing the capacity of the unit and providing an effective

means of dealing with the sensible cooling load. In an exposed application,

they are typically installed in interior spaces as a cloud ceiling, in a suspended ceiling or in a T-bar application with a standard

white finish. They can also be installed along a wall in a surface mounted application. In a concealed application,

they are typically hidden behind perforated panels (with a minimum of 40% free area) in the ceiling with a standard black

finish. They can also be placed around utilities such as lights, sprinklers, air outlets, etc. to incorporate into any building design.

Built on a 4.6-acre brownfield, the 209,000 square foot Federal Center South Building 1202 in Seattle, the regional

headquarters for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, boasts of chilled sails for geothermal heating and cooling.

Ar. Raghavendran has held important positions in various organisations like LEED India, Bureau of Energy Efficiency, Indian Green Building Council, Confederation of Indian Industry and various educational institutions.

His works have been published in various design magazines in India and abroad.

For his contributions to contemporary architecture, we found it apt to feature him in this issue of New Horizons.

The Visionary Speaks In conversation with Ar. C.N. Raghavendran

Q) Please throw some light on the early days of your career.

Why did you choose architecture as a profession and what

challenges did you face in the early phase of your career?

At about the time when I was born, my father had started

his single man Architect office in the early '40s and when

I was in High School and the pre-professional College

course, I used to spend some of my free time in the office just

enjoying the chat with the staff in the office and the numerous

occasions when my father took me with him to site inspection

and also sit in some of the review meetings with Clients and

Contractors. I was quite fascinated by how out of nowhere

a Building plan emerges on the tracing paper and magically

gets built though I had no clue as to the process that made

this happen. The idea of putting thought into action was

fascinating & inspirational to a young and unexposed mind

and it was thrilling to see the connection between sketching

by hand of ideas in the head and the shaping of the building

from the plans. I felt that this is the only way I could go and

did not look at any other career options.

In the first few months, exposure to the challenges of the

professional office would perhaps be very confusing but

at the same time exciting period in the career of an Architect.

On the one hand, one realizes that five years at school has

not prepared one adequately on the professional side of the

work. At the same time, practice also provides a platform

that challenges one's ability and skills. Here is where a fresh

graduate can create the best opportunity for oneself for

starting a lifelong process and it is a process of continuous

learning. Buildings one designs may be different over a

period of time but the spirit and process of design only

improves, if one is serious that design matters. My early

years provided a fairly large and variant mosaic of design

portfolios – from Group Housing, Educational, Commercial

Buildings, Manufacturing facilities to Institutional buildings.

The Clients varied widely from one another and so was

their organizational approach. These were the humble

periods in the post-independence era of Indian economic

and social evolution.

have ample opportunity to focus on design development

on clearly understood basis of design.

• The minimum impact is that in the practices abroad, the level

of design, detailing, finalizing of materials, specifications etc.

are well developed and completed. Complete information

is available to the Contractors even at the time of bidding.

Here again, due to the method of Contracting, Clients and

Architects would leave very little guess work for the

Contractor to make while submitting his bids.

• Lack of responsibility for these two important stages of

Architect's work are squeezed due to poor time

management and invariably, the bidding process has a

'forced-start' even at Concept stage or Schematic stage

when many important design issues are undecided or not

fully specified. Hence, execution of Contracts becomes

vexatious to every member of the team and surely all these

works leave an indelible mark on the final product.

There is a growing awareness not only amongst big

Corporates or Builders towards Sustainable Architecture

but a common house builder has also become conscious

of the push towards Sustainable Design & Construction.

It is heartening to note that many Governmental bodies are

also beginning to appreciate the benefits of Sustainable

design. But this awareness has not reached the level of

priority it deserves. There are voluntary movements towards

recognition and rating of Green buildings through a robust

and measurable scale of performance under various

parameters such as the Green Building Rating System

under the Indian Green Building Council (IGBC). Likewise,

mandatory measures through Energy Efficiency in Building

Code will also be dictating the Design norms for different

climatic zones in the Country. Many Local Governments are

not only setting examples for sustainable building being built

for Govt. use but also integrating the Green building

concepts in the by-laws and Development Control Rules.

It is understood that National Building Code is also bringing

out Guidelines for Sustainable Building Design. Building

materials and systems that are environmentally friendly are

also being developed and introduced into the market at an

affordable cost. These are encouraging signs but need a

bigger push.

Q) What is your take on environment friendly construction/

green architecture?

Over four decades of architectural professional practice

that I have had the good fortune to enjoy does take one

through a checkered field of experience and learning as well

as many eminently forgettable events.

Any design ought to reflect the context and the local ethos.

We have rarely applied Indian inspired design thoughts

in our foreign works. What we lay importance on is

understanding the nature of context and ethos in a country of

work, understand the people and design accordingly.

Few of the most significant differences in working in a foreign

country from working in India is that;

• Invariably, design work abroad proceeds in systematic and

well-defined stages starting from Architect's brief, gathering

of site information and other data, Concept Design,

Schematic Design, Design Development and Construction

Documentation. The scope of work and responsibilities of

the Architect as well as individual Specialist Consultants are

very clearly defined and each one of them follow the stages

very diligently and end of each stage is signified by a sign

off by Clients after mutual reviews etc. What is to be

appreciated is a fact that the Clients and Architects spend

a lot of time at the Architect's brief stage and formulation of

Design programme, spatial programme, cost reviews and

budgetary formulations (with the help of QS and Cost

Consultant). The definition of the Project scope is very well

thought out, debated and agreed upon and thereafter is

rarely changed. This enables the Architects and other

Consultants to start with solid programme framework to

envision the design and detailing including coordination with

the entire team for which ample time is allocated. Also, the

Architects & Consultants time is highly respected and any

unproductive work or abortive work due to changes in the

Design Brief in later stages of the project, well beyond the

Architect's brief, will mean not only time impact but also cost

impact to the Clients. Also, regulations for Statutory

permissions are well defined and explaining the changes

post construction is a rarity. These two factors keep the

entire design process on a single track where Architects

Q) If you have to define a set of values that are crucial to you as

an architect, what would that be?

Q) What/Who is the inspiration behind your designs?

• Innovate relevantly

• Make a Difference

• Be concerned

• Think beyond Brick and Mortar

• Design for co-existence

• Integrate and not disintegrate

By tradition and culture, most Indians are brought up in a

society that respects nature, stresses frugality and at the

same time tolerances to multiple thought processes and

freedom of action. Hence the designer looking at Indian

scenario will be inspired by the high level of sustainability,

local presence, local materials and local life styles moulded

together to bring about the architectural vocabulary which

is distinct from region to region. Avoidance of over

consumption and wasteful use of resources is not a typical

Indian habit.

A good design starts with a thorough understanding and

appreciation of several axioms which concern the Facility,

Site and Climate in which the Project is situated; aspiration

and performance expectations of the Clients and arising out

of the above understanding, the Architectural analysis that

leads to intuitive and creative spark of a design idea that get

further refined and pursued through an intensive process

of design evolution guided by aesthetic choices, selection

of appropriate materials and systems, integration of

technology etc. A good design can be anything – flamboyant

or prosaic but it should display an expression of creative

inspiration and fine detailing. A good design is a continuous

and evolving process and not a detectable object.

Design that has graphical or sculptural form is nice but if

it is never built and lived in, it is not Architecture. Architecture

must be built and it must serve the Owners' and Community

needs for it to be good architecture. Good Architectural

design must work for the occupants, the community

and be built in a manner that meets good economy and

environmental practices.

The influence of an Architect goes far beyond just the

project. To start with, the quality of built environment impacts

the well-being of the occupants both physically and

physiologically. Besides, the un-built portion of the built

environment created by Architects has a profound influence

on the neighbourhood, Township or a City. Also, building

activity is becoming a major component of the Country's

economy, both in terms of direct and indirect associations

and also is a hinge area of employment for millions.

Naturally, Architects, through sensitivity to climate oriented

design, people centric design, environmentally friendly design

and an eco-centric approach can contribute substantially,

not only to the well-being of those who use the facilities

designed by Architects but also achieve more for less in

terms of natural resources, energy and conservation of

eco systems.

In the coming years, the two factors above, namely design

for people and design for environment will be the two key

focus areas which the budding architects should strive to

excel through a combination of innate design skills and

integration of better understood technology.

Awards and recognitions are important and treasured

milestones in the career path of Architects and Designers.

Awards like this surely kindles the urge to reach out to newer

design interpretations, expressions and experiments.

An Architect or a Designer makes a statement with his or her

designs. Such awards present a collective forum of

recognitions and on many occasions, depending on the

response it evokes, the forums become a display of the

current as well as futuristic sensibilities of the Designers

and their approach. When the works of different Designers

from diverse background get to the forefront to be seen,

discussed and critically evaluated not only by the Jury but

also by all who get an exposure to the presentations, such

appraisals become benchmark of the state of design.

What better platform can the profession offer to the Designer

to comparatively self-evaluate and enthuse him or her

to reach beyond?

Q) What is your view about the work of architects of today's

generation?

Q) What is your opinion about J.K. Cement's contribution

Big IdeasWinning EntryStructural Failures:

Reasons and Necessary PrecautionsWe are often distraught by news headlines reporting huge losses to life and property due to collapse of constructions. Being a civil engineer such reports force me to deliberate about the causes for such frequent disasters. In 23 years of my services with Customer Technical Service department I have come across many structural failures. When I analysed all these cases which I have dealt with,I was able to divide the reasons for failure under the following heads:

1. Poor Construction practice: This is a major reason of structure failure in our country. In our country, most of the construction workis governed by the mason or the mistry. An ordinary man whois commissioning his “dream home” has full faith in the mason more than anyone else. For him the mistry is the key person at siteto decide what to do, how to do and also which material will be used for the project.

Wet mortar lying for hours covered with Tasla or gunny bags is a common scene at any construction sites and if you ask the mason, he will reply saying “masale ko tasle se cover kar diya hai sir, cement ki garmi nahi nikle gi.” And this wet mortar is used for many hours. Certainly the strength of such mortar will be poor and would be one of the reasons of structure failure in future.

The Mistry has also developed some indigenous ways of increasing strength and water proofing properties of cement like adding of sugar, salt, baking soda, detergent without knowing the actual effect of such additive on cement and these “local Nuskhe” always leads to poor structures.

2. Excessive alternation: Too many changes in the plan during construction process leads to poor construction. I have seen the owner discussing with the contractor at the site after the foundation work is over “I want my bedroom bigger” or “Can we shift our kitchen there?” or “Can this foundation take one more floor?” Such greed and frequent changes always leads to weaker construction/structure.

3. Bad Design: The other reason of structure failure is poor design. All buildings are designed to take certain load without deforming. Many a times, designer does not understand the weight and loads and uses wrong or incomplete data while designing the structure. Sometimes designer does not consider the loads which are not frequent like heavy snow, earthquake, high wind pressure, heavy rain etc. These loads when occur, also lead to structural failure because the structure was not designed for these extraordinary loads.

4. Foundation failure: Foundation is as important for building as roots are for trees. Foundation is the part of the building which transfers the load of the building to the earth. Wrong choice and design of foundation without knowing the subsoil condition leadsto differential settlement and cracks in the structure or building.

5. Technical advancement: Many of you must be wonderinghow technical advancement can be a reason for structure failure. With technical advancement lots of admixtures are being used in

construction and concrete, but all chemicals are not compatible

with all brands & types of cement and sand. Many a times, such

incompatible chemicals lead to failure of concrete and structures.

Secondly, there are many softwares available in the market

for structure designing but all softwares cannot be used in every

type of condition and terrain. Sometimes designers use the

wrong software which leads to a poor structure design and failure

of structure.

So use of technological advancement/chemical should be done

judicially to make a beautiful building

Prevention of structure failure: A very small mistake while

constructing can lead to a big failure and small precaution can

save lots of money and lives. Few small precautions to prevent

failure can be listed as under:

• The technical training of applicators/masons/contractor

will be a good way of preventing the structure failure.

A knowledgeable applicator will produce a strong building.

• Always use good construction materials and stick to quality

standards during construction and quantity of material.

• Good construction practices mentioned in codes should be

followed.

• Graded aggregate along with controlled water cement ratio

will produce a strong concrete.

• Structure design should be done after collecting the data

related to site and locally available construction material.

• Reinforcement should be provided at appropriate place to

avoid the cracks in concrete especially in cantilever portions

of the building. Also, always use the right diameter of

reinforcement in RCC. There is a big difference in strength

of 8mm, 10mm or 12mm rebar.

In the current scenario, buildings are contributing to almost half of the global

energy use. Hence designing of low or no energy consumption buildings can only

mitigate the climatic changes. Few steps to achieve such building designs are:

1. Site analysis should be performed to determine the weather patterns,

climate, soil types, wind speed, direction and path of the sun to understand

the ramifications of construction at that specific location.

2. Optimal location for the building should be determined, staying at least 100

feet clear of any watershed. The building should not be constructed within

a floodplain or near the habitat of endangered species. Trees and other

existing geological features should be avoided.

3. Orientation of the building should be based upon cardinal directions to

maximize the amount of sun that can heat the space in winter and decrease

the amount of sun in summer.

4. South facing facades should utilize a window area suitable to its orientation with a double or triple paned glass and a low e coating

to minimize the amount of heat transmitted into the space.

5. Select the appropriate window areas and glazing types based on orientation.

6. Energy modeling, lighting models, day lighting studies and computational fluid dynamics are all tools that can be used by designers

understand how building design best integrates with the local climate and micro climate features specific to the site.

7. Perform multiple iterations to hone in the lowest energy use possible, best optimized for specific site. Effective design modeling

in early phases will ensure a building that responds directly to the climate of the project site.

An imminently practical building element is the green roof, or living roof. Essentially, a green roof is one that covers the impervious

roof surface with a layer of soil in which vegetation is grown. They provide insulation, reduce the heat island effect, absorb CO , 2

improve local air quality, and mitigate storm water runoff—an increasingly significant threat to natural water supplies as

impervious infrastructure continues to proliferate. Green roofs are gaining traction in building construction, largely because they

have achieved significant value in LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) scoring systems. They are a very

low-tech solution to concerns about carbon emissions and embodied energy. Several high-profile buildings completed in recent

years have included a living roof, perhaps most notably the California Academy of the Sciences, in San Francisco's Golden Gate

Park. Its undulating, grass-covered surface integrates the building perfectly into the surrounding hills of the Bay Area.

Quality of Construction Material:Challenge for Construction

In today's construction scenario, quality of construction plays a vital role. But the matter of concern is that only Cement and Steel

are branded constituents in hard-core construction material. Besides these two construction materials, bricks, coarse aggregates

(Bajri) and fine aggregates (crusher & sand) are used. As far as quality of bricks is concerned, due to lack of any systemic or technical

control on kilns, the quality of bricks is not similar and according to desired strength. Mostly brick kilns do not use proper clay mix and

fuel for burning. As a result, bricks produced from these kiln do not have proper shape, colour and strength. Hence it is a huge challenge

to select good quality bricks for construction. On the other hand, course aggregates' quality directly affects the strength of RCC.

Therefore size of aggregate and stone strength are the main points to be considered while selecting coarse aggregates.

The biggest challenge in selection of aggregates is to select sand and stone dust. In the current market scenario, good quality of

sand and stone dust is not available. Also, these materials are not branded and there is no standard system to identify or select

these materials. Another problem faced in this field is that crusher owners also use dismantled portion of RCC for crushing which is very

harmful for construction. Presence of increased silt, percentage in sand reduces the strength of mortar & concrete and increases

final setting time.

In day-to-day construction, many defects are observed in buildings. If the reason of these defects is investigated, it will be found that

in most cases inferior quality of construction material will be the key reason. Sometimes, quality of water also affects construction.

It is the need of the hour to educate construction professionals about the quality of construction material and its effect on construction.

Introduction,

The summer season is setting in and concreting during this period, needs special care in its preparation, transportation, placement and curing. The problems faced during summer season impact the quality of concrete and precautions need to be taken for the same.

EFFECTSThe control of the temperature of fresh concrete is very important because temperature has major effects on its workability, delivery, placing and other properties. The major effects are:

Useful • Accelerates setting of concrete. • Rapid initial gain of strength (upto 7 days)Harmful • Faster evaporation of mixing water • Loss of workability • Formation of Cold Joints • Excessive plastic shrinkage cracks

• Rapid evaporation of water during curing period • Rapid hardening makes finishing difficult• Reduction in 28 days compressive strength • Increased tendency to crack

The ideal temperature of fresh concrete for placing is between 15 deg. C to 25 deg. C. It otherwise needs heating or cooling as shown in Fig-1.

Hot Weather Concreting

Problem ProblemAcceptable AcceptableIdeal

5 deg. C10 deg. C15 deg. C – 25 deg. C30 deg.

Heating Required Cooling RequiredConcreting shall not be done ifAmbient temperature is below 5 deg. C or more than

40 deg. C without special precautions

FINDINGS: The various data and research papers indicate.

a. Approximately 25 mm decrease in slump for each 11 deg. C increase in temperature.

b. Larger the delay between mixing and placing, greater is the strength reduction.

c. Concreting done at 38 deg. C and 25% relative humidity may result in 62% of Strengh at 28 days compared to concreting done at

23 deg. C and 90% humidity.

d. Rapid evaporation may cause plastic shrinkage and cracking and subsequent cooling of hardened concrete would introduce

tensile stresses.

e. It is more difficult to control air content in air entrained concrete.

f. The temperature of cement does not exert any significant effect on strength of concrete but aggregates and water do.

RECOMMENDATIONS

1. The most direct approach to keep concrete temperature down is by controlling the temperature of its ingredients. Aggregates andmixing water exert most pronounced effect by virtue of their quantity and specific heat respectively.

• Keep aggregates under shade• Cool aggregates by sprinkling water.• Use cooled water or mix ice (40 kg of ice / m3 of concrete)

2. Mix should be designed to have minimum cement content consistent with other functional requirements such as durability.

3. Use of Plasticisers / Super Plasticisers and Retarders is beneficial during hot weather.

4. Ambient temperature shall be below 40 deg. C at the time of placement. Concreting may be planned during morning and eveninghours, if ambient temperature during day time exceeds 40 deg. C.

5. The period between mixing and delivery shall be kept to an absolute minimum.

6. Form work, reinforcement and sub grade shall be sprinkled with cool water just prior to placement of concrete.

7. The area around the site shall be kept wet to the maximum possible extent to cool the surrounding air and increase its humidity.

8. The speed of placement and finishing should be maximized. Sufficient men and machinery shall be employed to handle and placethe concrete immediately on delivery.

9. Immediately after compaction and surface finish, concrete shall be protected from evaporation of moisture (3 to 4 hrs. after placing).It shall be covered with wet (not dripping) gunny bags, hessian, cloth etc.

10. Once concrete has attained some degree of hardening sufficient to withstand surface damage (approx. 12 hrs. after mixing), moistcuring shall commence.

11. The moist curing during hot weather shall not be less than 10 days.

12. Cure continuously, because the volume changes due to alternate wetting and drying promote development of surface cracking.

CONCLUSION: The climatic factors affecting concrete in hot weather are high ambient temperature and reduced relative humidity,the effects may be more pronounced with increased wind velocity. There are special problems involved in concreting in hot weather due to rise intemperature of concrete and increase in rate of evaporation from the mix. These problems can be minimized if the recommendations made above are implemented at site.

Nitrogen oxides are among the pollutants emitted by fossil-

fuel-powered vehicles, and in the form of nitrogen dioxide

are a major constituent of acid rain, as well contributing to the

formation of ozone and smog. A number of respiratory

and other diseases are also associated with high levels of nitrogen

oxide. With testing revealing as much as a forty percent local

decrease in nitrogen oxides where the air-purifying concrete has

been used, the benefit to end-users is clear. Due to excessive air

pollution, cars have been banned in central London. To overcome

such excessive pollution levels, a ceramic tile utilizing a substance

New Initiatives The Customer Technical Services team initiated some new activities in order to enhance

the visibility of our products and create awareness. These initiatives were conductedwith the aim of reaching out to the end consumer and also training the Company

executives about application of our products.

Certain materials seem destined for construction applications,

and it is worth taking a look ahead at what may be coming.

One such category is self-repairing materials. From concrete to

metals, selfrepairing materials are being developed that could dramatically reduce maintenance

costs and increase the lifespan of buildings. Since they last longer, they also reduce the embodied

energy of buildings by reducing the quantity of a given material that needs to be produced. They even have the potential to save lives by

keeping structures safer. Developments in nanotechnology have made these materials possible, allowing nanospheres containing bonding

chemicals (or chemicals that react with components already present in the material to form a bonding agent)to be incorporated into a building

product. When damage occurs, those spheres break, releasing their contents into the damaged area and repairing it. In the case of concrete,

these nanospheres can be incorporated directly into the mixture. With metals, they have are so far only been used in the galvanizing layer,

meaning that the repairs they are capable of will be more cosmetic than structural for the time being.

Self Repairing Materials

A new activity 'Walk & Talk' (WNT) has been introduced

to interact with end consumers and render assistance in

selecting building materials like cement and other allied

products. A morning session activity, this meeting was

initially conducted in a park in Rohtak where our CTS &

Marketing executives installed a canopy and interacted

with morning walkers. During this activity, pamphlets,

caps and small gifts were distributed among walkers.

The primary focus of this activity is to enhance visibility
