TA: Devkumar JaniConstruction Engineering for Mass Housing Projects
The studio deals with mainly the construction of an mass housing project. Contractors are provided with scope, milestones and completion dates and have their bid price as a reference. Contractors have to efficiently and effectively execute the project with these major constraints. In this setting, studio explores RCC framed structure, Steel Framed Structures, Composite Structures, Monolithic and Precast Concrete building construction by applying theory and learning from ongoing major projects to the assigned project. For these structures, steel fabrication and erection, concrete, formwork and tools-equipment-plant are key to achieve project objectives. Studio will focus on developing methodology that optimizes the resource requirement and minimizes the time required while maintaining safety and quality.
