Opis

The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) is implementing Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana-Urban (PMAY-U) Mission, one of the largest public housing programs in the world, with a goal of providing all-weather pucca houses to all eligible urban families by 2022. Against an assessed demand of 1.12 crore houses, so far over 1.08 crore have been sanctioned; out of this over 72 lakh have been grounded for construction and nearly 42 lakh have been completed and delivered to the beneficiaries. Every year due to faulty construction practices and bad performance of built environment during disasters, there are not only heavy economic losses but also losses of precious lives of humans leaving irrevocable impact on human settlements and therefore, disaster-resilient construction is also paramount.In view of the above, it is obvious that construction sector requires a paradigm shift from traditional construction systems by bringing innovative construction systems which are resource-efficient, environmentally responsible, climate responsive, sustainable, disaster-resilient, faster, structurally & functionally superior.
