Objective
This
project focuses on development model advocating a Livelihood for the community
in the project area but through commercial route
Introduction
Inter-locking
bricks are the future trend in construction. These unique eco-friendly bricks
provide excellent load bearing capacity and huge savings on construction time
as well as labour and cement cost.
Stabilized
Compressed Earth Blocks (SCEB), are soil-based walling material, stabilized
with variable (say 5% to 10 %) range of stabilizers that provide a
cost-effective and environmentally-sound alternative to bricks. SCEB overcomes
the need of firing of bricks at high temperatures by compressing the soil
through manual or mechanical means.
While
interlocking is a definite advantage as given below, blocks can be made non -
interlocking (plain) to be used with conventional mortar. The machines enable
mobile options and can be set up at site of construction also to save on
transportation of blocks.
The
advantages of inter locking block over the brick are many some of them are:
- Inter locking brick, saves in handling of number of pieces per cum. Lesser joints mean lesser mortar and labour. If interlocking blocks are used than mortar can be saved even further.
- These blocks are even shape and size in width / height resulting in even construction and minimal undulations and no need of plaster covering
- Blocks have bevelled edges, walls can be kept exposed saving in plaster
- Interlocking blocks can be used dry stacked or with minimal mortar slurry resulting in faster construction and no need of post construction curing or waiting for wall to dry for painting etc
- Re-usable masonry if blocks are dry stacked Blocks result in minimal wastage.
- Blocks are available in width size of 220 mm (9") , 150 mm( 6") or 115 mm (4.5") , thus addressing most of the wall construction requirements
- Interlocking bonding results in shear key, lesser maintenance cost and easy workability
- Due to absence / minimal mortar, it is possible to reduce density of masonry structure and reduce wall dead weight.
- Very ideal solution for practically all kinds of wall
Market
opportunity
Very
recently a Green Tribunal has been set up by Government of India is effectively
deterring unhealthy and bad projects with respect to climate change &
environment. This has tremendous significance in legal parlance for continuity
of even traditional businesses. The local traditional brick kilns are on the
verge of closure. Incidentally a blanket ban on soil / sand mining is very
effective in the State of UP and is having similar fate in other states of
India. Whereas the raw material input in the current project is fly ash / RHA /
Brick Kiln Rubbish / stone dust ( a by- product of mining industry) are all
fundamentally a waste products are captured in the present project.
The
demand supply imbalance for reasons above of the clay fired bricks is a
disturbingly negative rather creates a big void in building material demand
which on the other hand is a boon for this project; the brick supply void can
be bridged through the supply of the present material.
If
we underline besides the normal market inroad as above and the strategic
initiatives of the Shakti Group too encourage substantial construction work.
The
two pronged situation is fundamentally such a huge market even at local level
that we are currently in no position to meet 100% demand. The market is
guaranteed. However, the Pan India brand and business development, particularly
across the country in rural India could be a significant venture.
