    LITERATURE REVIW ON

    LOW COST TECHNOLOGY


    FOR HOUSING

    SUBMITTED BY: SUBMITTED TO:


    SONISHA ARYAL DEPARTMENT OF
    ARCH
    A17/24 PEC , PHIRKE
    Definition:
    A low cost housing is Cost Eco
    efficient friendly
    considered a concept
    of reduction in the
    cost of construction
    Low cost
    without sacrificing
    housing
    the strength required
    for the performance
    of the building . It is Improved
    living
    also known as condition Durability
    durability
    affordable housing.
    Objectives:
    Inexpensive to build.
    Save money while also maintaining
    building quality.
    Not sacrificing the performance,
    strength and life of the structure.
    Take less time in building in
    comparison to the convectional ones.
    Final result should be affordable for
    most people.
    Designing cost effective building
    Building Techniques For Cost Reduction
    Recycling
    Extensive planning
    Modular planning
    Infilling
    Recycling
    Recycled materials used for the
    low cost housing include wood and rubber that has
    been previously used.
    Reprocessed into materials that are used in
    building walls or other parts of the house.
    Recycled glass and metals also can be used.
    These recycled materials are usually cheaper than using
    fully natural materials.
    Extensive Planning
    In extensive planning
    more planning goes on
    construction less will be
    the cost.
    Contractor should plan

    out exact dimensions and


    look for the best
    materials on the
    cheapest price so they
    can order exactly what they need.
    Modular Planning
    Infilling
    Techniques to reduce cost from
    area:
    Reduce plinth area by using thinner wall concept.
    Use locally available materials in an innovative
    form like soil cement blocks in place of burnt
    brick.
    Use energy efficiency materials which consumes
    less energy like concrete block in place of burnt
    brick.
    Use environment friendly materials which are
    substitute for conventional building components
    like use R.C.C. door and window frames in place
    of wooden frames.
    Materials
    Natural materials:
    1. Bamboo
    2. Earth
    3. Straw
    4. Fiber cement composites

    Preparation of proper plan
    Itis found that square plot
    will be more economical than
    the rectangular plot.
    This is because the boundary
    wall length
    will be shorter for square
    wall compared to rectangular
    one.
    For same area perimeter for
    square plot become less
    compared to the rectangular
    one.
    The cost of brickwork
    plastering and wall base
    Construction Technique adopted
    FOUNDATION
     Under Reamed Piles
    In the areas where the
    bearing capacity of is soil
    is low and the soil is
    expansive the convectional
    way of providing footing is
    spread footing.

    The under-reamed piles


    are considered economic
    and ideal in such cases.
    Hyperbolic paraboloid footing
    1. In the soil of low bearing capacity the base of
    footing of columns should be enlarged to larger
    sections.
    2. In such case it is very economical to use
    hyperbolic paraboloid footing.
    3. The saving is 10-30% depending upon the
    characteristics of the soil.

    Designing a green building
    Designing a green building save a lot of water
    and electrical energy and makes it cost effective
    for lifetime.
    Green building’s major components:

    Advantages of green buildings:


    Site planning :
    Services
    •Clubbing of services within the housr/adjoining houses.
    •Using precast gargoyles for draining rain water instead
    of rain water pipes.
    Landscape designing
    Locally available vegetation will be ideal for the
    climate of the site and economical for the
    landscaping.
