Assessing Sustainability of Building Materials in Developing Countries: The S...Jeremy Gibberd
This article investigates the nature of sustainability assessment of building materials in order to critically review the Sustainable Building Material Index methodology. A literature study is carried out to define sustainability, develop assessment indicators for building materials and describe, and critically review, the Sustainable Building Material Index (SBMI).
The SBMI methodology appears to have potential as a way of providing an indication of the sustainability impacts of building materials and products for developing countries. The SBMI methodology is innovative as it provides a way of capturing simple socio-economic sustainability aspects related to building products, which has not been included in many other building product assessment methodologies.
Construction and demolition waste recyclingAnand Vallala
Now a days as the construction is increasing the demolition waste from the buildings is also increasing. We have to increase the usage of waste materials and to help for the future generation.
Construction activities generate millions of tonnes of Construction and Demolition (C&D) waste materials each year. These materials contain a lot of reusable materials. If not properly managed, they will become wastes, a burden to the society, which will be extremely expensive to handle and will occupy precious landfill space.
Now even for small projects it has been made mandatory to use Ready mix concrete or compulsory use of Batching plant. However, except for large projects and some industrial projects, Demolition of structures is not yet mechanised. This waste is also affects the air, noise pollution in the form of releasing dust and noise respectively.
Recycling can turn the waste materials into usable products, which can help conserve our natural resources for our next generations and for the sustainable development of the society. In the recent years, C&D waste management issues have attracted the attention from researches around the world.
The ultimate aim is to create the awareness among the Civil Engineers is to do the research on this topic and to reuse these materials.
Main points of this PPT:
• An overview of the concept on Waste management.
• Brief description on “Recycled Concrete Aggregates”.
• Waste reduction and Reuse.
• Demolition techniques.
• Use of proper Waste Management plan.
It is all about sustainable buildings or green buildings and a brief study of some sustainable building materials we can use for making a building sustainable and green.
Avoidance of waste and recycling of construction and demolition waste Dr K M SONI
Waste generation has to be stopped whether food, water, energy or even construction and demolition. This will save natural resources and help in emission of greenhouse gases and climate change.

I came to know regarding this competition from rediff.com
The idea of Energy Efficient design is
to modulate the conditions such that they
are always within or as close as possible to
comfort zone.Modulations introduced by the
landscape,built form,envelope,materials and
other control measures bring the conditions
within the range throughout twenty four hours
cycle.
This is goal of Energy Efficient Architecture
Buildings, as they are designed and used today, contribute to serious environmental and economical problems because of excessive consumption of energy and other natural resources. The close connection between energy use in buildings and environmental damage arises because energy-intensive and monetarily expensive solutions sought to construct a building and meet its demands for heating, cooling, ventilation, and lighting cause severe depletion of invaluable environmental resources
Energy resource efficiency in new constructions
can be effected by adopting an
Integrated Approach To Building Design.

Conservation of Concrete Structure in Buildings
1. GUEST LECTURE CUM WORKSHOP ON
"CULTURAL HERITAGE CONSERVATION:
TOWARDS NEW PARADIGM"
On
2nd
and 3rd
May, 2013 CCA Auditorium (Anjuman)

Head T&CP Deptt., Govt. of Pb.
CONSERVATION OF CONCRETE STRUCTURES IN BUILDINGS
2. Definitions
• Culture/Cultural
The arts, customs and institutions of a nation
Related to the art, culture and intellectual achievements of a society.
• Heritage
Moveable e.g. piece of art or custom or traditions.
Immovable property, inherited or passed down from earlier
generations. i.e. historical sites, monuments or buildings.
The Protection of Historical Sites, Monuments and Buildings ACT.
Specifies a minimum period of a 100 years before it can qualify as a
heritage for protection.
3. • Conservation
Careful use of a resource (man-made or natural resources) to
preserve or repair of a piece of art or culture, archaeological or
historical sites, monuments, and buildings, or the natural environment.
• Paradigm
A model or concept, underlying the theories and practice of a
scientific subject.
• Concrete
A building material made of gravel (crushed stone/pebbles), sand, and
cement mixed with water, as a slurry, laid or cast in a mould
forming a stone like mass when dry, a physical form or structure.
4. • Structure
A composite free standing building or other object (e.g. a bridge or a
damn across a river), comprising of several parts and components
made of Concrete, or Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) or other
building materials.
5. Bhakra Dam, on River Satluj, Northern India.
Constructed in 1950’s
6. Thermal Plant Bhatinda, Punjab. Cement Concrete water Cooling Towers.
Constructed in mid 1960’s
7. Conservation of Concrete Building Structures
• Concrete or RCC is used in bulk with its façade in cement concrete
finish,
• The cement concrete texture in the construction is the key factor
and has to be;
a. A smooth and soft texture
b. Free of pitting, blisters or bubbles.
• Due to wear and tear, environmental or weathering action, the
surface of the concrete structure is damaged.
• The surface of the habitable inner side of the concrete structure
gets infested with cobwebs, insects and mites making it unfit for
habitation purposes.
• With age the concrete structure shows signs of decay, dereliction
and calls for its maintenance, conservation and restoration.
9. Chandigarh Capitol Complex: State Assembly and Secretariat buildings.
In RCC and Concrete Cement. Constructed in 1950’s.
10. Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar Pb: Library Building
In RCC and Concrete Cement. Constructed in early 1970’s
11. Conservation and Maintenance
Technique
The age old myth, that RCC or Cement Concrete Buildings require no conservation or maintenance
is no longer valid and does not hold good.
Due to environmental changes and weathering action, the exposed texture of the Cement Concrete
Structures pose a serious health hazard with respect to habitable spaces in buildings.
No serious efforts have been made to conserve , restore or maintain the Cement Concrete Texture
in buildings or installation of fixtures for said purposes.
The indigenous conservation technique (demonstration exercise) in GNDU Amritsar RCC Library
building in Cement Concrete Texture was undertaken in 1992-93. The habitable room in the library
was found safe and healthy even after 8 years of its restoration. The restoration technique
comprises of. ;
a)Dusting and cleaning the Cement Concrete structure infested with dust and cobwebs, etc. with
water and coir brush (Do not use wire brush)
b)Use palm broom or compressed air pump with a spray gun to dry and clean the Cement Concrete
Surface
c)Use a mixture of Diesel 50% + Kerosene oil 40% + Phenyl 10% with a 4 inch paint brush or a
compressed air pump spray gun
d)Exercise all fire and other safety precautions including the use of face mask, glasses etc. when
applying the mixture in the room or interior portion of the building
e)Allow free flow of air and ventilation in the room or interior portion of the building before
occupying it.
12. Conclusion
• Conservation, restoration of the concrete surface texture, maintenance and upkeep of concrete
structures be made an integral part of the design and construction of high rise buildings on a 3 to 5
year rotation.
• Permanent fixtures for safe and free movement of workers and equipment be provided for
maintenance and upkeep of the outer surface of the building structure in high rise buildings. This
will be cost effective as no other shuttering cost will be required for carrying out the work in high
rise buildings.
• Chandigarh College of Architecture Research Cell may undertake a demonstration exercise for
conservation and restoration of interior of Concrete Structures in Buildings based on indigenous
cost effective techniques for working out further details.
Cost Effectiveness
The Indigenous Conservation and Restoration Technique for concrete structures for a
habitable room in the GNDU library building proved cost effective and works out to less
then Rs. 1.00 per sq. ft. of surface area. This includes cost of material and labour, but
does not include cost of shuttering or escalators for carrying out the work.
