 Dig a cylindrical pit about
60cm in depth. The radius
should be at least 10cm more
than the length of the bottle
that you are going to use for
constructing the pillar.
 Make a cement bed(about
4cm thickness)in the pit.
Insert an long iron/steel rod
at the Centre. Tie a long and
strong thread to the rod. Now
we are going to lay 10 or 11
bottles around this rod.
 After building all the pillars, You are ready to make
the platform.
 Make an outline of your platform with chalk powder
or any color powders.
 Make a Clay bed about
5cm height and width
5cm .
 Now lay the bottles (with
their neck facing
outwards) one by one on
this bed and tie them to
each other as shown in
the picture. After laying a
course, fill the inside area
with cement, clay or
rubble. This is to impart
more strength to the
structure.
 The compacted sand in the bottles are almost 20 times
stronger than the “BRICKS”.
 The Plastic Bottles are re known for their durability.
 This type of construction is more durable than that
of brick construction.
 The Bottles can last as long as 300 years.
 The cost of this construction can
reduce 33% cost of the house made
of concrete and bricks.
 Low Cost
 Non-Brittle
 Absorbs abrupt shock loads
 Reusable
 Less Construction Material
 Easy to Build
 Green Building
 It Is Un-decomposable and In-destructible
 When it is melted it releases a compound gas which
is harmful to health and environment
 It weakens the Ozone Layer
 By using recycling process the un decomposition of
plastic can be reduced
 Scientists are now developing plastics that are made
from vegetable oil and other organic matter. This
means the plastic is more likely to be degradable,
and so it will be safe in future
 Everyone should recycle as much of their
waste as possible to prevent reusable
materials being buried in land fill waste
sites. Recycling does not cost anything,
takes only a little extra time, and can make
an amazing difference to the world
