Table No 4: Light House Project 04 Ranchi (Jharkhand)
Construction Technology - Precast Concrete Construction System – 3D Volumetric
Factory made precast concrete modules Installation of the 3D Volumetric module on Site
The solid precast concrete structural modules like room, toilet, kitchen, bathroom, stairs, etc. & any
combination are cast monolithically in a plant. These Modules are transported, erected & installed
using cranes and push-pull jacks and integrated in the form of a complete building unit.
Sustainability – 90% of work done in factory thus there is significant reduction in construction &
occupancy time, resource optimization, improved quality, precision & finish, concrete can be
designed using industrial by-products, eliminates use of plaster, prevents leakages, minimal
material wastage (reduction in material cost), dust free environment, optimum quantity of water,
shu ering & scaffolding materials is minimal, all weather construction & be er site organization.

Table No 5: Light House Project 05 Agartala (Tripura)
Construction Technology - Light Gauge Steel Structural System & Pre-engineered Steel Structural System
Factory made galvanized light gauge steel components Light Gauge Steel Frame (LGSF) System,
with concrete walling panels
The Light Gauge Steel Frame (LGSF) System is the components/sections produced by cold forming
method and assembled as panels at site forming structural steel framework up to G+3 building. For higher
structures, LGSF is used in combination with pre-engineered steel structural system (hot rolled sections).
Sustainability – High strength to weight ratio, due to lightweight be er earthquake design making
the structure safer, use of the computerized system and Centrally Numerical Control (CNC) makes
the construction very accurate and precise, very fast construction, due to lightweight structure does
not require a heavy foundation, easy transportation, recyclable, very useful for post-disaster
rehabilitation work.
