INVITES LIBERAL FOREIGN FINANCE PARTNER TO MAKE THIS EXISTING COMPANY A MULTI-MAGNITUDE ONE.

OUR MAIN FOCUS: To meet the challenge of millenium "Housing for all by 2000 A.D." and to cover natural calamities like earthquake. We have developed a prefabricated transportable house in two sizes 225 sq.ft. and 450 sq.ft. with attached WC/Bath plus septic tank and water tank.

MARKET: During the eight five-year plans reference has been given to the problem of housing and housing sector has become a subject of National Importance. Government has formed apex level institution viz., National Housing Bank. The housing policy envisages actions to expand infrastructure facility and services by increased investments by all agencies and to strengthen the financial viability and implementation capacity of the local bodies and functional agencies.

HOUSING SHORTAGE: The estimated housing shortage by the turn of the century is likely to be around 41 million units. The greatest constrained to the rapid development of housing activity in the country is the lack of financial resources for individuals along with land & infrastructure.

EARTHQUAKE RESISTIVE HOUSES: The shallow focus earthquake that rocked Maharashtra and Karnataka on Sept. 30, 1993 was of 6.4 magnitude on the Richer scale. Its epicenter at 18.2 degrees north and 76.7 degrees east was located on the border of the Osmanabad and Latur district of Maharashtra. The impact of this disaster was primarily borne by a relatively small area in the Umergaon and Ausa talukas of Osmanabad, Latur District respectively. The intensity damage was high with official reports of over 9,999 killed and admit 15,000 injured, 25 villages reduced to rubble and a further 58 severely damaged.

The overall area of affected district in cosole to 52,000 fd sq.km. and the core impact area of this disaster was roughly 3% of the primary affected district and 0.1% of the overall region. This is considerably smaller than earthquakes of similar intensity including that in Uttrkashi in 1991.

The most common mechanisms of failure were the shattering and buckling of the outer faces of stone masonry walls, the failure stone masonry because of the lack of through stones, corner failure in stone and brick masonry walls. Other failure mechanisms include overturning of walls, partial and total roof collapse due to the collapse of load bearing walls. Tacking sheer failure of masonry between opening was relatively uncommon was the failure of R.C. column beam slab systems at joints suprsing foundation, settlement was uncommon, as was gable, as most houses have flat roofs.

RECOMMENDATIONS: Design guidelines form the technical committee of the Govt. of India: The pits size and proportions (varying between 1:1.1 and 1:1.5) should cater to the possibility of easy sub-division of the household.

Looking at the socio economic status of inhabitants, each unit should have enough open space to cate to agricultural and other activities.

As far as possible each unit should have and enclosed courtyard.

There should be adequate storage space for food grains and other household items.

Illuminations and ventilation's conditions in living areas should be adequate.

Toilet and / or bath areas should be completely removed from the main living area.

Our company has brought this house as an earthquake resistive one with Structural Safety, Thermal Confort, Maintainability and upgradability (to ensure local maintenance and upgradation of structures at low future risk). Use of improved technologies.

USES:
Suitable for:
a) Low income group housing.
b) For factory labours.
c) Miners quarters/ industrial workers.
d) Class 4 employees of Govt./Semi Govt./Bank/Posts..etc.
e) Police constabiliary quarters.
f) Mines disasters Earthquake/Cyclone prone area.

OUR SOCIAL CONTRIBUTION: These houses offer an improved substitute to traditional construction, with economy and semi-proof earthquake/ cyclone resistive.

This house uses prestressed concrete technology, hence there is a saving in scarce raw materials like steel and cement.

This house is no temporary solution and has 100 years life.

Looking forward to huge housing shortage, there have a fast production and erection.

As manufactured in factory complete quality control can be achieved.

EXPANSION: Presently operation in Nagpur. But future plans on finance to open manufacturing units and selling outlets all over India in approximately 300 to 800 cities.

EXPORT: Our product as spares to building industry has a huge requirement in Gulf and other developing countries. Even consultancy can be offered to many developing countries.

PARTNER: Requires finance partner above(Rs. 5 crores) strongly considering our products and its marketability.
