Innovative Application of Prefabs in Earthquake-Resistant

Bridge Construction

A.N. Sarkar* Asia-Pacific Institute of Management, 3 & 4 Institutional Areas, Jasola (Sarita Vihar), New Delhi, India

Abstract

Pre-stressed concrete, widely known to be a prefabricated structure (Prefab in short) has

long been accepted in statically loaded structures. Thus, we have seen the construction of

pre-stressed concrete bridges, dams, pipelines, reservoirs and various structures including

more recently atomic reactor pressure vessels. In recent years pre-stressed concrete has been

specially used in seismic resistant structures. Just like any other new material, it will attract

criticism and comment, sometimes by people who may not have had the opportunity of full

investigation of the material in question. Furthermore, today engineers are more critical of

any new material or technique and will seldom accept them unless conclusive evidence of

their performance can be produced. More extensive use of precast concrete components,

which are fabricated off-site and then connected on-site, could allow bridges, vulnerable to

earthquakes, has to be constructed more frequently. The increased use of precast components

in bridges also promises to increase work-zone safety and decrease environmental impacts

for bridges that span waterways. Because precast systems contain connections, and

connections are typically vulnerable to seismic loading, a qualitative evaluation of the

expected seismic performance of each system is deemed necessary. Precast concrete

substructure systems have received much less attention than have superstructure systems-

both of buildings and bridges. The use of precast substructure components can provide

significant time savings by eliminating the time needed to erect formwork, tie steel, and cure

concrete in the substructure. The success of the system depends strongly on the connections,

which must have good seismic resistance, have tolerances that allow easy assembly, and be

suitable for rapid construction. This paper discusses precast concrete systems that have been

used for rapid bridge construction, especially in the earthquake affected/prone area. The

paper also identifies key features that are important for successful precast concrete system

applications in bridge construction and repairing in high to medium seismic zones.

Keywords: bridge construction, earthquake resistance, prefabricated structure

PRECAST CONCRETE SYSTEMS

FOR RAPID CONSTRUCTION OF

BRIDGES

More increasingly use of precast concrete

components, which are fabricated off-site

and then connected on-site, may be

frequently. The increased use of precast

components in bridges also emphasizes to

increase work-zone safety and decrease

environmental impacts for bridges that

span waterways. The researchers identified

four types of precast concrete

superstructure systems: full-depth precast

concrete panels, partial-depth precast

concrete panels, pre-stressed concrete

multi-beam superstructures, and pre-

constructed composite units.[1]

Social Implication of Housing Intervention on Spatial Fabric of

Slums

Rajender Silakari, Krishna Kumar Dhote*, Preeti Onkar Singh* Department of Architecture and Planning, MANIT, Bhopal, India

Abstract

Housing for poor has always been a priority since independence and has gained momentum

after the recent policies of government in last decade with its focus on improvement in quality

of life of urban poor. It is perpetual for urban professionals to review whether the

implications are leading towards the desired social development. The present paper focuses

on understanding the relationship of social and spatial fabric of slums with the help of case

studies of pre-intervention and post-intervention slums of Central India.

Keywords: slums, spatial fabric, urban poor

INTRODUCTION

The National Urban Renewal Mission

started in 2005 has been a landmark

intervention in providing urban

infrastructure and housing for urban poor.

Also the policy "Housing for all" aims to

make India slum free is another ambitious

project of Government of India. Projects

undertaken without the knowledge of their

likely social impacts tend to produce

unintended hardships for the local

population (Mathur, 2011). The

monitoring system evaluate the physical

targets and fund utilizations but at this

juncture of time it is relevant to go beyond

the economic benefits of programme and

analyze the social impact of these

programs on the communities where the

poor live. The outcome of this analysis

will lead to more useful guidance for the

ongoing housing projects under different

programs which aims to achieve the long

term goals of poverty alleviation and

social upgradation. The assessment of

social implication of such programs will

help in making the projects responsive to

the social development concern. The aim

of assessing social implications is to

understand the consequences of the

development interventions as every project

have social ramifications. It provides an

opportunity for the beneficiaries, may be

passively to participate and respond in

shaping their future.

Globally, social impact assessment is seen

as an overarching framework that

embodies the evaluation of all impacts on

humans and on all the ways in which

people and their communities interact with

their socio-cultural economic and bio-

physical environment. With reference to

the housing programme for urban poor

oneneeds to understand what constitutes

social impact and identifies the indicators

to measure the impacts. The impacts of

housing programme can be classified as

social impact, economic impact and

impact on built or spatial fabric. The

present article discusses the intricate

relationship of social fabric formed and

evolved by community living there and the

spatial fabric which has grown

subsequently. The housing intervention

Urban Agriculture and Vertical Farming Technology in

Agropolis

A.N. Sarkar*

Ex-Senior Professor (International Business) & Dean (Research), Asia-Pacific Institute of

Management, New Delhi, India

Abstract

The concept of Urban Agriculture dates back 1915; whereas the Vertical Farming is

relatively a recent concept. With the alarming pace of globalization, industrialization and

urbanization there is visibly a huge population flux in the major cities with meteoric rise of

demand for healthy food to feed the teeming millions. This has prompted the scientists to

evolve alternate farming approaches to fill-in the gaps. The recent innovations and

technological breakthrough have given rise to what are currently widely known as urban

agriculture, vertical farming, roof-top farming, hydroponics. The paper is dedicated to

discuss some of recent innovations made as well as technological breakthroughs in the field

of urban agriculture and vertical farming in Agropolis.

Keywords: agropolis, urban agriculture, vertical farming

URBAN AGRICULTURE: THE

DEFINITION

Urban agriculture is “the growing,

processing and distributing of food and

other products through intensive plant

cultivation and animal husbandry in and

around cities” .[1]

City farming and urban

farming are sometimes used

synonymously with urban agriculture.

Community gardening is a similar idea,

although it often refers specifically to

production for gardeners’ own use rather

than for sale.

The term “urban agriculture” was

associated with several different

definitions and meanings. ANR describes

urban agriculture to include beyond that

which is strictly for home consumption or

educational purposes, production,

distribution and marketing of food and

other products within the cores of

metropolitan areas and at their edges.

Examples in this regard include roof-top

agriculture and horticulture, ornamental

creepers, hydro/aquaponics, herbal

gardens, vertical agriculture community

supported agriculture, and family farms

located in metropolitan greenbelts

(Adapted from the American Planning

Association, 2011).

Urban agricultureand urban farming

bradly include urban gardening around a

village, town, or eco-city .[1]

Urban

agriculture can also livestock, piggery,

poultry, fishery, apiculture, fresh-water

aquaculture, agro-forestry, and horti-

pastoral system. These activities occur

in peri-urban areas as well, and peri-urban

agriculture may have different

characteristics .[2]

Urban agriculture can

reflect varying levels of economic and

social development. In the global north, it

often takes the form of a social movement

for sustainable communities, where

Bamboo Reinforced Low Cost House – A Case Study

T.K. Lohani*, K.P. Dash, P.K. Parida, S.K. Mansingh

Department of Civil Engineering, Orissa Engineering College, Orissa, India

Abstract

The objective is to set up a low cost house using bamboo and its culms as reinforcement

material. A prototype of such a construction has been undertaken in an area of 255 sq.ft. As

bamboo acts as a structural member, it can replace steel as reinforcement. The proposed

structure consists of four supporting column and one main column at its centre to achieve a

better economy due to reduction in the number of columns and replacement of steel by

bamboo (20% reduction in overall cost). This case study explores the various aspects of

bamboo reinforcement building methodologies for low cost housing by highlighting the

alternate resources for economy and durability. Bamboo is a grass and botanically belongs

to family “Poaceae”. Dendrocalamus strictus, bambusa vulgaris schard are the species

which have highest value of tensile and compression strength. Major problem in using

bamboo as construction material are water absorption and moisture content. Proper

seasoning and/or treatment has made the bamboo to use as a reinforced material. Test

results on mechanical and physical properties of load bearing aspects are undertaken to

compare them with standards available. An estimated cost of Rs. 360,000.00 was calculated

which saves approximately Rs. 100,000.00.

Keywords: culm, column, earthwork, reinforcement, sizing, seasoning

INTRODUCTION The increase cost of concrete and steel, the

most prevalent construction material for

urban housing, has exacerbated the

growing demand for housing. Relying

completely on masonry and reinforced

concrete building system has made even

the most modest housing unit too

expensive for the urban dwellers.

Considering the situation, this project

aimed to assess the potential of local

bamboo resources to provide an

alternative, sustainable, safe, and

affordable building material in present

scenario. From the results of INBAR[1]

and AIRCA,[2]

it has been demonstrated

that due to its strength, versatility,

earthquake-resistant, fast-growing, and

self-regenerating properties, when treated

and used properly, becomes a highly

renewable and affordable material that can

be used in every component of housing. In

2004, INBAR’s work on bamboo

construction was validated by the

International Organization for

Standardisation (ISO), which issued

international standards bamboo: structural

design[3]

and determination of physical

and mechanical properties of bamboo.[4]

The use of bamboo as reinforcement in

port land cement concrete has been

studied extensively by Clemson

Agricultural College. [5]

Bamboo has been

used as a construction material in certain

areas for centuries, but its application as

reinforcement in concrete had received

little attention until the Clemson study. A

Garima Agarwal*

Department of Biotechnology, Jaypee Institute of Information Technology, Noida, India

Abstract

This paper reveals a review of the key literature on the issues relating to planning,

development and management of sustainable cities, introduces the contributions from the

Special Issue, and speculates on the prospective research directions to place necessary

mechanisms to secure a sustainable urban future for all. Today all the rural areas is going to

convert in urban areas for the benefit of future generation but it completely effecting

livestock, natural disaster, etc.

BACKGROUND

Increasing urbanization will be one of the

defining features of the 21st century. This

leads to particular environmental

challenges, but also gives opportunities for

urban development that can contribute to

newer goals of improving the quality of

life for urban residents and help them in

achieving greater levels of global

sustainability. Almost 50% of the world’s

population already lives in urban areas,

with a growing number of these people

living in towns and cities in low and

middle-income countries. As well as being

a demographic phenomenon, urbanization

is intricately linked with economic, social

and environmental transitions.

Courtesy: Wikipedia

The main objective of this research was to

assess the practice of master planning and

challenges of land management in India

People’s Regional State thereby pointing

its future implications for sustainability.

More specifically, the study was intended

to:

Assess the extent to which master

plans prepared for the town attained

the objectives in the town.

Identify the challenges related to land

and their management status in the

town.

Discuss the institutional frameworks

and arrangements for master planning

and land management in the town.

Indicate the implication for the future

planning and management practices

with respect to the urban land in the

town.

CONCLUSION

I would like to appreciate for the

urbanization but urbanization should be in

limits so that it cannot affect completely

demolish the rural areas. Rural areas are

also important for natural phenomenon of

life cycle for every individual and we need

to conserve it for juveniles as well.
