A Housing
Miracle ?
-----------------------------
It would be, if it is :
* a house consisting of Bed
Room + Living Room + Kitchen + Bathroom + Porch
* having an area of 650 sq ft
* costs Rs
2.6 lakh ( @ Rs 400 / sq ft )
* constructed within 24 hours , using recycled construction debris
Like all the readers , I too was a disbeliever till I
read :
Here is why this technology should be of great
interest to Shri Hardeep Singh Puriji (
Housing and Urban Affair Minister ) :
* Govt is committed to “
Housing for All by 2022 “ ( - some 55 lakh houses ? )
* Even those so-called “
Affordable Houses “ being constructed currently , cost Rs
5,000 / sq ft
* Present construction methods are
not only too slow but also very time-consuming
* Lakhs of already constructed flats
are lying vacant because poor cannot afford Rs 30
Lakhs flat
* In Mumbai alone , some 1,500 tons of construction and demolition debris
is
generated daily and BMC is
facing great difficulty in finding places to dump this.
Illegal dumping is killing
mangroves . 3 D printing will utilize all of this
debris !
I request Shri Puriji to examine the possibility of
re-designing the “ Housing for All “ program along the lines of :
Dharavi
Remaking SPV
