TIME TO GET INTO FOURTH GEAR ?


Winning  ONE  LAKH  hearts  ?

-----------------------------------

Mumbai Mirror ( 15 March ) carries following news :







I could not get an accurate picture but from what I found online , following picture emerged of the slums surrounding Juhu Airport:


·         Area over which slums are spread ………………………………. 50 acres

·         No of hutments……………………………………………………………    6,000

·         No of slum dwellers………………………………………………………  100,000

No of families………………………………………………………………      20,000



Government plans to build new / pucca flats on this land and allot to the slum-dwellers


This is a very humane and practical decision since these slum dwellers earn their livelihood by working in nearby areas


Giving them flats which are 25 km away from their work-place would be meaningless

No one will want to move that far away !

Urban Renewal ?  [  05  June  2014  ]





HOW SHOULD MAHARASHTRA GOVERNMENT GO ABOUT THIS PROJECT ?

50 acres is nearly  21.8   lakh sq ft

If FSI of  3.5   is permitted , that would provide for built-up area of  76.3  lakh sq ft

At  400 sq ft  per flat, that would give  19,000   flats




To build these 19,000 flats within 100 weeks ( less than 2 years ) , Maharashtra Government should invite WinSun Construction Technologies of China



 WHY  WinSun  ?


  #   On 29 March 2014 , WinSun constructed TEN , 3D printed houses ( 200 sq meter
          each ) in Shanghai, each costing $ 4,800 ( approx Rs 3 lakh ! )


          THIS WORKS OUT TO RS 150 PER SQ FT  !


#    On 17 July 2015 , using its 3D printing technology , WinSun built a 2 storey villa , in
       just 3 HOURS  !


#    WinSun holds 98 patents for construction materials


#    For 3D printing of houses , WinSun , mostly uses recycled construction materials


#    3D house-printing technology saves,

      *  30% -60 % of building materials

      *  70 % of production time

      *  80 %  of construction cost


#   Egypt Government has placed on WinSun , an order for supplying 20,000 pre-
     fabricated , 3D printed houses


#   In Egypt , WinSun will establish 12 Dream Factories ( to build pre-fabricated houses )
     within 2 years


     These factories will mostly use desert sand as its main construction material , which
     was found ideal for 3D printing of houses !



#   In next 3 years , WinSun will set up ( in JV with local parties ) , similar factories in 20
     countries , including Saudi Arabia , UAE , Qatar , Mexico , S. Korea , Russia , Morocco
     Tunisia , and USA
