why clc light weight bricks use in the construction and how to do market ?

for more information:
http://www.sourceinfratech.com

Why use clc light weight bricks or foam concrete bricks?
Clc is cellular weight blocks where we can use for load bearing structure and frame structure .its a other alternative for red brick and fly-ash bricks.Why

we use clc bricks?
1)Clc is a light weight brick where water absorption is less compare to redbrick and fly-ash brick
2)High thermal insulation
3)Compressive strength is more than other bricks
4)environmental friendly
5)Quantity of cement is less when making a wall why because
6) clc bricks life span is more than other bricks
Clc block size can make according to our requirements
In India generally block can make
Clc Size per cubic meter
4*8*24 83 clc blocks
6*8*24 55 clc blocks
9*8*24 50 clc blocks
If we take one clc block size red bricks comes around for each clc block
4*8*24 7.1
6*8*24 10.6
How we compare clc bricks with red bricks when we meet customer ?
If we take the size 4*8*24
market price now in India is 3500Rs per each cubic meter
Red bricks market price now in India is 2357Rs per each cubic meter its varies city to city .
So the first question comes from customer why i spend more money for clc bricks?

Here is the solution
Take an example:
1 unit wall brick construction with clc and red brick
Clc bricks for 1 unit wall construction red bricks for 1 unit wall construction Clc bricks for 1 unit wall construction Red bricks for 1 unit wall construction 1) clc bricks for 1 unit wall around 75 bricks 1) red bricks for 1unit wall comes comes around 560 bricks 2) quantity of cement and sand requires for motor 1unit wall
cement : 1 bag cement
sand : 4bag sand
price : 300Rs for cement
100 Rs for sand
----------------------------------
Total 400 Rs/-
----------------------------------- 2) quantity of cement and sand requires for motor 1unit wall
cement : 2.5 bag cement
sand : 10 bag sand
price : 625 Rs cement
250 Rs for sand
----------------------------------
Total 875 Rs /-
----------------------------------- 3) Plastering:
½ inch plastering is Enough
Cement : 1.5 bag cement
Sand : 6 bag sand
Price : 450 Rs for cement
150 Rs for sand
----------------------------------
Total 600 Rs/-
----------------------------------- 3) Plastering:
1.5 inches plastering is needed
Cement : 3.5 bag cement
Sand : 14 bag sand
Price : 940 Rs for cement
350 Rs for sand
----------------------------------
Total 1300 Rs/-
-----------------------------------

Total cost for plastering and motor joints For clc bricks
600 + 400 = 1000Rs
Total cost for plastering and motor joints
For red bricks
1300 + 875 = 2175Rs
Red bricks for 1 unit wall price is
4 * 560 = 2240RsClc bricks for 1 unit wall price is
45*75 =3375Rs If we subtract clc price from red brick price
3375
2240
------
1135
Now add plastering and motor joints price
Ie 2175
1135
---------
3310
---------
So at the end of the 1 unit wall construction the price we are spending for red bricks as almost same as clc bricks apart from that contractor can construct the building less time then red brick construction. So finally customer can happy
To get good product in the market to build is home

Note : The above calculation we are giving for construction a building with clc its varies cities and cities .

China to Build First Eco-City

China to build first eco-city
Jean-Pierre Langellier and Brice Pedroletti
Guardian Weekly

Imagine it is 2010. The place is Dongtan, the world's first purpose-built eco-city. It stands in the middle of the marshes at the eastern tip of Chongming, China's third-largest island, at the mouth of the Yangtse river.

None of the buildings is more than eight storeys high. Turf and vegetation cover the roofs, a natural form of insulation that also recycles waste water. The town has six times more space for pedestrians than Copenhagen, one of Europe's airiest capitals. Pollution-free buses, �powered by fuel cells, run between neighbourhoods. An intranet service forecasts travel times and connects people who want to share a car. Traditional motorbikes are forbidden, replaced by electric scooters or bicycles. The roads are laid out so that walking or cycling to work is quicker than driving.

Up to 80% of solid waste is recycled. Organic waste is burned in an incinerator, catering for part of the town's electricity requirements. Other burners consume rice husks, which produce a lot of heat and are plentiful in China. On the outskirts giant windmills, driven by the sea breeze, produce electricity too. Each building is fitted with photovoltaic panels and its own, smaller windmill.

Dongtan stands on the shores of a canal, in the middle of a designated nature reserve with outstanding �biodiversity, and is one of the main attractions for visitors to the international Expo in Shanghai. The �journey to the metropolis, via a huge bridge and tunnel complex, takes only 45 minutes.

Returning to the present day, the Dongtan project is an attempt to solve an increasingly pressing problem. China has so far given priority to the quantity of construction, but now it must focus on quality. This means a radical change in town planning strategy and a switch to sustainable development, even though the country is in the grip of one of the most spectacular migratory movements in the history of mankind. Between now and 2020 China needs to build 400 new towns - nearly 30 a year - to accommodate more than 300 million people from the countryside. Hence the decision to build a model city on Chongming Island.

commissioned two other eco-cities.

It is part of a plan to develop thousands of square kilometres of the mouth of the Yangtse, which includes building a deep-sea harbour for Shanghai 30km out in the East China Sea. This is the biggest single development anywhere in the world.

At present about half a million people live in the district of Chongming, travelling to the outskirts of Shanghai on speedboats and ferries. They occupy two small towns and a myriad of little villages, as yet spared by the building frenzy of neighbouring districts. A motorway, which is often deserted, already crosses the island. Dongtan, which will be built nearby, will have a population of 50,000 to 80,000 by 2010, rising to 500,000 by 2040.

"In 20 years," says Ma Chengliang, the manager of SIIC Dongtan, "the Chinese economy has grown so fast that we are already suffering energy shortages. To maintain our current growth rate, we must opt for sustainable development. In Dongtan we want to demonstrate what can be done in terms of renewable energy, clean transport systems and sustainable lifestyles. The model was designed so that it could be extended to the rest of Chongming, serving as a prototype for the whole country."

Standing on the site of the new town, Alejandro Gutierrez, Arup's senior architect, explains: "Dongtan will be compact, inspired by traditional Chinese towns in which water plays an important part. Social factors are essential. It will have a diverse population, affordable housing, at least 30,000 jobs on the spot, schools and a hospital, to ensure it is not dependent on Shanghai."

The most original feature of Dongtan is its eco-friendly design. It will have an ecological footprint (the total area of land required to sustain an individual) of two hectares per person, three times less than Shanghai, London or Paris.

Dongtan is surrounded by miles of wetland, vital for birds migrating between Australia and Siberia. It is determined to preserve the quality of its air, so motor vehicles must be carbon-neutral and the plans provide for the construction of hydrogen filling stations for fuel cells.

To meet the town planners' requirements, Arup has even designed small, lightweight vehicles that consume little energy and travel almost bumper-to-bumper, taking up little room on the roads. Dongtan aims to be energy self-sufficient, meeting all its requirements with renewable sources - solar, wind and biomass.

However, the design team realises that it will have to overcome many obstacles before achieving its ideal. "Even if, with the right design and materials, you manage to build homes that operate at only two-thirds of current energy levels, individual behaviour may completely upset your plans," says Gutierrez. "That is why we need a combination of rules, outreach and price incentives to educate the occupants and halt excessive consumption."

Once the authorities give the green light to Arup's master plan this year, things should happen quickly, with the town scheduled to be built in less than four years.

So, can we look forward to hundreds or even thousands of Dongtans in other parts of the world? Peter Head, Arup's director, is sure it is possible. The materials and design would be different, but the underlying principles and method would be the same. Providing, he adds, that people believe in this sort of project and support it wholeheartedly, as is the case in China.

A lot in the news recently with the riots in Tibet and the European Union talking a potential opening ceremony boycott (doubt it will happen though). The clock is definetly ticking for Beijing.

There has also been individual atheletes boycoting due to air quality and health risks. for example the favored marathon runner is either not running or only running the 10k because he is worried about the smog damaging his lungs.

My cousin is competing at these olympics and she has been over there a few times to inspect the venues as an ambassator of some sort and she is not worried about these things, but she is not a runner

it should be very interesting indeed. I have an ex girlfriend looking to qualify for the olympic marathon the day before the Boston Marathon. I'll have to ask her about the pollution if she qualifies(outside chance)

Singapore Skyline

Singapore from across the Marina - Performing Arts center and many high-end hotels

Famous Singapore Fountain

Small buildings like this seem endangered. An area has been set aside to ensure that the historic part of Singapore remains

Mile after mile of new residential

This seems to be the "newer" area of Singapore where mass transit doesn't currently reach (but will soon)

The Most Beautiful Courtyard

yajuan — Thu, 30 Aug 2007 05:50:21 +0000

A visit to the Qiao Courtyard in Qiaojiabao Village near Taiyuan City, capital of Shanxi Province, will get you acquainted with the local customs and practices of the central Shanxi area during the late Qing Dynasty and the initial period of the Republic of China (1912-1949).

The courtyard, built during the Jiaqing and Daoguang reign periods of the Qing Dynasty, includes six large compounds, 20 small ones, and 313 rooms, with a total area of over 8,700 sq m. The imposing buildings are compactly distributed and exquisitely structured.

The decorations and material objects are displayed to introduce the time sequqtae, climate and other natural phenomena of the seasons, sacrificial rites, wedding and funeral rites, and life styles during the period. In addition, on display are wooden objects, clothes and ornaments, ceramic wares, calligraphic works and paintings, and handicrafts, bringing to life the local customs and practices of north China.

No it doesn't and that is even more of an issue for them. A single point can be engineered to withstand an earthquake and given the consequences I've no doubt the dam has been designed to withstand any expected earthquake and then some. On the other hand in LA, there are millions of places where this kind of consideration did not or could not happen. One only need note the failures that occured there during the Northridge event that happened there a few years ago.

Wikipedia says:

"Most attempts are made during April and May before the summer monsoon season. A change in the jet stream at this time of year reduces the average wind speeds high on the mountain. While attempts are sometimes made after the monsoons in September and October, the additional snow deposited by the monsoons and the less stable weather patterns makes climbing more difficult."
