MUD BLOCK STRUCTURES
Unburnt sun-dried bricks for walls.
Economical
One side of wall is terracotta tile to make exterior wall water resistant
Fly ash bricks for columns and bars
Bamboo panelled doors and window shutters
IPS flooring with coloured oxide
Foundation- un-coursed rubble masonry with boulder murrum filling is laid to prepare a flat
ground.
Mud block wall is rain proof and rodent proof. No need for any other binding
material
No steel and wood is used for roofing. The roof consists of a series of arches to
be placed as a formwork from the conical tiles made out of burnt clay inserted
into one another
10. WATTLE AND DUAB UNIT
Cement is used as stabilizer.
Foundation based on stilts and random rubble masonry.
Flooring of verandah made from locally available wood.
Columns constructed using stabilized rammed earth block technique employing ‘ram
rod’ technique.
Walls made of bamboo mats plastered with mud or lime mortar.
CGI sheet roofing over space frame truss instead of wood. Bamboo CGS can be used.
Roof water harvesting shows syntax water tank connected to a cost effective
sanitation model.
The structure is totally earthquake resistant as vertical and horizontal bands are
provided.
ASSEMBLING THE STEEL OR WOODEN FRAME WORK FIXING BAMBOO NET ON WALL
TO HAVE VERTICAL REINFORCEMENTS, PVC
PIPES ARE PLACED AROUND THEM AND
CONCRETE IS POURED.
11. BRICK PANEL HOUSE
Use of brick panels for roofing.
Prefabricated brick panel and partially pre-cast joists require burnt clay bricks, cement,
sand, coarse aggregate and reinforcing steel as major raw materials.
No major plant, equipment and machinery is required.
The brick panels are durable, leak-proof, fire-resistant, thermal-resistant, less noisy in
rains and provide vertical expansion.
They are very cost-effective and generate employment opportunities in rural areas for
masons/labour.
½ brick walling and brick column – Cost effective as it is
used in between columns.
Filler slab – Reduce the cost of RCC.
Exposed brick work – Save plastering costs.
Pre-fab panel roofing – saves on shuttering costs.
Hollow wall construction – provide thermal insulation.
Brick jallie – saves on cost of window.
Exposed brick parapet.
12. RAT TRAP BOND CONSTRUCTION
Random rubble arch foundation
Rat trap bond wall that saves 25% bricks and cement.
Brick window jallies
Filler slab roof
