The typical assumed building or structural component’s lifespan must also be defined in the property dealing documents with related details and also must be displayed – the year of construction and its estimated period of life span. There should be clear data about the BUILDING STAGES i.e., Order of construction, Excavation and timbering, Foundations, Concrete floors, Reinforced concrete frames, Roofs, Brickwork, Internal fixtures and fittings, Insulation, earthing, Plumbing and wiring, Plastering etc.,
If all data is recorded then it will help to keep a close eye on the quality of the work and pick up problems quickly. So that to follow the Plans and specifications. Finished construction should be protected from the weather. If we spot anything that does not look right, it will bring it up immediately to the builder. It would be better to replace a few bricks that are the wrong color than wait until the house is finished before pointing it out. Most things that go wrong are simply mistakes which the builder would prefer to know about sooner rather than later.

Apartment or independent house? It is an endless debate. There are valid arguments to buttress the claims on both sides. While the jury is still out, there is a growing demand from certain sections of the housing sector, which argue that builders must ensure that the apartments they build should be able to face the vagaries (changes) of time for at least seven-eight decades. But this is almost neglected by everyone including the governments.
It is no secret that economic factors and a fast lifestyle have dealt a death knell for the culture of independent houses in India. As the cost of an independent house is staggering, not many buyers consider the option of going for one now. Land prices have rocketed and made the purchase of a site and construction of a house almost impossible. Cut back to the 1980’s, when the capital was still green, those were the days when the apartment culture had not yet gripped the capital.

Today, the scene is completely different. Not only are concrete blocks mushrooming all over the city, large individual houses are fast disappearing with residents opting to give them up to developers. A
typical apartment complex or gated community comes with clubs, a large community garden with plenty of area for children to play and pathways to walk.
The New Age customers are finding community living more attractive given the nature of facilities offered as well as the ease in tackling maintenance and security.
Almost all typical homebuyers do not have the time or energy to spare to build a house. Building an individual house involves not just designing, but finding the right contractor for the construction. And it doesn’t end there, as sanctions and approvals for utility connections will still have to be tackled. An independent house also has issues of security and maintenance. These can prove a deterrent, especially when apartment complexes and villas with state-of-the-art facilities are available.

The fact that fresh land for individual houses is no more available within the capitals again acts as a dampener. Getting the desired location is a further incentive for homebuyers to opt for gated communities or apartment complexes. After listening to all these arguments, we are left with no option but to go for a flat. But, will the construction last more than 30 years or more ?
There is an important Point – is that unlike independent houses, we are looking at apartments which are unlikely to remain in a perfect state for over 30 years, if they as they are not maintained with due care. “As far as an independent house is concerned, it can be rebuilt to suit changing tastes and requirements, at any point of time, adding that the house can be expanded horizontally if space permits or vertically by adding more floors. These are impossible in a unit in an apartment anywhere.

I consulted many people who have sold their independent houses to move into flats and are now ruing their decision, as the quality of construction of their flats was bad, especially the plumbing and
electricity. In general almost in every constructed flat, within one or two years, plumbing and electrical problems starts which are the major immediate problems for the total constructed building. This reduces the life span of the flat and total building complex.
While there is a growing awareness to keep apartments in a perfect condition, But if we observe, even those who live in flats worth over Rs 1 crore or more do not like to pay regular upkeep charges. Upkeep of buildings involves a lot more than just housekeeping and cursory maintenance. Far from being confined to plumbing and electrical work, maintenance of complexes extends to include a host of items that require a fully functional office and maintenance staff on call round-the-clock.

There is no doubt that given the astronomical land rates nowadays, building an independent house is increasingly becoming tough. However, experts are of the view that concrete apartment buildings in India last only for 30 to 50 years compared to the expectation of 70 to 80 years. The short life span is an economic burden for not only owners and residents but to the nation as a whole. A major factor influencing long-term service life of concrete structures is the nature of weather conditions. The adverse conditions like ground contamination, high temperature, humidity and fluctuating temperatures can cause damage and reduce the life span of a structure.

Calculations significantly affects on maintenance & renovation considerations, especially considering the variation in durability between wood, concrete, and steel and any other material used for construction. We should consider in each and every construction and purchasing of property… Based on these factors the value of the property is based. If we compromise any point then the effect will be on our lives or on our successors and on the tenants, and at the same time near properties and persons nearby the said property. At any time it may give to un recovered situations and losses.
In General the life span decision greatly impacts on the security of the lives, health, Cost or repairs and etc., “For short life-spans, the recurring embodied energy is less than the initial energy and for
long-life buildings (say 100 years), the recurring embodied energy is between two and three times greater.” Therefore, care should be taken to protect living persons lives and the property value in all aspects in our country. The Life span will be on the basis of the environmental impact of the functional unit over variable life spans according to many factors like water, pollution, adulteration of material during the constructions in different stages of construction. It is also depending on the various factors like recycling or reuse of waste material, land filling, especially with wood products, where the life expectancy is commonly 50 to 100 years, there should be some consideration for the
maintenance of such components.

Experts and Engineers declare that 30 and 60 years are the most frequently assumed life spans of the constructed buildings or apartments or houses or sheds or any. Though some studies it may consider as few as 10 to 25 years, or as many as 160 years. We should also consider the environmental effects of various combinations of cladding, window, and roofing systems with 5, 10, 25, 50, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, and 160 year life expectancies. We should also consider the Natural calamities like floods, rains, earth quakes and etc to protect the building or apartment or any.
If you or your family members, relatives, close friends are there in these buildings, what will you do ?
Value and security of the property will be based on the included raw material usage (kg), energy use (MJ), pollutants to water, GHGs (Green house gases), and solid wastes (kg) for various cladding, window frame, and roofing materials with varying life expectancies. Study of building components accounted for solid waste and raw material flows during construction and also renovation. Still, the under representation of inventory flows such as waste water or toxic emissions particles and volatile organic compounds from wood, emissions from the use of energy fuels, release of storm water that has been in contact with wood or irrigation water used to protect wood, and emissions and spillages from machines and vehicles used at the site Material makeup, specifically wood preservatives, has the largest effect on acidification, eutriphication, human toxicity, and photochemical ozone emissions. Wood may leach these chemicals through contact with soil, for example, or emit them when burnt. Further, disposal of wood products is shown to knowingly influence life cycle effects for many wood-based products, which is especially detrimental if wood is land filled. The Importance and target of Life span will impact and is to collect the inputs and outputs for a product or service used in the construction and maintenance of a property. This type of process can be used to calculate
and interpret the potential environmental impacts associated with the functional unit throughout its life span of the property.
If you or your family members, relatives, close friends are there in these buildings, what will you do ?
The categories represented should be as land use, eco-toxicity, human toxicity, photo-oxidant formation, eutrophication, acidification, ozone depletion, depletion of raw materials including fossil fuels, and global warming potential. Global warming potential was clearly the most commonly assessed impact, likely due to the accessible data on embodied energy and carbon of construction materials, and the recent status of global climate change. When considering land use, the building’s life span needed is key variable. Also, end-of-life considerations, such as burning, re-use, or land filling of demolition materials can significantly impact the GHG mitigation and land use efficiency of the structure. Therefore, the need for a land use impact assessment would be determined and based on the system boundaries also. The effects of resource use and emissions on human health, ecosystem quality, etc.

Each and every Construction has to follow the stages of construction in a secured and strict manner. If we ignore those details we are keeping ourselves in very very dangerous situations in the future life. No one will rescue any one or our family members or the tenants. Be careful when purchasing your property. Your all families are going to be buried in future life in the uncontrollable collapsed buildings. As the constructions are weak or life span is near to complete, a small natural disaster may lead to heavy loss which leads to the Heavy National Loss too.
In future total flats in a building and total buildings in a colony are going to collapse or demolished. Because they are based on the life span that they have. This will continue continuously else were all over the country in short future. Because the apartment culture started mushrooming just before THREE decades. And the life span of the appartments are 4 or 5 or 6 decades according to their qualities.

Stages for construction are based on Building, Retaining walls and Subsoil drainage and many. Site works and setting out are the Contractors responsibilities after being given possession and site layout plan and detail drawings are necessary and Clearing the site, Setting out the building, Establishing a datum level. In LEVELING the land surveyor will determine the original ground level for the land and mark a survey peg for drain, pipes, cables and main sewerage treatment plant (MSTP), also the road complying with the Land survey.
Clearing the Site will or May involve – Demolition of existing buildings (by experienced contractor) Grubbing out bushes and trees (by manual or mechanical means, or by specialist for the large tress) Removal of soil to reduce levels following to Building Regulation (sterilizing the top 300 mm to contain plant life and decaying vegetation).,

Topography of the site and some common material on site, removal of tree trunks, grubbing of trees, shrubs and roots, excavator heaping up top soil, Earth work operation site clearing work carried out will also play major role in the life span of the constructions. The surveyor must determine the site boundary of the construction area to avoid trespass to the another construction area. The boundary had to determine Setting out the Site – Establishing a base line from which the whole of the building can be set out. It should Marked on site clearly so that it can be re- established at any time. Using steel tape (30 meters and not stretchable is more suitable) Marked each corner with a stout peg. Checking the right angle and correct lengths is advisable using different methods. It should be as a typical builder square, and there should be Setting out and checking methods for future.
There should be set up profile board – after the main building lines. And should set up clear of the foundations trench positions to locate the trench, foundations and walls, and required at all trench and wall intersections. There should be a typical profile board.

All levels in a building are taken from a fixed point called a ‘datum’.It should establish after the setting out and related to ordnance benchmark. An arrow with a horizontal mark above the arrow. The centerline of the horizontal being the actual level indicated on an ordnance survey maps
Sloping Sites are Three methods in reducing levels: – a. Cut and Fill – usual method, the amount of cut will equal the amount of fill b. Cut – Advantages of having undisturbed soil over the site, but having disadvantages of cost of removing the soil from the site c. Fill – Not to be recommended, deep foundation would be needed, the risk of settlement and the amount of fill should be limited to 600 mm. It should be recorded for future.
Foundation is the base on which a building rests and its purpose is to safely transfer the load of a building to suitable subsoil as to avoid any damage by swelling, shrinkage or freezing of the subsoil.
If you or your family members, relatives, close friends are there in these buildings, what will you do ? Why dont you demand the quality of matirials and manpower and other which were used & know the life span of the property that you are going to construct or purchase ?
Is it not your money, duty & responsibility when purchasing or constructiing ? First know the life span and also the quality of the appartment or building or house.. It is your right to know all.
