The increasing demand for housing, coupled with wide concerns over the need to improve performance, has created a powerful case for use of offsite technologies. However, to date, the industry has been slow to innovate and adopt offsite technologies, which has inhibited achieving a step improvement in productivity and quality of housing supply.

Several government-backed reports have suggested that Modern Methods of Construction (MMC) could be part of the solution for addressing the under-supply of housing and wide concerns over the need to improve performance.

So, how can the practice of Offsite-MMC be made easy & common to all??

Peoples’ perceptions should be challenged

idea posted by Anjaneyula Reddy Construction-Heavy, DLF

There are significant perceptions against the take-up of Offsite-MMC among housebuilders and institutions. Smaller housebuilders were even more reluctant. It was felt that Offsite-MMC techniques need to be tested and demonstrated as providing as good or better performance than traditional methods.

Providing a central site with practical examples of using Offsite-MMC techniques should be very helpful. Institutions were required to develop a consistent and objective approach to the use of offsite techniques.

IT IS A STUPENDOUS IDEA.INDIANS ARE A RELUCTANT BREED BUT ONCE THEY UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT  THEY GO PSYCHO ABOUT IT.OFF SITE CONS. IS GOING INTO THEIR HEADS ASON DATE VISUALISING THE CONCEPT OF RE WALLS ,RF PRECAST BEAMS IN INFRASTRUCTURE,IT ISN,T THAT PEOPLE ARE NOT RECEPTIVE TO THE IDEAS BUT THEIR IS A LACK OF OVERALL ENTERPRENEUR SHIP IN CIVIL ENNGG.I RECALL HAVING READ ABOUT PAVER BLOCKS WAY BACK IN 1985,BUT THE CONCEPT TOOK ALMOST MORE THAN FIFTEEN YEARS TO TRICKLE TO THE GRASS ROOT LEVEL.USE OF FLY ASH BRICKS IS BECOMING COMMON.PREFAB WINDOWS AND DOORS ARE BEING ADOPTED IN CONSTRUCTION ON A LARGE SCALE.ONLY THING NOW REQUIRED IS EXTENSIVE USE OF PREFAB INTERLOCKING WALL PANELS,ETC. AND THE OUTER STRUCTURE .REST OF THE THINGS WILL FOLOW.

Joint promotion forum

idea posted by aniruddha Construction-Specialty, contech

Every new idea has to be promoted by a proper forum. Promotion strategy has to be drafted. People the end user should be made aware about the pros & cons of new technolgy.

This can done by organising seminars and discusion forums. Organising study tour to some industrialised countries where precast is way of construction.

 We cant expect somebody to make million dollars worth of decisions without knowing anyting about the product. But at the same time nobody can stop an idea whose time is due.

Precast will revolutionise the way things will be build

Collabaration with top Mnc's in india

idea posted by VIMALAN DIRECTOR, VIRGIN ENGINEERS

Eventhough india has so much wealth, our government doesn't have that money to allocate money for development of construction especially in this field.Bcoz it needs mass project with higher contractual value,so we have to go for collabaration with foreign MNC'S to develop this field,already we are doing in a small manner,let's hope we will achieve in next decades.
