  2. The Future of Sustainable Construction • When we are considering the future of sustainable construction in a terrain like Pondicherry, • Particularly a Marriage Hall construction in Pondicherry, the first thing that comes to mind is the soil condition in Pondicherry which is red earth with a mix of silty and sandy soils, pebbles and clays. . • Pondicherry is also one of the erstwhile French colonies in India that sports several heritage structures, apart from being a planned city and home for the Aurobindo Ashram. www.jenomaran.in

  3. Sustainable community building • Every building does create an impact on the sustainability of its immediate surroundings as well as the global environment. • There are several components of the construction and design • process that call for choices to be made. • These choices in turn can make a positive or negative contribution to the sustainability of the building such as a Marriage Hall construction in Pondicherry that is constructed. www.jenomaran.in

  4. Major attributes of a sustainable community building • In designing a sustainable community building such as a marriage hall, the ceiling of each floor is higher than what is normal for homes or apartments. • The structural design of the construction should factor in the constant load as well as the variable load. Exceeding the desired specifications by at least 10% is always desirable as compared to pitching below the specifications. Similarly, • While constructing a community space like a marriage hall, adequate • provision should be made for potential floods and salt spray from the abutting sea.. www.jenomaran.in

  5. Material selection • The choice of steel, cement, and coarse/fine aggregate should be of the finest quality and grade since the life and safety of the building will largely depend on this. • Once the concrete is poured for the slabs, columns, and beams proper grouting and curing should be ensured for the stipulated period of time before commencing brickwork, flooring, and other activities. • Generally, most builders tend to choose better than the best grade of materials available in the market since marriage halls take the maximum load when occupied and drop right back to near zero when empty. www.jenomaran.in

  6. Advanced technology • With the advancement in technology modern-day builders and architects have access to a wide range of tools . • materials to ensure that the buildings constructed by them can survive the Test of time and stand tall for future generations to enjoy. www.jenomaran.in
