Adjoining Structures, Foundation

design, Roofs and Floors and

Staircases should be considered.
Cover the details about the type of
construction. Building should
have concrete columns. Make
rectangular blocks with gaps in
between. Control on openings in
wall. Use horizontal or vertical
beam to prevent walls & roof
from collapse. use Braced frames
to resist sideways forces on
buildings. place Rubber bearings
between the bottom of a building
and its foundation. These are
designed to be stiff and strong.
Vertical reinforcement should be
made.
 It should be
placed on
elevated land
or stilt. Use
non-water soaking material like mortar. Install backflow
devices, including one-way and ordinary valves, on sewer
lines and floor drains. These devices prevent sewage
and/or storm water from being forced back into the
facility. Use dry or wet proofing method in home, make
an uplifted
boundary
around the
house
to prevent
water entering.
 Use Fire sprinklers and
smoke detectors fire proofing
materials using non-
combustible construction
materials such as metals,
concrete, masonry, clay, sand,
glass, cork, ceramics, etc. keep
fire extinguishers use blocks,
putty, sleeves, caulking,
sealants, Controlled openings
for access and ventilators
should be present, use proper
insulated wires and
fuse/M.C.B. to prevent
short circuiting.
 House should be aerodynamic. Earth sheltered construction is generally more
resistant to strong winds than standard construction. Reinforced concrete is a strong,
dense material that, if used in a building that is designed properly, can withstand the
destructive power of very high winds, high-speed debris. It should also be flood
proof. Avoid overhangings which increase the pressure during high speed winds.
Foundation should be deep and strong. Roof should be joint with connecting straps.
Building must be symmetric and on flat base.
Avoid buildings
to be made on
slope of
mountain.
Foundation
should be deep
and strong.
House should be
uplifted for less
force exertion
which helps in
saving the
building during
fall of debris.
