INTRODUCTION
• Building construction is an ancient human activity. It began with the purely
functional need for a controlled environment to moderate the effects of
climate. Constructed shelters were one means by which human beings were
able to adapt themselves to a wide variety of climates and become a global
species.
The history of civil construction was began from the period of Primitive
human.
From the protection against cold, rain,
heat, etc they made “cave” as their
shelter.
Today, we have every comfort and facility, but we have to face the future
upcoming challenges as the shortage of land, etc
