How Commercial Buildings are Getting Smarter
Over the last few decades, computer technology has transformed almost every aspect of life. The Consumer Electronics Show (CES) demonstrates the pervasiveness and attraction of the fruits of our technological age, while the International Builders Show (IBS) demonstrates how building design and construction are progressing as a result of technology. On various levels, all people […]
Living in a gated community or a township? Here’s how to stay safe amidst COVID 19!
With the COVID 19 pandemic showing no signs of slowing down and governments easing lockdown restrictions, the number of cases is sky rocketing, filling up hospitals.

Benefits of Rooftop Extensions
In India, roof top extensions weren’t quite popular in the past. They were generally seen as an element to add an aesthetic appearance to a house. Roof top extensions, undoubtedly, add a very aesthetic elegance to any structure. But they serve many more purposes than that like less power consumption, creating more space, providing a […]
Why are the world’s governments paving the way for steel in infrastructure?
More than 50% of the world’s steel production is for the consumption in the construction industry. Buildings, bridges, pipelines, etc, all rely on steel for providing strength and durability to the structure. From increased lifetime of a structure to the better environmental impact and the property of steel to be endlessly recyclable has made it […]
Composites make stronger, better Structures. Here’s why.
In Civil and Structural Engineering, composite structures are typically the ones built with the combination of steel and concrete so that the resulting building component behaves as a single element. Composite construction aims at utilising the best properties of the different materials used and to deliver a structure that is better in all aspects. In […]

Transforming the renewable energy sector with steel
The world is developing at an exponential rate and so does the need for more renewable energy. Meeting this ever-growing need for energy while ensuring sustainability is a challenging task. It requires a great deal of innovation in the way many industries function. Steel is critical for supplying the world with the required renewable energy. […]
Steel Construction: A safe and sustainable approach
Structural steel is by far the best construction material in use. Steel offers architects more design freedom in colour, texture and shape. Its combination of strength, durability, beauty, precision and malleability gives broader parameters to explore ideas and develop fresh solutions. The biggest benefit of steel when building to withstand natural disasters and harsh weather […]
Greener Construction with Steel
With the alarming rate of increase in pollution, it’s high time that we shift to cleaner and greener resources, especially in construction. It is also a major source of pollution, responsible for around 4% of particulate emissions, more water pollution incidents than any other industry, and thousands of noise complaints every year. There are a […]
