Now-a-days, the rising cost of building materials for construction purposes is a factor of great concern. The price of building materials is rising day by day. Now, most of the researchers are paying much attention on the suitable materials which can reduce the cost of construction as well as increase the strength properties of concrete. Mainly gravel and sand are used in the preparation of conventional concrete. While the use of an agricultural by-product i.e. coconut shell as a partial replacement with conventional coarse aggregates is expected to serve the purpose of encouraging housing developers in building construction. Environmental impact …
Mudflow Disaster Damage Job Opportunity, Disrupt Social Life And Settlement, Thus Requiring Resettlement. Need To Understand Whether Physical Condition Of Resettlement Is In Accordance With Background And Housing Preference Of Victim, Due To Significant Differences Of Housing Design. Aspects Studied Were Characteristic Of Resettlement, Physical Condition Of House And Socio-Economic Mobility. Research Was Done Using Qualitative Method. Technique Of Data Collection Was Used Retrospective Interviews And Observation. This Research Result Indicates That Most Participants Experienced Conformity In House Physical Condition And Socioeconomic Mobility. Reason Of Unconformity Condition Is Housing Facility Which Has Not Meet Housing Standard., Gitanjali Biranga, S V. . Admane, S S. Shinde

Energy efficiency has nowadays become one of the most challenging tasks and this has boosted research on fresh fields, such as Ambient Intelligence. Energy consumption in the housing and tertiary sectors is especially high in developed countries. There is a great potential for energy savings in these sectors. Energy conservation measures are developed for newly constructed buildings and for buildings under restoration. However, to achieve a significant diminution in energy consumption apart from the standard energy-efficiency methods, pioneering technologies should be implemented, including renewable energy. Now, buildings are increasingly anticipated to meet higher and more complex performance requirements. Among these …
