Technical Spotlight: Sunita Hydrocolloids Pvt. Ltd.
     
  Interarch is engineering, manufacturing and delivering the first Guar Gum Buildings Project in India, till now no project has been delivered with Pre-Engineered technology in this industry. Till date all construction in this process industry have been delivered in RCC only due to complexity of the buildings but for the first time after complex engineering and innovative design Interarch has been awarded the project of new manufacturing plant of Sunita hydrocolloids at Jodhpur, Rajasthan

This building will be utilized as a process plant for making Guar Gum powder. There are 6 different units or towers in this project. Each tower has a 3 level Mezzanine floor with deck panel with floor opening for equipment pipeline.

Total height of each tower is 15.3 M. The most important aspect of this project is that in this project all the towers will be covered by a single shed of 33M clear span and a clear height of 23M.

Interarch further connected all the towers internally by walkway thereby giving it a one point access. One can travel through all the towers & floors.

Industrial louvers have also been installed for proper ventilation. Each wall has a Liner panel with insulation.

Each floor is designed for Static as well as Dynamic loading that to without Cross Bracing and all Mezzanines with Bi-directional force transmission with Mezzanine beam.
This project is designed according to the latest IS design code (IS 800:2007) with consideration given to all the geographical data like wind velocity, seismic zone as per IS standard for particular site.

Interarch Contribution to Environment: Goals of Green Buildings
     
  Green building brings together a vast array of practices, techniques, and skills to reduce and ultimately eliminate the impacts of buildings on the environment and on human health. It often emphasizes taking advantage of renewable resources, e.g., using sunlight through passive solar, active solar, and photovoltaic techniques and using plants and trees through green roofs, rain gardens, and reduction of rainwater run-off. Many other techniques are used, such as using wood as a building material, or using packed gravel or permeable concrete instead of conventional concrete or asphalt to enhance replenishment of ground water.

While the practices, or technologies, employed in green building are constantly evolving and may differ from region to region, fundamental principles persist from which the method is derived:
Siting and Structure Design Efficiency, Energy Efficiency, Water Efficiency, Materials Efficiency,
Indoor Environmental Quality Enhancement, Operations and Maintenance Optimization, and
Waste and Toxics Reduction. The essence of green building is an optimization of one or
more of these principles. Also, with the proper synergistic design, individual green building technologies may work together to produce a greater cumulative effect.

Time comparison between Pre-Engineered Buildings & Conventional method of Construction

Time & Schedule Comparison between Pre-engineered steel building and conventional method of construction: For a 50000sqft warehouse or factory building: (Does not include foundations and other associated works)



Activity Conventional RCC / Site fabrication system
(A)		 Pre-engineered steel Building system.
(B)		 Time Saving
(A-B)
Finalization of Building concept and layout 4 weeks 2 weeks - with inputs from PEB company. 2 weeks
Preparation of approval drawings. 2 weeks 2 weeks Nil
Preparation of BOQ & fabrication / site execution drawings 6 weeks 2 weeks 4 weeks
Sourcing of material 6 weeks Nil with existing plant inventory. 6 weeks
Actual Fabrication / Construction at site/plant 10 weeks at site 6 weeks under controlled plant environment. 4 weeks
Final Site execution 14 weeks 10 weeks 4 weeks
Total Schedule 42 weeks 22 weeks 20 weeks

 
 
For example if the rent on warehouse is approximately Rs.10/Sqft / Month
By adopting a Pre-engineered steel construction method the owner can get benefited by:
50000Sqft x Rs.10/Sqft x 5months (20 weeks) = Rs.25,00,000/- approximately
There will be some deduction in terms of interest on early investment but it will be neg-
ligible in comparison to the overall earning. Similarly for any manufacturing process, the increment in terms of early return on investment can be calculated based on the input
cost, product cost and margins on sales price.
The above schedule may vary depending upon the complexity and other projects requirements however the overall saving in time remains approximately in tune of 30 to
40 % as compared to any other method of construction.

Customer Testimonial: Madhu Hydrocolloids Pvt. Ltd.
