Performance Based Light-weight Materials for Structural Applications

Abstract

As Pakistan is a growing country, rapid industrialization and urbanization is taking location at an incredibly faster tempo. The towns are becoming large urban conglomerates with an urban sprawl ranging as much as a 1000 sq.km. This urban sprawl places undue burden on land and a prime portion of land is lost to house dwellings and commercial institutions; so restricted land is available for construction. To tackle this hassle, there's an expanded call for excessive-upward push buildings; but developing taller has its own disadvantages; several of them are improved price and complex design. as a result, building design Economization plays an important role in maximizing the reliability, cost performance and environmental sustainability of constructed facilities. additionally, due to numerous steps of construction enterprise, its complicated and extensive structure, errors, and reworks often might show up. As such, BIM (Building Information Modelling) is regarded as a beneficial tool in minimizing the waste, reducing the chances of blunders, increasing the collaboration between different construction sections, and improving the efficiency of building construction. The focus of this project is to look for a more optimized and economized design for the subject excessive rise building by using ETABs.
