Realignment Engineering
Titled? We can realign it…..
Realignment of building guarantees an economically viable construction
Realignment Engineering in construction is applied when a building bends or inclines from its vertical position. This type of settlement of buildings or extensions happens mainly due to weak foundations, poor compression, shallow surface soil, water runoff, and decaying of organic materials. This happens mainly when buildings are constructed on reclaimed land without proper consolidation.
In this case, the building was located on the banks of ‘Chilavnoor’ lake and was part of the villa project. The land was reclaimed and with an inferior foundation design, the building had unequal settlement forcing the owner to sell off the property at a throwaway price as the previous owners presumed it to be irreparable. This building was rectified and handed over with the assured warranty.
Technology Embedded Construction
Project Type: ReAlignment Engineering
Client: Mr. Prateek Kumar
Location: Chilavanoor, Ernakulam, Kerala
Problems faced: Water percolation and logging due to the uneven settlement of the building situated on the banks of Chilavnoor lake making it uninhabitable.
Brief Description: In this project, this building; villa part of a gated community located on the banks of Chilavnoor lake was in a dilapidated condition and hence uninhabitable due to water logging and percolation. This building was realigned with a new foundation along with a retaining wall on the lake side and was made into an inhabitable state. The building was also lifted to ensure the forthcoming effects of global warming being on the banks of a lake.
