Pidilite’s Dr. Fixit Launches Unique Energy Consumption Systems for Buildings

Dr. Fixit, one of the leading waterproofing brands in the country from the house of Pidilite, unveiled its Low Energy Consumption (LEC) systems. Dr Fixit LEC is a green and sustainable waterproofing and insulation system for roofs and walls, based on a layered built up system that permanently water proofs roofs and walls from rain lash, hot and cold temperatures which in turn lead to high energy savings. Dr Fixit LEC system is the ultimate Armour for cool roofs and walls.

With Global temperatures risen significantly over the years, weather elements like sun and rain play havoc with life and durability of concrete construction. The problem gets compounded in urban living spaces which are characterized by concrete construction clusters. With the increasing consumer interest in buying environmentally friendly products and the growing popularity of green building standards, the market for low and zero VOC has experienced growth.

There is an increased demand to have green buildings and structures by using materials that lead to lower consumption of electricity and eventually leading to an important contribution to curb issues highlighting environmental concern. The buildings! structures can use heat insulation coatings on the roofs or the walls. These coatings provide a cooling effect and acts as an insulator, resulting in the reduction of air conditioning loads. This naturally has an impact on the energy conservation which is in turn Eco-friendly.

With Dr. Fixit LEC systems, the amount of heat that is absorbed into the buildings interior is reduced leading to lower energy costs and reduced energy needs. Mr. M B Parekh, Managing Director, Pidilite Industries Ltd., said “We are delighted to introduce Dr Fixit Low Energy Consumption (LEC) system for our valued customers. This trend has just begun in India and has a great potential. And we hope that LEC systems will go a long way in ensuring green homes commercial spaces.”

On the occasion, Pidilite also launched Large Waterproofing Group (LWG). LWG is a technical team to provide any assistance to contractors who undertake large waterproofing projects.

Sanjay Bahadur, Global CEO, Construction Chemicals, Pidilite Industries Ltd, said that “With the launch of LWG from Pidilite the ACE community will get the correct inputs for their construction project for all their waterproofing needs”.

Dr Fixit LEC System is also the fastest way to insulate and waterproof the entire roof. Highly efficient spray technologies and design combined with modern application methods enables saving of 40% time compared to a standard roofing system. Further the company shall offer 25years of guarantee.

Va i-ious initiatives involving the trade and users will be undertaken to establish the winning product proposition of “Eco Friendly and Go-Green Structures.” All trade centric activities are aimed at ensuring excellent visibility for the brand in market place. Similarly, all user centric activities have been planned with the objective of building rapid awareness at all levels and inducing trial among the Architects and Construction Business community

CONTEMPORARY CITY FOR THREE MILLION INHABITANTS

Urban design by Le Corbusier, 1922 Exhibited in 1922 at the Salon d’Automne in Paris, the Contem-porary City for Three Million Inhabitants was Le Corbusier’s first comprehensive urban-planning project. Accompanied by a 100-square-meter diorama, it consisted of a rigidly geometric, centralized orthogonal plan with monumental axes, uniform modern buildings, vast expanses of open space covering 85 to 95 percent of the surface, and a system of highways. The project was seen simultaneously as a breathtaking modern vision and as the destruction of the familiar urban setting. Influence on the project ranged from American gridded cities, Peter Behrens’ work, and Tony Garnier’s Une Cité industrielle (1901–04, 1917; An Industrial Town) to Bruno Taut’s Utopian Die Stadtkrone (1919; The City Crown). By 1922 Le Corbusier was one of the major figures of the Modern movement, and the Contemporary City marked a high point in a period of extraordinary activity. It incorporated two ideas that he had been...

DOM-INO HOUSES

Housing design by Le Corbusier, 1914–15 and later Between 1914 and 1915, Le Corbusier, partly encouraged by his friend Max du Bois, conceived of a standardized system of construction using reinforced concrete, which was to provide the structural basis of most of his houses through the mid-1930s. These were the Dom-ino prefabricated houses with independent skeletons. The frame was to be completely independent of the floor plans of the houses. Derived from the Hennebique frame, it consisted of six thin concrete columns that simply carried two horizontal slabs as the floors. The columns and slabs were connected by staircases. Apart from this structural core of the houses, nothing else was fixed, thus permitting a great flexibility to suit demands on the basis of aesthetics, climate, composition, or view. The floor plan was also extremely flexible, as interior partitions were independent of the grid. This utterly simple and clear “open plan” method did away with load-carrying walls. Suppor...
