CLEANER & SAFER CONSTRUCTION PRACTICES

The composition of construction waste predominantly encompasses dust and debris, alongside diverse building materials like Silica, Cement, and Timber dust, as well as various Ferrous Metals and their residues. This amalgamation of materials poses formidable health hazards, particularly through the dispersion of construction-related dust particles, contributing to the growing urban air pollution plaguing Indian cities.

In our contemporary approach as architects, we are dedicated to conserving and promoting sustainability and environmental awareness for the benefit of future generations. Architects and construction professionals must strategically employ measures to mitigate dust accumulation, such as erecting elevated site boundaries to confine dust within construction areas, which is especially vital in densely populated zones. This containment technique is highly effective amid ongoing construction adjacent to residential and commercial hubs, preventing dust dispersion beyond the site boundaries.

Simultaneously, architects must also adeptly utilize water around the construction site, emerging as a natural tool to suppress dust particles, effectively reducing dust pollution and preserving local air quality. These proactive measures proficiently manage dust accumulation and its associated environmental impacts, showcasing architects' commitment to fostering cleaner and safer construction practices.
