So, probably if this goes into mass production from the proto-type stage, costs will come down.

Both the faculty that are working on this project: Dr. Devdas Menon and Dr. Meher Prasad are some of the finest faculty at IIT-Madras. I know both of the personally. What I hear from my friends who worked with them is they are two of the best researchers and industrial consultants from IIT-Madras.

Dr Devdas Menon's website.
http://www.devdasmenon.com/about.html

His philosophy lectures on life are very popular at IIT-M. He has written an excellent book called "Stop Sleep Walking through Life". Some excellent article written by him are here:

India has a severe housing shortage problem, which is well known. In particular, there is a need to address the shelter needs of the lower income groups and their aspirations. The challenge is to make these aspirations a reality, by providing for an affordable solution. Ideally, the solution should be scalable - to reach the masses - and should be quickly built, and at the same time addresses issues of sustainability and quality. Clearly, we need a 'game changer' in the housing industry. (In pics: the six- lakh home from IIT Madras)

We believe that the technology proposed by IIT Madras, and demonstrated recently by the construction of the 'GFRG demo building', has the potential to meet this challenge of providing rapid affordable mass housing.

Advantages over conventional buildings:

- High speed of construction: GFRG demo building with four flats in two storeys (total 1981 sq.ft.) built within a month!
- Less built-up area for the same carpet area: wall panels are only 124mm thick.
- Less embodied energy and carbon footprint: significant reduction in use of cement, sand, steel and water; recycling of industrial waste gypsum.
- Lower cost of structure: savings in materials; no plastering.
- Lower building weight (panels weigh only 43 kg/m2), contributing to savings in foundation and reduction in design for earthquake forces, particularly in multi-storeyed construction.
- Buildings up to 8-10 storeys can be designed using this load-bearing system, without the need for beams and columns.
- Excellent finishes of prefabricated GFRG panels - used for all the walls, floors and staircases, with minimal embedded concrete: no need for additional plastering.

The 'model housing apartment', comprising four flats in a two-storeyed building, has been constructed inside the IIT-M campus within a month at a finished cost that works out to Rs. 1250 per sq. ft. (including excellent finishes). The 'GFRG demo building' was inaugurated today by Sri TKA Nair, Advisor to Honourable Prime Minister of India, in the presence of Prof. Bhaskar Ramamurthi, Director, IIT Madras.
