The Mivan technology is one such approach that is used by many builders in European and Gulf countries. In India, the aluminium framework technology makes a difference between quantity and quality and is yet to gain traction and get interested of the home buyers.
To take a step towards a better and sustainable approach to project building, the builders need to explain it to the buyers and answer all their concerns regarding the same. The buyers also need to have faith in the builders and be open to the changes and new technologies in the real estate industry.
As Mivan technology involves the aluminium framework, it has many benefits. The builders need to explain it to the buyers that the strength and life of an aluminium framework are longer and the walls, the beams, and the columns are hence stronger. It also reduces the time of completion by 20 percent.
In the research publication released, the researcher highlights that the time is taken and the cost involved in completing the project using Mivan technology is less than the traditional approach that is being currently adopted to build the house.
To build the framework using Mivan Technology, the excavation of the site takes 38 days, and the RCC work took 400 days. For the traditional approach, the excavation takes 37 days, 348 days of RCC work, 150 days of the brickwork, 120 days of ceiling POP, 135 days of internal plaster and 90 days of external plaster.
Advantages of Mivan Technology:
- Cost-effective
- Shorter construction period
- Minimum wastage
- No prior skill is required
- The end finish is supreme
- The design can be customized according to the needs of the buyer
- Seismic resistant
- Disadvantages of Mivan technology:
- Weather changes can cause adverse effects
- The concrete structure can show some cracks that would require fixing up.
- Once made, the modifications are not possible
- Cost reduction only works for a bulk or big project
- Proper planning is required
- The heat of hydration owns to the shear walls
