Use the most economical building materials such as bricks and concrete,
Shelter is one of the most basic needs of human development,
when the materials used tend to be expensive automatically,
the price paid for construction also tends to become very expensive.
Development at present is focused on cost-effective construction using various building materials and technologies.
Polished wood veneer
LVL provides a stable, high-performance alternative to solid wood structural systems that is lighter and stronger than traditional alternatives, faster and easier to install, enhances productivity,
and reduces molding costs.
As they are composite in nature, they are less likely to warp, warp, bend or shrink.
Automatically aerated concrete
AAC is a lightweight, precast foamed concrete building material suitable for the production of concrete masonry units such as blocks.
It has improved thermal efficiency and superior fire resistance, and it helps reduce solid waste during use,
as it is lighter in weight and larger. An excellent material for sound insulation and acoustic insulation.

During this lockdown, people have changed their view of how different materials can be used in different ways.
Vikram Dhawan and his brother, who runs a cardboard factory in Rajasthan,
also wanted to see how their business could help in this crisis.
So they got the idea of inexpensive, recyclable cardboard beds coated in a protective,
water-repellent material that enables quick and easy clean-up.
It’s also strong with up to 300 lbs, yet light to lift.
Lightweight transport concrete
These are materials that help transmit light and that act as a transparent material,
and transmit light to a thickness of about 20m.
This can be used to give natural light, as it is a mixture of optical fibers and concrete,
and it also damages the high compressive strength of concrete,
and the blocks can also include built-in thermal insulation.
Self-healing concrete
Concrete can withstand compressive forces well but not tensile forces, it is vital concrete,
Created just like regular concrete, but with additional “healing agents” mixed in.
The healing bacteria will be intact throughout the mixing process and in the event of cracks,
The water seeps in, dissolving and revitalizing the biological limestone to eventually heal the cracks.
bamboo
This material has been known since Asian times and was mainly used in rural areas.
Now, it is used in different areas but especially earthquake prone areas as it has great strength and fire resistance as well.
Before choosing bamboo, it is very important to treat it with a good amount of chemicals so that it is prevented from termites.
straw roofing
It is a material that has been in use since ancient times, and is readily available and light in weight,
making it easy to transport.
It also absorbs heat easily because it reduces heat loss and provides a pleasant indoor climate.
These materials also reduce labor costs.
natural stone
As we all know, man-made product such as stone and concrete molding are readily available,
But natural stone is a completely natural product that was extracted from the earth and processed.
It is not only used in building facades but also in kitchen panels, storage spaces, etc.,
They are excellent insulators and, once invested, will last forever.
