Programs
Site Demo
The main objective of site demo is to show the masons working at site the correct method of constructing different elements of a building. A small group of masons, working at the site and neighbouring sites are invited and they are explained about the good construction practices and the literature in vernacular languages are provided to them. The demo will also include information on the ill effects of certain deleterious materials in sand and metal as well as adding excess water. The masons are taught practically about testing the cohesion of concrete using a simple field test. The field tests to ascertain the quality of sand, metal and brick are carried out at site which helps masons understand better.
