POINTS TO PONDER It is "Ravan Dahan" time again... good that this day comes again and again every year. Festivities- there are!!!! This year lets resolve to bring festivities within us... Let us resolve to kill all the Ravans inside us.. The "Ravan" of anger, greed, jealousy, apathy, laziness, carelessness, vices and addictions, chalta hai attitude.... It is strange how easy it is for us to pick up these vices.. at times even we don't realize how they become a part of our lives, even without our knowledge, absolutely effortlessly...no one ever teaches us to be bad.. yet we learn them. In fact everyone teaches us to be good and good only... but it is so hard to let goodness run in our blood...it really takes a lot of effort. Let us learn to practice goodness and consciously not to pick up evils.. then it will be Diwali all along...

Note : Editorial team's decision will be final.
TECHNOLOGY Prefab Structures This is a new technology in construction by using 'Prefab Structures' which is adopted by our NIPRO Shimizu, Shirwal Site. The initial cost of this may be higher, but the material can be reused at least up to 4 times. Plus, very low maintenance and replacement is required. In the long run therefore, it becomes very cost effective.
3. Other Advantages – e)The structures are light, thereby require minimal foundation. They can be erected on any firm base or on stilts.
Advantages of the Prefab Structure:
f) Prefab shelters help to provide instant accommodation with better living conditions in projects and other townships.
1. Fast Track Construction – The prefab shelters are easy to installation and erection.
g) Excellent surface finish – takes all decorative treatments.
a) Tongue and groove joining system allows faster construction
h) Excellent thermal and sound insulation properties.

ARCHITECTURAL WONDER CN Tower, Toronto, Canada The CN Tower inspires a sense of pride, inspiration and awe for Canadians and tourists alike. However, its origins are firmly rooted in practicality. In 1972, Canadian National (CN) set out to build a tower that would solve the communications problems, serve as a world class entertainment destination, and achieve international recognition as the world's tallest tower. HIGHLY PRACTICAL The Tower's microwave receivers are located 338 m (1,109 ft) above the ground in the radome (the donut-shaped collar at the base of Sky Pod). The important VHF, UHF and television equipment intrinsic to the Tower's purpose as a broadcast transmission facility are located here. The transmission equipment, although powerful, is extremely sensitive. The Radome, designed to protect it from the elements, is a Tefloncoated fiberglass-rayon fabric which can hold the weight of an average adult male yet measures only 1/32 of an inch. Its balloon-like shape results from inflating the skin to five times its normal size then maintaining constant pressure. BREAKING NEW GROUND The construction of this building was path breaking as never before had anyone been faced with the task of designing a base so far into the ground and they came up against many construction challenges unique to this project. They removed 56,234 metric tonnes (62,000 tons) of earth and shale before pouring a thick concrete and steel foundation 6.71 m (22 ft)

deep on a base of hand-and-machine-smoothed shale. Supporting the World's Tallest Building is a tall order and by the time it was finished the y-shaped foundation contained 7,046 cubic meters (9,200 cubic yards) of concrete, 453.5 metric tons (500 tons) of reinforcing steel and 36.28 metric tons (40 tons) of thick, tensioning cables. The thoroughness and speed with which the foundation was laid is noteworthy. The complete foundation was in place just four months after the first spade of earth had been turned. BUILDING A SEVEN-STOREY BUILDING AT 1,100 FEET In August1974, workers began building the Tower's crowning glory, the SkyPod, a 7-storey building that would eventually house 2 observation decks, a 360째 Revolving Restaurant (Horizons), a glass floor and various technical areas. This construction in the sky involved lifting 318 metric tons of steel and wood brackets up the sides of the Tower using 45 hydraulic jacks and miles of steel cable. To build the observation level, workers bolted brackets to tensioned steel bars and placed concrete in the wooden frames, then placed a 3-ft.high compression ring around the outside. The radome (the donut-shaped collar at the base of SkyPod) protects the Tower's sensitive microwave equipment and is essential to its intrinsic purpose as a broadcast transmission facility. All of the important VHF, UHF and television equipment is located here. Incoming signals are monitored and fed to the antenna for transmitting. The radome is designed to protect this equipment from the elements but still enable it to receive transmissions.
