high-rise residential buildings. Safety management , Risk analysis.
High-rise structures are also called “vertical cities”, having the potential to decongest urban sprawl. Indian cities are witnessing immense demographic expansion due to migration from surrounding villages, leading to urban sprawl, housing demand, rise in cost of land. Housing has developed into an economy generating industry. The construction projects are one of the most important one which plays a vital role in development of the country. It is estimated that the High-rise (or) multi storey buildings are the most important part of the construction for the greater development. Given this demand, while high-rise residential structures have become a solution in the metropolitan cities, they remain eluded in tier II cities in India. Low-rise or mid-rise high-density dwelling types have developed in these cities. . Construction risks can be minimized only when their cause are identified. The objective of this study was to study the risk assessment in the construction of high rise buildings. This study was carried out based on literature review and a questionnaire survey. Most of the high-rise projects remain as proposals. An investigation in this case study reveal that high rise structures are not preferred due to user perception of insecurity in case of fire and high cost of the building. The paper aims at studying the availability and use of fly ash in various proportions, which can be used in Indian high-rise residential buildings.
