Solutions for a Roof over your Head

The growth of the infrastructure industry in India has fuelled a healthy demand for pre-engineered buildings (PEB). PEB buildings are pre-fabricated steel frames or beams designed and manufactured in the factory of the PEB supplier; and eventually assembled at the site of construction. The steel structures or beams are formed by welding steel plates together. These are then bolted together to form the entire frame of the prefabricated metal buildings.

This new technology is quite prevalent in the west. However, PEB in India has also caught on and is well on the way becoming a standard in Indian constructions; and growing at 30%. One of the pioneers and foremost names in manufacturing companies of PEB is Interarch Buildings. With a presence in India since 1984, Interarch is a most respected PEB manufacturer in the country. Apart from prefab buildings, Interarch is also known for their path-breaking innovation in metal roof and wall systems, under the brand name of TRACDEK. A metal roof is made from metal piece, or tiles; and can be applied over an existing roof. The same material used for metal roofs can be used for siding as well. Interarch’s metal roofing and false ceiling have widespread application in residential and commercial buildings.

The advantages of the metal roofing are:

1. Durability: Metal roofing is far more durable than conventional mortar roofs, sometimes up to 100 years. These can be coated with special paint to minimize fading, shedding dirt and resist the growth of fungus. TRACDEK® from one of the top profile sheeting companies in India, is manufactured in a high quality Galvalume® steel, galvanized steel and aluminum with organic coatings for long life; even in coastal areas where the salty air results in higher corrosion.

2. Metal rooftops with coatings, colors and patterns offer extensive design flexibility. TRACDEK is available in Hi-Rib, Klippon and SS-2000 profiles.

3. There is no denying the strength of metal roofing. It is the most lightweight roofing product - a crucial benefit in seismic areas like India. This also reduces the load on the main PEB structure. TRACDEK® is known for its excellent ability to withstand excessive load.

4. 75% of heat enters a house from the roof and only 25% from the walls due to direct and longest exposure to solar radiation. This heat is absorbed by the roof and the house ceiling that causes the temperature to rise within the house. Consequently, air-conditioning is required to cool down the living space. Metal roofs reflect heat effectively, thus minimizing heat of absorption.  TRACDEK roof systems can be effectively used in combination for optimal thermal characteristics, leading to lowering of air conditioning costs.

5. In addition, metal roofs are fire resistant and environmental friendly. Like all Interarch’s steel buildings, the TRACDEK roof and wall system too is 95% recyclable.

Innovation in technology and design, couple with quality construction has made Interarch one of the top metal construction companies in India. It ranks topmost among the prefabricated structures manufacturer with numerous prestigious projects for satisfied clients.

Earth Quake Resistant Pre Engineered Buildings by Interarch

Interarch Buildings is India’s top PEB manufacturer. The company has the distinction of reshaping the market for pre-engineered buildings. At a time when the logistics and construction industry was governed by traditional methods of building, Interarch was the trailblazer in providing technologically advanced prefabricated metal buildings. From metal ceilings to blinds to entire pre-engineered steel buildings in India. Interarch has been a knowledge and industry leader. The company is also known for its radically progressive metal roof and wall systems. In fact, Interarch’s brand of highly sophisticated advanced roofing system, TRACDEK, finds widespread applications in many pre-engineered buildings across India. Interarch Played an Integral Role in Bringing up the earth quake resistant PEB buildings.

What causes Earthquakes and where they occur?

There are many things which could lead to an Earthquake such as such as underground explosions, movement of magma within volcanoes and impact of large objects with the ground. But generally Earthquakes caused by these are not so highly intensified and rarely cause any significant damage.
But the most abrupt and devastating Earthquakes are caused by movement within the Earth’s crusts. When the rocks break inside and rub against each other they release seismic waves as a result of which the ground starts shaking and tremors occur

Can an Earth Quake Occur Again in Nepal?

When the weight of a building is reduced then the force caused by the
Earthquake affecting the building will also be reduced. Generally Interarch pre-engineered steel buildings are much lighter than reinforced concrete buildings thereby reducing the Earthquake effect on the buildings in the same ratio.
Also steel is ductile material and can take 18 times more deformation than concrete. This ductile property of steel enables it to absorb the forces and it can take in deformation to a greater extent beyond their flexibility behavior. Under repeated exposure to loads, reinforced concrete’s single direction and limited energy absorption ability diminishes and fails after eachexposure and breaks appear without any deformation. In steel buildings on the other hand, when
elastic boundaries are exceeded, or when the building is exposed to loads more than expected, steel construction members first deform thanks to their high capacity of deformation. Energy is absorbed during deformation and the building remains erected; to ensure this deformation of building members, loads are distributed among beams and columns. It is carefully considered that beam-column connections have the sufficient moment capacity to transfer loads in steel constructions.

Flexibility & Quality Buildings by Interarch

The system can be adapted to any building layout ,International Quality, insulation, proper acoustic and galvanized steel structure ensure the finished product has un-matched finish in comparison to any buildings methodology.

·         No site space required for fabrication & storage of Raw Material

·         Permanent in Nature & Safe: the structure is fire, termite and earthquake resistant

·         Low Cost & Aesthetic in Look: the buildings are cheaper than RCC building if you compare the total file cycle of the building 

Interarch Buildings is the single largest turnkey PEB supplier in India. It is the foremost company to bring in internationally-acclaimed PEB know-how to Indian shores, and has successfully delivered more than 3000 pre-fabricated metal buildings in India.
