CONVENTIONAL BUILDING MATERIALS ARE:
• Energy intense • Demand is growing • Materials like river sand & water is scarce • Cost’s spiraling up • Increases CO2 emission & impact on environment • Construction is time consuming
Therefore , there is a need for an alternative building materials & fast construction methods for housing

AN INTRODUCTION
• GFRG/ Rapid wall is load bearing pre-fabricated walling panel. This is suitable for rapid mass scale building construction was originally developed and used since 1990 in Australia. • GFRG/ Rapid wall is manufactured using Gypsum as
a core material , which is generated as by product in the process of manufacturing fertilizers • GFRG/ Rapid wall is manufactured at RCF , Mumbai
and FACT , Kochi. • GFRG/ Rapid wall is suitable for load-bearing ( up to
10 storied ) applications and as hybrid Construction in multi- storey buildings.

![Page 22: Glass Fiber Reinforced Gypsum (GFRG)](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042505/55a0f5511a28abce4f8b46f5/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
BENEFITS
• Very fast construction• Reduced hassles of construction with less materials • Saving in transport cost of sand, bricks/concrete
blocks, granite metal, cement, steel, water, scaffolding & shuttering materials • Strong & quality construction • Less number of workers • Less overhead cost & less project time • No problem of disposal of waste / debris • Quick turnover with many fold reinvestment per
annum bringing more profit
![Page 23: Glass Fiber Reinforced Gypsum (GFRG)](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022042505/55a0f5511a28abce4f8b46f5/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
BENEFITS
• More carpet area (8-10% more) & superior building will bring more return
• Without extra cost, green building/eco-friendly housing can be given to customers
• Earthquake resistant, Fire Proof and other disaster resistant bldg at no extra cost. In conventional const. requires 15-20% additional cost
• High thermal efficiency of Rapidwall provides more comfortable indoor
• Less recurring cost for cooling or heating of indoor space • Less maintenance cost• No wastage as even cut pieces of door/window
openings can be used for parapet or other uses

BENEFITS
• Rapid construction will help in rehabilitation scheme /rebuilding projects of unsafe buildings as dwellers can get back fast > builders get more FSI benefits • Fast construction will help to rehabilitate displaced
families from various infrastructure projects • Lightweight and rapid construction will help to put
up additional storey over existing buildings within no time, will be an opportunity to builders / customers • Single storey to multi-storey construction• Use of panel in combination with concrete and
steel as composite material enhances the strength and value of both RW panel and RC

BENEFITS
• Can use as walling for RCC framed construction & save costs, cement plastering time etc & reduce total self weight/ dead weight which will educe foundation cost , size of RCC columns and beams > save money • Can re-use panel whenever Rapidwall buildings are
demolished • Since free from corrosion , in coastal region as well
as metro like Mumbai RW Building will become attractive to people and RW bldg will be much more durable than concrete structure• When required specially, as per structural design,
double or triple panel can be used

BENEFITS
• Ideal for large compound wall/security wall for campuses, free economic zones, to separate rail corridor etc. • While making more profit, can also contribute to the
environment and climate change (high selling point by builders/developers) • Help to conserve energy, scarce material like water
and river sand and reduce pollution • Modern & hi-tech superior material. Opportunity to
achieve world class construction & to begin organised & industrialised housing construction • Most reliable product with assured quality & strengt

BENEFITS
• Rapidwall can be used as the basic structure for low income, middle income & high income, rich or affluent segment; finishing work to their desire & affordability & wealth
• Opportunity to upgrade the skills of existing construction workers
• Simultaneous construction of same type of buildings at various sites & places can increase volume of work/turnover to any extent
• Teaming up of Architects, Structural Engineers, & Builders utilising the advantage and benefits of Rapidwall & Rapid Construction system can make profit, help deliver mass housing fast & contribute to the transformation.
