Foundation detail
Raft Foundation of diameter : 120 metres and 6 metres depth.
955 number of cast in-situ pile of dia-1 metre and 52-56m height.
Steel : HYSD-500 of varying diameters.
• Type of Concrete : Self Compacting Concrete (SCC). • Grade of Concrete : C50R90
• Total Concrete consumed in Raft : 61,000 cu.m • Mix Design of C50
Construction Materials
Self Compacting Concrete
Properties :
• Filling ability (unconfined flowability) -The ability of SCC to flow into and fill
completely all spaces within the formwork, under its own weight.
• Easy Pumping.
• Pumping Capacity carried out at site – 1,000 cu.m per hour. • Concrete temperature maintained at <20° C.
• No bleeding and Segregation.
• Concrete placement was easier , faster and better at site. • Better Surface finish attained.
• Heavily reinforced concreting was possible at the site since due to the flowing ability of
the SCC.
Construction Materials
• Manufactured Sand (Used as an alternative to natural sand)
Increased durability of the concrete.
Increases workability.
Reduces construction defects.
Construction Materials - Admixtures used
• Triple Blend of OPC + PFA (Pulverised Fly Ash) + GGBS (Ground
Granulated Blast Furnace Slag )
This combination was used to ensure higher durability of the structure.
It helped to maintain the temperature rise due to heat of hydration, thus the concreting was carried out successfully at < 23°C .
Also since foundation structures are more prone to higher action to sulphate and chloride attack , this triple blend helped to resist the attacks when compared with normal ordinary concrete.
• Rheoplus 325 admixture by BASF
It delivered a new benchmark in concrete workability. It gave
Construction Materials - Admixtures used
• Slag Micro Powder
The project adopts the concrete with Baosteel's slag micro powder as the important raw material and admixture, which, combining with the scientific pouring method, can effectively avoid the quality problems such as structural crack etc.
To improve the compactness of the concrete and also to improve interface transition zone between the hydration products and aggregate which are benefit for the
Construction Materials - Admixtures used
High Performance Poly-carboxylate (HPCC) super-plasticizer
Wide adaptability.
High water reduction.
Good slump retention ability.
Good dispersibility and good cohesiveness.

Façade
More than 200,000 square metres of SentryGlas® interlayer is used in the double skin glass facades.
SentryGlas® interlayer are 5 times stronger and upto 100 times stiffer than conventional laminating material.
Curtain Wall A (Outer Glass Façade): 26 mm laminated glass assembly: 12 mm low-iron annealed glass +1.52 mm SentryGlas interlayer +12 mm low-iron annealed glass + low-e coating.
Curtain Wall B (Inner Glass Façade): 30 mm insulated glass assembly: 6 mm low-iron glass with +0.89mm SentryGlas interlayer + 6mm low-iron glass +12mm air void + 6mm low-iron glass + low-e coating.
Low-iron glass provides improved visual clarity by increasing light transmission and reducing the greenish tint in clear glass that is most apparent when viewed from the
Construction Materials
Low deflection, stronger glass before and after breakage.
Bolted and frameless glass.
Able to fulfil high architectural safety standards at reduced thickness as compared to monolithic glass.
Butt-jointed freedom
It retains its outstanding quality even after years of service.
Noise reduction and also safety and maintenance ease.
Special Features
• Hurricane resistant
• Bomb blast shatter resistant.
Applications
• Can also be used in structural glass flooring,stairs,walkways

Construction Materials-Sealants
XIAMETER alkoxy sealants are one-part, room-temperature vulcanizing (RTV) silicone sealants.
• Features And Benefits
Ready-to-use, one-component sealant
Can be used in geographic regions where use of oxime sealants is restricted
Low odor
• Typical Uses
General purpose sealing and bonding
Weather sealing
Space-filling rubber adhesive
Caulking and sealing window and door frames, siding
• Chemistry
Condensation cure occurs at room temperature upon exposure to moisture in air
Alkoxy cure chemistry produces a neutral byproduct, typically an alkyl or methyl alcohol
Construction Materials-Insulation Material
Armaflex Sheet and Roll Insulation is a flexible, elastomeric thermal insulation, black in color.
Uses :
• It was used to retard heat gain and control condensation drip from chilled water and
refrigeration systems.
• It efficiently reduced heat flow on hot systems.
Applications :
It is was particularly adaptable for insulating
ductwork, large piping and fittings
tanks
vessels
curved and irregular surfaces
Learnings
Benefits of using Self Compacting Concrete in Complex Structures.
Usage and importance of admixtures as Modern Construction Chemicals.
Use of alternative raw-materials and their advantages.
Importance and usage of Composite Structures in high-rises.
Recommendations
Eco-SCC is greener alternative to conventional self compacting concrete.
Use of nano-technology (CNT reinforced glass) in Façade.
Composite rebar (FRP) also is useful in weight sensitive were soils have poor load bearing properties, in seismically active zones or environmentally sensitive areas.
