By integrating specially manufactured ACE tower cranes in its business model, Central Park Flower Valley Project has recorded fast construction, significantly reducing the overall project cost. <p></p><p> Prefabrication construction plays a vital role in building the infrastructure of India. Globally, this innovative concept has been significantly adopted by the construction industry, Burj Khalifa and Sydney Opera being the finest examples of world famous prefab structures. Action Construction Equipment (ACE), India's top crane brand, is riding the prefab construction wave in the country by manufacturing intelligent and cost-effective tower cranes, which are an integral requirement for safe, speedy and smart execution of housing and urban infrastructure projects. </p><p>The Central Park's Flower Valley Project is the finest example of prefab construction. It is one of the fastest growing ultra-luxury realty brands with an established presence in the national capital region of India. By integrating specially manufactured ACE tower cranes in its business model, they have recorded dramatic rise in the speed of construction and scale of developments, while reducing the overall project cost significantly. A fine blend of technologies tailored to maximise customer's convenience and optimise space utilisation makes these homes the smartest way of living. Through its unique range of precast intelligent homes, they are ready to establish a new benchmark in luxury living. </p><p>&quot;In prefab construction method, the building components are prefabricated offsite on an assembly line using advanced tools and equipment. Thereafter, they are transported to the building site where they are erected using specialised tower cranes,&quot; informs <span style="font-weight: bold;">Mayank Pundir, Country Head-Tower Cranes, ACE</span>. &quot;Following the suit, many major real estate players are also upgrading themselves towards using precast construction methods as it helps in expedited completion of massive residential projects with minimum labour and zero material waste,&quot; he adds.</p><p> <span style="font-weight: bold;">Fruitful association</span><br />To assemble its prefabricated concrete structures, Central Park joined hands with ACE. <span style="font-weight: bold;">Mahesh Pathak, DGM (P&amp;M), Flower Valley Project, </span>informs, &quot;As tower cranes do 90 per cent of the construction work, it is important to have tower cranes from a brand you can trust in terms of quality and aftersales service. Hence, ACE became an inevitable choice for us. The specialised TC 7054-16T travelling type tower crane with 62.5 m free-standing height and lifting capacity of 3T at 70 m radius was developed at the ACE's manufacturing facility at Faridabad. It was specially designed to provide the necessary lifting speed and strength. The most notable feature of the cranes designed for this project is their high capacity, which stands out in a country where lower capacity units constitute the vast majority of cranes population. The higher capacity cranes with higher safety standards are mandatorily required to handle heavy structures and providing high degree of precision in prefabricated buildings. To accommodate them, longer jibs are needed although Central Park plans to use it with 50 m.&quot; </p><p>Before delivery, ACE tested the special crane with boom, a configuration which delivers 6.7 T tip load, at 110 per cent capacity to ensure it performs flawlessly at 100 per cent capacity.</p><p>Pathak adds, &quot;The rugged and reliable ACE tower cranes were a boon for us. Through their consistent support and excellent customer service, they ensured that our iconic project gets kicked off successfully. With a dedicated 24x7 technical support from ACE, the project was completed ahead of deadline, in just nine months.&quot; </p><p>&quot;I believe that the coming decade belongs to prefabrication construction techniques. As per research report by IBEF, the real estate sector of India is expected to reach a market size of $1 trillion by 2030 from $120 billion in 2017 and contribute 13 per cent of the country's GDP by 2025. Besides, hospitality, retail and commercial real estate are also growing significantly, providing the much-needed boost to India's growing infrastructure needs. The government's ambitious project of building 20 million affordable houses and 98 smart cities by 2022 will see the construction and manufacturing industries confluence further to create an ecosystem for increased innovation and technology adoption. Thus, prefabrication will not be just a key enabler in mission &quot;Digital India&quot; but will also act as the key catalyst in the overall infrastructural development,&quot; concludes Pundir.</p><p></p>
