building & construction
While the modules are being manufactured in factories, site development can take place concurrently. Maintaining the required level of precision and quality in the manufacturing process is a key critical challenge.

Research and design methodology
The research and design methodology included the following stages: 1. Study of the current products for portable/temporary shelters listing their advantages/ disadvantages. 2. Study of the materials currently used in temporary/portable structures 3. Study of the usage of existing temporary shelters – offices, workspaces, living accommodation, disaster shelters, healthecare facilities, tourist huts. 4. Product plan – derived from the conclusion of the above study. 5. Concept generation – large number of preliminary ideas. 6. Development of the most promising ideas into product ideas – concept sketches, renderings, dimensional drawings. 7. 3D modelling – to check possibilities for assembly, manufacturing, fitting, etc. 8. Validation of design for load bearing, structural stability, etc. 9. Final designs – scale models, design documentation. These were followed by a collaborative phase with manufacturing companies:

played a crucial role by providing meaningful feedback and challenging the project team to raise the level of innovation, which was highly appreciated. The following product (housing) ideas were generated and developed in detail. Scaled models were produced for presentation and validation purposes. • Anganwadi housing • Beach tourist huts • Frangible cabins for housing instrumentation near airport runways • Public toilet clusters

Concepts for Anganwadi

Additional advantages of modular construction
Modular construction offers a number of additional advantages: - Speed: from start to finish, a modular structure/building is erected in a fraction of the time required for the traditional onsite building method. - Cost efficiency: modular components, offer cost efficiencies resulting from the bulk purchase of materials and employment of mass manufacturing techniques. This also result in transportation efficiencies and therefore further lower cost benefits. - Portability: modular buildings/structures can be relocated as needed, especially for use as storage spaces, shelters, disaster relief camps, temporary hospitals/clinics, kiosks and project site offices and structures for tourism and seasonal events like festivals, etc. Considering the above, modular construction was identified as the strategic design feature, around which a research and design methodology was evolved. Another strategic feature was the collaboration with manufacturing and user agencies from the start of the project to get the right feedback, improve the acceptance of the final product and ensure its implementation.
