 Ferron panels with LGS: a composite construction
Salient features

 Reduction in dead load (about 60%) Conventional LGS +Ferron

Slab 350 Kg/ Sqm 125 Kg/Sqm
 Saving in steel and other materials
Wall 300 Kg/ Sqm 100 Kg/Sqm
 Reduction in seismic forces
Conventional LGS +Ferron
RCC
 Speed of construction
G+1 6 weeks per 1 week per
floor floor

 Integral action (box like action) Conventional LGS +Ferron

RCC
 Mitigation of local elastic instability G+1 Infill Masonry: Infill Ferron panels:
Non-structural shear wall behavior

 Advantages of cavity wall

 Blast resistance Under research at MIT-WPU

Advantages

 Up to 60 % saving in material cost

 Up to 30 % saving in steel
 Acts as box structure in earthquake
 Speedy construction
 Light weight construction
