    PHOTOGRAMMETRIC IN SURVEY :-

    At first photogrammetry is the science and technology of obtaining reliable information about physical objects and the environment through the process of recording, measuring and interpreting photographic images and patterns of electromagnetic radiant imagery and other phenomena.

    Here in surveying photogrammetric surveying or photogrammetry is the branch of the surveying in which maps are prepared from photo-graphs taken from ground or air stations. It is the making of precise measurements from photographs; the making of maps from photographs especially from aerial surveying. In this method, object are measured without being touched.

    -BROADLY PHOTOGRAMMETRY REQUIRES :-
    * Planning and taking photographs
    * Processing the photographs
    * Measuring the photographs and reducing the measurement to produce end results

    -FIELD APPLICATION OF PHOTOGRAMMETRY :-
    * Used to conduct topographical survey or engineering surveys
    * Suitable for mountainous and hilly terrain having little vegetation
    * Used for geological mapping which includes identification of land, forms, rock types and rock structures
    * Used in urban and regional planning applications

    Here I am discussing about High humidity & rain. Actually, the compressive strength of concrete reduces with the high relative humidity which results in durability problem. Due to higher moisture in the surface of concrete results a growth of mold and bacteria.

    Short answer : anywhere between 35 to 75 years but on an average - 60 years. The property still requires relevant and regular maintenance activities that add up to expenses. Moreover, after 90 years or 99 years, the flat would have to be vacated and disowned or the lease will have to be renewed accoRead more

    Short answer : anywhere between 35 to 75 years but on an average – 60 years. The property still requires relevant and regular maintenance activities that add up to expenses. Moreover, after 90 years or 99 years, the flat would have to be vacated and disowned or the lease will have to be renewed according to the new rates.

    Long answer: All large buildings are now designed using the probabilistic approach and with the help of a lot more quantized knowledge and stats, it’s tough to put a number on the design period. Moreover, the life of any building for that matter also depends on the kind of management done with it including inspections and maintenances. Something made for 70 years can fall in 15 years is proper management is not done. Also, if we fish to put in more money than planned we can actually carry the building forward to stand more than 70 years by repair, reconstruction, and retrofitting. But, coming back to our question, the best estimate would be 60 years and not more. Further, a lot also depends on natural events. Let alone regular monsoons, this year we’re having floods like those in 2013, so a lot of damage is expected in the real estate industry.

    1. No workers..
    2. Material Price Hike
    3. Material supply delay.
    4. Operator issue.
    5. Right staff is not available.
    6. Idle charges..
    7. New Projects are under hold.
    8. Old Projects are not getting to finish.

    Construction industry is facing huge difficulty due to COVID. lot of corporate companies are terminating engineers due to projects are under hold, projects are cancelled, etc.. even material price are getting increase 8 to 10%. Skilled workers are returned to native places. no right labour are available.. Crane operator are not available. idle charges are getting increased day by day… lot of companies may be closed their office due to covid if this will continue for another 3 months..

    The construction and the real estate industry are one of the major industries that have got a hit because of COVID-19. It actually falls in the top 5 industries that have got impacted the most due to the COVID-19.

    You and I both know that the industry even before COVID was in very bad shape. The virus has just made things worst. I personally always thought the real estate in such an investment where your money invested would never decline. The investment may be stagnant but not decline. But this COVID 19 impact has changed my opinion. I came across an article that said, “properties in premium locations of Mumbai, Maharashtra, and Delhi see a 10-15% decline in property prices.” I woke up to the most shocking news.

    The effect of COVID-19 on the construction industry has deepened the wounds. The industry was seeing some hope of recovery at the start of 2020, but before things could stabilize, COVID hit the industry very hard. It’s going to be difficult for the players in this industry. With so many banks getting caught for their NPA frauds, the banks are also going to be very careful while lending money.

    In short, to summarize, this industry that saw some rays of hope at the start of 2020 has all vanished. Builders are going to find it very difficult to complete their projects due to stall at bank lending hence the industry is going to take at least 2-3 other years to recover and bloom again as it did before.
