ALIGARH July 29: The developmental work at the Aligarh Muslim University Murshidabad Centre received a big push as a concrete step was taken forward regarding the construction of temporary and permanent building at the site of the Centre in Murshidabad, West Bengal. A consultative meeting with the officials of the Hindustan Steelworks Construction Limited (HSCL), Kolkata, presided over by the AMU Vice Chancellor, Prof. P. K. Abdul Azis, was held today.
A host of financial and technical aspects of the proposal submitted by HSCL pertaining to the construction work at the AMU Murshidabad Centre was discussed in the meeting.
Regarding the construction of temporary structure, the HSCL proposed that the 5009m2 land area will be used for the temporary structure while 50,000m2 area will be raised up to 1.5 meter using fly ask instead of earth due to the cost implications. The boundary walls have been taken into consideration in the estimate with RCC make while a precast posts with barbed wire fencing have been suggested in the proposal.
The construction giant has suggested the road level be 1.5m higher than the ground level while paver blocks have been taken in estimate with adequate base course.
The culvert of the temporary building has yet to be estimated. However, the company has plans for the Soak Pit/Septic Tank and solar panels to be installed after the cost analysis for lighting the campus.
Similarly, the various specifications of permanent buildings were also discussed in the meeting. With almost similar specifications suggested for the temporary buildings, deliberations were made regarding the source of water supply and its distribution to the buildings, lawns and other facilities in the campus, water and sewage treatment plants and underground internal and external electrification.
With an aim to construct state-of-the-art buildings for the Law and Management Schools, the permanent buildings were decided to be provided with all facilities like digital entry points, modern security system, smart classrooms, modern libraries, seminars, lecture theatres, teachers’ cubicles and offices networked and connected with a high speed internet connectivity.
It was decided in the meeting that all the temporary buildings in the campus be provided only with simple specifications to minimize the cost of construction. However it was insisted that estimate should include the extensive planning considering various facilities like water supply, sewage disposal, internal and external electrification, lighting, furniture, roads and pathways, boundary walls, security cabins, gates etc to make the buildings in ready to use condition.
The meeting was attended by the officiating Registrar and OSD (Development), Prof. Akhtar Haseeb, Finance Officer, Mrs. Yasmin Jalal, Controller of Examination, Prof. Pervez Mustajab, Member, Sub-committee of the Building Committee, Department of Civil Engineering, Prof. Razaullah Khan, Media Advisor, Prof. N.
