Department of Civil andInfrastructure Engineering
Announces a one-day Workshop
onPRECAST CONCRETE BUILDING –A CASE STUDY AT IIT JODHPUR
thon Friday, 24 November 2023,
at Seminar Room, Department of Metallurgicaland Materials Engineering, IIT Jodhpur(Hybrid mode)

ABOUT THIS WORKSHOPThe use of precast and prefabricated techniques inbuilding construction has gained growing
importance because of its benefits in terms ofquality, speed of construction, and costeffectiveness. This approach stands out fromconventional construction methods. The main
objective of this workshop is to instruct faculty
members, research scholars, students, and fieldengineers on the principles and methodologies ofprecast and prefabricated building construction. By
the end of this workshop, attendees are expected tohave a thorough grasp of the different aspects ofprecast building construction.
