In the heart of Chellanam Panchayath, nestled along the Pandikudy Chellanam Road, stands a remarkable residential building—Mr. N. A. Danial’s vision was brought to life by the skilled hands of KJASons®.
With Building Number 287 and Inward Number 1 in the annals of Chellanam Panchayath, this construction project showcases precision, durability, and meticulous attention to detail.
Construction and Specifications
Foundation and Ground Level
The foundation of this edifice is a testament to structural integrity. Constructed with an RCC Raft and Beam, it rests upon a PCC (Plain Cement Concrete) base, measuring 15 cm thick, laid over a 10 cm thick bed of river sand. The ground level is thoughtfully elevated, positioning the structure 15 cm above the road level, ensuring both stability and aesthetic appeal.
Basement and Lintel
The basement boasts a Random Rubble design, with a 1:5 mix ratio, rising to a height of 60 cm from the ground level. To fortify this foundation further, an RCC lintel, 10 cm thick, encircles the basement, enhancing its structural robustness.
Superstructure and Wall Finish
The superstructure is composed of country-burnt bricks, set in a 1:6 cement mixture on both the ground and first floors. Wall plastering follows, with a 1:4 cement mix, extending 15 cm in thickness on both the interior and exterior walls, creating a seamless, polished appearance.
Stairs and Handrails
RCC stairs, constructed with a 1:2:4 cement-to-sand-to-stone ratio and 20 mm broken stones, grace the drawing-room area. These stairs are adorned with stainless steel handrails, polished to perfection, ensuring safety and elegance.
Flooring and Skirting
Flooring within the building is a testament to luxury and practicality, featuring granite slabs, 20 mm thick, set on a foundation of PCC 1:3:6, reinforced with 40 mm broken stones and a cement slurry. The staircase, meanwhile, enjoys a finishing touch of vitrified tiles, 15 mm thick, in a 1:4 cement mix. Skirtings, a key detail, are fashioned with vitrified tiles, extending to a height of 10 cm.
Interior and Exterior Finishes
The interior walls radiate with refinement, boasting two coats of interior emulsion paint over a base of interior primer, all skillfully enhanced with two coats of wall putty. Externally, the walls are a canvas for two coats of exterior emulsion paint, adorning an exterior primer coat.
Compound Wall and Arch
The compound wall, an integral part of this project, is constructed with PCC blocks in a 1:5 cement mixture and adorned with a 15 mm thick layer of plaster at 1:4. Pillars within the compound wall are bridged with an elegant inverted arch. To complete the picture, the entire compound wall receives two coats of exterior emulsion paint over an initial coat of exterior primer.
Conclusion
Mr. N. A. Danial’s residential building, brought to fruition by KJASons®, stands as a remarkable testament to construction excellence.
This edifice harmoniously combines durability, aesthetics, and modern design principles, resulting in a residence that encapsulates both functionality and elegance. For inquiries regarding costing and further details, please do not hesitate to contact us.
