In India, large-scale construction of infrastructure projects is taking place, as a huge amount of government spending is on infrastructural projects. Thus, construction chemicals play an important role in the actual construction activity. Multiple types of chemicals are used in infrastructure projects, such as concrete admixtures, polymer bonding agents, mold-releasing agents, floor hardeners, etc.
The various construction chemicals being used in infrastructure projects have various benefits that make the projects long-lasting. Below are the benefits of construction chemicals in infrastructure projects:
- Construction chemicals like concrete admixtures increase the concrete's strength, which helps make the structure strong and efficient.
- With the help of construction chemicals, the gaps or cracks that develop in the structures can be filled with sealants.
- The floor hardeners help in improving the strength & durability of the floor, which helps in making the structure strong and efficient.
- The structures require less repairing and maintenance work in case construction chemicals are used in them.
- The structure becomes long-lasting when construction chemicals are used in the structure.
Thus, for the improvement of the structure, construction chemicals play a very important role, without which the structures cannot last for a longer duration,, and also maintenance work cannot be done without the use of construction chemicals.
Revolution in infrastructural projects:
Construction chemicals play a key role and are among the essential materials being used in construction projects. The chemicals help in improving the life span, making the structures long-lasting, and also in maintaining the quality of the structures. The construction chemicals have created a revolution in the infrastructure projects industry due to their multiple benefits. These days in order to build a strong structure it is necessary to make use of construction chemicals as without which the structures cannot be made long lasting.
The structures cannot withstand the load of heavy traffic without the use of construction chemicals. The structure's maintenance also requires chemicals to make it long-lasting. The construction chemicals market is currently at 3.30 billion dollars in India which is continuously increasing and has a vast potential to grow in the current market scenario. The construction chemicals have created a revolution in the infrastructure industry as the structures can be made of a better quality and have a longer shelf life.
Looking at the benefit in financial terms, if infrastructure projects like concrete roads, bridges, highways, and flyovers aren’t built of better quality then the government penalizes the construction contractor. Thus, in that case, the use of construction chemicals plays a major role in helping the contractors or the infrastructure companies build better structures and avoid getting penalized.
Conclusion:
Thus, the use of construction chemicals is an essential component of the construction materials being used in infrastructure projects. Also, the use of chemicals in the infrastructure sector has revolutionized the sector, as better quality structures can be made with the use of chemicals. The structures can be long-lasting and better strength can be achieved with the help of construction chemicals.
