MILLION HOMES IN A YEAR
This is a unique Project meant for poor people living in thatched houses
in Rural Areas especially villages.
There are three parts to build this home. Each Part is independent but
at the end combined to form a home.
The first part belongs to civil Engineering.
The second part –automobile engineering.
The third part to body built furnishing and finally moved to the site for
assembling.
Part- A:
Site: Cluster of houses from 10 to 50 per group with self contained-
shopping complex, elementary school, common washing facility, Sewage
system, drinking water and Solar Power.
Foundation:
4- Concrete pillars about 2-feet height with embedded bolt provision per
house to mount the Factory Made Housing Unit.
Approximate dimension: 8 feet x 20 feet = 160 Square feet per house.
Part- B:
Factory Assembling: Auto Engineering
2-numbers Rails of 20 feet length and 2 numbers of 8 feet lengths to
form foundation frame for the house.
The Skelton frame work is done at this shop.
A = Kitchen. = 6 feet by 6 feet
B = Washing Area 2 feet by 4 feet.
C = Toilet cum Bath Room – 6 feet by 4 feet.
D – Living Area - 10 feet by 8 feet.
E – Sit out.

B. Adjoining the workshop furnishing shed completes the house by
assembling mail walls and Partition walls. Straw Bricks with concrete
mixture outer coating or bamboo mats with cement lamination used as
Furnishing Material: For roof curved asbestos sheet is used.
Collapsible beds to accommodate 6 persons. (In the night) In day these
will be used a benches.
Electricity:

II. In the night solar power or regular power.
Furnishing:
Main Room Built in TV
Cushion Berths as in 3- tier coaches for night and bench for day ( folded
From underneath the Chassis water pipe line, Sewage pipe and
Electricity connections are given
Fittings are done inside the houses by assembly shops ready to connect
to the common pipe lines.
Common pipe lines and Over head water storage tanks are built at the
site by foundation people.
Discarded bus chassis can also be used if available.

In choosing the material it is preferred to use locally available materials such
