Robo sand should be used for construction
RoboSand --The perfect substitute for river sand
Eco-friendly products whose usage helps conserve nature by preventing depletion of ground water levels.
RoboSand's unique properties - cubicle particle shape, consistent gradation and zero impurities - are the reasons that structural consultants and concrete technologists prefer to use our products.
The Andhra Pradesh Government is encouraging the use of Robo sand, a natural sand substitute for construction purpose.As the Government is in the process of streamlining sand quarrying and prevent its indiscriminate use, the promotion will overcome the shortage of sand supply impacting the construction sector in the State. In a meeting of owners of stone crushing firms, the Minister has said that the Government is keen to encourage the use of Robo sand as a substitute to natural sand.Robo sand is manufactured in the stone quarries. It is a substitute for the river sand used in construction. Manufacturers have claimed that it is better than the river sand.According to estimates, the State requires about 2 crore cubic meters of sand per anum for the construction activity. Several large crushing units are needed to be installed to provide the supply of sand for the construction activities in the state.

M-sand an alternate of river sand for construction
M-Sand is manufactured sand, obtained from specific hard rock (granite) using the state-of-the-art International technology. Its numerous advantages over river sand have made it a favorite and a "Must-to-Use" with quality conscious builders.
Builders of Kochi are discouraging the use of river sand and are maximizing the use of m-sand for constru...ctions .The builders association has directed all the construction in Kochi to be done with the help of m-sand, and they are limiting the use of river sand only for plastering.The builders took the decision as the price of river sand is skyrocketing and now it stands at Rs 60 for one cubic feet.This decision was taken as the Supreme Court has directed to limit the use of river sand for the construction purpose and several state governments have restricted the excavation of river sand.The builders Association of Kerala are also encouraging the use of m-sand for any kind of construction and even for plastering purpose.

Training The Brain Of An Entrepreneur
Barbara Sahakian was curious. It was the middle 2000s and Sahakian, a professor of clinical neuropsychology at the University of Cambridge in England, got interested in high risk behavior.
Historically, scientists thought of risky behavior as a negative, associated with drug abuse, sexual promiscuity, even mania, but entrepreneurship threw a wrench in those works. Starting a new company requires a healthy tolerance for risk. It means betting resources and reputation on significant unknowns. “Entrepreneurs seem to represent a high-adaptive form of risk-taking behavior,” says Sahakian, “they can turn stressful decision-making into positive outcomes.”
To figure out what was going on, Sahakian assembled a collection of thirty-five businessmen. All were in their early fifties, all scored in similar percentiles on intelligence tests. But half of this group were entrepreneurial: having started at least two companies. The other half had not.
She gave her subjects two psychological assessments. The first measured what is called “cold decision making,” a kind of logical choosing where data is king and feelings play no part. The second measured “hot decision-making,” or decision-making in the face of risk, where emotions always play a significant factor.
“When a manager is designing a new company branch,” says Sahakian, “that’s cold decision making. But when a VC has to pull the trigger on a multi-billion dollar investment. When it’s go or no time—that’s a hot, emotional decision.”
While both groups of test subjects scored in the exact same percentile for cold decision making, when it came to hot processes, the results couldn’t be more different. The managers were conservative. It was a betting game, and their wagers were low. But entrepreneurs showed a significant inclination for the big bet. Which, for a group of 51 year-olds, was pretty unusual.
“As we get older,” says Sahakian, “we loose our predilection for risk—this is very well established. But entrepreneurs don’t go this route. They make risky decisions like they were still 17-27 years old.”
In today’s world, where most every businessman needs a bit of the entrepreneurial spirit to thrive (some would say to survive), this raises the question of whether we can train the brain to be less risk adverse in the face of hot decisions.
Essentially, is it possible to turn middle managers into innovators.
“It’s a big question,” says Sahakian, “but no one is yet certain.” Risk taking is most frequently associated with the neurochemical dopamine, so this does suggest pharmacological interventions might be possible. That said, the Parkinson’s drug L-Dopa (which raises dopamine levels) had the unintended consequence of turning patients into gambling addicts so dopamine alone may be the wrong stimulus.
An even bigger problem is that we don’t just want to take more risk when making hot decision, we want to make better hot decisions as well.
This is where entrepreneurs—or, more specifically, the scientists who study entrepreneurs—might want to investigate the world of action and adventure sports.
Over the past ten years, the level of danger has risen to such an extent in sports like big wave surfing, big mountain skiing, wingsuit flying, etc., that advanced practitioners often have to make very hot—my life depends upon it—decisions with zero margin for error. As action and adventure sports have become ridiculously popular over this same period, the number of people surviving these decisions has sky-rocketed as well. This bespeaks a tantalizing possibility: that training better hot decision-making is within the realm of possibility. So while it’s not yet known if these lessons can be applied to business, the history of high adrenaline say that there’s more research to be done.

New affordable housing Policy will be finalized by the Government
The government has planned to frame new affordable housing policy to boost up the weakening real estate sector in India.
In an announcement by the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation, it is confirmed that that the government is in the process of finalizing such a policy in two months.
The government is already trying to promote the housing scheme for all the residents in India. The first step was taken in the Budget, by allowing the external commercial borrowing (ECB) for low cost houses in India.
The builders have not shown any major interest in constructing the affordable housing segment because of the low margins.
According to sources the new policy will raise the floor space index to compensate developers for high cost of land and also ease density norms. It will give capital and interest subsidy to the developers. Even government land would be auctioned on the basis of which builders can build maximum number of low cost houses.
The ministry has also built an internal committee to fast track the process of granting approvals of housing projects in a bid to reduce costs by 25-40 percent.
