BIS scraps new seismic zonation plan after govt flags construction cost surge
BIS scraps new seismic zonation plan after govt flags construction cost surge is drawing significant interest across the industry.
India's new earthquake building safety code has been withdrawn. The Bureau of Indian Standards reversed its decision after the Cabinet Secretariat intervened. Concerns were raised about increased construction costs and insufficient consultation with stakeholders. The previous 2016 standard is now back in effect. This move impacts real estate and infrastructure projects across the country.
Experts suggest this could influence future trends and innovation in the sector.
More updates are expected as the story develops.
