CDCL background

a. Vision:

To trigger modernization and mechanization of nascent local construction industry.

b. Mission: To take lead role in introducing appropriate Construction technology and machinery. As a

part of this , CDCL will maintain or establish equipment bank.

To venture into technology intensive Construction and help to build capacity of local

construction industry through technical collaborations.

Vision & Mission of CDCL

i. To manage construction machinery resources and assets of the Government efficiently, productively & transparently and to provide optimum services thereof.

ii. To carry on any business or activity related to outsourcing of machinery & repair

support services, production & fabrications, trading & contractual works, quarrying &

crushing, hauling and transportation works, and construction development

iii. To spearhead mechanization process and promote quality of infrastructure works in the

country through introduction of appropriate technology and cost effective services for the

benefit of the construction industry in particular.

iv. To venture into full scale technology intensive construction heavy activities such as

participating in mega hydropower projects, tunneling, bridges, airport and road construction

projects in the near future.

Objectives of CDCL

Innovation, a broad social and economic activity within emerging societies, transcends any specific

technology, even if revolutionary, and is tied to attitudes and behaviors oriented towards the exploitation of

change by adding value.

The solution-space for innovation for sustainability is characterized by three dimensions:

the entire lifespan of a product;

the entire socio-technique network of which a particular plant is part of, or from which a particular product

emerges;

stakeholders and decision processes, including business organizations and strategies; and public

institutions, policy and regulatory frameworks.

Definition

Automation vs. Mechanization

Before purchasing equipment, growers must decide what level of automation is suitable as

per the Bhutanese scenario.

Mechanization- the replacement of a human task with a machine.

Automation - involves the entire process, including bringing material to and from the

mechanized equipment.

It normally involves integrating several operations and ensuring that the different pieces of

equipment talk to one another to ensure smooth operation .

CASE STUDY

8


Over half of the world’s infrastructure investment is now taking place in

emerging economies, where sales of construction equipment have risen more

than fivefold since 2000.

In total, emerging economies are likely to spend an estimated $1.2 trillion on

roads, railways, electricity, telecommunications and other projects, equivalent to

6% of their combined GDPs — twice the average infrastructure- investment

ratio in developed economies.

The World Bank estimates that a 1% increase in a country’s infrastructure stock is associated with a 1% increase in the level of GDP.

A 1% rise in income per head leads to a 0.5% increase in demand. Putting this together, energy demand may have to surge by 140% in China and by 80% in India over the next decade.

A 1% increase in income per person leads to a 1.4% increase in the number of passengers travelling by air, so the number of air passengers could jump by more than 350% in China and by 200% in India over the next decade.

EQUIPMENT SELECTION CRITERIA

Increased demand of equipment with distinctive features are driving the stationary concrete pumping and concrete boom pumps sector in emerging economies.

Specialization is being characterized in utilization of concrete pumps among contractors both for high end and real estate projects.

The distinction is essentially in terms of usage of equipment with enhanced concrete pumping pressure, better reach and rugged features to counter abrasion.

Mobile vs. Static Crushers: The Better Deal

• As per the global trend, there is an

increased acceptance of mobile crushers

• They have greater mobility, and

compactness coupled with host of

other benefits.

• Nonetheless, static crushers are best

equipped for high capacity mining

activities.

12


The demand choice for a Track mounted mobile crusher :

Rapidly rising cost of quarry operation

Led by lack of qualified manpower to operate the plants.

65-70% of the crushing aggregate market is dominated by

Track Mounted mobile plants.

Compact equipment which can move from site to site at a rapid

pace with minimal logistical hassles.

Mobile vs. Static Crushers: Comparison

13


Being mobile, compact and self-driven, enables the tracked units to

operate close to the quarry site, thereby curtailing the use of large

conveyors belts, in turn offsetting recurring operating maintenance costs.

The tracked equipment can be commissioned and dismantled in a day

or a week time at the outmost, thereby keeping residual losses at bare

minimal, as compared to a static plant.”

Construction Sector: Current Scenario & Emerging Trends

Crusher manufacturers are placing products

with improved features for higher

productivity coupled with low operating

costs for the aggregate industry.

Significant improvements like adding

automated features in the machines,

dovetailed by making the equipment rugged

for higher productivity and lower

maintenance & cut down on manual

operations which in turn will bring down

operation costs to a good extent, as skilled

manpower is getting costly to afford by

most of the aggregate producers.

15


Here, the selection of equipment is based on need in order to save time and increase productivity with quality. A road-broom, batching plant, hauling trucks, paving equipment and a tandem roller are engaged in sequence. By doing so, a lot time is saved, productivity/output is optimized and quality is assured.

Advantages of Mechanization (Global Scenario) Cost savings leads to improve product quality and time saving.

Large scale automation and integration of modern manufacturing system

Computer control technologies and communication network.

Trouble free operations

Advantages of Mechanization (Bhutanese Scenario)

Reduction of imported laborers

Job opportunity for national skilled workers

17

Conclusion

Bhutan cannot remain isolated and shy away from the use of available technology and has to find out solution by proper selection of the technology in Bhutanese scenario.

The Mechanization through improved technology would bring a remarkable change to the construction sector in the kingdom in the sense that it will be a milestone in Bhutan’s construction industry’s accession to the development of technology and professionalism in construction, through successful show casing by CDCL.
