Corporator demands Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation lab for testing of building material

MUMBAI: Corporators have demanded that the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) should have its own laboratory to test building material used in the construction of structures in the city to ensure its quality.

On June 10, a five-storey Altaf Mansion had collapsed in Mahim killing 10 people. There were allegations of illegal constructions in the building; while doubts were also cast about the quality of construction material used in it.

On this backdrop, senior Shiv Sena corporator Anuradha Pednekar has demanded that the BMC should set up its own laboratory for the testing of building material used for construction or redevelopment of structures in the city.

In the notice of motion tabled before the civic general body meeting, Pednekar said, "Building collapse mishaps have been happening quite frequently in the city. At most of the times, the structural changes are found to be one of the main reasons for these mishaps. In addition to this, the material used for building construction is also found to be of substandard quality." The building material is tested in the presence of consultant, architect and civic engineers by the private company or in the government laboratory. Based on the reliability of its report, the building is constructed. However, none of them are held responsible if any of the building collapses, she added.

"To clear doubts about solidity of constructions, the BMC should set up its own laboratory for the testing of building material used for construction or redevelopment of these structures. The civic body should appoint expert officials in this lab and make mandatory for all to get tested all construction material from them," said Pednekar.

"The notice of motion would be tabled before the civic house and if approved would be sent to concerned authorities for further action," said a civic official.
