Cyond is bringing engineering-led diagnostics, AI-assisted data and standardised repair systems to building preservation, after screening nearly 1.5 lakh buildings and finding water-related deterioration in 67 per cent. In this interaction with Construction World, Sunil Gorle, Founder, Cyond, discusses how building health insights can make maintenance more predictive.What business opportunity did Cyond identify in structural diagnostics and waterproofing?India has invested trillions of rupees in creating its built environment. Yet, many assets expected to last 70-100 years begin showing deteri..
Waterproofing buildings used to be an annual pre-monsoon affair but the evolution of real-estate development has changed that approach. In new developments, developers are weaving waterproofing solutions into both the design and construction phases, an approach that Nikhil Madan, Managing Director, Mahima Group, says, “is all about ensuring lasting durability [of the building] and keeping lifecycle risks including water seepage and extensive maintenance to a minimum.”Watertight by designAluminium formwork systems aren’t commonly thought of as a waterproofing tool but at the Mahima Group,..
