Extending the Life of Japanese Apartments to 200 yearsAn ‘all-stainless-steel’ piping system aims to extend the life of residential high-risesThe Japanese Stainless SteelAssociation (JSSA) has entered into a3-year program designed to expand theuse of long-lasting nickel-containingstainless steel in residential high-risepiping systems throughout the country.The advantage of the all-stainless-steelpiping system, as it’s called, is that theplumbing systems in high-rise buildingswill last longer and require fewer repairs,thanks to the durability and corrosionresistanceof stainless steel.With Dr. Kyosuke Sakaue, Professor ofMeiji University as a leader of the JSSAteam, both the Nickel Institute and theJapan Valve Manufacturers’ Associationare participants in the governmentsubsidizedproject, which focuses onwater supply and drainage pipes, as wellas fire-fighting equipment, in collectivehousing.JSSA proposed this program in responseto a report tabled in May 2007 by theHousing and Land InvestigationCommittee of the then-governing LiberalDemocratic Party of Japan.According to the report, titled 200-YearHousing Vision, the average apartmentbuilding in Japan lasts only 30 years,compared with 55 years for Americanhomes and 77 for English ones. The shortlifespan is an economic burden forresidents as well as a hindrance toconservation efforts.The report urges the housing industry toadopt, as its goal, an average lifespanfor all residential housing (including highrisebuildings) of 200 years. Future highriseswill be characterized by energyconservation, harmony with thesurrounding environment, earthquakeresistance, and regular and easymaintenance.Most Japanese housing is multi-unit,consisting of both shared and privatespaces. The report suggests that pipingsystems in shared areas be consideredpart of the whole “skeleton” of theresidential structure. This concept callsfor the installation of durable, stainlesssteel valves, reducing the need for repairsThe advantage of the “total piping system,” as it’s called, is that the plumbing systems inhigh-rise buildings will last longer and require fewer repairs.and expanding the life of the entire pipingsystem.Another advantage to longer-lastinghousing will be a reduction in carbondioxide emissions. Dismantling andrebuilding structures call for the productionand transportation of pipes, valves andother materials, which in turn causescarbon dioxide emissions. The shift towarddurable piping, and away from continuousreplacement, will inevitably create aSTAINLESS INDIA / VOL. 13, NO.2/ 2reduction in those emissions, as well asin overall energy consumption.These and other benefits show how thecountry’s 200-Year Housing project is inkeeping with the JSSA’s goal ofdeveloping demand for stainless steelproducts while contributing toenvironmental sustainability.Source: Nickel Magazine, March 2008
Stainless Steel Water Tank from the House of Sreevatsa StainlessEASY Stainless Steel Water Tanks aremade from 304 grade stainless steel.Easy Tank’s innovative designs havebrought the production cost down whilstretaining a high degree of strength andaesthetic appeal. The cost is only marginallymore than a normal steel tank butprovides all the benefits of a significantlymore durable and cleaner material.All water tanks will heat the water insideif placed in direct sunlight. Because of thehigh reflectivity of the stainless steel, theamount of heat retained is significantlyless in stainless steel tanks than othertanks. Stainless steel is not subject todegradation upon long term exposure tosunlight as are plastic tanks. Not tomention the quality of the water stored inplastic tanks.Stainless steel does not absorbpollutants, chemical, pesticides or othercontaminants into its surface. If any ofthese substances find their way into aEASY Water Tank, just wash it out of thetank and re-fill. Depending on thecontaminant, a plastic or plastic lined tankmay have to be professionally cleaned orin a worst case, thrown away.EASY tanks are available in capacities of500/1000/1500/2000 and 2500 litres. Alltanks are fabricated out of SS AISI 30400grade. Easy tanks come with Inlet,Outlet, Drainage and Air vent Fittings.Details of ManufacturerCC Sampath,M/s Sreevatsa Stainless Steel Fabricators(P) Ltd, ”Sri Malola”, 174 G HabibullahRoad, T.Nagar, Chennai - 600 017Tel :+91-44-2814 3552, 4350 2454Fax : +91-44-2252 3489, 2814 3552Email : sreevatsa.stainless@gmail.comWeb : http://www.sreevatsastainless.comStainless Steel Hold-fastIntelloTECH Hold-fast Frame Clamps instainless steel 304 are specially designedto give a lifetime of valuable support to doorand window frames.Mild steel hold-fast frame clampsembedded in concrete tend to corrodeafter sometime. When they get corroded,corrosion products will occupy 5-6 timesthe volume of the original corroded metal.This excess volume creates cracks in theconcrete. Hence the grip is lost and door/ window frames do not get any moresupport. The door locks go out ofalignment and in rainy seasons, the doorsswell and get jammed.Stainless steel does not corrode and ishighly compatible with the chemicals inthe concrete. Hence, stainless steelhold-fast frame clamps can be expectedto easily give a life of 100 years.In addition, the IntelloTECH designrestricts movement in all directions towithstand contraction and expansion dueto varying climatic conditions (rainyseason) leaving door and windows intact.STAINLESS INDIA / VOL. 13, NO.2/ 3This design eliminates the need forrepeated trimming of doors / windows toprevent jamming. The alignment of doorhandles to the frame remains perfect allthrough.Contact: M/s Intellotech Industries,C-37/2, Wazirpur Industrial Area,Delhi – 110 052,Telefax: 011-4247 3692Email: intellotech@touchtelindia.netWeb : www.chillyintellotech.com
