Date:Oct 12-14, 2011Venue:Bombay Exhibition Centre, MumbaiOrganiser:India Tech Foundation and Builders Association of IndiaA game changer for the a and infrastructure industries, the 13th of this series of expos, will be held in the commercial capital of the country.The infrastructure sector in India has seen an impressive transformation in the last few years.Today, infrastructure construction is the second  largest economic activity in India after agriculture, and is further growing at a rapid pace. Investment in construction accounts for nearly 11 percent of the country's Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and nearly 50 percent of its Gross Fixed Capital Formation (GFCF).Investment in construction accounts for 65 percent of the total investment in infrastructure; construction is expected to be the biggest beneficiary of the surge in infrastructure investment over the next five years. CONSTRU India 2011, which aims to tap into this enormous potential, will bring together top manufacturers, architects, construction engineers, contractors, consultants and others from the infrastructure sector in India as well as abroad. The expo,  to be organised by the India-Tech Foundation and Builders Association of India in Mumbai, will see over 150 exhibitors, spread over 5,000 sq m of exhibition space, showcasing the latest technologies, equipment and services. It will offer a great opportunity for doing business, building meaningful contacts and keeping up with the competition, among others. Significantly, CONSTRU India 2011 will focus on six major segments, including urban infrastructure and transportation, green and intelligent buildings, build with steel, construction engineering and design, construction and building materials, and electricals in building and construction. It will lay greater emphasis on 鈥楾ech Innovation for Green Building in the Infrastructure Sector鈥� by way of more environment-friendly and energy efficient construction materials.A look at the constituent segments of the upcoming show: Urban infrastructure and transportUrban transport is a key component of urban infrastructure. Proposals of seven metro rail projects by the Ministry of Urban Development in different regions of the country, with a total investment of Rs 43,360 crore, offer massive growth opportunities. Construction engineering and designConstruction engineering and design is needed to ensure a safe and stable construction environment, especially as it relates to rehabilitation projects. Build with steelAccording to the Investment Commission of India, the projected investment in steel over the next five years is around US$ 30 billion, translating into huge opportunities for the sector. Electricals in building and constructionElectricals are critical to any successful building project right from conception to day-to-day operations.There's a huge market for electricals, as per the Building Materials and Technology Promotion Council, investments to the tune of 陋 1,000 billion will be required in the building sector.Green and intelligent buildingsGreen buildings bring together techniques that ultimately reduce the environmental impact of construction. This section will showcase the progress achieved while assessing the opportunities and challenges facing the industry in terms of sustainable growth and development. Construction and building materialsIndia faces the challenge of building a great deal of infrastructure efficiently and effectively. Geo-synthetic products such as geo-grids, geo-textiles, geo-nets, geo-membranes serve as viable construction engineering materials with significant economic and social benefits.
