The Pods are manufactured offsite. A steel skeletal

frame makes the structure of the pod. The gaps of the
structure are filled with insulation and waterproofing
boards. Plumbing and Electrical pipes are installed. The
interior of the pod is then tiled and equipped with
bathroom amenities. The completed pod is then packed
to be transported to site where it is either lifted by
crane or on roller beds to the specified location. The
site is inspected with detail for any residue or levelling
of the land. The pod is placed in place and bolted with
steel screws and Adhesive on the floor slab. SUBMITTED BY:

It was the world's first and largest-span space-frame
structure.
The Permanent Exhibition Complex is designed to form the
focus of 130 acres of Exhibition ground designed by Raj
Rewal in New Delhi. The design was evolved to meet the
constraints of time, availability of materials and labor, but
above all, to reflect symbolically and technologically, India's
