NEW DELHI: The construction committee of Ram Temple at Ayodhya is set to approve the building technique to be used for the project soon for quick commencement of the work. The Ram Temple is scheduled for completion in 2023. Sources said the committee under Nripendra Misra, former principal secretary to PM Narendra Modi, will choose between two options suggested by a panel of experts from top technical institutions.
The panel of experts, led by professor V S Raju, former director of IIT, Delhi, is learnt to have recommended two options. One is for use of vibro stone columns to support rafts on which stones can be placed. Vibro stone columns or aggregate piers are an array of crushed stone pillars placed with a vibrating tool into the soil below a proposed structure. This method of ground improvement is also called vibro replacement.
