Challenges for NBC implementationLSMC

Professionalism & ethics still lagging among designers.

Majority of design works are done by less competent/less

qualified/ technicians/........... less accountable !q

Local masons/contractors are still lagging in knowledge

on earthquake resistance construction of buildingson earthquake resistance construction of buildings.

Untrained masons working in low cost.

Low Quality of construction works/materials

Strengthening & Retrofitting of existing unsafe buildings

Addition of stories in existing old buildings

LSMC

Challenges for NBC implementationLSMC

Negligence & unwillingness of house owners to apply g g & g pp y

earthquake Safe techniques fearing of cost increment.

Negligence knowingly/unknowingly about the importance of

technical supervision & quality of construction workstechnical supervision & quality of construction works

Need of Strong & effective Field monitoring/ inspectionNeed of Strong & effective Field monitoring/ inspection

mechanism but we have less technical manpower
