Hyderabad, India – Maiwir Engineering, a steel-composite design, fabrication, and construction firm based in Hyderabad, has developed a patented construction technology that reduces construction costs by at least 20 percent and construction time by up to 60 percent. This is a huge relief for the Indian infrastructure industry, which has been under pressure from high input costs and cost escalation due to time overruns caused by a variety of domestic and global factors.

Recently, India’s premier defense research organization, the Defence Research Development Organization (DRDO), partnered with Maiwir Engineering as a structural steel design and build contractor to design and build a 7-story research facility at the Aeronautical Development Establishment Campus in Bengaluru, for the indigenous development of fifth-generation Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA). This structure was completed in a record 45 days, helping to realize the Prime Minister’s vision of ‘Atma-Nirbhar Bharat’.

Maiwir Engineering System is made up of horizontal members (Composite truss beams) and vertical sections (piers), which can be used separately or as part of the system depending on the standards required. It is a global, effective, and advanced solution that can serve the rapidly growing infrastructure segment such as high-rise buildings (commercial and residential), data centers, bridges, airports, seaports, hospitals, educational institutions, recreational centers, and renovation and conservative restoration. It is a viable alternative to traditional building methods because of its scalability, cost-effectiveness, and design efficiency.

It has a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Hyderabad with a total annual capacity of 75,000 MT and is expected to be increased to 1,20,000 MT per year. It also has a large number of manufacturing partners in India, the Middle East, and Europe to meet all global demands. The company provides a complete design-to-build model, including structural design analysis, drafting and detailing, peer review, BIM consulting, and erection services. Besides its wide range of advanced services, the company also provides detailed information on sustainable solutions for effective usage of materials for life enhancement, vibration isolation in seismic zones, and other crucial factors that help improve the quality and integrity of the structures.

“We are the only company in the country today that has changed the way we build infrastructure in a more sustainable and efficient way, from buildings to bridges, with our design-build concept in a short span of time,” elaborated Sarath Parupalli, Managing Director, Maiwir Engineering Pvt Ltd. “We are well equipped with wide-ranging expertise to undertake projects of all sizes with a single source responsibility, from design to manufacturing to execution under a single umbrella. Our high-quality and innovative design solutions help clients optimize their risks, cost overruns, claims and project timelines.”

He further added, “Our main area of focus in the near future is Highrise Buildings & Urbanization. Just like our mission to Mars, the mission to build can happen at a fraction of the cost with a local material & skill-developed team and we shall target and improve the Country’s GDP growth with infrastructure development and spending. Over the past 3 decades, there has been a jump shift in construction technology in India, especially in steel structures related to design concepts, erection methodology, manufacturing, section profiles, codal provisions, etc. Evolution of composite structures is one such revolution, which has gained significant importance and is geared to replace conventional construction techniques.”
