Should Rastra Blocks be the Future of Building Construction

Why Should Rastra blocks be the future of building construction,What monetary
benefits do they provide, What safety benefits do they provide and What time
management qualities do they provide?
Abstract:
In our modern society, we are now beginning to find alternative materials for construction as we are realizing that our ways of building are detrimental and destructive to our environment. Usually, materials that are manufactured for construction are made using lots of energy and other lower forms of materials. As we are now searching for more sustainable alternatives for our construction and production, one company has appeared in the market that seems to offer a solution to this modern problem of society. This company is Rastra. Rastra manufactures Rastra blocks which are made of 85% recycled materials mixed with special industrial concrete. In our society, there is a pressure on how we have done our construction since we are now beginning to realize the perils of not acknowledging the issues of the availability of natural resources, and the ever growing numbers of human population. In this light, this essay tackles the idea of using modern materials; specifically Rastra blocks to put a solution to this problem. Rastra blocks are marketed as a more environmental friendly material that is cost, energy, and time efficient. The use of Rastra blocks offers a way for our society to utilize environmental practices to create energy efficient buildings. Society can greatly benefit from its use in economic, social, environmental and cultural ways. Rastra blocks bring new insight to the techniques and practices that can be used to eliminate and reduce the impact of construction in the environment.
As we all know, production of construction materials are costly in terms of money and energy. Raw materials that are harvested from our natural resources undergo tremendous and delicate processes in order to achieve their current form. Most of the construction materials available in the market undergo such processes and are undeniably inefficient and unsustainable. Rastra blocks are marketed as construction grade material made from old coffee cups which are transferred and processed to be able to shape the blocks that will be used for building. It also boasts that a block’s production only averages at 1 kilowatt hour of electricity which is indeed energy efficient and inexpensive.
Essay
Rastra blocks can benefit our society by giving an alternative building material which can be used to create homes, buildings and other structures which can support life and our system’s institutions. Environmentally, the production of Rastra blocks are more efficient in terms of energy, which can greatly reduce the depletion of our natural resources as it mostly made out of recycled materials which are considered trash and unusable by most. More and more engineers and architects are recommending Rastra for construction because it shows minimal impact to our environment than other materials present in our modern era. It is essential to start producing buildings made with Rastra blocks so that society can secure not only an economic benefit, but environmental improvement as well. The innovation of construction s...
