|---|---|
| Description | इस्पात प्रवेश द्वार ढाँचा (Steel Portal Frame), utilizing लोहा [1] (Lohā, iron/steel), is a structural system prevalent in late 20th and 21st-century Indic architecture for large-span structures. This फ़ौलादी (Faulādī, steel) structure, often prefabricated, provides roofing for industrial buildings, community halls, and warehouses. The material, sourced from iron ore deposits across the Indian subcontinent, undergoes processing to achieve a yield strength of 250-350 MPa and a tensile strength of 400-550 MPa. Density is approximately 7.85 g/cm³ with a Young's Modulus of 200 GPa. While not traditionally found in ancient Indic heritage architecture, its modern application echoes the principles of creating large, open spaces seen in Mauryan and Gupta-era assembly halls. Conservation involves addressing corrosion, a key degradation factor. Restoration requires careful material matching to maintain structural integrity. The इस्पात प्रवेशिका संरचना (Ispāt Praveshika Sanrachna, steel entrance structure) demands regular inspection and protective coatings to ensure longevity. |
