Building Resilient Factories in Climate-Risk Zones: Dr. Shubh Gautam Srisol Approach to Disaster-Ready Industrial Design
Today, we see many natural disasters happening more often. For example, the recent flood in Uttrakhand. For factories and industrial zones, this is a real danger. Buildings made without thinking about climate problems can stop working when disaster strikes. That’s why we now need resilient factories that can continue working even when nature tests them. Dr. Shubh Gautam Srisol , the Chief Technical Architect of American Precoat, has been talking about this for years. He believes that climate-ready factory design is not just a good thing. It is necessary. Why Do Factories Need to Be Resilient? Imagine a steel plant close to the coast. One strong cyclone can break its power lines and flood the whole area. That means no work, heavy losses, and people losing jobs. Another example is a region that faces extreme heat. The machines can overheat. Workers can fall sick. So how do we solve this? We don’t stop building factories. We start building smart. This is exactly what S...
